Muteki Anime Central's Digimon Dictionary
Ever get the feeling you have no idea what's going on in the show? Or are you new and don't
understand the terms being used? Well, that's what our Digital Dictionary is for! Here's a place to check out the termonology
and compare the Dub terms to the Japanese ones. (In this section it's going to be the Dub terms you're looking for, and the
Japanese terms in parenthesis.) Also, just as a little sidenote, I worked very hard on this, so please don't just copy and paste from this page. Thanks. ^^
