If you didn't already know that I was a geek then you do now. Yes I was one of the kids who grew up watching shows like Pokemon and Digimon and you know what I loved them. However this is going to be about a little Digimon from the third season of the show (Digimon Tamers.) Now if any of you "The English Dub Sucks" people feel like complaining about the fact that I don't know anything about the Japanese version then you can just sit silently. I never knew anything about the Japanese version and I don't really feel like learning anything about it. Okay now I recently watched all of the episodes of Digimon I could find on youtube which took me up to Digimon Data Squad which I was just fine with not seeing that one.
So this is about one Digimon named Impmon and if you know the series then your probably thinking
"Andy you egotistical hunk of sexyness he wasn't even a major character until the middle of the season."
I would then say. "Shut up and make me a sandwich"
So sit silently and learn before I Digivolve into Ultra Andymon and step on you.
So Impmon is one of the most human like digimon in this series. He has a very humanlike appearance as well as attitude. He likes to act all tough and thinks very highly about himself despite his small size and low power level. Impmon is a very interesting character from the beginning because you know very little about him. You can tell he doesn't like the digimon who team up and work with humans and just seems to have ill feelings towards all humans. He will often cause problems for humans by attacking them randomly in attempts to scare them. He starts to form a love hate relationship with a digimon named Renamon. He seems to love her personality and style but hates the fact that she is a "slave" to a human.
Impmon was always envious of the "tamed" digimon because they can digivolve (change to the next more powerful form) and Impmon could not. He always wanted to digivolve but with out a tamer he could not. When the Deva's (The Deva "Twelve Heavenly Generals" are a group of twelve Ultimate-level Holy Beast Digimon that are derived from the Buddhist myth of the Twelve Heavenly Generals, deities who protected the Bhaiṣajyaguru. The Twelve Heavenly Generals were eventually conflated with the animals of the Chinese zodiac in Japanese Buddhism, and so the Deva are represent those figures. The Deva are followers of the Digimon Sovereigns, and each Sovereign has three Deva subordinates.) start to attack the Japan in search of a digimon named Calumon (who is the key to digivolution) Impmon decides he was going to battle the giant horse Deva named Indramon. The Deva is very vain and thinks he is the best thing since sliced bread which Impmon uses to his advantage by insulting him. However with Impmon only being a rookie level digimon and the Deva being super mega awesome powerful (I think I stated the Deva's Levels above but don't feel like checking.) Needless to say little Impmon got the snot kicked out of him but he never gave up and would not let the others help him. After the battle he was severely injured both in body and in mind. His ego crushed he wished he could be stronger and wanted to digivolve when a voice beckoned him into the Digital World. Where he would be given the power to Digivole if he destroyed the Tamers and their Digimon. Now this is where the main story of Impmon ends but the story of Beelzemon begins.
Beelzemon is the Mega form of Impmon and he is so freaking Awesome. Beelzemon is a play on the name Beelzebub which is synonymous with the devil. Beelzemon looks very human in this form having a human shaped body and even wearing a biker style outfit. He connects even farther with the human theme by having a shot gun he can use for his attacks as well as being in possession of a motorcycle. Which we see him get this in the most kick ass way driving it out of a pool of lava that it was thrown in after causing havok on with its cursed rider. He has about three non human characteristics a third eye and a tail.
Beelzemon showed he earned his devil like name by obliterating a bunch of Digimon just because he had the power to do so. He was then told to up hold his side of the bargain by attacking the Tamers and their partners. In one of there battles with the Tamers he committed one of the darkest acts seen in this type of show, He killed a main character named Leomon who was the beast king and partner to a girl named Juri Katou (Leomon has been established as a main character since season one and even though no other characters from previous seasons are around it is assumed that he is the origional Leomon because of the same voice and look.) He then absorbs Leomons Data deleting him and taking his power. Beelzemon even manages to single handedly destroy the monkey Deva (Literally with one hand) by grabbing his head and squeezing it until he was nothing but data which Beelzemon soon absorbs granting him the power of a Deva. Then when the Dog Deva attacks the Tamers Beelzemon lets them destroy the Dog before he took his data exclaiming "LONG LIVE THE DEVAS" as he takes the data. After a very long and hard fight Beelzemon is finally defeated but spared because Juri did not want to see any more people die even though she hated him for killing Leomon. The battle de-digivolved back into Impmon who is now incredibly weak. It will also lead us into Impmons next phase of development.
Impmon makes it back to the real world and really does feel bad about what he has done. He wishes he could make it up to Juri but first needs to see a couple kids. At this time the D-Reaper (a deletion program that has made its way from the digital world to the real world. Is destroying the world slowly. The D-Reaper has captured Juri and is using her to communicate. Impmon goes and visits a young boy and girl who turned out are his tamers. He ran away from them a while ago because all they did was fight over him. He went up to them and mushy words were exchanged leading for the boy to give Impmon his favorite toy gun after Impmon told them that he had to go fight the D-Reaper the boy hoped it would help him out. Impmon said I know it will kid as he digivolved into Beelzemon Blast Mode. Regaining the wings (Normal mode does not have wings) as well as the toy gun turning into a large arm mounted cannon. He then used this mode to attempt to free Juri from the D-Reaper even resorting to using Leomon's powerful move "Fist of the Beast King" hoping this would get Juri free but scares her more then anything. Beelzemon was then attacked by the D-Reaper almost ending in him getting deleted before being saved by one of the other Digimon. His data is starting to leave his body (Which means he is very close to death) and De-Digivolves back into Impmon. Once the D-Reaper is destroyed he asks for Juri's forgiveness even though he did not feel that he deserved it himself. However she did forgive him after seeing how hard he tried to save her. That is all from Impmon in this series until the movie based off this season came out but I haven't seen it.
Now I simply love Impmon his rough and tough attitude and his "Bada Boom" attack giving him a catch phrase that reminds me of a gangster. However his pure awesomness kicks in when he becomes Beelzemon and starts face squashing Devas. So those are my thought on Impmon and yes I am a geek.
