History[]
The abridged series of Digimon: Digital Monsters made by Sehanort. First planned to be a short parody series of the First Season of Digimon, it was later concluded that if Sehanort would ever attempt to make an abridged series of his own it would be Digimon and ONLY Digimon. Thanks to a youtube poop which had The trance mix of Kouji Wada's Butterfly, It reminded Sehanort of his first favorite anime that he watched, and the planning of an abridged series became possible. Some of the styles that Sehanort used in his other works such as a completely different storyline were used within this series while at the same time summarizing each episode to each important plot point.
Cast[]
The cast of the digidestined kids and their digimon are voiced by Sehanort. It was planned that some digimon would be voiced by different voice actors once they reach their Ultimate levels, and some of the other digimon are voiced by guest stars, but the vast of majority of characters are voiced by Sehanort. The voices that were given to the characters may be thought of to be offensive but in truth, Sehanort said "I simply gave them a voice."

Running Gags[]
- Each of the first 10 episodes adds a new rule to the "Digimon Campers Guide"
- "Hooomans"
- Most of the digidestineds' rookie digimon sound similar to the versions from the dub, except that Gabumon (and later Garurumon) are voiced like Disney's Goofy.
- digimon vs. digimon = good; kids vs. digimon = bad
- Mimi's voice alternates between highpitched "kawaii~desu" and a deep-voiced baritone
