Digimon turns 25The legendary series that marked the childhood of an entire generation was a revolution for its time, creating a whole fan phenomenon. A milestone that was achieved without having things easy at all, since it had to share an era with its eternal rival: Pokémon.

With a cast of characters that were accompanied by Garumon or Arumon, Digimon became a phenomenon in early 1999. The success was such that hundreds of toys were created that the little ones asked for and even video games. And it didn’t just stop at a first anime, but it also broke away from Pokémon with a series focused on the older audience.

A legacy that continues to this day and that touched on issues and problems that are of concern today: cyber attacks. But the real question after 25 years since the first episode was broadcast is: How do Spaniards remember the legendary series?

“There was a very cute orange one, like a dinosaur.”I was coming home from school and I remember eating while watching Digimon”. Because no matter how much the world changes, we will always be united with these beings who gave us such good times.
