Now that Ken’s off his throne, apparently it’s time to meet some new digivolutions? We have some feedback on the eternal dub vs. sub debate, and then we talk about digivolution plotting, what it means to be a “real Digimon,” and the Ichijouji bros. Also, we learn that Kari is the first shipper. You can find the full show notes for this episode and leave comments at http://podigious.com/206/.
