  • Digimon's Royal Knights, what would their evil equivalents be? If the Royal Knights each had a truly evil counterpart what would those Digimon be?

      Honestly I'd like to see if Hadesmon would recruit Greek monster Digimon to counter attack against the Olympus 12 and there shenanigans or lack thereof because they're very different from their inspirations.

      Royal Knights are Lawful Neutral, but in the most of the Digimon media they are the main Antagonists:
      -Digimon Chronicles
      -Digimon X Evolution
      -Digimon Frontier
      -Digimon Savers
      -Digimon Cyber Sleuth.
      We need more of they acting as Heroes, becuase the whole point with the Royal Knights was subverting the expectations of they being the good guys but instantly killing and revealing their immorality. Now, we are used of they being evil and is not longer a surprise when it happens.

    I think Lordknightmon has other feminine traits.
    It's quite skinny, with a waist to hip ratio more feminine than masculine if you ask me. Not that uncommon among humanoid digimon, but the masculine ones also have broad chest/shoulders to go along with it.
    Also the chest armor is protruding forward, adding to that more feminine overall shape

      Technically it's canon that gender shifts around vaguely and swaps a lot in Digimon. If a design isn't explicitly male or female presenting (like, a humanoid with visible skin or tight clothes) their gender can alternate wildly or just not matter. Hell, Angemon can directly digivolve into Angewomon in a lot of the games.
      LordKnightmon and Alphamon are two Knights that make good examples, and I'm pretty sure Magnadramon was female in the X-Antibody movie. It's kinda easy to customise their voices since they're so armored.

  • @ghen492
    @ghen492 ปีที่แล้ว +25

    I personally would have made Craniamon's Counterpart be Shinegreymon Ruin Mode. This is mainly due to the fact that the continuity that Craniamon had the biggest role in was in Data Squad/Savers, and I believe is the only continuity where his shield is actually completely shattered by none other than Markus/Masaru himself. This could be cool comparison to where Markus/Masaru's mistakes take form to be Craniamon's Main Enemy. And with Craniamon being Yggdrasil's most loyal knight it makes sense for he to be the one to stand against the "sins" of the mortal who stood against their god most to the point where he laids his hands on the body of said god (aka beat the shit out of Yggdrasil in his Dad's body that one time). Though I realize this sounds like I'm making more of an arguement for Markus/Masaru being Craniamon's counterpart more than actual Ruin Mode.

    Something worth pointing out is a lot of Royal Knights (and RK adjacent digimon) share the same face/mouthplate/"fang" designs, and some EVIL Digimon have the same motif: Diaboromon and Arcadimon in particular. It can be hard to see in the bandai art since so much of it is low resolution, but some of it can be made out, and the "Diablomon's Counterattack Original Soundtrack" cover shows close up looks at Omnimon, Imperialdramon Paladin, and Diaboromon's faces too. There's actually other anatomical similarities between Omnimon and Diaboromon (both have a central chest gem, both have a similarly shaped torso, etc. Finally, in te X chroncile storyline, a Keramon X egg is adopted by Jesmon to raise as a Royal Knight. So I woulda picked Diaboromon for one.

  • @yamthenokia8322
    @yamthenokia8322 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Very nice picks for each Digimon, although if I may, I'd suggest that rather than Dark Knightmon X, Grey Knightsmon would fit more as Lord Knightmon's counterpart.
    Reasoning for this is the fact that 1, Grey Knightsmon looks considerably even more brutish than Lord Knightmon who gives off a more elegant aura,
    2. Grey Knightsmon's penchant for mowing everything down fits nicely as a parallel to Lord Knightmon's overall ruthlessness and apathy to others,
    And 3. Both of them wield powerful weapons suited for charging and breaking defense. While Grey Knightmon's Drill Lance which can mow down anyone, regardless of defense, with his Greymon half having cannons that can fire flame tornadoes and dark shots, Lord Knightmon has a pile bunker, which in fiction is a retractable spike weapon created for piercing armor.
    Not to mention that in many stories featuring knights, they often have the goal of slaying the dragon, which are usually depicted as villains, for the greater good. So while Lord Knightmon, despite being the token amoral teammate, still has a sense of justice and resembles a more traditional knight in a way, Grey Knightsmon adds a hint of dark irony of both a knight that is willing to do anything for power as well as teaming up with a dragon to do so with his general appearance looking more like a dark lord/knight-dragon fusion.
    And also because Grey Knightsmon got a Reference Book page.

    Also, as you yourself and other have commented the royal knigths or at leasy some of them are very often used as antagonist, even sometimes split in halves with some helping the protagonist and others being against them like in some videogames. It would actually be cool to have the royal knigths in all their glory band together to defend the digital world. Don't get me worng, I like the angle of them being "guardians of order, champions of Yggdrasil" meaning that if maintaning order or doing what Yggdrasil wants is messed up... well we have seen how that goes and it's cool, it;s just that it would be nice for them as a collective to be the good guys for once.

I always preferred the Fighter Mode's color-scheme to the Paladin Mode, yet I also like swords, so Black Imperialdramon Fighter Mode feels like the perfect compromise between the two.

Caught it the second time, once I was more familiar with them, albeit slightly! One positive about the pandemic, at least it let me catch up on a lot of Digimon Lore! Dark Souls Lore as well, now I come to it!

    That's a really cool idea! Although you could say the Royal Knights have a groop of primary nemesees already in the Demon Lords, having a group that directly parallels them like this would be really nice. The Demon Lords already having a connection like that to the Royal Knights makes me think that they shouldn't be in consideration for a new group like this, but at the same time, we only got so much to work with, some overlap is probably impossible. I can't think of any others that could really change Belphemons place as an evil, freely mode-changing Digimon, for example. Although I feel BelialVamdemon should've found its way in there somehow as well.

  • @deuntaethomas7437
    @deuntaethomas7437 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    My pick for the Royal Knights dark counterpart:
    Group name: Ignoble Lords of Justice
    1. Alphamon ➡️➡️ Millenniummon series ⏩ both are supreme gods of time, both have other forms (alphamon being the ultimate good god mode of the dorugora for doru series while Justimon is the mega form of the fusion of monodramon and Millenniummon). Can be that his desire to meet his tamer causes him to join.
    2. Omegamon ➡️➡️ Chaosmon ⏩ canonically is omegamon's rival, transcends both good and evil, both are dragon and beast fusion knights where the dragon sword is swapped for a beast sword and the beast cannon is swapped for a beast sword. Can be that his constant threat of existence erasure by yggdrasil causes him to join.
    3. Ulforceveedramon ➡️➡️ Chronomon Destroy Mode ⏩ Ulforceveedramon Future Mode is a canonical super ultimate level digimon and so is Chronomon Destroy Mode and Holy Mode. Canonically is superior to a base Alphamon and with it being a holy bird digimon and Ulforceveedramon being a holy dragon I put him him.
    4. Jesmon ➡️➡️ Bagramon ⏩ Even though Bagramon is a corruption of the angel Gabriel (an angel that never falls and remains loyal to the most high god) the biblical connotations are clear and because Lucemon already belongs to a group I'll take him. Founder of the group to enact it own justice after reforming it's old ways.
    5. Gankoomon ➡️➡️ Shroudmon ⏩ Shroudmon is a digimon very, very similar to Gankoomon in that it is a being that uses it's fist for combat. Both digimon share the fact that they are designed based off of historical Japanese figures with Shroudmon based off of the asura demon and asura (violent path) martial arts while Gankoomon is based off of a stubborn Japanese father troup. Joins for greater power.
    6. Duftmon ➡️➡️ Tactimon ⏩ both are known as tactical gods whose very presence on the battlefield guarantees their allies victory. Canonically beat Omegamon with Bagramon. His own justice and loyalty to Bagramon causes him to join.
    7. Dukemon ➡️➡️ Arcturusmon ⏩ Both have holy counterparts to themselves but unlike Dukemon who seals away his inner darkness Arcturusmon merges with his inner light into Proximamon to demonstrate unfathomable holy and demonic powers that can instantly destroy and recreate the digital world. His justice is unknown at the moment but when he gains his light a magnificent being is born.
    8. Sleipmon ➡️➡️ Rasenmon: Fury Mode ⏩ The mythical beasts. Rasenmon Fury Mode is the mythical beasts based off the nine tailed fox while Sleipmon is based off of the eight legged steed sleipnir. Overtaken by the emotions of others.
    9. Magnamon➡️➡️ Darkkightmon ⏩ both are basically ultimate (perfect) level digimon that display power up to the mega and when they obtain the x-antibody they both become true mega (ultimate) level digimon with Darkkightmon X being canonically equivalent to both Barbamon X and Crusadermon X and he canonically managed to engage with the former two in a three-way battle before being interrupted by Duftmon X. Seeks his own brand of dark justice.
    10. Craniummon ➡️➡️ Voltobautamon ⏩ Craniummon looks evil and when he gains the x-antibody is become even more sinister looking. Voltobautamon is actually pure evil and is canonically stronger than the 7 great demon lords. From just looking evil to being just pure evil he is the perfect candidate in my opinion to parallel Craniummon. Also, both have a skeleton motif to their designs . The Judas of the group hellbent on doing the most evil.
    11. Dynasmon ➡️➡️ Plutomon ⏩ Dynas is the Latin translation of the Greco-Roman word for power, Pluto is also the Latin translation of the Greco-Roman word for wealth-giver and god of the underworld. Being digital gods having name etymologies based of of Greco-Roman mythology I place Plutomon as Dynasmon's counterpart. Can be that due to Jupitermon's refusal of letting it join the Olympos 12, and due to it canonically singlehandedly destroying its own digital world (illiad) and it's version of the royal knights (the Olympos 12) it joins this group in a new digital world to continue to enact its own brand of justice that the so called "lords of justice" deny it.
    12. Crusadermon ➡️➡️ Eosmon: Ultimate ⏩ Even though Crusadermon is a male in the original source materials based off of the elegant man (like byakuya) the newer materials and dub place him as female due to his color. Due to that I think Eosmon: Ultimate is a good candidate to be here.
    13. Examon ➡️➡️ Aegisdramon ⏩ Known to work with evil digimon as a part of the crack team. May be a jogress of two megas too like examon is a jogress of two megas. Dark justice is still justice.
    A short story on the basis of the group:
    In another digital world a group of exceptionally powerful mainly virus type digimon comes together to challenge status quo of the ruling class of 13 powerful digimon that maintain order and stability in this digital world. Gaining precedence from virus type digimon such as Grandiskuwagamon and Blackwargreymon, digimon who believe that the virus type digimon, which are usually depicted as evil digimon, can have their own brand of justice and can evolve past the status quo of viruses being purely evil. Though many of the members scheme for power or have joined to foil the notion of "virus justice" others have joined to see a change in the digital world for the better of all it's types and families of digital species.
    Lead by the wayward Bagramon, a powerful fallen angel demon lord that managed to survive the wrath of god, the very same Bagramon that tasted defeat at the hands of a fusion god, Bagramon this time around has seemingly learned from his past mistakes and seeks to instill order out of chaos. With the genuine hope of making the digital world a better and more peaceful place, even for viruses, Bagramon still finds himself going about things in a nefarious manner proving the old proverbial phrase true "old habits die hard."
