Digimon Savers/Awesome

"Kurata: Please! H-have pity on me!
 * . It was a very satisfying smackdown.
 * Episode 38 in its entirety: the final showdown with Belphemon and Kurata's long awaited end.
 * What makes it even better is that Kurata, the most Complete Monster in Digimon history,  Oh, and the following dialogue is an invention of the dub, which just goes to show that sometimes dubs can beat the originals in certain aspects.

Marcus: Pity is all I ever had for you, KURATA!!! (PUNCH!)"


 * The battle with Craniummon (basically, a colossal knight Digimon); Masaru stops Shine Greymon from getting stabbed with a spear approximately the size of a skyscraper by punching it. And it not only works, but it knocks Craniummon on his ass.
 * That's nothing, usually, it's the Digimon who defeat the enemy Mons. Masaru ended that fight by shattering Craniummom's unbreakable shield, with a blow from his bare fist.
 * Savers practically had one CMOA per episode. Usually it was Masaru punching the Monster of the Week in the face bare handed in order to get Agumon to evolve. Note that the very first MOTW was a 50-Foot tall chicken.
 * Nanami's is.
 * Touma revealing that
 * The entire final battle with Yggdrasil. AWESOME.
 * Yoshino gets one later, going up against some sort of test-of-strength punching machine. With her Digisoul powered up, she delivers a punch which overloads the machine.
 * The episode in which she battled Ivan was pretty awesome too. Particularly the BARREL SMASH!
 * What, no mention of her matador action against Cerberusmon in episode 30? She stood it down without fear and pulled off a very clever startegy in order to get Marcus to activate his Digisoul.
 * Rosemon had one in episode 37 of Savers: Agumon is inside his egg, MirageGaogamon about to get crushed by Kurata... When all of the sudden, she stops him by swinging her whip at him and shouting: "Don't forget that we're still here as well!"
 * And then several episodes earlier, killing a swarm of Dokugumon as Sunflowmon. Pretty much makes up for her horrible track record until then, don't you think?
 * Merukimon get's a fairly impressive one in episode 25 of Savers.
 * The dubbing team get one when they were faced with the little problem of Disney wanting a giant bomb Digimon gone. Thier solution? Turn it into a giant orange Digimon, let Kirk Thornton voice it and turn it into Don Patch. In short, they turned an editing situation into a Bobobo Bobobobo reference (which had completed its run shortly before Data Squad started). GET UP, STAND UP!
 * When Geo-Greymon and Gaogamon first tag-teamed Digmon, he went down hard!
 * Thomas breaking out of MetalPhantomon's spell and MachGaogamon's battle against him.
 * Yatagaramon's/Crowmon's first appearance.
 * Satsuma and Kudamon tend to make Big Damn Heroes entrances when they can help it, and how. First time was Quilimon basically curb-stomping the Bio-Hybrids. The second would be
 * Speaking of the Digimon movies, while Bokura no War Game is this troper's single favorite piece of animation in the entire franchise, the Digimon Savers movie, Activate the Burst Mode! is a close second. First of all -- there are no humans until the very end. Yes, this is a Digimon movie about the Digimon. Masaru, Touma and Yoshino have all been frozen, and Agumon, Gaomon and Lalamon are forced to conduct the battle with the help of a Mysterious Waif, Rhythm. This would just be interesting if not for the fact that Gaomon is a badass of the first order, Lalamon has sausage nunchucks, and Agumon is a big damn hero. Seriously. Gaomon goes all Jackie Chan on a bunch of Goblinmon, turns around and asks Lalamon for a sausage, Agumon breaks through to Burst Mode and Lalamon turns her goofiness into utter badassitude. It's a Non-Serial Movie, as Burst Mode has special plot relevance in the series proper, but it's still cool!
 * And the only human character who actually does anything, is, of course, Masaru. All the screentime he gets when he's not asleep is pure badass. When Agumon has no strength left to fight Argomon, who has now gone Mega, Masaru comes out of nowhere, and pulls a fucking Kamina before fufilling his punching stuff awesomely quota for the day by punching Argomon in the face and knocking the Godzilla sized monstrosity straight on his ass. Then he and ShineGreymon team up to tear Argomon a new one. I love this movie.
 * Marcus/Masaru gets one at the end of the series when you realize he is giving a giant middle finger to three seasons of Digimon series tradition by.
