“Underrated music”
Don’t usually see Digimon games mentioned when video game music comes up.

30-Day Video Game Music Challenge Day 14: Vocals
“Music featuring vocals”
Digimon World Next Order’s in-game use of its theme song is an actual integration of “theme music power up” into gameplay, especially when you get ExE after losing.
Give it a Light Novel Title challenge!
The original post is here, but I read about it on Scott’s blog.
Ever notice how long and often silly most light novel titles are? What if more anime/manga/etc had titles like that?
My 10 Favorite Anime OPs of the 1990s
These are the ones most of my nostalgia is for.
10. King of Braves GaoGaiGar, “Yuusha Oh Tanjou!” by Masaaki Endoh
To be on the safe side, people with epilepsy might want to look away for the part from 0:36 to 0:45.
Song Challenge Day 18: Ringtone
“A song you want to be your ringtone”
It’s mostly an injoke that makes it so easy a pick, but I really do think “Butter-Fly” by Koji Wada, AKA the opening from Digimon Adventure, would be a good choice for one.

There are few musicians I respect more than Koji Wada, not only because I like his songs, but also because he returned to singing after overcoming throat cancer.
Song Challenge Day 6: A song I can relate to
“A song you can always relate to”
I though about several before deciding on one for this. It’s from a kids’ anime (Digimon Tamers), but I’ve never listened to the cynics who say that having big dreams makes you immature.
“The Biggest Dreamer” by Koji Wada. Dreaming really is the start of everything.

Digimon Adventure Tri is movies
Wasn’t Digimon Adventure Tri actually announced as a series? That’s certainly what everyone assumed; but it’s now been announced that instead it will be a series of six theatrical movies, and that the first one isn’t coming until November.
I don’t think this is very good news for anyone outside Japan, since it’s not really compatible with any of the more likely ways it would have been made officially available anywhere else.
Awesome Music Thursday: Minna no Christmas
There were original songs on the Digimon Christmas albums too. This is Minna no Christmas, by Koji Wada.

Digimon Christmas music: Mama ga Santa ni Kiss Shita
At the height of Digimon’s popularity, there were a huge number of Digimon CDs in Japan, including Christmas albums.
This is Veemon, Hawkmon, Armadillomon, Patamon, and Gatomon singing a half-Japanese/half-English version of “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus”. What else can I add to that?

Crossover Chaos: Multiverses
I’ve been writing a series of posts about crossovers, and I’m almost ready to bring it all together, but first, one more point about multiverses.
It makes sense to me that if a franchise has a multiverse, then any crossover with any part of it establishes being able to crossover with any part in a multiverse sense. Here’s a (certainly incomplete) list of franchises whose multiple continuities are established to be a connected multiverse and/or split timeline. (Notably, most “new universe” crossovers actually include at least one of these, making them effectively count the same as multiverse crossovers.)
