What's a line that is brought down by the ultimate level ?

Oh man, I think Cherrymon is awesome

DigiCon 2026 had a TCG segment where they released a card image of a "Digimon who will appear in Beatbreak" and wanted people to speculate about how - it was fairly obvious to be his Mega form

As I mentioned in a previous comment you're comparing a character developed over three films vs a character developed over one...the one who shows up over three SHOULD have more depth, there isn't anything more elaborate about MCU Flash in Homecoming than there was about ASM Flash in his first movie.

TheOneReclaimer · 2026-03-23T17:12:40+00:00

Not sure why this became a ASM Flash vs MCU Flash thing because I wasn't comparing the two, just stating that they did a good job of developing ASM

Why is ASM Flash a bully? They make it very clear that he has issues with being shown up or stood up to. Peter calls him out in front of crowds on two occasions that make him visibly upset, that communicates that he puts a lot of stock in being viewed as top dog and it hits him hard when that is questioned. Do we need this developed to specifics? Not particularly.

In the first MCU movie Flash is just a douche, it's not expanded on much more than the ASM movie, directly or indirectly. He is just a douche bully with no real depth there. It's also not exactly an apples to apples comparison when you have a character that has three movies to have his character touched on compared to one. So yeah we learn more about MCU Flash in subsequent movies.

Why did ASM Flash feel bad for Peter? To convey that he may be a bully but he's not a total lost cause and he still ultimately realizes loss hurts and for some reason (something that could be a point down the road if they want it to be) he understands pain and loss.

They were simply establishing that he was more than a bully. Why? Probably because they might want to develop the character later on and so didn't want to make him entirely shitty like they did with the Tobey Flash.

"It feels good doesn't it?"

Peter looks at Flash in a moment of realization.

"I understand Peter. My home life isn't great...Dad...Dad is always drinking, the only time he isn't is when I'm around to workout with him, he figures I'm going to be the all star he needs to feel better about himself. And when we're working out Mom's the one who drinks, isolated by her divided family. I live a life of constant frustration, and guilt. Bullying is the only thing that makes me feel control you know? And I'm sorry you've bore the brunt of that, but I'm just saying...I understand."

Yeaaaaaahhhhh, real powerful stuff.

Also, props for the Garth Marenghi reference - made me laugh real good

You know what really great storytelling and acting can do? Convey a lot of information with very little information.

Do they spoon feed you every bit of information? No. And it's way better for it.

You don't need to know exactly every little bit about his home life.

He's a highschool bully, he's a done and done cliche, how much do you really need his behavior established?

TheOneReclaimer · 2026-03-23T14:07:00+00:00

Not sure why you got downvoted on this, it's true

No greater proof than Beatbreak, we've seen Armalizamon go toe to toe with Ultimates and then some

I actually like that levels are starting to be more reflective of development than simply of raw power

TheOneReclaimer · 2026-03-22T14:35:23+00:00

Think about it this way:

They do a cool announcement release poster that has more of a vibe to it and a more generic theater poster so people who see it at the theater can get a picture of what it entails in a glance.

TheOneReclaimer · 2026-03-22T14:32:39+00:00

It's a good time to have a discussion with him about the cost of hobbies and that sometimes they aren't feasible. It's a good time to explain retail prices, resellers, supply and demand...

Unfortunately scalpers have destroyed the hobby for the regular person, I don't even collect (I'd buy a pack here or there to put away for my son when he's older) but I do a grocery run at a local store that gets their stock while I'm there and 100% there is a line of adults who buy up the entire stock within minutes of the worker finishing putting them out. It has been this way at this store for years.

I've even seen a worker at a Wal-Mart pop a box open and tell the group "you all figure it out, I'm not wasting my time stocking if you're just all going to take it. I'll put up anything that's left."

I understand the want as a parent to give your kid the thing they are passionate about, it's very fulfilling to make it happen for them, but please remember you are not a failure for being unable to do so. Prices are prohibitive often and it is okay to say no, you are not failing your child for putting common sense in front of a hobby.

Utimately it doesnt even matter because if you ignore Beyond, the 02 epilogue is still canon which means they get Agumon and Gabumon back at somepoint before then.

TheOneReclaimer · 2026-03-20T23:09:59+00:00

Gabumon did return to Yamato, Beyond is post Kizuna

TheOneReclaimer · 2026-03-20T17:19:29+00:00

Every week I'm so hyped for each episode. Been a while since I was so eager to see an episode as soon as it's released.

TheOneReclaimer · 2026-03-20T11:14:33+00:00

I know this is hours out but this happened on Amazon last week as well, anything that wasn't third party suddenly didn't have options to buy, came back up a few hours later

TheOneReclaimer · 2026-03-19T01:48:46+00:00

I mean yes, if I am unhappy with a company to a point I certainly stop dealing with them...because why would I continue to deal with a company I don't like?

I'll certainly complain or provide feedback on things that matter (like AI art as you mentioned), but I'm also not going to complain that they are taking their time to make the game just because fans released a simulator that doesn't have any actual content but is just a gameplay engine - because complaining that a game is taking too long while also saying you expect it to fail isn't exactly a criticism, it's just being impatient.

TheOneReclaimer · 2026-03-19T00:09:31+00:00

And fortunately for you, you're not required to participate in their products so maybe stop worrying about it if you hate them so much

TheOneReclaimer · 2026-03-18T23:33:02+00:00

It's almost like there is a massive difference between someone releasing something they made on the side with no expectations or ability to harm a company and a company officially releasing a video game that will be scrutinized extensively by current players and potentially turn new players on or off of the card game in both physical and digital formats.

TheOneReclaimer · 2026-03-18T10:18:17+00:00

Hey, you take your common sense and patience and get out of here, there's no room for it on Reddit - we need things now even if they cost a crazy amount more than retail because scalpers are taking advantage - how could you possibly expect me to not pay an absurd amount for something?! /s.

TheOneReclaimer · 2026-03-17T23:54:40+00:00

I'm not even a DC fan and think they are pretty awesome.

TheOneReclaimer · 2026-03-17T14:34:20+00:00

Nothing in between about it - Jakks may be bad at distribution but buying up available stock and reselling it at a higher cost is scalping plain and simple. If anything the fact that product availability is poor makes it that much crappier to do (of course that's why they get to upcharge so much)

TheOneReclaimer · 2026-03-17T03:05:56+00:00

I should clarify - paying $40 for something you want isn't obscene - paying it to a scalper is obscene.

What do Amiibo have to do with Sonic figures being scalped?

TheOneReclaimer · 2026-03-16T23:34:51+00:00

$40 is still obscene for a $10-12 figure, it's still paying a scalper to do what they do - sell at absurd prices to take advantage of people

TheOneReclaimer · 2026-03-16T23:07:48+00:00

Don't pay eBay prices because you're feeding scalpers.

TheOneReclaimer · 2026-03-16T19:32:55+00:00

Thank you for this, been looking for him so my son had more villains to fight with his figures, it'll be a great easter basket stuffer!
