Some of the Digimon videogames protagonist from 2015 to 2022 in the style of Digimon Story DS. Including the Appmon ones because they counts too. This is based on the original game sprites. Take this as some sort of mockup..

Sistermon Noir debuted along with her younger sister Sistermon Blanc in Digimon Collectors back in 2012. They later appeared in 2017 in Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth Hacker's Memory's Chapter 7, as well as being obtainable as partner Digimon.

When the game was localized, Sistermon Noir was changed to Sistermon Ciel, due to her invoking religious imagery being considered a no good for North America.

The European version did not get censored though. Some screenshots for comparison:

[Japanese version | European version (German) | North American version]

In 2018, a year after the North American release of Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth: Hacker's Memory, Sistermon Ciel got officially added to the Digimon Reference Book. It was also obtainable through a download code in the Digimon Pendulum Ver. 20th.

While her model in Hacker's Memory was only a recolor with a few very simple model changes, in both her normal and awakened form, she received a redesign with her introduction to the Reference Book. This also changed her weapon of choice from Sistermon Noir's guns to a katana. The Book states that she is the elder twin sister of Sistermon Noir and an assassin at night.

Now, I think there is a conversation to be had about Sistermon Noir's cencorship. Where is the line? Why is Sistermon Noir not okay, but Sistermon Blanc and Sistermon Ciel are alright? Is it just because of the black nun outfit? Isn't the name "Sistermon" and a white nun outfit also invoking relgious imagery?

Also why is this not acceptable for christian imagery, but the monk imagery of Sanzomon is no problem?

Now I am not saying there should be more cencorship. I just think it's somewhat hypocritical. Having grown up in Germany, where this kind of cencorship is not present, and with words like "hell" ("Hölle") or "damn" ("verdammt") being very much present in children's television, seeing Sistermon Noir getting completely wiped from the Western version of the Digimon Card Game is just ridiculous to me. But that is my personal opinion of course.

Now, to the cards. All cards of Sistermon Noir got replaced with Sistermon Ciel in the English release. Name and Type were all changed accordingly, however recent Errata added that each Sistermon Noir is supposed to also be coinsidered as being named Sistermon Ciel and having the type Data, as well as all Sistermon Ciel to also be considered as being named Sistermon Noir and having the type Virus. In BT10 Sistermon Ciel got her first card in the Japanese release, which of course then was kept as is in the English release.

Furthermore, cards that featured Sistermon Noir had her erased.

They did however, miss her in the background of this card:

for all you digimon cyber sleuthers, can I raise to you transmasc arata sanada???? no????

like idk why it works so well in my head it JUST DOES!!! and especially through the lens of hacker's memory where ryuji talks to him a lot about Jude being the one place they all belonged and UGHHSKFJHK Arata wanting the one place he felt comfortable back :(( he just wants to belong, and hackers being outcasts and constantly blamed/made out to be the villains can be seen as a good metaphor for... *gestures vaguely at the state of the world* ...a lot of things.

and don't get me started on him and yuugo that's a whole other kettle of fish or however the saying goes

(tis very late and i'm tired i hope this makes a semblance of sense)

Godsdamn if Under Kowloon isn’t one of the funkiest, grooviest tunes I’ve heard in a video game!

SUCH a step up from the same old Kowloon theme.

On the rare occasion that someone asks me things related to digimon, all I can think is "oh you poor sweet innocent soul you don't know the can of worms you've just unleashed upon yourself I've been hyperfixated on this for about ten years, *if I can't escape my hyperfixation, you can't escape my rambles*

[metalempire]

fun fact: in digimon story cyber sleuth: hacker's memory, the BBS you use to accept cases has a url shown in game, punching it in actually takes you to a real website that features info all about the cyber sleuth games that was used both pre-release and during the release of the games. nice detail.

Yuuko's beeg getback

Rie stands tall, laughing at the upcoming defeat of Ami's team, unknowing of a hiding trump card she had set up just for her. That being a much larger Yuuko who was more than willing to join in for personal reason.

Pic idea by a friend on DA and Discord.
