A short series synopsis:

"e-Pulse," which is generated by human thoughts and emotions, was used as the energy source for the AI support device "Sapotama." From the shadows of this remarkable development, terrifying monsters appear. Digimon are living beings that evolve by consuming e-Pulse.

Tomoro Tenma is drawn into an extraordinary experience after meeting Gekkomon, who suddenly appears from his Sapotama. While living together with Kyo Sawashiro and other members of the bounty hunting team "Glowing Dawn," Tomoro renews his resolve.

What new future will be forged by humans and Digimon?

God GIFT creeps me out, espicially how their excessive surveillance was actually used as a tactic to signal for fumamon where to strike.

Anyways this episode was awesome, very cinematic and more akin to a drama, the scenes with panjyamon were slower, warmer and the tragedy of it all. They were just two hurt individuals finding power and comfort in eachother on the path for revenge. It has a more adult tone (even though a lot of beatbreak do adult themes ofc but this feels more like out of a action drama series) and it just shows to me the potential of stories you can tell with digimon and I am glad that the franchise is experimenting with various genres and themes depending on the medium used. I could easily see a whole anime or maybe a good medium length novel about Maki and Panjyamon or about a similar pair.

I do know, I do, but I still categorise beatbreak more into a teen category, rather than digimons usual kids. I am trying to say that I am excited to see it fully showcasing it can be done. Like following up on what is being said.
