[edit] Description

Human Spirit of Water

Ranamon is the Legendary Human Warrior of Water, using the power of AncientMermaimon.

Her mood changes violently, especially in her Calmaramon form, when it comes to her "beauty" being insulted. Her human spirit form has a huge fanclub and Digimon in general are struck by her beauty, but her beast form makes them balk. The known members of the Ranamon fanclub consists of four Toucanmon, two Floramon, three Vegiemon, two Numemon, two Deramon and three Honeybeemon. She used to have a fan club with four Toucanmon, however after seeing her slide evolve to Calmaramon, the four Toucanmon quit and later joined the Zoe fan club. The same goes for the Honeybeemon who also joined Zoe's fan club.

Ironically the only digimon she seems to like is the only one who never notices her, Mercurymon. She has a personal dislike towards Zoe Orimoto because her Beast Spirit form is more beautiful than hers. In their first few confrontations, it always ended in a draw because Calmaramon could not control her Titanic Tempest attack. In their final battle, the two fought in Sakkakumon's Sphere of Water, where this time Ranamon was defeated and Zoe scanned both of her spirits. Ranamon's spirits were later transferred into Koji Minamoto's D-Tector so he could Unifed Spirit Evolve to MagnaGarurumon.

A purified Ranamon later appeared at the Village of Beginnings, to help the other legendary warriors fight Crusadermon and Dynasmon. She also appeared when Susanoomon split into the ten Human Hybrids to slice through Lucemon Larva's body.

Attacks

  • Drainin’ Rain (Rain Stream) : Sends a rain cloud and bombards her opponent with massive rain, which by appearance makes her opponents lose their strength.
  • Dark Vapor (Jealousy Rain) : She creates an acidic cloud.
  • Whippin’ Waves: Creates a whirlpool. Can be manipulated into a drill of water or a column of swirling water.


[edit] Other forms

The name "Ranamon" only refers to the Human-Hybrid form of this character. In the series, she gains access to other forms, each with a different name and special attack. However, this form is the one she spends most of her time in.

[edit] Calmaramon

Calmaramon (カルマーラモン)
Beast Spirit of Water

Calmaramon is the Legendary Beast Warrior of Water. Her name comes from "calmar", the French word for squid, which she resembles.

Though she initially did not have her Beast Spirit, Ranamon peformed a wide search and managed to find it. To her dismay, however, she both lost her fanclub to Calmaramon's horrid appearance as was unable to control its power. Her Titanic Charge attack often sends her spiraling off into the distance.

Calmaramon fights Zoe Orimoto and her Digimon forms one last time in Sakkakumon's Sphere of Water, where she is eventually defeated and scanned.

Attacks

  • Titanic Tempest (Titanic Charge): Withdrawing into her body, she rotates like a drill and strikes her enemy. And Calmaramon seems to have a few troubles with this attack the first few times she tried it. She succeeded using this attack only once.
  • Acid Ink (Nero Corso, lit. "Black Course"): Sprays out black acid from her mouth.
