"Digimon Savers", or better known as "Digimon Data Squad" in the USA, is the fifth series of the popular franchise revolving around the monsters of the virtual world and their partners.
As all seasons before, the fifth series too had been edited a bit. As usual the opening and ending were made anew. Unlike previous openings this one wasn't replaced with a monotonous rap song, but with a normal, new song. The titlescreen for the episode was also changed, just like the preview for the next episode. Those are typical changes for the US version. The translation itself is good, but Agumon refers to Masaru (or Marcus in the US version) as "boss", while he calls him "Aniki" (brother) in the Japanese version. Most likely this was changed because it could be seen as an analogy to the Yakuza, which have a family-like hierarchy. The order for comparisons is: Left: Japanese version Right: US Version This report is about: Episode 05 US title: Digital World here we come Japanese title: デジタルワールド突入! ドリモゲモンの罠 About this episode: In this episode a bloodstain on Thomas' leg was removed. He got injured during a fight and in some shots you see the result of it. Besides that a direct hit got exchanged with some comiclike CG animation, just like in episode 1. There is no time difference in this episode, not counting opening and ending. 0:10:06
