I suppose it isn't the most blatant cartoon-as-toy-commercial I've ever seen. It seems slightly less craven than POKÉMON, for instance, in that regard. I do appreciate how it gives its protagonists a bit more room to breathe, for characterization purposes, than is customary for such shows. Similar to the twenty-minute premiere "episode zero," it sadly omits explanations of why the inciting events happen. Equally mysterious: the kids develop stronger bonds with their Digimon than, apparently, they had with anyone they'd left on Earth. Huh?
