Opening thoughts
A retelling of a fairy tale with no plot? Or another hidden dark episode?
Digimon Ghost Game Episode 18 “The Land of Children”
Petermon is be extremely creepy and kidnapping children so they can be children forever. Gammamon and Hiro are cleaning and Gammamon’s joyful screams on the roomba make me happy. Then two Hawkmon show up and say they came to him because he would never say no. Their human friend has been kidnapped.
Kiyoshiro is cosplaying a wizard and Jellymon and him break in to the kid’s house. His mother doesn’t remember him. Also children Digimon are dissapearing too.
The group find that Petermon is to blame. Jellymon evolves but Gammamon doesn’t because Hiro says his evolutions are unpredictable.
Petermon is taking the children to Never Ever Land, Petermon kidnaps the two Hawkmon and says that the group smell like grown ups.
Petermon is exceptionally creepy, the next morning the children all have the same dream as they are being controlled and their memories were erased. Petermon tries to kidnap Gammamon because he’s child like, so I’m glad that that’s relevant.
They use Gammamon as bait and he goes to a place where kids and children Digimon are playing. AN Elecmon wishes he was bigger absent mindedly and Petermon starts harrasing him.
The other children are able to sneak in, but Petemon returns and attacks. Angoramon and Jellymon evolve, but Petermon is mad at them for being adults, Petermon wakes up the children to hold them back. Petermon throws a knife and it almost hits Kazuma, so Hawkmon both evolve to Orcamon.
Gammamon then evolves to WezenGammamon and the kids think he’s very cool. An Elecmon evolves to Thunderballmon and then a bunch of other Digimon evolve.
Hiro says that not all grown ups lie and Hiro promises that he’ll be good and he promises him. And then CaptainHookmon shows up and it gets very gay.
