It was produced by [[Toei Animation]], and aired every Sunday at 9:00 a.m. on the [[Fuji TV]] network. In addition, a tie-in movie called ''Ultimate Power! Burst Mode Invoke!'' was released on [[December 9]], [[2006]]. [http://www.digimon-movie.com] ''Savers'' is the first ''Digimon'' program to be produced in almost four years, following 2002's ''[[Digimon Frontier]]''. This Anime is now returned on [[Disney XD]] in the [[United States]], airing at 4:30AM Eastern/3:30AM Central.

An English-language version was produced by [[Studiopolis]], in conjunction with Toei Animation USA and [[List of assets owned by The Walt Disney Company#Corporate|Disney Enterprises, Inc.]], and aired in North America on [[Toon Disney]]'s [[Jetix]] block from October 2007 to November 2008.
Unlike previous ''Digimon'' series, which were broadcast in English in Autumn of the same year as their Japanese release, there were a full eighteen months between the Japanese and English broadcasts, leading at first to some doubt as to whether the series would be dubbed at all. Not long after the discovery of an entry for the show on [http://www.toei-anim.com/ Toei's website], which featured anglicized names for some of the characters and the show's new English title, on [[April 25]], 2007, [[Disney-ABC Television Group|Disney's ABC Network]] announced that it had signed an agreement [http://icv2.com/articles/home/10460.html] with Toei Animation to license the show. On [[May 4]], director of previous ''Digimon'' series [[Jeff Nimoy]] confirmed that he had returned to direct the series, confirmed its English title, and revealed the majority of voice actors for the main cast of the series. ''Data Squad'' premiered on [[Jetix]] on October 1, 2007 at 8:30 PM. <ref>[http://withthewill.net/index.php?topic=4777.0 Data Squad Premiere Date and Time<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> Data Squad finally premiered in Canada the morning of Sunday September 7, 2008 after a long wait, the show is on Family Channel (Canada's Disney Affiliate). This is the first Digimon show to appear on that network as all other series in Canada could be seen on YTV. New Episodes air Sunday mornings while the prior weeks episode can be seen on Saturday mornings. The Japanese version is aimed at late teens ages: 16-21, while the English dub in the US is aimed at a younger audience for young kids ages 6–10 to make it more view-friendly.


==Plot==
The Digivice used in this series is the ''"[[Digivice#Digivice iC|Digivice iC]]"'', and its upgraded version, the ''"[[Digivice#Digivice Burst|Digivice Burst]]"''. The series is the first to feature the lead character not sporting a pair of goggles and have all main characters' Digimon digivolve to the same level. This series is also the second one where the last battle is fought in the Real World against a non-Digimon entity, the other one being ''[[Digimon Tamers]]''. Unlike the previous seasons, Digimon Data Squad took on more radical changes for the character designs ditching the style animation always used previously in favor of more traditional Japanese animation. Also, according to this series' composer, [[Ryota Yamaguchi]], this series was to take in a wider age group, and was aimed to also appeal to late teens, however, without ending it as a hobby anime. This is why the characters are much older (ranging from early teen to adult) and the story somewhat darker and mature in tone than in previous series. This is unlike in most past Digimon anime that are aimed at young children aged 6–10 and have younger and lighter stories. The English dub done by Studiopolis is edited to be younger, lighter, and more kid-friendly to children aged 6 to 10 years. Also, as requested by Digimon's sponsor, Bandai, in order to grab the older Digimon fans, Bandai wanted the reappearance of a Digimon from the old series, which was chosen to be the original main Digimon, Agumon. <ref>[http://withthewill.net/index.php?topic=3662.0 [WtW&#93; Translation of Yamaguchi Ryota's Notes on Digimon Savers!<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>
The Digital Accident Tactics Squad (DATS) is a government organization established to maintain the peace between the Real World and the Digital World, transporting any Digimon back to the Digital World. Marcus, a junior high school student, becomes one of the members for the organization. He learns that the Digimon Merukimon is opposing mankind. However, the past is revealed that the scientist Akihiro Kurata was responsible for invading the Digital World. He gained the support of the government to oppose all Digimon species, claiming they were a threat to mankind. When Kurata uses Belphemon, Marcus defeats them. Before dying, Kurata uses a bomb to make the Digital World merge with the human world. While the Digimon BanchoLeomon prevents the collision, Marcus meets King Drasil (Yggdrasil), the supreme ruler who attempts to protect the Digital World by destroying mankind, since they cannot exist in both dimensions. Marcus learns that his father, Spencer, was trapped in the Digital World for ten years, because Drasil possessed Spencer's body and BanchoLeomon kept the latter's soul. After Marcus defeats Drasil, Spencer's soul returns to his body. With both worlds restored, all Digimon partners return to their own world. Five years later, Marcus and his friends embrace their future.

===Recurring characters===
Kurata counted with the support of the Japanese government and important businessmen like Thomas' father on his plan to destroy all Digimon in the Digital World, claiming they were a threat to mankind. But this was only a facade to occult his main objective. He harnesses the energy of the Digimon he destroyed to power-up [[Seven Great Demon Lords#Belphemon|Belphemon]], one of the [[Seven Great Demon Lords|Seven Deadly Digimon]], and uses it in his attempt to rule the Human World, but his ambitions were shattered by the efforts of Marcus and his allies.

;{{nihongo|Kudamon|クダモン}}
Kurata's last act was triggering a bomb which collapsed the frontier between the Human and Digital Worlds, putting both en route of collision, which could have led to the destruction of both realms. The collision was halted by the desperate efforts of [[BanchoLeomon (Data Squad)|BanchoLeomon]] who ordered Marcus to search for [[King Drasil]], the god of the Digital World. When the DATS team finally met King Drasil, they discovered that his decision to deal the crisis unfolded was to protect the Digital World by destroying the Human World, as the two worlds could not coexist in the same dimension. To perform this task, he assembled his elite guard, the [[Royal Knights]].

But it was revealed that King Drasil took his father's body, and his soul was somehow preserved by BanchoLeomon, who was revealed to be Spencer's partner Digimon.

| colspan="6" | The main character of the series, Marcus Damon is the son of the researcher, Spencer Damon, who disappeared into the mysterious realm known as the [[Digital World]] almost 10 years ago. Loud and outspoken, Marcus calls himself "the number one street fighter in Japan." After encountering Agumon, he becomes the Digimon's partner after receiving a Digivice from the mysterious old man, Homer Yushima. Marcus and Agumon later become members of DATS in order to face tougher and stronger opponents. As the series progresses, he finds much more to fight for. As Agumon's partner, he claims full responsibility for Agumon's actions.

An Olympic-level boxer and a genius scholarly and tactically, he is a vital member of the DATS team. When Marcus joined DATS, Thomas was away in Europe, and when they finally met, they were at odds. However, they overcame their difficulties and have since become steady team-mates. Gaomon is Thomas' loyal Digimon partner, and is a focused and serious-minded warrior - he responds to Thomas's every order with a steadfast "Sir, yes sir!" (in the original Japanese version, he used the English phrase, "Yes, Master!"). In the Japanese version, Masaru often refers to him as "Tonma," a rarely used insult meaning "idiot" or "dope." In the English dub, Marcus often calls him Nerdstein.

Because Keenan was raised by Frigimon since he was a boy, when he is discovered he believes himself to be a Digimon. A servant of Merukimon, Keenan eventually hated all humans, but began to change his opinion as he learned his true origins. Falcomon is his partner and childhood friend, who does his best to help Keenan as he comes to grips with his humanity. Keenan looks up to Marcus as a big brother. Keenan is one of the first Japanese characters in the Digimon Anime's US Dub release to have a full Americanized dub name. For some reason he speaks with a ''Jungle Boy'' accent speaking in third person and replacing ''I'' with ''me'' despite all other digimon speak perfectly.

An important concept in the series is the '''D.N.A. Charge''' (which stands for Digimon Natural Ability; it is called '''Digi-Soul''' in the Japanese version), the main medium by which the humans in the series digivolve their Digimon. Essentially, it is some kind of energy aura that allows a Digimon to grow stronger, and is tied into a human's emotions.
:A mega-level Shaman Digimon who raised Keenan and met Spencer Damon a decade before the events of the series, believing there can be co-existence until Kurata's actions convinced Merukimon that humans are attacking the Digimon. But learning the truth from Kurata himself, Merukimon decided to try believing in Spencer's words again and sacrificed his life to save Keenan, Marcus, and the others from Kurata's Gizumon.

:The evil, hateful, and fierce mad scientist who is the antagonist of the first half of the series, Kurata was originally Spencer Damon's assistant during their exploration of the Digital World who believed Digimon are a threat to humans as he seeks to completely destroy most of them with his artificial Gizumon while subjugating the rest for world dominion. When the Tactics Squad learned his true plans, he turns the Confidentiality Ministry on them while awakening Belphemon. Later, he takes control of Belphemon himself.

:King Drasil is a host computer being in the form of a tree, serving as the main antagonist of the final half of the series when he took Kurata's actions as threat to the Digital World and sends the Royal Knights to attack humanity in retaliation. Drasil initially used the body of Marcus's father Spencer Damon before transferring into his King Drasil 7D6 avatar body, ultimately deciding to destroy both worlds to start anew. But upon being defeated by Marcus and Agumon, Drasil accepts his defeat and enters a deep sleep after reviving Spencer.

==Production==
The D.N.A. usually manifests as a glowing aura around the user's hand, which is then channeled through the Digivice with the command of '''"D.N.A. Charge"'''. Unlike in the actual series, the previews for the series depicted this energy to be in visually recognisably forms, such as flames for Marcus, a miniature whirlwind for Thomas, and a much larger blossom for Yoshi; the auras in the actual series bear slight resemblance to their preview counterparts, and are much smaller.
The series was announced during the December 2005 [[Jump Festa]] convention in Japan<ref>{{cite web|last1=Macdonald|first1=Christopher|title=Digimon Fifth TV Series Announced|url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2006-01-24/digimon-fifth-tv-series-announced|website=[[Anime News Network]]|access-date=December 31, 2018|date=January 24, 2006}}</ref> with advertisements showing a remolded Agumon as the lead Digimon. The name of the series was later revealed in January 2006 with the character designs coming a month later. The characters were designed by Sayo Aoi. It is the final Digimon series to be produced in 4:3.

A stronger version is the so-called ''' D.N.A Full Charge''', which erupts around the entire body. '''D.N.A Charge Overdrive''' is the term used to allows the Digimon to digivolve into their Mega form. When activating Burst Mode, the command is '''Charge! D.N.A Burst Mode'''.

===Digivice===
{{main|Digivice}}
The digivice is the primary tool used by any human with a Digimon partner. The primary Digivice used by the characters in the series is the '''Data Link Digivice''' ('''''Digivice iC''' in Japan''<ref>The term "Digivice iC" is not actually used in the show, but is used here to identify it in comparison to other digivices.</ref>). It is used for multiple purposes, the most important of which is the channeling of the human's D.N.A., which allows for the Digimon to digivolve (''evolve" in the japan dub). It can also "store" a partner inside of it, and released back in the world with the command of "realize". Different digivices are also used by the series villains.
Later on, the Digivice is upgraded into the Data Link Digivice Burst (Digivice Burst in Japan and the Digivice Mega Burst in toys due to be released in America). which can channel the full power of the D.N.A. and activate Mega (''Ultimate'') digivolution. It also reportedly has another ability called the '''Air Signal''', which can be used to activate Burst Mode or (this only involves Marcus) can be used to summon the GeoGreySword for ShineGreymon.

===DATS (Digimon Data Squad/Digital Accident Tactics Squad)===
DATS is an organization dedicated to keeping the peace between the human and Digital Worlds, by stopping any Digimon that appears in the real world, and returning it to the Digital World in the form of a Digi-Egg (''digitama''). DATS is apparently a worldwide organization, as Thomas was known to visit the European branch prior to episode three. It is unknown if there is an American branch, or one elsewhere, but the majority of Digimon activity occurs in Japan. The Japanese branch, at least, falls under the direct jurisdiction of Japan's '''Confidentiality Ministry'''.

Due to the manipulation of [[Akihiro Kurata]], the core team of DATS operatives in Japan was broken up, and the building that housed DATS was annihilated. In later episodes they operate secretly from underground after the core team of DATS comes back together, though not officially. After the Partner Digimon (including Biyomon), Gotsumon and Marcus Daimon returned to the Digital World, DATS is permanently dissolved and five years later most of the members of DATS have moved on and have jobs at the local police station, except for Thomas who cures his sister's illness and wins a Nobel Peace Prize and Marcus, who stays in the Digital World with Agumon as a sort of peacekeeper.

===Digital World===
{{main|Digital World}}

The Digital World is the otherworldly realm, which as it is in other series, formed due to the growing worldwide digital network. Though we have only seen a part of it in the series, locations include a forest ruled over by [[Cherrymon]], and the Infinite Ice Ridge, the ruling place of Merukimon. The Digital World is connected to the real world by way of Digital Gates, most of which open incidentally. For some reason, the barrier between both worlds is breaking down. Finally, as stated by Merukimon, an omnipresent god of the Digital World exists, known as '''King Drasil'''.

{{main|Digimon Savers: Ultimate Power! Activate Burst Mode!!}}
:The movie is in fact a 22 minute story without any continuity to the series. Its plot revolves around Agumon, Gaomon and Lalamon, whose partners are put into an eternal sleep, along with the rest of the humans, because of a mysterious thorn that spread throughout the city. After saving Rhythm, a Digimon in the form of a little girl, they hear from her that the thorns are the work of an Ultimate Digimon, named Argomon, and the four set out for the villain's castle to confront him.


===Video Games===
===Video games===
The anime received five related video games.
As it is part of a resurgence of the Digimon franchise, Digimon Data Squad has a number of related [[video games]] associated with it.


* '''[[Digimon World DS]]''': A game featuring several Digimon Savers characters, but does not focus on them. It can arguably be seen as a side-story to Digimon Savers. The game, released in America before the concept of Data Squad, uses the original Japanese names of the DATS team, who appear in certain quests.
* ''[[Digimon World DS]]'' features several ''Digimon Data Squad'' characters, but does not focus on them. As the game was released internationally before ''Data Squad'' was dubbed into different languages, it retains the original Japanese names of the DATS team, who appear in certain quests.
* '''[[Digimon World Data Squad]]''': A game focusing on the primary characters of the series, and which presents an original story that apparently runs parallel to the anime. It involves the members of DATS coming into conflict with the [[Seven Great Demon Lords]].
* ''[[Digimon World Data Squad]]'' focuses on the primary characters of the anime, but tells a different story from it. It involves the members of DATS coming into conflict with the Seven Great Demon Lords.
* '''[[Digimon World: Dawn and Dusk]]''': Sequel to Digimon World DS, a set of two games with slightly different stories. At the end of the game, the four main characters from Data Squad appear to battle the main character.
* ''[[Digimon World: Dawn and Dusk]]'' are sequels to Digimon World DS with slightly different stories from each other. At the end of the game, the four main characters from ''Data Squad'' appear to battle the main character.
* ''[[Digimon Masters]]'' is an MMORPG where players assume the roles of the DATS team members.

==International versions==
===Differences in the English dub===
{{Unreferenced|date=September 2008}}
Like the previous ''Digimon'' seasons, ''Digimon Data Squad'' is [[Editing of anime in American distribution|edited for broadcast]] in various ways, for various reasons. Chiefly, there is the need to meet broadcasting standards for its young target audience, to which end moments of human violence are the most common subject of such alteration; for instance, scenes of punches or thrown weapons may be trimmed or modified slightly to remove or obscure the actual moment of impact; any instances of blood (rare to begin with) are digitally removed; and attacks that were shown to blast ''through'' characters in the original version are merely shown to strike them on one side and not puncture their body. In a similar vein, partial nudity, along with sexually suggestive clothing or camera angles, tend to either be painted over, or cut entirely (most notably, the middle of Rosemon's Digivolution sequence and Burst Mode, featuring closeups of her breasts and posterior, is consistently removed in every episode it appears in).

For the purposes of cultural streamlining, intended to make the show more understandable or palatable to Western audiences, many instances of Japanese text (on signs, for instance) are digitally edited to English or airbrushed out. Along the same lines, currency is switched from Japanese yen to American dollars, although Japan is still acknowledged as the setting of the series and certain cultural concepts like [[chopsticks]] and ''[[manjū]]'' remain. Like previous ''Digimon'' dubs, the original score of the series, including its opening and ending sequences, is replaced with new music, although this season departs from the orchestral score of past seasons and opts for a rock-based soundtrack by Thorston Laewe. In tandem with this, the opening and closing sequences of the show are brand new, composed of clips from the original Japanese opening and various episodes.

''Data Squad'''s dub also features several noticeable departures from previous dubbed seasons, including the use of the sound effects from the original Japanese version, and addition of title cards and previews for the next episode (different to those featured in the Japanese version). Generally speaking, the script and tone of the show adhere much more closely to the Japanese version than past Digimon seasons, dialing back on the insertion of dialogue and humor not present in the original, although as one would expect, references to obscure aspects of Japanese culture that Western viewers will not understand are replaced with an equivalent American concept. The only exception is the manjū that Marcus talks about and gets in "The Vile of Vilemon" even though most of the Japanese kana are erased and the scenes showing the Japanese Yen are cut.

Even for its purpose just like with the Japanese text on the Digimon Analyzers in Digimon Adventure and Digimon Adventure 02, the digivices have the words, "EVOLUTION," "PERFECT EVOLUTION," and "ULTIMATE EVOLUTION" kept and left out unedited instead of being changed to "DIGIVOLUTION," just like on the digivices in Digimon Tamers. Even lots of Digimon's attacks that are named for weapons or inappropriate content such as RiseGreymon's Trident Revolver are used or left out unchanged to make the show close to the original Japanese version. (However, the bullet effect was changed to lasers for content reasons). Also when Japanese writing is translated to English, measurements are all in the Metric units only like with on Marcus's worksheet in "A Birthday Kristy Will Never Forget!" Despite all these edits, the Digimon anime series has a lot more Americanization and cultural streaming and even less Japanese text remaining in the dub than in past seasons. One of the few Japanese text remaining in the dub is that on the Digivolution sequences (except for Yatagaramon/Crowmon, ShineGreymon, MachGaogamon, and Rosemon) as well as the Japanese characters on the bag of potato chips that Agumon eats in "The Vile of Vilemon." As thought that if one of the Digimon Data Squad episodes were to be set in China or some Chinatown or Chinese city, the Chinese characters and Chinese text would be left out unedited and kept unlike those of 4Kids's.
But since that Disney will dub the Digimon Data Squad Movie instead of Studiopolis, it will leave out most of the Japanese writing and text unedited just like past seasons.

"A Birthday Kristy Will Never Forget!" featured perhaps the largest, most visible, sustained edit from any of the English dubbed ''Digimon'' series. At the mandate of [[Jetix]], the episode's main villain, BomberNanimon - a giant, walking bomb - was re-imagined as "Citramon", a giant fruit Digimon, digitally repainted orange and with a stem and leaf in place of his fuse. The bombs he throws are colored green, and explode with a shower of juice that threatens to ''flood'' the amusement park he attacks, rather than blow it up.

Digimon franchise

Digimon Data Squad, known in Japan as Digimon Savers (デジモンセイバーズ, Dejimon Seibāzu), is the fifth anime television series in the Digimon franchise, produced by Toei Animation. The series aired in Japan on Fuji TV from April 2006 to March 2007.[2] A standalone film based on the series was released on December 9, 2006.[3]

An English-language version was produced by Studiopolis, in conjunction with Toei Animation USA and Disney Enterprises, Inc., and aired in North America on Toon Disney's Jetix block from October 2007 to November 2008.

Plot

[edit]

The Digital Accident Tactics Squad (DATS) is a government organization established to maintain the peace between the Real World and the Digital World, transporting any Digimon back to the Digital World. Marcus, a junior high school student, becomes one of the members for the organization. He learns that the Digimon Merukimon is opposing mankind. However, the past is revealed that the scientist Akihiro Kurata was responsible for invading the Digital World. He gained the support of the government to oppose all Digimon species, claiming they were a threat to mankind. When Kurata uses Belphemon, Marcus defeats them. Before dying, Kurata uses a bomb to make the Digital World merge with the human world. While the Digimon BanchoLeomon prevents the collision, Marcus meets King Drasil (Yggdrasil), the supreme ruler who attempts to protect the Digital World by destroying mankind, since they cannot exist in both dimensions. Marcus learns that his father, Spencer, was trapped in the Digital World for ten years, because Drasil possessed Spencer's body and BanchoLeomon kept the latter's soul. After Marcus defeats Drasil, Spencer's soul returns to his body. With both worlds restored, all Digimon partners return to their own world. Five years later, Marcus and his friends embrace their future.

Video games

[edit]

The anime received five related video games.

  • Digimon World DS features several Digimon Data Squad characters, but does not focus on them. As the game was released internationally before Data Squad was dubbed into different languages, it retains the original Japanese names of the DATS team, who appear in certain quests.
  • Digimon World Data Squad focuses on the primary characters of the anime, but tells a different story from it. It involves the members of DATS coming into conflict with the Seven Great Demon Lords.
  • Digimon World: Dawn and Dusk are sequels to Digimon World DS with slightly different stories from each other. At the end of the game, the four main characters from Data Squad appear to battle the main character.
  • Digimon Masters is an MMORPG where players assume the roles of the DATS team members.
