Digimon Adventure is arguably the most popular incarnation of the Digital Monsters, being the first animated series to introduce the young cast of characters attempting to save both the real and digital worlds. Running for 54 episodes, the popular series made its way to the states on Saturday mornings under the Fox Kids! banner. 13 movies based on the digital monsters’ franchise were created in conjunction with the television series.

What would Digital Monsters be without making an appearance in video games. With a series of games spanning from Digimon Detective: Cyber Sleuth to Digimon World: Next Order, these creatures have managed to find some great representation across numerous mediums.

The Digimon series was originally conceived by Bandai, Toei Animation, and WiZ in 1997 as a way to capitalize on the virtual pet craze sparked by Tamagotchi. The franchise focus on its titular “Digital Monsters,” monsters that live in a parallel, digital world that came from mankind’s technology. The franchise had its first anime adaptation, Digimon Adventure, which focuses on a group of children known as the DigiDestined (or “Chosen Children” in Japan) that are transported to the world of Digimon and have to fight the various evil digital beasts that roam the land.
