    Yes. Myotismon is my all time favorite villain of Digimon. I like his design, intellect, attacks, charisma and power. He just has a very dark, arrogant and cruel personality to him that cannot be matched. I also think the reason people prefer Myotismon over Devimon is because Devimon kind of comes off as a generic and cliché villain stereotype. Not to mention Myotismon has lasted the longest against the digidestined. He's lasted longer than even the Dark Masters. As Myotismon, it took Angewomon and the digidestined's digimon to give their power to her to destroy him. As Venommyotismon, it took the combined efforts of the digidestined's crests, Wargreymon and Metalgarurumon to defeat him and as Malomyotismon, it took different digidestined from all over the world, their digivices, positive wishes and Imperialdramon Fighter Mode to destroy him and especially his spirit.

    In terms of character Myotismon was like Devimon but more fleshed, I remember as a kid I had first thought that Myotismon was the digivolution of Devimon at first.
    That said I would like to point out that while he was able to easily crush the majority of digidestined ultimate forms, which were the same stage as him, we can’t really say he did it with all of them. I mean Patamon didn’t become an ultimate until facing Piedmon and Magnaangemon was able to crush piedmon who was a mega. That said the angemon line were actually really OP in the first Adventures when they actually made it to their different stages

  • @Jaq246
    @Jaq246 Před 4 lety +8

    Myotismon is my favorite villain in the series.
    1. He was a vampire, Vampires were a common extremely popular with kids in the 1990's and 2000's.
    2. He literally was the strongest because it took so much to defeat him. What made him so interesting was that he kept getting stronger, so the Digimon had issues defeating him. When Garudamon first showed up, she was strong enough to stall him and fly away. However, it got progressively harder and harder to fight him. Then, when you think the enemy is defeated, he comes back out of nowhere for an unexpected, but not ridiculous reason. While season 2 was full of plot-holes, I remember as a kid being like, "Wow, after all that fighting in season 1 they still couldn't defeat him?!!?".
    3. This is similar to the second reason, but still different. The scene where he paralyzed Lilimon always stayed in my head some reason. He was he first villain to actually paralyze one of the 8 Digimon, and it lasted more than 1 episode. What made it scarier was that Mimi got captured because Sora had no choice but to retreat. This only added to stakes because now they had to protect Hikari but also rescue Mimi too. In Japanese class, I spoke to some friends and that was one scene they could never forget too, even after 15 years. Also, had they not found Wizardmon, Lilimon probably would have stayed paralyzed.
    4. He had a variety of attacks. I don't remember the exact number of attacks all the other villains had, but just from remembering Myotismon's, I can guarantee that he had the most. (While this made him badass, I do admit this made him too strong and it made it seem unnatural. But I feel that the writers just had to do it because they had no choice).
    -Night Raid (attacking with bats)
    -Bloody Stream (crimson lightening)
    -Dead scream (Nightmare Claw)
    -Physical hand to hand combat (When he fought weregarurumon and angemon)
    -Energy ball attack (The attack right before Wizardmon died)
    -Being able to control his enemies' movements (With megakabuterimon)
    So yeah, a lot of reasons for why he's the best villain.

  • @monkeyscientist9913

    I'd say Neo Saiba from Digimon Adventure V-Tamer is the best villain. He was super skilled at the Digimon V-Pet game, and was near unbeatable at it. He had reasons for what he was doing, and thought of Digimon as nothing more than specs of data. He also devised his own way of abusing the coding of the Digital World, including constantly re-healing his Digimon through DNA Digivolution. Not only this, but he trashed this story's version of Tai HARD. On top of this, Neo was able to breed a near unstoppable and all-power Digimon known as Arkadimon. He used guilt in order to make his best friend do whatever he wanted. Neo killed countless Digimon and was only really redeemed at the end (Which felt really forced) Neo is one of the few and only villains in the series to constantly trump Taichi, and even defeat him occasion. Not only that, but pretty much every human teenager villain in the series (Including Rei from Universe and that one blonde guy from Xros Wars) are based off him.

    In anime, maybe. In all digimon stories that have existed, I'd say Bagramon from Xross Wars Manga. The guy rebelled against Homeostasis for a valid reason, was the first digimon to become the true master of his own destiny, created a vast and long lasting empire, organized humongous façade to judge the worth and affects of human hearts, which fooled even the royal knights themselves. He had actually prepared for all the possible out comes of his plan, and orchestrated everything to near perfection. He did all of this, AND showed care and compassion to all those who worked under him, gave them guidance and helped them to achieve new heights. On top of tactical prowess, he also possessed great intelligence in science and magic, plus pretty damn powerful. The fact that he achieved ALL OF THIS, *after* getting half of his body eradicated, shows just how far he was willing to go to do what he saw was right.

      The "funny" thing about Bagramon is that while there are Xross Wars Manga and Anime, they differ from one another a lot. And the biggest difference, is in Bagramon himself. In the anime he is pretty much a devimon type villain, letting others do his dirty work and just give the orders. He shows up here and there in the anime, and the final few episodes have quite a lot of him, and he is one tough final opponent that could probably one shot all the other villains in anime. He is evil and calculative, doing many things which make him seem quite Hitlerish, but over all his character depth isn't that good. *The manga version is by far the better version, by grand canyon sized margin.* The Xros Wars season is still pretty good, so I would suggest giving it a watch.

    Digmon Adventure 01 Villain Tier List (counting movie villains)
    Bad Tier:
    Apocalymon (Reminds me of how Nightmare was portrayed in the Kirby anime, the final threat yet gets beaten in one single Deux Ex Machina moment, but at least Nightmare had appeared before his fight and had actual personality)
    Metalseadramon (Hardly appears, adds little to the dark masters, the Digimon it's based on isn't even supposed to be evil usually, everything they do Machinedramon just does better.)
    Meh Tier:
    Devimon (Was a decent first villain but he didn't really do much overall and wasn't very proactive, his ending monologue was pretty good though)
    Parrotmon (Kinda just an angry bird, it was cool in its little fight in the movie but it really had no real goals or reasons for its actions.)
    Piedmon (Felt like a downgrade as the big bad from Myotismon, he was definitely a threat but he just didn't feel as evil and there wasn't as much of a personal feud with him, albeit I'll give him a pass because he was still decent overall and his voice work was good.)
    Good Tier:
    Puppetmon (I feel he's a bit overrated in the community but he's still a good villain overall, he stood out by being smaller than the others and actually having a goal for his actions beyond just being evil, I feel that he should have been redeemed rather than killed though, as with most of the dark masters he didn't really get a fitting ending.)
    Etemon (There is little to nothing wrong with Etemon IMO, he was funny, powerful, and most importantly he was entertaining, a good, silly, Saturday morning cartoon villain can be just as good as a deep, dark, serious villain and it goes to show with this guy, plus the evil impression was the tip on the iceberg on his monkey awesomeness... was really glad he came back as MetalEtemon, he really added the comedy that the Dark Master arc needed.)
    Best Tier:
    Diaboromon (Easily the most threatening villain in the OG series, in the movie he really felt like a threat, and his fight scene was one of the best parts of the movie, and when Omnimon comes in and just annihilates his clones it's a spectacle honestly, there's a reason the Digimon is so iconic and beloved.)
    Machinedramon (Both the most powerful and intelligent of the Dark Masters, Machinedramon was probably the cruellest of the lot too, while the others still had their share of jokes and witty remarks, Machinedramon only thought of one thing and that's killing anyone he wanted, the only problem was that his defeat was easily the worst in the entire series.)
    Myotismon (If you're on this video you already know why he's the best of the lot. the arc had a great story, he felt intimidating, he was the right level of power to not feel to OP while also still being above the heroes, and he was one of the few villains where it took cooperation from everyone to defeat him, and when he came back it was just as good as it introduced the mega levels to the series and also was the first time a Kaiju like Digimon had been seen.)

    @neosolitudexevermore4895 Před 3 lety +1

    Devimon is better because:
    A. He did the whole "first major antagonist" thing professionally (unlike Giovanni who wasn't even in the final battle)
    B. Despite being a Champion Level, he is capable of controlling many Digimon with the black gears, even Ultimate or higher level Digimon like Andromon and Monzaemon
    C. Digimon Villains are usually shocked or in disbelief whenever they are defeated, but when Devimon died, he simply mocked Angemon for sacrificing himself to stop him and states that other Digimon with "greater powers of evil" will "finish" them, and then he just laughs evilly as he fades away, this alone gave me "he'll be back" vibes, and I was right to think that, because he majorly influenced the creation and rampage of Kimeramon, that and his battle with Angemon left quite an impact on T.K., as it is a key factor in T.K. becoming scared of losing Patamon again during the whole escapade with Blackwargreymon, a lot of people mostly recall Myotismon's influence over the 02 series, what they don't seem to realize is that Devimon was very prominent in 02 as well, while he may have not made a full blown return like Myotismon, his influence and the impact he had on T.K. was still very prominent, Myotismon and his influence wasn't major until the season's finale, but Devimon and his influence effected the Digidestined since the beginning, Devimon managed to cause Kimeramon to go berserk, and considering he was a key component in creating Kimeramon, Devimon is in a way indirectly responsible for the creation of one of the most evil and powerful Digimon and the first Arc of 02, as Kimeramon later becomes Milleniumon who is one of the main reason Ken became the Digimon Emperor, and Milleniumon later becomes Moonmilenumon and you all know the rest, this intern makes Devimon a posthumous antagonist of the Digimon Anime, as he is indirectly responsible for multiple major events in the Digital World.

  • @TheRhythym
    @TheRhythym Před 7 lety +18

    Honestly, I think Kurata is my favorite villain. Vamdemon/Myotismon is easily my second favorite, but Kurata from Savers is at the top of my list. Sadly, it has been quite since I've been able to see Savers, so my memories might not be entirely accurate. But Kurata for me was extremely interesting.
    First of all, we don't have too many human villains in Digimon. Owikawa was just a puppet for Vamdemon, so little of his actions are of his own choosing. Yamaki wasn't really much of a villain. He was intimidating presence early on, but ultimately nothing he did as a "villain" suceeded, and in the latter half of the series he realized mistakes and switched to aiding the Tamers. So I don't really think they count for much. So really only the Digimon Emperor, who could still arguably be lumped in with Owikawa due to the dark seed, and Kurata are human villains my book.
    More to the point, look at Kurata's story and what he does. He was part of an expedition to the Digital World, and learnt first how dangerous digimon are. It traumatized him, and, seeing them as a threat to mankind, he concocted a plan to eradicate them. Acting as a higher for DATS he had ton of pull and authority in the organization, and turned it into a military force to use against the Digital World. He successfully launched genocidal campaign on the Digital World using DATS and his manufactured digimon, I sadly forget their name, and bent a Demon Lord to his will. The Digital World was DECIMATED from his actions, and because of what he did Yggdrasil's decision that humanity was threat to Digimon holds real weight. Furthermore, despite how outright villainous and cruel he is he's still quite nuanced. Not only was he traumatized by incident that gave him his view of digimon, but he honestly believes he is doing the right thing.
    Of course, as I said, it's been a while since I've been able to watch Saver. So I may have gotten some of that information mixed. Regardless, I still think he's one of the more amazing villains Digimon has ever had, and it really makes me want MORE human villains in the series...
    ...And also sequels to both Tamers and Savers. But that has nothing to do with this discussion. Just dreaming of a future...

      Frankly I find Kurata lame and overated. I don't understand the praise he gets at all. For one thing his motives are plain stupid. He's poorly written, and only suceeds in his plans through the stupidity of others rather then any genuine cleverness. Then gets delusions of grandeur and plants his ugly mug on Belphemon like a big fat target. Ultimately I find him more annoying then hateable. A generic mad scientist with an arc that drags on far to long. So as far as human villains go, I think we can do a lot better...

    my fav villain is belzemon,when i was a kid i always think that the job of villain is being evil,scare people,and make you hate them,but belzemon is diffrent.belzemon is the first villain that i care about and make me feel sory of him.Actualy black wargreymon from digimon adventure 02 do that first,but all he want is to seeking the reason of his existance,and that topic like that are too heavy for me when i was a kid,i remember crying when he die and i dont even know why.But belzemon motive is simple,he want to be strong and respect from the other.He got so many char development since the begining of tamer,first i think he just anoying sidekick to keep this series not so serious,but affter i see him strugling when fighting indramon i realy feel sorry for him,then he got power and return as the cool belzemon,but he forget all the friendship and his feeling to get a power and become evil.Worst of all he kill leomon and make juri prety fuck up.until gallantmon come and beat him,but his life spare by the request of juri luck for him.I realy hate him in that time.But affter seing his flash back of ai and mako i feel sorry of him again.But he now good again,and for pay of his mistake to juri,he helping the tamer to beat the D reaper as the cool belzemon blastmode.He the first villain that make me hate him,care of him,feeling sorry of him,and make me think that he actualy cool,realy good character

  • @TheBlueMember
    @TheBlueMember Před 2 lety +1

    It's sad that Piedmon was important and threat just once with no comebacks nor duplicates of him. He showed himself as impossible to beat at the beginning, later and the last battle was long and very intense even having all main good digimons digievolved to the highest level and having a whole world of digimon friends. Even if he seemed to get beaten at last soon, he rised up, suprised with a new tricks and messed up a whole situation again. Apocalymon got beaten actually very easily after that digidestined resolved no crest and being lost problem so I feel Piedmon was even more powerful than his creator. But of course, Piedmon was unique and the fact that the way to beat him was to shoot him into the nothingness only instead of getting him killed first shows he was probably just impossible to destruct.
    Of course, Myotismon is badass too. Coming back again and again and the end revelation about Myotismon being responsible for everything in Digimon 2 was very creepy. Could get destructed but his soul was like a virus that kept building his body back to healthy.

    @Masterge77 Před 6 lety +2

    Digimon has had a lot of great villains. Bagramon was malevolent, Dr. Kurata was malicious, and the D-Reaper was the source of many childhood nightmares... but none will ever come close to the impact Myotismon had on the franchise. HE was menacing, brutal, powerful, and a very formidable opponent and showed virtually NO mercy. Plus he was the first Digimon in the entire franchise to Digivolve to Mega, a stage which at the time didn't even exist in the V-pets, let alone the anime or the manga.
    Now if only 02 didn't completely ruin him by having everyone talk him to death with their childhood dreams. Seriously, what the hell was up with that?
    Also, Guilmon in Tamers was a Virus Digimon and was a good guy, most fans don't seem to be aware of this.

    I think that Myotismon is the best villian in whole series of digimon, he was very selfconfident and defeted digidestends many times and his plan to rule both words was very smart, although, if he had defeted digidestend, he would return to the digital world and find the dark masters already took over the world. I doubt he would like that, but he couldn't defeat the Dark Masters, he would probably becamed Piedmon's minion or something. Anyway, he was brutal, though and a total badass.

  • @JRam757
    @JRam757 Před 3 lety

    I loved how Angemon was an equalizer to Devimon, since Devimon was a Fallen Angel and most of us who saw the show as kids didn't know that until years after. That's why Angemon was equally balanced against him which at the time implied he was the strongest Champion. Then Angemon is again the last one to digivolve and becomes MagnaAngemon who becomes instrumental in defeating Piedmon. Much so that it seem like he as an Ultimate was matched with Megas no problem. Just wish there was more lore behind Devimon besides the popular theory that he was seduced by a DemiDevimon into falling to the Dark Area where he was corrupted.

    I think part of the reason why he was popular what that he kept coming back, he was instrumental in most of the events that transpired in Digimon Adventure 02 after his defeat in the first season, I'm surprised that you didn't go into that as that is as equally as important as his appearance in season 1. Though what you said about the other villains was quite interesting, though Apocalymon was implied to have created all the evil Digimon in the series and not just the Dark Masters, hence why he actually copied one of Myotismon's attacks. Although I think you were meant to say 'villains' as good guys, but there has been some virus types who became good; Ogremon in the first season, but most notable is Guilmon from Tamers who is a virus attributed Digimon.

      I should add that milleniummon's achievements were highly exaggerated. The whole "milleniummon is responsible for everything wrong in the digital adventure world" is just a fan theory. In the games he was never stated to have actually sent apocalymon to the past (although he was indeed shown to have the ability to create digimon and send them to the past). In fact his only canon contribution to the adventure series was infecting Ken and nothing else.
      Although he was still one of the most efficient villians in the series having successfully become a multiversal conqueror and extremely powerful and almost indestructible digimon in the future (while still encountering resistance from said worlds).

    Only in the basic Ultimate form, he's badass. A vampire Tyrant with a badass army, a badass castle in Digiworld who wanted to conquer also human world. Then, however, in Venom form he loses all intelligence and becomes a machine of only destruction (infact he kills also DemiDevimon, his loyal servant, without reason) so it loses lot of power aside the stats and size. In Malo form he returns intelligent, but it's more cool the basic form as look.

    With how Digimon have evolved over time, the villains' from the first two adventure series could form a even greater villian team.
    Myotismon and Piedmon could DNA Jogress to Voltobautamon (The Wiki mentions that the Dark Area forces Piedmon to absorb Myotismon, which the two try to gain control over the main body internally either staying as Voltobautamon or MaloMyotismon)
    Machinedramon 's lingering will could find a dying Chimeramon to form Millineummon
    Diaboramon could find it's way to be reborn again either to it's regular form, Armegemon again or Reapermon (since Keramon evolution line can turn into Reapermon)
    Then you have Apocalymon

    I grew up watching Digimon, but the thing is my favourite is Data Squad, and yet Myotismon is my favourite Digimon Villian

    People probably didn't know his new form was featured as a Dark General in Xros Wars and was later curbstomped by Beleezamon.

    the puppetmon episodes were heavy on the themes. The dark masters arc was when started getting real from then on.

    Can you talk about the Original Digidestined?
    The original Digidestined have defeated Apocalymon but in the movie, it only show dark Master. Do you think they did not defeat Apocalymon? The Dark Master that were fighting Original Digidestined were actually not the same one the 8 Digidestined fight. Because they were trying to destroy them together and not splitting each group.

    Zerodex, we have Guilmon and Gallantmon as good virus types and as a leading role. You can't just forget our boy

    Metal Etemon is the best villain because...because...well he sounds like Elvis, so that's pretty good.
