When you put it that way, Verge is probably not the worst out there.
Also, I don't think that Verge's goal is to make Agnimon live again and let him achieve his goal of being a hero. Verge is already doing the latter for him, and the former has a lot of stuff that could complicate it.
I think, from what I glean from the discussion and the text itself, that Verge simply wants excise Agnimon's data from Repulsa's, freeing it from her clutch. I think that in some amount, Verge simply wants Agnimon to be able to experience the next life. He doesn't seem to want Agnimon back for his sake or to be a hero.
He just wants too free his friends reincarnation, and train him enough that he never suffers a fate like that again.
And regarding the whole 'too traumatized' thing, he's still both a generally good teacher and father by digimon standards. And if Agnimon remembers anything from his past life, he will probably just regard Verge as a sensei in that area.
And yes, while Sparks won't be happy about Agnimon, he's not going to bully a kid just too feel better about it.

Case in point. Xia. While yes, Verge didn't handle the spider-lings as well as he could have, he's aware of that fact and acknowledges it. But he's in a much better state of mind now, and he's not going to make the same mistakes again.

Given the narrative magnitude of this vote. I'll be leaving it open until tomorrow, even though it's pretty one sided so far. I hope that fight was cathartic for everyone! After realizing her evolution didn't make her invincible, she could of fell apart.
His *wounds* have become less stinging with time. Thanks to Verge Sparks has gotten back to heroism, albeit, more of a guile, practical version rather than Agnimon's stricter and naive code.
Letting 2 wind spirits go off in the hand of a truly godawful person just because Hollywood normalized the bullshit of "spare the bad guy" is stupid in the extreme
There's nothing to worry about there, Sparks isn't going to make any attempt to be merciful. The extraction is literally as simple as deleting her inside his Book's pocket dimension so Agnimon's digicore can reform on the tree there.
She could've put up a much better fight, but Verge managed to break her spirit. And after she got scared enough… well her ability to fight properly tanked due to terror.
So, is Not!Lucemon currently laughing his ass off? I mean, he just watched one of the mon who ganged up on him in his last life get punked on by an Ultimate.
So what's Verg 's reputation look like after this? Causes thats two mega level enemies he's smacked down in a tournament that is supposed to be for ultimate.
Is Verg going to go hunt Saberloemon now he doesn't have to fight for a few days?
Also is there any negative repercussion for a demon lord empowering other mon? Causes that two mon Astamon has given his power to.
Reputation as the Brutal Brawler has been further solidified. And his odds of winning the tourney have officially shot up to 1st place. Previously he was closely behind Vajramon (ironic considering their spars) Thresh, then Angemon at 1st.
Hunt is planned after the Thresh fight.
Yes, empowering mon to the scale of Gogmamon comes with a personal cost. Repulsa to a far lesser degree, since it was just helping her empower a techique.

Revealing a mode change that let him fight an actual Mega had something to do with it I immagine.... I suspect that it was already apparent to most that he'd win vs Repulsa.

Sparks is planning to do something with them. Hasn't told Verge yet tho. But knowing him…

… that may have inspired things a bit.
Pretty much yeah. He's also a bit annoyed tho, since DeathMeramon won't stop cheering.

Gambling odds tend to scale based on who the most people are betting in favor of.
Most of the mon betting are likely at the point of "both Verge and Morningstar are too strong for me to sense", and Verge's feat of "curbstomp a mega" is more impressive to them than Angemon's feat of "curbstomp an old deva".
Generally only stronger Ults (and above) or energy specialists like Karatenmon have it unlocked. Though there are special cases, like Holy and Demonic digimon tending to be able to vaguely sense each othe's power.
That said, no one sensed Verge or Repulsa's power because of the pocket dimension thing. Just saw that she became one of the Ten's gods, and Verge wrecked her anyways.

Yep. Reserved generally for elite forces and specialists. Most High Programmers even stronger ones don't have it either. See Sparks needing to learn it this arc.
I wonder if this fight will also get some interludes of other characters watching it.
Personally curious how Ophanimon is reacting. She'd certainly get some dark satisfaction from seeing a 'pagan goddess' get her ass kicked, but the rest of the context would probably leave her pretty conflicted all things considered.
There's an Ultimate who left her faction in favor of Leopardmon's, who is both capable of defeating a Mega in combat and jogressing with "Seraphimon's reincarnation", but its a horrific abomination whose body shouldn't even be able to stay alive and used an attack that gave off divine energy (the modified Highland Fang).
Speaking of, I'm glad to see one of my Omakes have such a tangible effect in a climactic moment! It was really cool to see and I'm glad Drex allowed it to be used that way!
