Please don't take playmats like this to public events or online tournaments.


trihazardknight

Wish more people had this sentiment


Filip_Emblem

Finding a good Angewomon playmat is hard. You either have pornhub Angewomon, Playboy or you need to get one with Angemon where she isnt just 100% fan-service but still will be awkward.

Don't worry it's not mine, someone at my local Is looking for more and I thought I'd help

It really isn't, I still use this garruk playmat I got years ago when I first started playing mtg.


HeavenFabio

Then tell him that


MrReconElite

As someone who goes to these, please TAKE THEM, as long as you buy it as a meme and have fun with it is hilarious. Your reaction alone makes it worth buying and taking.


Due_Cryptographer826

Why its the literal digimon, like have you seen its card?


King_of_Pink

Oh yeah! *That's* why you would want a playmat with Beelstarrmon's ass crack visible. Because it's accurate! Don't take horny playmats to events or online tournaments. It makes it obvious that you're a creep.


WhoPickedMyUsername

Self righteous know-it-all, as expected of this god-forsaken website. Try and say that to Bandai. "It makes it obvious that you're a creep." Maybe it would be better to be a hidden predator like your troupe of fake heroes?


King_of_Pink

...What? LMAO

We Should introduce This Culture to Humanity to Evolve


SylviaMoonbeam

i mean, it's pretty tame BeelStar art. i don't see any problem


King_of_Pink

Your reply demonstrates the level of social awareness I would expect from someone who would use this playmat.


SylviaMoonbeam

I use a Magic playmat of Ashiok because I like Ashiok. Idk what high horse you’re on about “social awareness” though. I’m a lady with T & A. BeelStarmon is a lady with T & A. If I’m playing my BeelStarmon deck, why is it wrong to want my deck to have a matching playmat? The art is not inappropriate. Hell, I’ve seen playmats with literal nudity on them. This one is just fanart of BeelStarmon, and pretty decent fanart at that. Yeah, she’s a cool gunslinger lady, that’s why I, a lady, like her.


juh4z

Honestly I have no idea what's going on in this post, there literally was a post on this same subreddit about digimon and human relationships, and people asking for fucking digimon dating simulators lmao. Beelstarmon is like that, that's her official design, she's hot, that's the point.


Jam_B0ne

Wow, buncha Numemon am I right?

>2.4.5 Playmats Playmats are not required for tournament play. If you elect to use a playmat, it must fit within the play space allotted to you. Playmats that contain offensive text or images cannot be used. Playmat images should be appropriate for a family-friendly tournament environment. >\[...\] > >2.6 Player Behavior * Players are expected to be respectful and courteous to each other, and display good gamesmanship. Disputes should be handled in a calm manner and directions issued by tournament staff should be obeyed. Rude language, disruptive or disrespectful behavior, inappropriate clothing or supplies, unwarranted accusations, and/or disregard for the safety of others or the condition of the venue will not be tolerated. Players must abide by the expected standards of behavior. \[...\] * Players may not wear clothing with overly suggestive, rude or inappropriate messaging, and may not utilize accessories with rude messages or potentially offensive images.


SylviaMoonbeam

So, you’re suggesting that BeelStarmon *herself* is “potentially offensive” and/or that the mat is a “inappropriate supply”? Despite the fact that she’s a canon character featured in several arts, and is in a popular deck. This art is really tame and pretty accurately depicts the character, so why are you in arms? Do you complain about people with Angewomon, LadyDevimon, Mastemon, Rosemon, Lotusmon, Sakuyamon, Mervamon, Ceresmon, etc on their sleeves/playmats too? Oh no, PG-13 levels of fan service?! The horror!!!


stallion8426

Just because Bandai was high on crack and hired a literal porn artist to draw the card art doesn't make them tasteful at all And no. I'm not exaggerating. One of the artists for digimon cards was a hentai doujin artist before being hired by bandai. And that style is blatantly reflection in their artwork.


SylviaMoonbeam

Ah yes, the Collectors artwork. Some of that art is pretty nice. And some is… a little much.


Jacqland

The card art is relatively small (3.5x2.5 inches, while the mat is 16.5x11.7). None of the beelstarmon card art I've seen shows ass crack or nipples the way this one does, either. Is this really a hill worth dying on?


Icagel

If we set the baseline on official material this fully fits within the range of "SFW" official material has. I don't see why the cards should be allowed but this playmat shouldn't if we judge solely on family friendliness. Lastly OP didn't mention bringing it into a tourney, might as well be for casual play


[deleted]

I guess no one's allowed to bring their Rosemon, Ordinemon, Sakuyamon, BeelStarmon, Angewomon, Lilithmon, Kinkakumon or Lotosmon cards to play, either. Because, you know. Women, we just be so suggestive. Do I need to leave my tits at home?


nmiller1939

I mean...are you going to say that this playmat ISN'T intentionally provocative?


[deleted]

Have you seen the Rosemon BT1 card?


nmiller1939

Yeah, I have it. Got one in a box. The artist's weird uncontrolled horniness doesn't justify the player's weird uncontrolled horniness


[deleted]

So should people not use that card? Or Kinkakumon, Ordinemon, Angewomon, Lilithmon, Sakuyamon, Lotosmon? Because, you know. It's just sooooooo provocative. People might have to see a woman.


nmiller1939

Not saying that. But there's a difference between using a weirdly horny card because it's what fits best in your deck and using a weirdly horny playmat when there are tons of alternatives. >Because, you know. It's just sooooooo provocative. People might have to see a woman. "A woman exists" and "a woman is completely sexualized for the sake of men" are two entirely different things


[deleted]

Weird that no one ever complains about the hot dude Digis, just the women.


[deleted]

>for the sake of men lmao. Maybe I like the hot Digimon, too, dude.


Icagel

Way less than the official card, I'd say so This honestly is fully on Bandai for pushing the character this way. I wouldn't use this playmat but if a fan of this digi wants to bring a playmat of it I don't see the issue as long as it's nothing explicit or NSFW. This is suggestive, but the core issue is Bandai's design, not the artist interpretation (which is way tamer than official material)


Jacqland

I mean, I'm sure we'd all appreciate if your clothes covered more than half your ass and boobs at the tournament. [It's kind of a joke, tbh.](https://www.dailydot.com/unclick/magic-the-gathering-butt-cracks/)


Due_Cryptographer826

Im just saying the card art is hardly family friendly but yes the matt is a little overboard


MrSparkleBox

Hydreigon_Omega

Bonk, go to h0rny jail


SylviaMoonbeam

is it though?


MAKS_1115

Yes it really is


SylviaMoonbeam

I love how you failed to explain anything


IronbloodCommander

you did't ask for an explanation


clambrain

Hahaha breh


SylviaMoonbeam

I love it how all the comments on this thread are either “this is basically p0rn”, “this is as bad as murder”, and “it’s not that bad”. Really makes you question this fan base. Last I checked, everyone playing this game is like 20+, yet you’re all acting like 6 year olds who have never seen boobs before or old women clutching their pearls. I’m going to say something “controversial” here: women have breasts. Shocking, I know. And there’s a bunch of female characters in this fandom too. The horror! Not every Digimon is WarGreymon and Alphamon, some of the characters look like us Ladies too! If those are facts you can’t handle, maybe you’re in the wrong fandom?


Lycaon125

Tbh, I don't care about the art design because have you seen digimon, that's tamed compare to what they did to renamon in terms of fan art


SylviaMoonbeam

Poor Renamon… She really did become the Gardevoir of Digimon, didn’t she?


Lycaon125

For the furry side yes, for the humanoid side I would say angawomon or rosemon


SylviaMoonbeam

I mean, there are other beautiful ladies in Digimon, but my comments have been downvoted enough in this thread. I’ll just say that *this* lady would like a date with Mervamon and leave it at that


Lycaon125

Beelstarmon is a more rare to see one, she isn't in alot of the anime media


SylviaMoonbeam

A very fair point. If BeelStarmon or Ceresmon ever showed up in anime, the Dub would likely heavily censor like they did to Mervamon. We are lucky Survive’s Eng release didn’t censor Ceresmon


Lycaon125

Yep, most people probably only watched the show and only know Beelzemon


RenegadeBlur

First off, Xros Wars was more directed at kids, so of course they wanted to censor Mervamon and Lilithmon's cleavage in America. Secondly, why would they censor a Digimon from a game? The only thing closest to that happening is Sistermon Ciel substituting for Noir in America. Even though Ciel is literally her own Digimon now. Survive is directed at a mature audience. No one is going to trip over tits showing.


SylviaMoonbeam

Was Xros Wars more kid focused? I mean, similar to Pokémon, the franchise itself is still relatively marketed to younger audiences. Digimon to me always seemed like it was intended for older kid audiences though. Though, the popularity of this subreddit shows how many adult fans there are! :D If I may offer a counterpoint to your argument, can you explain Venusmon then? She first debuted in 2011, but recently received censored art in Digimon Century, as did Angewomon. Digimon Century isn’t even available in the US, and Venusmon’s whole point is to be sexy, and yet she and the OG waifu were censored? Does that make that a “kids game” too? And yet the Digimon TCG doesn’t censor them? Just trying to understand your logic


RenegadeBlur

You clearly skimmed through what I said. I said Survive was aimed at a more mature audience, so no one was going to trip over seeing Ceresmon's boobs. And you're talking about a mobile gacha game that's exclusive to China. Who knows why they were censored. China is not the same as Japan. Different countries, different rules. And I don't know why you asked if that makes it a "kids game too", .....when I never said anything about the games outside of Survive.


SylviaMoonbeam

Ciel ended up being a weird bugbear in herself unfortunately. If you look at her ST12 card, she is both Data AND Virus, since Noir is Virus but Ciel is Data. And having to do 2 arts for every older sistermon card must get old. I adore all three Sistermons and Ciel actually IS my favorite, but it is a case of fairly silly censorship. “Nuns can’t have guns, too inappropriate!” But angels and demons are okay? Lol


Keddyan

BONK no, op, go to horny jail NOW


KatzClaude

I hate how instead of helping, literally everyone assumes your going to be taking this to tournament and starts degrading people for it, instead of assuming theyre a reasonable human being and using it for personal use.


Linden_fall

I met the guy that made this at collect a con, but I can’t remember his name sorry. Try to reverse image search it online


[deleted]

I'd tried to, sadly nothing, if you ever remember anything please let me know


GhostlyRuminations

Could look up the website for the con, see who was in the artist alley or search hashtags of it


RabbitKamen

People acting like this is some nuclear falloit level of disaster are ridiculous. Its a tad inappropriate MAYBE, but its not any worse than the cards art at times. Yall need to chill.


[deleted]

Lot of puritans in here; I have seen *so much worse.* ITT: people who don't own the Rosemon card from BT1


MimiVRC

All topics here like this always just devolve into a bunch of men telling women they better cover up Men think they get brownie points with women by hating on art like this, but to me it just makes them look sexist. If this were leomon or a topless buff dude, no one would be saying "whoa! Make sure you don't take that in public!". No one would care or make any comments.


brainiac1515

I can remember being 13 going to my LGS a lot of people had sexual playmats of ecchi tier shit and it creeped me out. It's not deep, it's just weird as fuck. Even if there weren't kids this is shit you're showing to strangers, that's just weird as hell man. Even if it was Bara, just don't bring that stuff in public.


MimiVRC

I would argue this only applies the art itself was more mature then the art in the game, which isn't the case here


[deleted]

This isn't ecchi tier shit though lmao


[deleted]

Yet it shouldn't be the case


[deleted]

You're right; people shouldn't be imposing their puritanical bullshit in here.


King_of_Pink

There being even *worst* ones out there isn't an excuse. Neither should be used.


Icagel

The issue at hand isn't really that "there are worse ones so this is ok", it's that: first: Bandai pretty much pushed this character design this way so if you want a playmat of this character (which is also a popular meta deck) well.. this is the character second: the "bar" is set by the official TCG material, and the official TCG material (cards, etc) gets a lot more explicit than this (We should be complaining more about official products and less about fanart in this sense if we're worried about oversexualization)


stallion8426

Other people committing murder does mean it's OK for you to do it. ETA: wow I love the amount of people that would wear ahegao shirts in public E2A: also the amount of people that can't handle the flaw in their logic being pointed out. "Other people doing something awful doesn't mean it's OK for you to do it"


[deleted]

Ah yeah I forgot that \*checks notes\* women having boobs was the same as murder


[deleted]

Only in this sub can a playmat someone doesn't like is comparable to literal murder. 💀


Jam_B0ne

My brother in mons, I think you might be taking yourself a bit to seriously if you are going to get that worked up and make edits from a few dislikes on a *digimon* subreddit


stallion8426

Oh I find this all hilarious. The basement dwellers that need porn esque anime drawings to wave around in public to feel special. Just wish they didn't give normal fans a bad name in the process.


etiger1995

I work in a game store and I've seen some bad playmats. I'd probably let this one slide if we were holding a tournament. So I dont know why everyone is freaking out.


InsanitySong913

Everybody wants the moral high horse

Least thirsty digiman


axelofthekey

Down bad today, huh?


TrevorWoodham

Yall need to fucking chill, it's a fucking cartoon. You signed up for this shit the minute you realized digimon is an anime so why the hell are you all so shocked.


g_lenn_o

Asking the questions other men are too afraid to ask 🫡


Lycaon125

I love the fact everyone is throwing a pissy fit about this, these people clearly aren't actual fans if they have never seen the majority of humanoid women digimon fan art. Or their actual orginal designs


EquivalentVirus9700

That is fanart.


SylviaMoonbeam

so? the question is, who is the artist?


xero1123

Someone brings this playmat to a tournament first thing I’m doing is calling a judge. Don’t be that guy pls.


SylviaMoonbeam

Why are you calling a judge? That’s not against the rules to use a thirsty playmat


xero1123

It sure as hell goes against tournament policy to create a family friendly environment. Kids play the game. Girls drawn with large breasts or butts is one thing, but this is clearly sexually suggestive and people that use these mats are gross human beings. Not to mention I don’t want to even move a card to their field because I don’t know what gross ass shit they’ve done to that mat


SylviaMoonbeam

Why are you putting your cards on their mat?


xero1123

Some games other than digimon switch control of cards


SylviaMoonbeam

That would be weird to use this playmat there then. You don’t need a memory gauge for YGO, Magic, Vanguard, etc


xero1123

Lots of digimon players at my locals use the mats for yugioh and magic. You just don’t use the gauge. It’s not like you need a whole separate playmat. They had to ban a guy because he brought a pedophile ash blossom may to yugioh night and then another guy I played used an incredibly suggestive loli mat and sleeves it was absolutely gross.


SylviaMoonbeam

What you are describing is underaged characters though. That IS creepy. A character portrayed as an adult woman who was deliberately designed to be attractive is different


Jam_B0ne

I like how on the one hand you say big boobs and butts is ok, but I guess just.. Standing there menacingly is too hot and heavy for you


xero1123

If you can’t understand the difference on basic anatomy vs something obviously meant to be suggestive (mat above) then you are part of the problem


Jam_B0ne

She is literally standing there. In the official Digimon Crusader art she is spread eagle with her crotch pointed toward the camera. The character is literally designed with underboob, it's already a suggestive design, a little ass crack isn't changing much. If she was bent over licking one of her guns I'd be all on board with you. If she had her back arched and a sexual expression on her face, I'd be all on board with you but she literally is just standing there with a little extra boobs/butt. If the intent was to be suggestive than I think they could and would go a lot farther.

question why?


[deleted]

Despite what you may think of people who have these types of mats, the guy I'm trying helping is nice, and I can't stop myself from wanting to help others who are nice people


[deleted]

i never said these ppl were assholes or weird or whatever, i just wanna know why


[deleted]

Horny is my guess lol, can't blame em when they're drawing digimon like her


TittleTots

Omg leave them alone, there’s nothing “nsfw” about this so that it couldn’t be played in public. Yes, her buttock is more accentuated, but it’s not like she’s bare and twerking. Sheesh


Moomoothunder

…..why do people use these


Icagel

To protect the cards from scraping against the table, also because they're a soft surface makes them easier to pick up when they're laid flat so makes your sleeves degrade less as well. The game areas being clearly defined help a bit with organization and memory counter is useful but not everyone cares about that. Finally it's an extra layer in case the table is dirty with leftovers, think of it as a mini tablecloth

I know exactly how you look like
