This article is about the franchise. For the anime, see Digital Monsters.

(short for Digital Monster) is a very popular Japanese series of children's merchandise, including toys, manga and anime, featuring monsters of various forms living in a "Digital World".

Overview


Digimon started out as a dueling digital pet similar to Tamagotchi, which was called "Digital Monster" and was released by Bandai on June 26, 1997. The Digital Monster toy was enormously successful, and four different colors of the toy were released in November of the same year. In December of the same year, the second generation of "Digital Monster" was released. Many have criticized it as a clone of Pokémon, as the Tamagotchi was released in 1997 as opposed to 1996, however Bandai was already working on Digimon in 1995. The Digimon Mini released in 2005 celebrates the 10th anniversary of the Digimon product), though it became popular in the United States before the latter. However, the Tamagotchi bears little resemblance to the Digimon TV show or card game. Digimon and Pokémon may have a few factors in common (being marketed toward children in North America and being part of the same genre), but differ in original target audience, concept, spirit and design.
