YMMV / Digimon Next

• Complete Monster: Barbamon is a Demon Lord who convinced Yggdrasill, central computer of the Digital World, that humanity's abuse of Digimon meant that the links between the worlds should be cut. Becoming a self-aware avatar of Yggdrasill, Barbamon started a tyrannical regime to purge Digimon deemed "illegal" and gather the Eight Digi-Memories to create NEO, a godlike digital to surpass Ygdrassil and recreate the Digital World. Gathering powerful warriors to lead The Commandments, Barbamon would manipulate both Shou and Holy Angemon, corrupting them into Knight and Murmukusmon. Then, the Commandments would carry a murderous crusade across the digital world while Barbamon warps the reincarnation cycle of the Digimon. When the resistance against his rule concentrates in Light City, Barbamon orders the destruction of the city before sending the sadistic Chaosdramon—whom Barbamon created using data of the Dark Area—to kill Andromon and the remaining survivors before mocking Norn, the compassionate human avatar of Yggdrasill, when she is horrified by the brutality. When Barbamon is lethally injured by Victory Greymon, he sacrifices himself to complete the creation of NEO, who would erase both the Digital and Human Worlds following the last desire of his creator.
• Unintentionally Sympathetic: The entire main conflict of the story was sparked by human children resetting and otherwise mistreating their virtual pets. Kids who do this intentionally are made to come off as jerkasses, even though there's literally no way for them to know their toys aren't just, well, toys.
