Digimon played a HUGE part in my childhood - after school my brother and I would flick Fox Kids and watch each episode then eagerly await the next episode the next day. We fell in love with the characters, from each of the kids and their backgrounds to their Digimon partners to the point we made up our own adventures with our own Digimon partners.
