==Quotes==
"And the Digimon Emperor built this? Couldn't he have stayed with model airplanes, like the rest of us?"
:- Tai, Matt, and Izzy check out information on Kimeramon.
"Now that I have Kimeramon, nothing can stop me from ruling this world, not even some stupid voice!"
:- Ken's starting to lose it.
Agumon: "Very efficient, Gabumon."
Gabumon: "Thanks, Agumon.You were pretty hot yourself."
Tentomon: "What am I, invisible? So sue me! I don't have dragon's breath! Let's see you guys try flying!"
:- Tentomon's very jealous of Agumon and Gabumon's fire power.
"We're just gonna have to trust them. This time, they're on their own."
:- Tai's response to Matt's concern for the safety of the new team.
T.K.: "Wow, it looks like something out of a science-fiction movie."Davis: "Yeah, and I'm the hot-shot pilot who rescues Princess Kari from the bad space guys."Kari: "He said science-fiction, not complete fantasy."
:—Davis, dream on.
"Figures. How come the engine room's never on the same floor as the front door?"

"I've got that shrinking feeling."
:—Digmon before reverting back to Upamon.
Ken: "Wait a minute. Those little Digimon. I've seen them before. Now I remember. It was at that soccer game, when I first met those kids. They're so little..."

Ken: "What?! I never thought of it before. Human babies...?"
:- Ken starts to realize the truth about the Digimon.
"I just can't forget what happened. We had to sit around and watch as this mix-n-match monster destroyed everything, and it didn't matter who got in his way. I don't know about the rest of you, but I can't stand by and let that happen again! And if none of you wanna go with me, then I'm going in alone because I refuse to give up until this thing is completely destroyed once and for all!"
