First of all, yes, this release is a bootleg. The "company," Alliance Entertainment, overlayed the American dub track with Japanese video (you can tell because the footage is missing the full episode titles in favor of "homemade" titles, the analyzer text is Japanese, etc.). Nonetheless, they did a great job putting it together. Both video and audio are crisp and clear. The only down side is the episode menu doesn't have the names of the episodes.

So yes, this is a bootleg, but a darn fine one. If Disney doesn't want to release Digimon on DVD, then fine. I'll give my money to someone who does.

The second Digimon series is a direct continuation of the first one. Three years later, with most of the original DigiDestined now in high school at age fourteen, the Digital World was supposedly secure and peaceful. However, a new evil has appeared in the form of the Digimon Emperor who as opposed to previous enemies is a human just like the DigiDestined. The Digimon Emperor has been enslaving Digimon with Black Rings and Control Spires and has somehow made regular Digivolution impossible. However, five set Digi-Eggs with engraved emblems have been appointed to three new DigiDestined along with T. K and Kari. This new evolutionary process, dubbed Armor Digivolution, helps the new DigiDestined to defeat evil lurking in the Digital World.
The collector's case is identical to season 1. The video and audio is stellar like the first season. If you have the first season, then you have to make sure you get the 2nd one as well.

Product ordered arrived in a timely manner. All discs except the next to the last dvd worked fine. The next to the last dvd in the set skipped, scrambled, and froze, making it unviewable. While considering reordering Digimon's Season 2 Box Set, when I do, I make sure and keep my receipt so as to have some recourse if the ordered product is not in working condition.

I ordered season 1 and was stunned with great graphics and audio. Season 2, however, did not deliver. The audio seems to crackle like a cheap recording... I wish I hadn't bought it..

I love digimon and I really don't care that this is a bootleg. I LOVE DIGIMON, that said I was very impressed by the season 1 boxset, but this one doesn't deliver in the audio department. It sounds like an old mono radio, it's really taking me out of the show. Alas, it is digimon, and I LOVE DIGIMON. Sorry, can't say that enough.

I am willing to admit, that after seeing the quality of the Season 1 box set, despite numerous people on the internet saying that these are bootlegs, I just couldn't bring myself to believing them, but after buying the Season 2 box set I believe without any doubt. I tested all the discs and they all work, at the very least. I haven't watched all of the episodes yet on the discs, instead I just watched a few minutes of randomly selected episodes on each disc.

The sound quality seemed pretty bad for most of the episodes--my VHS copy of the first episodes have better sound quality than these discs do--but it seems that there are a few episodes in this box set that seem to have normal quality audio. What I really don't understand is that if they have the theme song playing at such a high quality on the discs' home menus, why couldn't they use that music in the episodes' theme songs? Speaking of the theme song, they really dropped the ball on this box set's opening. I am fine with the English opening, I am fine with the Japanese opening (even though I think it gives away too much of the story), but what they gave us was some butchered version of both. They take the English music, start it all in the middle of the Japanese opening, at the scene that the English opening starts at, and just plays the opening from there with the Japanese video but the English music leaving an unsatisfying mess that leaves you extremely confused and annoyed. What's even more annoying is that scenes were missing from the Japanese video, which means that they took the time to go through this video and thoroughly doctor up this monster when they could have just taken that time and used the original English opening, like they did for the Season 1 box set.

The Season 1 box set was far superior in nearly every way. I say "nearly" because despite the audio quality I must admit that the episode selection screen was just amazing.

Since I am a HUGE Digimon fan, and Season 2 is my favorite season I am extremely disappointed, but I will make do with this set of discs, despite the sound quality, because I now own every episode of Digimon Season 2 and I can watch them whenever I want! So bottom line, if you are a huge Digimon fan, you will probably be able to get over the poor audio--and maybe even the monstrosity of an opening--otherwise you may as well just find the episodes on the internet because they will probably be better quality anyway.

Even though I know that this isn't legit, I am excited to own the complete second season! The box art is amazing, and I really like how it looks. If I had one complaint, it would be the the menus are not that great... but still, I am really happy with my purchase!

This item was very over priced! I can't stress how much I love Digimon but the price for the season is too much!

When I first saw that Digimon came out in the season, I almost died. When I saw they had the second season on DVD, I did die. But then I came back to write this review. This Collectors Box Set include the entire Second season of Digmon. It goes all the way from when the new Digi-destined recieve their first Armor Digi-eggs to the fall of Malomyotismon. The old Digi-destined join the cast with the new crew to shake things up in the new season as well. As I watched each episode of the season, I forgot how engaging the show is for a younger audience, but still keeps the older audience interested. If you're a hard-core digimon fan, this second season Collectors Box Set is for you.

Three years later since the first season of digimon, Tai, Matt, Sora, Izzy, Mimi, Joe, T.K., and Kari have grown up to be teenagers. A new darkness has come back, however a new enemy, the Digimon Emperor have appeared. Not just any villian, a human teenager is ruling the digital world. Since none of the DigiDestined's digimons can digivolve to their champion level and had given up their ultimate level and crests to save the digital world. It's up to T.K., Patamon, Kari, and Gatomon to defeat the Digimon Emperor- Ken and his digimon Wormon - and save the digital world with three new DigiDestined: Davis, Yolei, and Cody. Davis, Yolei, and Cody are chosen by three new digimon: Veemon (a lizard-like digimon with a little horn sticking out of top of his nose)- Davis', Hawkmon (a bird digmon with a belt on his head and feather sticking out)- Yolei's, and Armadillomon (an armored armadillo- like digimon with three-clawed limbs and a short tail)- Cody's.

With the digi-eggs of courage, love, knowledge, friendship, sincerity (Purity), reliability, hope and light, the new DigiDestined and T.K. and Kari's digimons are able to digivolve in ancient form of Armor Digivolution. Working as team and facing many new and old enemies, it up to Davis, Yolei, Cody, T.K., and Kari along with their digimon to save the digital world.

I couldn't believe that the digimon series was on dvd. I couldn't wait to buy the first one, but then the second season was on sale. I wanted to buy both of them, but instead I brought the second season. When I got it I couldn't believe my eyes. I put the first disc on my dvd player and picture was perfect and the sounds were great. Also, the services(REFLECTMAGIC) was great and they were very helpful.

The season two is one of best season of digimon including the first one.
This season can teach viewers about courage, love, knowledge, friendship, sincerity (Purity), and reliability. No matter what you do, yours friends are there for you. There may be some fighting and slapping- which Hawkmon says in the series.. brutal, but affected, but helps builds friendship in some kind of way.

Digimon the second season is a great show and I can't wait to buy the first one and many other seasons of digimon. P.S. it never to late to watch digimon at any age.
