The first season of Digimon and the original OG that started it all. Digimon Adventure started off as your usual run of the mill adventure story of a group of kids being transplanted to a foreign and alien world and must find ways to defeat the main bad guy and go back to their world. Simple and cliche stuff that you will see in quite of number of kids shows of a similar genre. However shit really starts flying after the Etemon arc when Myotismon makes his appearance, continuing with the Four Dark Masters arc. Here the whimsical and exploratory themes and attitude of the show start to become darker, more adult and serious for a kids show. 

How adult are we talking about? Well we are talking about multiple depictions of [[Grimdark|public executions, attempted child murder, on-screen deaths of supporting characters, psychological trauma, physical and mental abuse, grief-induced despair, domestic terrorism on public property, actual swearing of "Bitch" and "Damn" and infanticide of Digimon children....Yikes....]]Ironically, despite these implications that such dark showings of a kids anime may lose public appeal, it actually did the opposite and Digimon soon became a contender and rival to Pokemon. So many Digimon fans owe immense debt and gratitude for the first season's contribution in popularizing Digimon to outside markets.

The first season also had the most iconic characters and Digimons. Taichi, Yamato, Sora, Mimi, Joe, Izzy, TK and Kari are still remembered fondly by the fandom as well as their respective Digimons. So if you talked to a Digimon fan on who is their favorite character is, chances are that at least several of them are going to name some from the first season.  And yes, it also started the trend of Digimon waifus with Lilimon, Angewomon and LadyDevimon (the latter even getting into a catfight with Angewomon in her first appearance).  Also (in)famous for the Digimon Rap song which will never, ever leave your heads once you hear it. However the Japanese songs are pretty kick ass and has a surprising selection of good rock songs for a kids show. The German renditions of the songs deserve a special mention as well. They were so unbelievably popular and catchy that you were hard pressed to find a school choir that did not include the masterpiece that is "Leb deinen Traum" in their repertoire in the early 2000s. To this day it is remembered very fondly and still played in bars when there is a 90s party going on.
