Well, damn, that went through literally. The son-mother moment was graceful :3. Oh and nice little song this episode.

Pretty powerful stuff, adding another layer to Thomas's character.

Very sad episode.
Touma was there when his mother died, and that digimon showed him that memory again.
Agumon's reaction when he saw MachGaogamon was super funny!

Touching episode. Dense atmosphere and horror-like vibes. It makes you feel the anger and utter necessity to see this asshole Phantomon getting beaten to a pulp.

Another layer to Thomas character, he is the deepest one out of the bunch and it shows with episodes like this.

MachGaogamon looks pretty amazing, much better than RizeGreymon.

While I appreciated the look into Tohma's past, I feel like this was kind of a weak episode. The transition from Tohma seeing the nightmare to him breaking free of it was nearly non-existent. He just... suddenly was grateful for his mom, nothing really triggered it??? It didn't show him actually coming to terms with her death or her spirit reminding him to stay strong or anything, he just kinda... WAS OVER IT and then Gaogamon evolved into JetpackGaogamon lol.

Also I find it funny that their supplies all got destroyed by Ikuto's boomerang but somehow they have some cord to rappel down the sides of the buildings XD

Sunflowmon actually DID SOMETHING this episode too, I'm surprised. That Sunshine Beam took out lots of Dokugumons at once! Pretty cool. Since Yoshino fainted sick at the end of this episode, I'm assuming we're going to see her and Sunflowmon's breakthrough moment next episode.

Also I love Dokugumon, such a cool Digimon. The reaper guy (already forgot his name XD) was cool too.

That was a really sad memory. Thoma lost his mother tragically when he was just a little kid. Damn that Truck-kun.

MachGaogamon looks great.

I love how much thought is put into this season. Digimon reacts to human emotion so Phantomon eating their dream makes sense, but at the same time he's playing with fire. We saw Thoma having a hot on Masaru's mom earlier, turns out it's the idea of a mother that he reacted to. We also set up Yoshino's PTSD with this, which will likely be the key to her ultimate.
