- Aw yea, new opening with new footage of the Champion levels kicking major arse. 
- Yowch...an increased budget definitely means more possibilities to blow up the town. Kuwagamon is being decidedly scary.
- If there's one thing I don't like about the new art style it's that the faces aren't as expressive. It's certainly more realistic but it can come across as "dull surprise" sometimes, which isn't great.
- "Taichi, you've grown up!" "And you've shrunk." Okay, that was funny. And a little mean.
- ...
- That fight scene...that evolution sequence...revamped Brave Heart...it's frickin beautiful, guys...
- Men in black suits? A tad ominous; have we had some behind the scenes investigations going on?
- THE GANG'S BACK TOGETHER! Almost...
- :I Yeah, lose the fedora TK. Seriously.
- This fight is really quite tactical and a far cry from the one-hit kills of the original series (which were both understandable due to the budget and still awesome in their own way). It's also quite brutal, enhanced by the far more monstrous designs. Basically this is the battle we thought we were watching as kids, and now we've actually got it. It's glorious.
- Mimi's escort has the best reaction to being Mimi's escort. XD
- o_e I'm scared.
In all honesty, this whole reaction is just me gushing nostalgia and feels about THIS AWESOME THING but I don't care because they've really got the main thing right. Now the team's (nearly) back together and kicking more major arse than ever. But there's something very sinister lurking in the background and I can't wait to find out what it is.

Update: Hawk's on Hiatus
And so another year draws to a close. I last posted majorly with the Chasm finale, and I believe I outlined that I was working on Firestarters ready for 2023. Well, it's been a long old year. And I think it's time to be honest with myself and slow down. Here's the thing; I work full time, I have ongoing family commitments, and as I hinted during my last post I don't necessarily have the greatest mental health. For ten straight years I've been creating and posting Ascending and over those years my abilities have improved, but it also means that I've been pushing for more and more output. And with everything else going on as well, it's been very easy for me to use Ascending as a crutch to keep going even when I really need to slow down. I love this project, and am dedicated to seeing it through to the end. But I can't risk pushing it to the point where it no longer becomes enjoyable and instead becomes an obligation. During the worst parts of the past few years, that has happened, and
A Note from the Author
Ten years. God damn. On July 31st 2012, exactly ten years ago to the day, I posted the first chapter of Digimon Inferno to Fanfiction.net. It was my first attempt at writing something for the web, and my first time being actively involved in a fandom of any sort, small and niche as it may have been. I’d crafted plans for fake Digimon stories before, but for the first time I felt I could make this work; I finally had a plan for a full 50 episode epic much like the ones I’d grown up watching in the official series, and I was curious and hopeful to see how far I’d get. And well, here we are. Over 150 chapters, over 750 screenshots, over 1 million words. How. A lot can change in ten years. I started an engineering degree, and finished with a 2:1. I got the dream job I’d wanted since I was a child, and then moved on after a couple of years once I realised my dream job wasn’t what I thought it’d be. I since became a fully-fledged electrical engineer working in nuclear fusion. I
Error 404 Obligatory Sphiel
Well, well, well, here we are again. Over 9 months of writing and 6 months of release time, all culminating once again in tears and laughter and deus-ex-machina. How time flies.
Error 404 has been probably my biggest endeavour yet, probably even more so than Inferno, with the amount of new things I’ve tried, new drawings I’ve made, and of course many new characters which walked over all my plans and decided to do their own things yet again. And good for them. I’ve put them through hell. It’s been a long, rough road and I am on the verge of collapsing after all of it, so I will keep this short and as non-self-indulgent
Error 404 Progress and New Release Date
The first draft is complete! It will need going over but the bulk of the work for Error 404 is now done.
And good news; due to the fact that I have written far too much, I can actually split some chapters and pull the release date back. Error 404 will now come out on November 4th.
I now need to lie down and sleep for like...three weeks. Hope y'all have a great rest of summer, and see you in November.

Okay; yet to see it but want to. Also: still torn on using this in the Digimon Adventure verse I'm using in my mega crossover but maybe once Tri is over, I'll have a better idea. Still gonna use it in a TON of other fanfics though.
