To be fair, this was also what made the show work so well. You were always eager to know what the next level would look like and it was always so much crazier than you expected.

I did find it quite weird that the most powerful stage for Digimon was often just a man. Always felt like the, uh, cartoonist(?) had a bit of a superiority complex. Like, what's more powerful than an iron t-rex? An iron man, of course.

Although, thinking now, there was something about them merging with their humans. Was that just what that last stage is? Then I guess, I would allow it as some dramatic thingamabob.

I always viewed it more as the artists trying to depict each of the digimon as if they were angels in their final forms, as in being in a celestial or god-like state.

You think I want a seal who's name is still literally seel evolve into a dugong that's also just named dewgong? or do I want to see sealmon become omniwar metal sealteam6mon?

Also sometimes Digimon split evolution into undead skeletons.
