Plot Summary
editDragon Warrior
editIn the dinosaur age, a meteorite collided with the earth, causing a huge explosion. This explosion formed a rift in space, which created the dragon world. The dragon world was guarded by the four dragon gods, but evil forces appeared. The Dark Death Dragon (黑亡龙) was born, bringing war and destruction to the dragon world. In order to seal the Dark Death Dragon, the four dragon gods used their own power to create four sacred weapons and successfully sealed the Black Dragon. However, where there is light, there is always darkness. The power of the Dark Death Dragon is still expanding, affecting the entire dragon world. As time goes by, the Dark Death Dragon is close to being resurrected and spreading the darkness to earth. A virtual game released all over the world, and one hundred thousand children and teenagers all over the world suddenly disappeared. The only common feature was that they all liked this game. Six dragon eggs came to the earth and met six children, 3 of who are 天乐, 安小达, and 汪美含. In order to save the dragon world, the dragon warriors must join the battle to eliminate the forces of darkness.[2]

Season 1 Production Issue
editThe story of season 1 and 2 does not connect. The writer, Honghong Wang, had written Dragon Warrior as 2 parts, with part one becoming the first season of Dragon Warrior. So there was many unfinished plot points in season 1 that were suppose to be answered in part 2. However, the investors of the company were worried that Dragon Warrior, being the company's first IP, would not turn a profit. So the writers worked on a separate IP while finishing production for Dragon Warrior and abandoned the story for part 2. As the first few episodes of Dragon Warrior aired, the series gained popularity and looked like it was going to turn a profit. So the company wanted to make a sequel for the series. However the writer had already written more than 50 episodes and had already started animation production for the new series. So the writer added elements of Dragon Warrior into the new story. This became the plot of Dragon Warrior season 2.[4]
Digimon Plagiarism Allegation
editDragon Warrior was accused of plagiarizing famous Japanese Media Franchise, Digimon. Digimon Adventure (1999 TV series) was widely popular in mainland China during the time Dragon Warrior aired. Many points of Dragon Warrior are allegedly copied from Digimon.
Plot
editSimilar premises of children being transported to a digital world. The children have creatures of the world as their partners, and can evolve into more powerful forms.
Digivices
editA main point is the similarities between Digimon's Digivices and Dragon Warrior's 斗龙机. They have similar appearances, both looking like watches. They also serve similar functions, used to evolve the Digimon and dragons of their respective series.
Design
editThe designs of the digital monsters of Digimon and dragons in Dragon warrior have similarities. Notably Agumon from Digimon and 达力古 from Dragon Warrior. Both are based on the T. Rex and have fire attacks. The transformation sequences are also visually similar.
Music
editSome music used in Dragon Warrior are original tracks made for the Digimon franchise.
With the Will[5] - used in transformation scenes in Digimon Frontier, and character introduction scenes in Dragon Warrior.
拡がる不安[6] - used as background music in various scenes in Digimon Adventures and Dragon Warrior
