#Someone slap me when I become emotionally invested in this cursed reboot again

Not giving us Metalgarurumon in this week's episode was quite possibly the biggest slap in the face the reboot could've given me. Like this was A PERFECT CHANCE for this. Just like the episode with Koushiro. Otherwise, what was all that character progress for lol? I mean, this show does not really value character development for the sake of character development, so I'm very much baffled at them pulling this. What happened to your 2020 shonen rule of making developments only when a power up is needed? Huh, reboot? Also, does Taichi have to witness every single evolution the others make (in a particularly hierarchical order already established), when Agumon himself got his mega and only Sora was there to see it from afar?
All I'm saying is that Yamato, Koushiro, and even Mimi were robbed of their megas while Taichi got a slide form of his own mega. Last three episodes were an absolute wasted potential in terms of that. But hey, at least they got character development for the sake of character development, i.e. fleshing out their characters, so idk they actually win here as far as I'm concerned. Casual character development is basically a complete stranger to the reboot so I'm happy to see some of that.
