Enter the world of Digimon Digital Monsters. This video contains three separate stories: "Biyomon Gets Firepower," "Kabuterimon's Electro Shocker," and "Togemon in Toy Town." Each of these features a group of kids: Tai, Sora, Matt, T.K., Izzy, Mimi, and Joe. Along for the adventure with them are assorted Digimon. In "Biyomon," a mysterious black gear lodges itself into Meramon (a Digimon with fire power), making him into a fireball of destruction. Biyomon must digivolve into Birdamon to cool him off. In "Kabuterimon's Electro Shocker," the group rescues a robotlike Digimon called Andromon, but he turns out to be hostile and almost unstoppable. Again, a mysterious black gear seems to be the culprit. Kabuterimon launches a shocking attack and scores an unlikely victory. In "Togemon in Toy Town," a large teddy bear named Monzaemon has the aforementioned black gear stuck in its body. The results are a raging stuffed bear of destruction. Our gang must find a way to dislodge it in order to make Toy Town safe. Looks like a job for Palmon. This series digivolves into Pokémon, featuring the same simple animation and plots that will baffle the adult crowd. --Peggy Maltby-Etra

From the back cover

Catch the coolest kids and craziest creatures in the whole wide digital world with DIGIMON! Meet Tai, Sora, Matt, T.K., Izzy, Mimi and Joe--seven young friends who team up with a colorful assortment of "monsters" to battle evil forces in the ultimate digital adventure.

Biyomon Gets Firepower
Weak from the desert heat, the kids finally reach a village, but a fire monster named Meramon is burning mad and dries up the water supply. Biyomon must digivolve into Birdramon to cool him off!

Kabuterimon's Electro Shocker
The children rescue a robotlike Digimon trapped in an abandoned factory, but "Andromon" turns out to be hostile--and seemingly undefeatable--until Kabuterimon scores a shocking victory.

Togemon in Toy Town
There's no joy in Toy Town when a huge teddy bear named Monzaemon attacks, but Palmon transforms into Togermon just in time to turn the overstuffed Digimon back into a gentle giant.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Second Volume At Last!, March 5, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Digimon (Vol. 2) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Okay first of all, Digimon isn't just some little kids cartoon. I'm twelve, and I've been watching for forever! If you bought volume one, you should buy this video too because more of the kids digimon reach their champion stage and the story gets more complex. The episode with Kabuterimon (did I spell that right?) is really neat. The entire digimon series is worth watching even if you aren't into anime, though that helps. The character design has a way of making you forget that what you're watching is Jappanese and soon the only thing you'll notice is the ocasional (VERY ocasional) dubbing error. I'm not sure I understand why its taking them so long to make new videos though. It might be wiser to watch Digimon on TV if you are short on allowance. By the way, did you know that mon means crest in Jappanese?

5.0 out of 5 stars Just as good as Volume one, February 29, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Digimon (Vol. 2) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Now first I need to say that Digimon is not a rip-off of Pokemon. In Japan, Digimon came out in 1991, Monster Rancher came out in 1994, and Pokemon came out in 1995. Digimon is an excellent show. I used to hate Digimon but afetr seeing episode 32 or so one morning, I really started to appreciate the story. Digimon is for kids about 9-13. It has great humor and loveable characters, each with their own special personality. After you watch this video, you will watch it every day of the week on tv. You'll be waiting for Volume 3 as soon as you get the tape out fo your VCR. I would recommend buying Volume one too. That way you can get caught up. You will be impressed with funny dialouge, action packed excitement, and an interesting storyline. The video starts with the kids taking a long walk across a desert, then being attacked by a Digimon with an evild evice controling him(Black Gear). Next they find an old factory where they are attacked by an old robot with the same kind of device in him. After that, the kids are attacked by some sewer dwelling monsters then chased into a palce called toy town. A giant teddy bear has been taken control of by a Black Gear. I found these Digimon videos at Target for $9.99. Just figured I'd tell you that. Don't miss any of the Digimon tapes!

5.0 out of 5 stars This is what makes Digimon flourish, March 18, 2000

This review is from: Digimon (Vol. 2) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

How can Anime go wrong when drawn by the creators of the 2 most famous animes? (Dragonball, and Z; Sailormoon) These episodes are Kabuterimon's Electroshocker (also known as the Andromon ep) the Togemon in Toy town ep (one of my very favorites) and I'm not sure, but the 3rd might be the Yokomon village one! That one was a must see for Sora lovers. And that's it! If you bought the first volume, you got the gold lined digimon cards that you can't find anywhere else. Who knows what (or if) the suprise is this time! In my very highly rated opinion (egoalert) this is a must buy.
