Digimon Tamers English Sub & Dub

About Digimon Tamers

Digimon Tamers blends adventure, fantasy and comedy by Toei Animation (2001). Below is a fresh retelling of what the story is about. At its core: Digimon Tamers takes place in a realm where the popular Digimon franchise is all the rage, consisting of a cartoon, video games, and the trading card game. Takato Matsuda is a huge Digimon fan that's particularly obsessed with the card game, and constantly daydreams about the universe therein.

Soon after, one day, he finds an enigmatic blue card, which he slides through a scanner toy to use in the popular clash game. His toy suddenly glows and transforms into a Digivice, and Takato's fan-made design, Guilmon, materialises in front of him. Thrilled by the prospect of having a real-life Digimon, Takato embraces his new partner, and his adventures as a Digimon Tamer begin.

With adventure at the core, exploration, new locations and a steady sense of momentum drive the story. If you count yourself among anyone who enjoys travel-the-world storytelling, put it on your list.
