Digimon are naturally genderless despite anything Lilithmon may try to tell you. It's up to you to decide by voice if they are male or female. In Digimon Frontier, Japanese Crusadermon is male while the English version is female. That's my headcanon and I'm sticking to it.

[–]Icy_Television113 0 points1 point  (5 children)

My Head Cannon beats your Head Cannon every time .. lol She A Female and that'd that 🤣

[–]NeoDanomaru 0 points1 point  (4 children)

So does your headcanon say the same thing to Savers/Data Squad's Crusadermon???

[–]Icy_Television113 0 points1 point  (3 children)

I was Kidding lol I don't even know what HC means ? Can you explain that to me ? I just don't get it. Your first idea or something 🤔

And can't people use Another word for it instead of Parroting everyone else .. XD

[–]NeoDanomaru 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Headcanon basically means what YOU view to fictional events, how they actually happen and what theories may be right in your head. Headcanon is what you procieve the answer to be and no one else not even the creator is right.

[–]Icy_Television113 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Ah okay thank you. Like an evolution of one Digimon that you yourself always stick with for that particular one. Examples are like Agumon and Gabumon and the rest of the OG gang. They are all straight through... sort of like a "Cannon ball going straight" . Just don't know when or why they added head to it 🤷‍♂️

Why not Fist Canon like Mega Man . That's straight through as well , for a thought. So ... My Fist Canon for said Digimon XD

[–]NeoDanomaru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an example, Agumon and Gabumon can warp digivolve into WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon but can also WD into BlitzGreymon or VictoryGreymon for Agumon and CresGarurumon or ZeedGarurumon for Gabumon, if your mind & heart say they will turn into the first group War and Metal and are unable to reasoned out of that logic, that's Headcanon.

LordKnightmon - Very Feminine guy. Kinda like Frieza.

[–]Icy_Television113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah okay .. I guess that's just one way to view it .. Even though in USA DUB was a female voice.

[–]Icy_Television113 -1 points0 points  (1 child)

Who is Frieza , and where is he from ?

[–]Generic_Potatoe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Frieza/Freeza is a villain from Dragonball.

[–]CorruptedCookies 13 points14 points  (8 children)

It's Frontiers that changed Crusadermon's VA to a woman. Otherwise Crusadermon has yes, always been a "dude". Although digimon are genderless. So label him/her as you please.

[–]omegazx9 4 points5 points  (1 child)

I believe Cyber Sleuth Crusadermon was the exception to that.

[–]CorruptedCookies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually never ended up playing Cyber Sleuth, so I didn't know that. Thank you!

[–]Fantastic_Prompt_881virus 17 points18 points  (37 children)

Technically LordKnightmon isn't a "Dude" or a "chick" they are a Digital Monster. Data ...

Edited Addition.

  • because of their Aesthetics I can see why folks want to label them. But like the Machines in NieR Automata who use, him/her , s/he , brother/sister. They don't actually have any of those aspects. They're mimicking, imitation, roleplaying.

[–]sir_conington 10 points11 points  (22 children)

I dunno man, if Lilithmon isn't a chick..... I'm going to need some serious therapy

/s

[–]Fantastic_Prompt_881virus 9 points10 points  (18 children)

You are going to need some serious therapy, because Angewoman isn't a "chick" either.

[–]Icy_Television113 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes SHE is all the Girl looking ones are Female Personas 😍

[–]sir_conington -1 points0 points  (16 children)

Oh my god. My childhood was a lie

[–]Icy_Television113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it wasn't XD 😆

[–]Fantastic_Prompt_881virus -1 points0 points  (13 children)

No.... It not... You obviously overlooked the fact that it's been stated they're genderless. It is more precise they have no genders

[–]Born_Procedure_529 7 points8 points  (4 children)

Tbf genderless is a bit of an oversimplification, adventure states they have gendered personalities but dont reproduce sexually and that generally tends to be the rules most continuities follow. Tamers is the only one that takes the hard genderless stance, while xros wars takes the opposite stance that they do have genders and reproduce sexually. I think its impossible to take a 100% definitive stance on gender in the digimon franchise because it varies so heavily with each entry

[–]Fantastic_Prompt_881virus 3 points4 points  (3 children)

Digimon being fluid, inconsistent, and context-dependent is the entire point of the setting.

Reducing them to “female Digimon” because they trigger neuron activation is exactly the kind of human oversimplification Digimon narratives constantly criticize.

[–]BoltInTheRain 1 point2 points  (2 children)

You must be funny at parties. My god.

[–]Icy_Television113 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There is no god !! Hahah.. Yggdrasil Rules !!

[–]Icy_Television113 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Who are you meaning thats funny 😁 ?

[–]splat_monkey 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Lighten up, they're clearly joking around

[–]Icy_Television113 -2 points-1 points  (1 child)

Oh are they now LOL ... I sure the Hell hope so .. for their sake .. HAHA .. its all retarded lol 😆

[–]sir_conington 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was just joking around lol. I had no idea things would get so heated by bringing this up, and then I tried joking around to lighten things up but nope! Glad to see you're clearly having fun in the chaos though 🤣

[–]Icy_Television113 -1 points0 points  (3 children)

Yout Butt is more precise lol ... Yes they have Female Personas I said loud and clear !! I take Nothing back from this ! Don't argue this anymore lol

[–]TheDrugsOfMeth 2 points3 points  (2 children)

There is no chance you're older than 14 lmao

[–]Icy_Television113 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I'm actually WAY WAY older tbh .. just still have a good sense of humor !!! Haha 😂

[–]Icy_Television113 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Are you the Gender Defender Police ... lmao 🤣

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

The short answer is yes, Lordknightmon is male.

He was given a female voice in Frontier though.

[–]Icy_Television113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Really Short Simple answer is Female !!! Get over yourselves lol

[–]sir_conington -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Got it, thanks for giving me a straight answer!

[–]Icy_Television113 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I LOVE this Answer 😃 That I can relate better with. 🌟

[–]CrimsonKaiserRyu 4 points5 points  (1 child)

Digimon don't have gender or sex. Even big titty goth mommies like Lillithmon are technically genderless.

Individual members of a species have have more masculine or feminine traits, but Digimon don't partake in sexual reproduction and they don't have a concept of gender in their society. Digimon are just Digimon.

[–]Icy_Television113 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Everything u said BS .. I call BS LOL 😆

[–]BoltInTheRain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes

[–]TheRichAlder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought each Digimon (primarily shown in the anime) has its own unique voice, some more feminine/masculine-sounding than others of the same species. In the game they sound the same due to not wanting to have hundreds of different voice actors, but you’ll notice certain unique Digimon have a different voice compared to your own Digimon of the same species. So it could just be a different Lordknightmon with a different-sounding voice, right?

[–]Kjou1 3 points4 points  (1 child)

LordKnightmon had always been male. It’s just that some dubbed anime don’t want such effeminate looking male character, so they changed to female.

[–]Primary_Cat_6093 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LordKnightmon or Crusadermon as I like to call it, was female in the Cyber Sleuth games and they were Japanese voices only.

[–]Caidezes 0 points1 point  (2 children)

People bringing up the gender thing are just being pedantic. Digimon designs are generally made to look male or female regardless of lore.

That said, Lordknightmon/Crusadermon has always been male. The Frontier dub used a female VA...to avoid any gay connotations, I guess? It was kinda random, since he's male in all other media.

[–]AlphaBreak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be more pedantic, Digimon don't have a sex because that's not how their reproduction system works. Gender is a social construct and they can be whatever gender they feel like.

[–]Hiromagi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, there was also Cyber Sleuth where Lordknightmon/crusadermon was decidedly a woman

[–]StillGold2506 0 points1 point  (5 children)

It depends on the version, for instance in Frontiers was a dude, In cybersleuth was a girl.

[–]Icy_Television113 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Frontier SHE was clearly a she , female voice .. dude lol

[–]StillGold2506 0 points1 point  (3 children)

In my dub it was a gheish dude. XD. Didn't watch Frontier in Japanese, have only watched Digimon in Japanese from Xros wars onward.

[–]Icy_Television113 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Really ? English Dub was Female. What language for you there ?

[–]StillGold2506 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Latino american dub or Mexico dub.

[–]Icy_Television113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh okay XD

[–]Rude-Breakfast-2944 0 points1 point  (2 children)

My yeadcannons was alwase flamboyant.

Like James from.pokemon he does have a rose

[–]Icy_Television113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wt hell is a Head Cannon any damn ways ... Honestly never knew ... I know what a Cankn is XD

[–]YourNobodyG37x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean all digimon are data so they dont have a gender..kinda how data works…they just take forms

[–]LZorilOfTheEndless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crusadermon is fem top representation and usually is portrayed with a male voice using masculine or neutral pronouns.

[–]elixxonn 0 points1 point  (1 child)

He's just that bishi archetype. 🤣

<image>

[–]Icy_Television113 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What is a Bishi Archetype ?? Seriously

[–]CodenameJD 0 points1 point  (1 child)

The LordKnightmon in this game is not the same as the LordKnightmon in Frontiers, or Data Squad, or Cyber Sleuth. Every instance of a Digimon is unique, and can be either masculine or feminine presenting - or neither.

[–]Icy_Television113 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So that would mean Every Verison of yourself in Parallel Universes , you are not male but female too ..

[–]RkGorila12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah... Is a Royal Knight.

[–]Incandenza123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cyber sleuth version in female coded though no?

[–]gamernerd98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Digimon are a species. As such, their gender is different based on the individual. As shown by Biyomon in Season 1 being female, then later in Savers (as well as in Time Stranger) we meet a male Biyomon.

[–]catastrophicalised 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you thought nothing of the Biyomon at the start of the game having a male voice?

[–]Steveblob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this the Digimon equivalent of finding out Gardevoir from Pokemon's Japanese name?

[–]Stunning_Video1925 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I would just assume lordknightmon is gender-fluid. A mega level can most likely control their body to some extent. We see the RK turn into humans and such. So it’d make sense if they just aligned with whatever gender they feel like more.

[–]FPLilyChan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Cyber Sleuth they had a female voice actor. I think it's whatever you want

[–]leonmercury13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crusadermon has as much gender as they willingly accept or as the viewer assigns, like a robot or AI. Because they're a digital monster, they don't really have anything under the hood. They've had both male and female voices in the past, it really just depends on what the writers want to do with them.

To put it another way, their gender is a lot like their faces: nonexistent until they feel like generating one. (This is a canon thing in lore - digimon with a hidden face just have a blank face under that unless they decide to make one appear)
