Random Pimping

I was just watching Uninhabited Planet Survive again, and remembered how much I love that series. The characters seem so different at the beginning from how they turn out in the end, and yet they are so familiar. I remember how much I underestimated Bell, how much I hated Howard, how I thought Sharla was so useless, how Kaoru was always SO damn quiet... And Luna, Menori, and Shingo seemed so typical of their character types.

I love them all. Such wonderful characters, who I got to know so well... It's great to revisit.

I want to further urge anyone who might be the slightest bit curious to watch at least the first episode. If you stick with the series, you won't be sorry.

Actually, I think Pokémon would be closer to having a talking robot cat than Digimon is. But while I might not be horribly impressed by Chako, she's far from ruining the series for me.

I don't mind character types as long as they don't get too predictable - it's okay if I know which one will be saving the world in episode 51 as long as they surprise on the way there. And I certainly won't demand anything with too elaborate plots right now, as I'm currently trying to figure out whether I like Digimon Savers being so compactly written or not.
