most badass rookies

[Guilmon and a shotgun]

Dude. How is Renamon a badass compared to Lucemon. Lucemon can take down megas with his grand cross and made the Royal Knights his own bitches.

Because she, unlike your toga wearing friend, actually works for her kills. She is badass because she needs to protect the person she loves, not because she's an attentionwhore. She is badass because you can see her suffer whilst she's attacking, but she doesn't give up. The purpose to protect gives her passion, and with passion comes strength and with strength, just like with John Mc'lane in Die Hard.

Lucemon on the other hand comes off as a whiny little git who's biggot attitude to the digital world and its inhabitants makes him look rediculous rather then fearful. Sorry to burst your bubble, but it takes more then a killer attack to be badass.
