Bandai Announces Digimon Liberator for 2024

Leave a comment

Back in November, Bandai released an odd and cryptic teaser about an upcoming project hitting the Digimon TCG.

Some fans were hopeful it was an announcement for an online client, while others threw around terms like NFTs. I thought it was going to be an anime or short because of the new characters featured in the trailer. There has been a lot of speculation since then, and today we got an official announcement.

Bandai has announced the Digimon Liberator web comic for next year. We didn’t get much information outside the trailer, some character design, and an official website, but there will be another update in January. I can only presume the manga is about kids playing the Digimon TCG.

Fans who were expecting an online client were rightfully disappointed. People who have no interest in lore or these online free projects share in this disappointment. I feel bad for the folks who stayed up late or woke up early to catch the announcement live to receive news that wasn’t worth the sleep deprivation. 

I am a little disappointed that it won’t be an animated series, but I’ll take another Digimon story in whatever form I can get it. After Pokémon: Path to the Peak, I am hopeful for a good story about playing the Digimon. The art is cool, and it might get adapted if it does well. I just hope that this gets a proper English translation. 

We also got an announcement for the 25th Digimoncon happening in 2024. I’ll be covering both the event and the update on the web comic. Stay tuned for that. If you enjoy these updates, make sure you leave a like, comment, follow, and share this with your friends. You can also always buy me coffee!

All the Black cards from Animal Colosseum – Digimon Card Game

Animal Colosseum releases on January 19th, so let’s look at the black cards hitting the format. There is a bit of overlap with my previous post. The monkeys are specifically spectacular, especially the Etemon. I love the flavor of the card and how vibrant the concert seems. Black is my least favorite color of the set so far, but I still see a couple of cards I’d love in my binder.

The Animal Colosseum [EX05] theme booster for the Digimon Card game releases on January 19th. The set has is introducing some new Digimon, mechanics, and a whole lot of flavor. Let’s get excited by looking at the Red cards revealed so far. Usually the purple cards are my favorite, but something about the art on Zhuqiaomon Ace has red going first. The red cards have a lot of cool cards for fans of the Digimon Dawn game. I never played the game, but I am a huge fan of the vibrant colors and styles.

Digimon Card Game Gift Box 2023 out in time for the holidays!

Leave a comment

 The Blast Ace booster has been released, and it’s a cool set. Since we are so close to the holidays, I want to remind you about the Digimon Card Game Gift Box 2023 (BG03) and its very pretty set of promos. Now the Gift Box isn’t the best way to get cards, but it is an easy way to get alt arts. In any TCG, it is always better to buy the singles you want. If you like cracking packs, There is nothing wrong with buying a booster box. You want these box toppers in your collection.

 When buying any cards, make sure you support your LGS. If that isn’t an option, you can always find Blast Ace and other Digimon products on TCG Player. 

Digimon Card Game Gift Box 2023 includes:

4 x Blast Ace Booster Packs

1 x Acrylic sheet with damaged counters and memory counter

1 x promo card (Angewoman, WereGarurumon, MetalGremon, Lady Devimon)

The Gift Box retails for $19.99, which is fine if you want the promos. I wish there were at least two copies of each promo, but I guess Bandai needs the money. Do NOT pay scalper prices on this product when you can pick it up at Target for MSRP. It sucks that Target sends you a random box, but it’s the cheapest option at the moment. TCG Player carries the Gift Box, but they are a little crazy with their prices as of writing this. 

If you are trying to build a meaningful collection and enjoy cracking packs, the booster box is the way to go. If you want to buy cards to build a competitive deck, a mix of singles and starter decks is the best solution. But if you need these promos, or have a tamer in your life to shop for, Digimon Card Game Gift Box 2023 product is solid. Go pick yours up today!

Digimon Adventure 02: The Beginning hits select theaters november 8 – 9 and we’re getting promos!

Leave a comment

Digimon Adventure 02: The Beginning will be playing at select theaters across the United States on November 8 and 9 through a special Fathom event. This is great news for fans of Digimon Adventure 2 because it brings back those lovable characters in a new adventure 20 years after the events of the original. If you don’t remember what happened, have never seen it, or simply need a refresher, the entire season is up on the official Toei Animation YouTube.

I’ve already bought my ticket and somehow convinced my wife to go, I can only hope it’s good enough for her to watch more Digimon with me. She did enjoy Ghost Game, so maybe there is a chance. You can pick up tickets to the show for $15 on the official Fathom page. Make sure you get to the show early because the first 50 attendants will get a 3-card promo pack for the Digimon TCG. They may not be the coolest, but it is a nice gesture. 

The Promo Cards

Digimon Adventure 02: The Beginning Set ($80)

Now if you need more movie-themed cards for your collection, you might want to look at the Digimon Adventure 02: The Adventure set on Premium Bandai. The set costs $80 and comes with:

  • 30 Digimon cards (15 unique cards x 2 each)
  •  50 Imperialdramon: Dragon Mode Sleves
  •  5 Special Digitama Sleaves
  •  1 Rubber Playmat
  •  1 Storage Box

These promos definitely look a lot better than the ones you’ll be getting at the show, but it’s up to you how much you enjoy this series to justify the price tag. Preorders are open till November 27, or until supplies run out. The set ships in June.
