Biyomon Gets Firepower
Shakunetsu! Baadoramon!
o_o Oh, no! B.O.mon's packing heat!!

The stupid dialogue was really flaming today (pun not intended). Sora and Mimi are made out to be total morons this episode. Shocker.

Stupid Dialogue:
Matt: "Whenever we're in danger, our Digimons get bigger and help us."

One Digimon, two Digimon. Digimon is a Japanese word, therefore it is both singular and plural.

Izzy: "Admit it! My alien theory is becoming more plausible."

No, it isn't.

There's some dialogue between T.K. and Biyomon about snakes that makes no sense.

Biyomon: "Hey, wait a minute! Is he saying that Digimon are not intelligent?"

Sure.

Sora's rambling on about teamwork as everyone else walks away is stupid dialogue.

Matt: "The next stop on our tour will be the forest of irrelevant road signs. No pictures please."

No talking, please!

Joe: "Stop, my shoelace is broken!"
Mimi: "You need new shoes! Ooh! New shoes!"


Izzy: "It's that flying saucer again!"
Matt: "And it's heading for a close encounter."

A "flying saucer" which is nowhere in the vicinity of the kids!

T.K.: "Oh, it's so hot I can feel the heat coming up through my socks."
Matt: "Well, T.K., maybe you should put your shoes back on."

Maybe you should put your glasses on, Matt. He's wearing his shoes.

Mimi: "Oooh, this hot desert air is destroying my complexion!"
Joe: "Is that all you're worried about, Mimi? We'll be lucky if we survive this hike!"


Izzy: "... or some alien equivalent."

I wish they'd put the X-Files theme music in when he does that. That'd be hilarious.

Mimi: "Oh, nothing. I was just wondering if anyone else remembered."


Mimi: "You won't believe what happened to my favorite watch! The sun melted the numbers right off!"

She KNOWS it's a compass.

Tai: "Mimi, for someone who hates hiking, you sure have a lot of compasses... of course, none of them actually work."

That's the only one she has. The other thing wasn't a compass!

Mimi: "Oh well, I'm always late anyway!"

They do tone down on the Mimi-ditz lines later in the series, luckily.

T.K.: "P-ew! What's that yucky smell?"
Matt: "*sniff sniff* Here's a thought: Now you know why they call them sweat socks!"

Ok, that's just gross.

Mimi: "(stuff about beaches and attractive lifeguards)"

Good thing they eventually tone down, although it's too bad they did it in the first place. Original Mimi was quite cute and charming.

Mimi: "Maybe they'll have hats for sale!"

Yes, that's likely.

Izzy: "Maybe she's an alien--"

*slaps Izzy* Don't even finish that line!

Biyomon: "We're invited to have dinner with the Yoko's."

Ugh. Please don't shorten the Digimons' names. It's horrible.

Side Note:
The mountain's name "Miharashi" is kept, although it's pronounced with an American accent.

Stupid Dialogue:
Yokomon: "Look, Tai's doing a little dance for us! Is that supposed to stop the fire or bring on the rain?"

The all-mighty Panic Dance makes the fire bigger!

Tai: "(Something about Meramon crying)"

He's not crying -- he has a huge grin on his face!

Side Note:
The whole "Burning! I'm burning!" thing is kept, but original Meramon's voice sounds more like he's actually in pain.

Stupid Dialogue:
Sora: "Everybody freeze! Stay very still!
Meramon: "You're going to need more than sunscreen to stop me!"
Sora: "Don't move a muscle!"

See? It's weird.

Biyomon: "Ah, good. They're all safe now."

How does she talk without moving her beak?

Biyomon: "Go away, Meramon! Leave us alone! We're not bothering you!"

Yeah! You big MEANIE!

Sora: "Biyo! Biyo! I'm coming Biyo!"

The Digimon's names are never shortened in the Japanese version.

Tai: "If we knew why he was crying, we might be able to stop him."

He's not crying! Look at his face! Does it look like he's crying?

Meramon: "(Anything he says)"

All Meramon says in the original is "I'm Burning!".

Side Note:
Meramon - Burning Fist = Fireball [Corrected 01 April 2008 thanks to Mark and his functioning ears and brain. Thanks, Mark!]. Also, Birdramon forgets to use her attack name, Meteor Wing.

Stupid Dialogue:
Matt: "Maybe this moster just has growing pains!"

Could be, Matt. Could be.

Sora: "(some crap about how it'll be alright because Biyomon "digivolved" to save them)"

Her facial expression doesn't match her voice tone OR her line.

Meramon: "What's wrong, Birdramon? Afraid of me? Let's fight!"

She scared that her partner keeps calling her B.O..

Sora: "Oh, Bee..."

Who's Bee?

Side Note:
Meramon's voice after the gear is destroyed is a lot more pleasant in the original. He really sounds like a nice person without the dub voice.

Stupid Dialogue:
Joe: "Besides, I don't even know what that stuff is, but I'm sure I allergic to it."

We all are, Joe. We all are.

Sora: "Being so little, she sure has a huge heart."

... ggg... *shudder*

Total episode retained: 100%. Don't worry, the cuts start soon enough. Enjoy it while it lasts.
