{D I G I M O N} Adventure ~ Ep. 24 {Original J.P.N Version} + KOUSHIRO & MOTIMON x 0801 COUNT-DOWN

"You look like a {small} {B A B Y} 'Mon {that you Are} when you're held like that {by Koushiro}!" - Tsunomon

Digimon Partners Official Twitter, (dm_partners on Twitter) is beginning a countdown for 0801’s Adventure PV 2k24!

Today, Koushiro and "Motimon" {Mochimon} are previewed! {This art originally revealed/shown Jul. 26th, 2k24 for 080124} What is interesting about this one is the art is clearly referenced from Adventure #24, but the scene is supposed to be showing the mains meeting their partners during the events of Ep. 01.

In my personal view, this is Fitting for Koushiro regardless. Before people claim this makes Koushiro "out of character", I'd like to point out Koushiro's genuine care and concern towards Mochimon above, even when Koushiro was very likely achy and waking up from passed-out condition in Adv 24.

Koushiro is showing compassion towards Mochimon in this "new"-old scene because Koushiro is and always was caring and compassionate, even if Koushiro doesn't always show it well at first. (+This is 5 whole episodes before we even learn Koushiro's backstory about Koushiro being CANON A D O P T E D.)

Personally, my favorite interactions between them was actually also from the (if condensed) official Novel version, (also written by Hiroyuki Kakudou and Koushiro's main script-writer, Hiro Masaki, who also contributed at least 1/3rd of the amount) and even there, by the time they began walking, Koushiro was actively asking Mochimon "all sorts" of "{Q U E S T I O N S}" about the Digital World and the true nature of those living there.

LYRICS / TRANSLATION + FURTHER Taishiro Ficverse-spoilery notes under the “read more” !

* This original song DOES NOT have an originating music video so this imagery was mainly compiled BY MY IDEAS /YEAH/ * There IS an old Fanmade video to the song ( bUT IT IS NOT OFFICIAL/SEMI-OFFICIAL BY ANY MEANS ) ( unlike the well-known "KageDaze" fanmade video by Wannyanpuu ) [ who later became one of the official Kagepro animators ] ( her music video there was not official but there have been seeming throwbacks to her style in other official music videos at times ... ) * However the Gunjou Rain fanmade video DOES give a clear example of how the original song should be viewed for that canon (should you be interested) * PSUEDO-character deaths implied in song hOWEVER * IT'S MOSTLY VIA FLASHBACKS ..... IT'S A VERY PRETTY SONG I SWEAR ..... * The Psuedo-death does not involve the major character [officially] but it does involve a side/supporting character in original Kagepros series * Psuedo-deaths involving Taishiro/KOUSHIRO ARE here as usual however * part of these were, yes, again lifted from my much earlier KageDaze / Red videos (specifically the “Red” edit clip) * oK BUT * THERE'S A GORGEOUS ELECTRIC GUITAR SOLO TOWARDS THE END * Multiple parts of this thing DEFINITELY gave me trouble ( mainly : matching up lyrics to my ficverse while different story themes OTL ) * and also matching them to scenes that aren't filler * later on I'll go and smooth it over + fix glitches but fOR NOW /YEAH/

* I THREW IN SOME 2020!TAISHIROS FOR MAXIMUM FEELS ( THANK YOU TOEI ) ....................................... ;;;;;; ;A;/

{ LYRICS } [ Verses 1 ]

" I CAN'T SLEEP , " YOU wailed,

... so I read you   a storybook ,

... As the raindrops KNOCKED on the roof. ...

When I put in the bookmark ,

and said   I’ll read it again TOMORROW , ...

... You were already snoozing away . ...

... ( instrumental ) [ Verses 1-2 ]

You say you  WANT TO GO   OUT , but the reason  I DON'T  LET YOU ,

... ISN'T BECAUSE I " HATE YOU " AT ALL ... ...

... Yes, it’s about   CONVENIENCE ---

BUT IT PAINS ME IN MY CHEST .

... So I’ve said  " SORRY "  AGAIN AND AGAIN . ... [ Verses 1-3 ]

There’s  A W O R L D  STARTING TO  S P I N ,

And I HAVEN'T EVEN   TOLD YOU  ... about it   yet

But   I TELL YOU ,

" DON'T MAKE "     " EYE CONTACT " ,

so that   SOMEDAY ,

... YOU and    YOUR EYES

CAN DO WHAT  YOU     “ LIKE ”

WITH THE    WORLD  .....

[ Chorus 1 ]

I   HATED   YESTERDAY ,

I   HATED   THE W O R L D ,

BUT I'VE   CHANGED ,

and I’ll     LOVE     TOMORROW

... And might you   REALIZE      " LOVE " ,

MEET S O M E O N E ,

... And  MAKE   A FUTURE    OF YOUR  OWN ?

On your "bed" , you happily    SNOOZE ,

And  IT MAKES ME  SO  HAPPY ,

I’m   ON THE VERGE OF   T E A R S .....

... ( instrumental )

[ Verses 2 ]

There’s more stillness in the night.

Through the gaps in the trees,

... Pleasant breezes continue to blow . ...

... ( instrumental )

Will " TOMORROW " be  SUNNY ?

My chest starts to  HURT AGAIN .

... / I CAN'T LET YOU GO OUTSIDE / . ...

... ( instrumental ) [ Verses 2-2 ]

Making excuses for my sleeplessness,

I REMEMBER SOMETHING .

... A MEMORY from MY YOUTH . ...

ALWAYS WITH MY      “ FATHER ” ( ? )

I waited for [ MY MOTHER ] to [ RETURN ] , ( ?? )

... Though I’d already   WAITED  ��[ “ DECADES ” ( ??? ) ] . ... [ Verses 2-3 ]

... While [ I ] spent my time alone ,

I    FELL IN LOVE    MYSELF ,

... and things got   B U S Y  ... for me.

... And YOU can   " L O V E "   THIS  SAME WORLD  TODAY ,

With YOUR EYES ,

... and the   WONDERFUL THINGS   you do ...

[ Chorus 2 ]

DAYS   COME AND GO ,

SEASONS PASS ,

I WIPE   YOUR TEARS ,

... AND YOU  S M I L E .

And   FOR THAT    ALONE ,

I want to   HOLD ONTO   YOU   TIGHT

... Or so I   FIND MYSELF   THINKING ...

And if   THE FUTURE   is TO COME

" KNOCKING " ONE of THESE DAYS ,

I want to  SEND THEM OFF

with REASSURANCE and a S M I L E . ...

... ( instrumental / interlude ) ...

[ Interlude Verses ]

... A SUDDEN FAREWELL to  THE WORLD I'D GROWN SO FOND OF.

A FRIGHTENING FAREWELL , one which leaves   you   SO SAD .

                                            I COULDN'T SAY

                              { " I’m sorry . " }     { " Gomen Ne " }

{ FURTHER NOTES }

the fanmade music video for original themes (/not/ official or by producers in any way): [ however it's basically exactly what happens canon-wise /yup/ ] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGndj2aIEm4 

 spoilery notes RE: PSUEDO DEATHS / WARNINGS: * the singer in the song is the mother of Mary in Kagepro who is a Medusa. * "Don't make eye contact" / etc. re: "EYES" is all related to that plot in Kagepros * in Repeatverse / this AMV this is all working qUITE different hOWEVER * YOSHIE DOES PROBABLY TRY TO INTERFERE AT SOME POINTS * PARTICULARLY IN VAMDEMON ARC y E A H * BOTH IZUMIS PROBABLY ATTEMPT TO LATER ON AS WELL * obviously they're doing this to PROTECT KOUSHIRO re the middle portion verses: * this is also more Kagepros relevant than 'verse relevant but I tried to match it up OTL * basically Kagepros mother is re: above spoiler ALSO part Medusa. She waits decades for her own "mother" to return * I tried to manipulate these bits here with Koushiro and Yoshie / Izumis * basically uh in some timelines MAYBE Yoshie ends up "waiting" in similar ways * i.e. maybe the entire Izumi family could become affected aT POINTS ......... * POSSIBLY INVOLVING IZUMIS WE NEVER REALLY GOT TO SEE ......... * but yeah those lines are probably better read from Koushiro's POV before switching back to Yoshie * i.e. maybe in some timelines it's KOUSHIRO waiting for YOSHIE to return etc * in others Masami or Mr Izumi ends up going first to protect them BOTH and yEAH * in fact it's probably Mr Izumi who first tries to intervene to protect them but * Yoshie gets upset she's not able to do anything * maybe there's timelines that alternate with this theme though

* a bunch of things in notes above kinda were vaguely ?? ? included in the 'verse in this part: https://archiveofourown.org/works/14414505/chapters/40780040 ( which was ALSO inspired by the same song uh ..... yup )

^ I included A BUNCH OF REFERENCE LINKS ABOVE to some of my past posts / Koushiro caps and Japanese version references so you can get a better idea of the themes + Koushiro character develoment / introspections all being presented here + AND HOW TRI’S KOUSHIRO STORYLINE DIRECTLY TIES IN TO EVERYTHING CONNECTED/PRESENTED TO THE ORIGINAL ADVENTURE / 02 STORYLINE SCENES WITH YOSHIE {/KAE}

AND KOUSHIRO’S TENDENCY TO

“Speak formally” * and how he

IMPROVES THROUGHOUT 02/TRI

(I hope my implications are coming through?!???)

( * Since apparently the wider Western / US / English dub fandom tends to COMPLETELY not understand Japanese version!Koushiro’s implied / extended storyline re: him speaking formally most of the time

[also in relation to his use of Japanese honorifics] +

{his insisting use of “ Taichi-san” may ALSO be relevant} and how this all connects to HIS ADOPTION STORYLINE even though . KOUSHIRO’S STORY is ... REALLY NOT that hard to understand you guys COME ON... ... ;;)

* SOMEDAY * SOMEDAY I’LL BE ABLE TO COMPILE ALL THIS KOUSHIRO + IZUMI FAMILY INTROSPECTIONS INTO A * ACTUALLY COHESIVE ANALYSIS

* but today is not that day so HAVE THIS AMV INSTEAD ;A;/

* A RELEVANT AND VERY GOOD KOUSHIRO META POST ( not by me but RELEVANT TO THESE THOUGHTS / THEMES )

Digimon Adventure + Digimon Adventure: (2020 Reboot Anime) ~ Comparisons / Parallels ( + Animation / Character Design Parallels ) + Meta / Character Analysis featuring character: KOUSHIRO(U) [‘Izzy’ in US] Izumi in Digimon Adventure: (2020) Episode 01 vs. Digimon Adventure Episode 24 + Koushiro’s Possessed / Pouty ? / Moody ? Face / Expressions + Koushiro’s canon tendency to NOT pick up on others’ emotions / Connect well

This is a very subtle animation tendency / character aspect of Koushiro’s, that’s actually (thus far!!) only appeared a few times in the series’ canon. Most fans may overlook this aspect of him and his design / implied personality traits, but Koushiro fans in general may tend to pick up on it more often.

Notable aspects of it appeared in Episode 24, the episode where Koushiro first obtained his Crest of Knowledge, and fought Vademon with Tentomon. In this episode, Koushiro gets his “ INQUISITIVE HEART ” (JPN version) taken by Vademon, who convinces Koushiro to “willingly” give it up. Later in the same episode, it becomes particularly noticeable during such instances as: - Koushiro communicating with Taichi via a sudden PC connection, [ the heavily narrowed eyes and subtle blinkings, etc. ] - Koushiro giving up his Crest and “possessions”, - Koushiro yelling at Pabumon who began crying at him, to ‘ not distract him ’ etc.

( ^ Notice how he’s void of emotions at start, but quickly becomes pouty / upset when Pabumon cries notably at him, “distracting” him. ) I was really surprised to see this subtle expression / change in his typical character design actually appear suddenly again in Digimon Adventure 2020 Ep. 01 - we hadn’t really seen it much at all since Episode 24!! ... But at the same time, I’m also kind of not surprised? Japanese fandom has seemed to pick up on the expression more often than Western fandom has - it’s appeared often, at times, in Japanese fandom fanarts, especially those featuring Episode 24 Inquisitive Heart-less!Koushiros in general. It’s particularly noticeable in a LOT of older Koushiro doujinshi from particular circles of the early 2000s era, which tend to emphasize the subtle narrowing of Koushiro’s eyes and the odd “roundness” of his face/cheeks that is emphasized by this subtle style / design change. The little marks under his eyes, as well. Not only the narrowing of his eyes, but his eyes tend to become somewhat “blank(er)” during this kind of expression, as well.

Essentially, it is an expression that appears notably on Koushiro when he is having difficulties with his own emotions, and, connecting with others.

Digimon Adventure (Movie) > “ Our War Game ”

featuring ship Taichi Yagami x Koushiro Izumi [Taishiro(u)] a later scene vs. the scene in the middle + Apologies & Character Development .

( ...... IT NEVER HAPPENS AGAIN. )

[izzyizumi]

{Pretends to be Shocked TM at how close it sounds.}

From the official (U.S. dub based/produced) {NOT written by Jeff Nimoy, FYI, And Yet} [still-official] guidebook: [Note: It’s written from “Tai”’s point of view!]:

“Izzy might be the smartest kid I know. And there’s really only one way to describe him - Izzy’s a computer nerd. One of the first questions I ever heard him ask about {the} DigiWorld was, {Dub version}: “Do you have Internet access?” He carries his laptop computer with him everywhere he goes.”

{Digimon P.S.P Game}:

{Sub version[s]}: (Huh, what a strange coincidence):

“{Dub version-implied} CDs make him think about information storage, not his favorite rock band. But I have to give the little runt a hand - he’s pretty brave, and his understanding of computers sure has come in handy in this digital world.”

{Sub version} [+02 Epilogue!]:

[from the Digimon Adventure official novels] (written by Adventure+02 head director/writer Hiroyuki Kakudou; Hiro Masaki, Koushiro’s main writer, also contributed about 1/3rd due to having experience in writing screenplays, thus, Kakudou asked him for help on it):

(Pictured Above: the one part of my diagnosis I’m actually comfortable sharing. That’s because other parts of it are private medical info y’know.): [Pictured below: my original Digi-T.C.G. collection. [Most still on hand] Still in original folder from childhood at time were my V.H.S. tape Bonus cards with the 1st 7 Chosen, as Kari was not included]: (Do you see some of the wear on the folder?)

“{Name} spent the entire time closed up in {their} room on the computer. Digimon and P.O.K.E.M.O.N are {their} passion. {They} spend countless hours on the computer writing stories about the Digimon characters. {They} have encyclopedia knowledge regarding these characters,”

[2020 reboot!Koushiro {even} knowing completely Unnecessary TM encyclopedia-like knowledge about WALTZING!!! of all things]

[“Your valued possessions”] {See: Autistic Koushiro series} [SPECIAL Interests + {Possible} Protectiveness over them]

(Multiple times, even in the 2020 version; Koushiro acting possessive over computers/tech and/or tablet):

“...has collected all the cards, and could talk incessantly about Digimon if a listener allowed. {Blanked out for private medical info reasons} most children are...”

{See: Posts relevant to formal speech patterns} [x] [x] [x] [Koushiro in the original version is also implied to speak using ‘formal’-esque Japanese speech.]

(Sora: “What about you, Koushiro-kun?” Koushiro: “Y-Yes!” [“H-Hai!”] {only light stammer being suddenly addressed, then firm): “I’ve always believed in Taichi-san before this, in any case.”)

“...over, never talks on the phone and is difficult to even take to the shopping mall unless {they} are going to purchase a Digimon item. If {they} are allowed to, {they} would spend the whole weekend watching taped Digimon and {PKMN} shows, and writing stories on the computer.”

“{Name} is perfectly content not having to interact with the outside world.”

SO YEAH. IF IZZY - or (Sub version TOO) Koushiro - was ever a character you HEAVILY (in any series!!) RELATED to - you might want to look into (if wanted!) an Autism diagnosis, because they sure thought I WAS. (The above was my middle school ‘evaluation’ that led to my eventual re-confirmed/re-evaluated diagnosis.) Thank you for your time!! Hope this can help someone / any Digimon fans!!!! (You’re welcome)

{Some Digi-Fans @ Me: ‘Explain Koushiro Izumi!!!1!’ mE: “ YOU ASKED!!!1! ”}

{ALL GIFS/PICS BY ME} {DO NOT re-post} [DO NOT re-post my diagnosis copies outside of this post] [I. WILL. KNOW] {PLEASE ASK TO USE, I spent some 5~+ years compiling them all!}

Digimon Adventure x Digimon Adventure tri ~ featuring CHARACTER: Koushiro[u] Izumi [Koushiro “Izzy” Izumi in US dub] (+relationship with Mimi Tachikawa) [+Taichi Yagami] + IMPORTANT DIALOGUES (in Adventures & connecting to tri.) + CHARACTER/STORY PROGRESSION

also known as: KOUSHIRO vs. COMMUNICATION {further a.k.a: Communication Is Hard.}

{the following related quotes and information relates more specifically to Tri!Koushiro. There will be minimal spoilers for both his & Mimi’s roles in tri, without majorly spoiling the ending / plot surrounding Meiko.}

“I WISH THAT KOUSHIRO would act more spoiled and unreasonable instead of always keeping it inside”

“like a 'GOOD BOY’”

“I want him to tell me what he LIKES”

“and” “HATES”

“That’s what being A KID is all about!”

“...Don’t you think so?”

- Mrs Izumi, Adventure Episode 31 (Japanese version)

{... Or maybe it would have been better if you

NEVER SAID ANYTHING AT ALL.}

- {Koushiro, internally, @ himself, Often, Probably} [?]:

Original Posters’ {Mine} Commentary:

{Some Food For Thought TM, Maybe}

(a refresher, of relevant Koushiro backstory potentials from the novels written by Adventure director Kakudou!) {I tend to refer to these passages a Lot when discussing or analyzing Koushiros concepts for Reasons}: [with translations thanks to Onkei; as tumblr refuses to show posts with links in the tags nowadays, please check in comments if you want the links to novels, thank you!]

- from the opening chapters; when lost on File Island

- from the part covering Adventure episode 28; a.k.a. “the Gate”:

“Before now, before he had come to the Digital World, Koushiro had considered himself

an insignificant and WORTHLESS human being.”

{Note: it should be important to be kept in mind that Koushiro within this point of the pre-series story [Novels, above] is 10~ years old and he’s been feeling those things SINCE HE WAS A TINY CHILD [Ages 5~10].}

{“THERE’S NOTHING WRONG WITH BEING [INTO/OBSESSED WITH] COMPUTERS!”} [Note: in novels, it’s translated as “obsessed with”.]

BONUS:

{from later in the same sequence of Adventure #31, above}:

{from later on in Tri; Kyousei ending}:

THE BIGGEST BONUS:

tri. head Director Motonaga: As tri. is connected to 02, the entire theme of this work is depicting what the first generation of Chosen Children would be thinking about as they become adults.

Because the question of what kind of adults they’ll become has already been answered, we’re working on the problem of getting to that answer, in a sort of reverse problem-solving.

(on Koushiro) As Koushiro begins to try changing his clothes in Part 1, he wants to become someone who can do something by himself.

- Otomedia, February 2016 (Digimon Adventure tri. interview) [with translation credit thanks to website DigiLab Blog!]

“what they were learning in Tri.”: (KOUSHIRO):

“ After understanding about himself, GAINS ABILITY TO UNDERSTAND OTHERS. Learns to easily/OPENLY ACCEPT OTHERS’ LOVE TOWARDS HIM .”

- from a post-Tri livestream interview given by Kazumasa Habu (who, along with Kenji Watanabe and Mr. Maekawa, are members) of the Digimon Staff that works with the LCD Virtual Pets [with translation via Onkei]

{pictured: Habu holds up the planning sheet for Tri.}

MIMI - ‘selfishness’{-like quality, aka ‘Jikochu’ in Ketsui} disappears, learns to be courteous towards others

[&] Learns not to expect others to be sweet on her "just because she's a girl." {<- this includes Koushiro Izumi!} learns that when it's necessary, she'll have to get dirty herself and give in to things.

start of {Kokuhaku} / {Confession} [Movie #3]:

(earlier on, as well), {Ketsui}:

{Kyousei} / {Coexistence}; Movie #5: {when she becomes stuck in a familiar-to-the-viewers setting with Tentomon}:

[hey, wouldn’t you know, she’s very clearly not upset with Koushiro anymore?]

{Kizuna}:

[the last we have of Original!Koushiro so far, from the credits; he’s now the head of his own company, having learnt how to UNDERSTAND others while openly ACCEPTING LOVE towards HIMSELF, from the people who CARE about him, {and even simply learning how to communicate in TEAMS}]

(people who CARE ABOUT HM): {ALSO KNOWN AS: HIS FRIENDS} & {HIS FAMILY}

“KNOWING NOTHING is just a chance to learn new things, RIGHT?”

“PLEASE KEEP LEARNING NEW THINGS,

... AND ENJOYING IT.”

{Note: this post is part of a series discussing Koushiro using canonical references and quotations from the original Japanese version [and not the U.S. dub] to attempt to explain his progressing storyline; you can view more of my headcanons thoughts and analysis at my Neurodivergent Koushiro analysis series!}

Digimon Adventure vs Digimon Adventure: [2020 Reboot] ~ vs. Digimon Adventure tri. Movie 3 [Kokuhaku (Confession)] (Autistic Headcanon!)Koushiro Izumi Character Analysis + ~ Comparisons / Parallels (Japanese version) + Displaying Common Neurodivergent {+Autistic} Traits {In General} + "Without” Accessibility/Accomodations vs "With” {or, the difference of a 90s era laptop and a 2020 high performing tablet} (compare Adventure Episode 10 with Adventure 2020, above) + {Incorrectly} often Perceived as “ Cold ” (by Others) + Unintentionally Missing Social Cues “Well, it’s true that Koushiro {“lacks charm”}...” “But {Koushiro}’s not a {“bad” child}.” “I think {Koushiro}’s a REALLY GOOD {Child}/{Person}.”

(notably with Mimi, + relevant in his early interactions with Meiko) {to a lesser extent, this is ALSO NOTABLE in Koushiro’s interactions with Taichi, [ later Adventure + Our War Game (2nd Adventure Movie in Japan) ] arguably his closest friend }

“{ WHEN HE GETS CAUGHT UP IN SOMETHING },” ″HE JUST DOESN’T { NOTICE } { ANYTHING ELSE }.” - Tentomon explaining to Mimi, Adv Ep 10

+ “Koushiro IS DOING EVERYTHING HE CAN TO HELP YOU !”:

“ABOUT KOUSHIRO...” “He’s  INVESTIGATING THIS WITH ALL HIS HEART...”

“ HE SAYS IT’S ALL HE CAN DO . ”

( after a long moment, Taichi sounds tense and insistent as he’s asking Meiko to FORGIVE KOUSHIRO after Koushiro was interrogating her earlier, missing more cues. Mimi had once again herself been slightly upset with Koushiro, and for Meiko’s sake. ) [ SO ... ] ”

- Digimon Adventure tri.: SOUSHITSU [‘LOSS’] ( Japanese version ) ~ When Tentomon is stuck together with Mimi in a familiar past location, { familiar to Mimi as well } Mimi, who was previously frustrated with Koushiro, {due to instances of him missing her + Meikos social cues} then ends up saying the above, encouraging Tentomon and recognizing Koushiro’s helpfulness. ( COMPARE to all of the above scenes with them all. ) “KOUSHIRO-KUN, HUH? HE’D BE A GREAT HELP IF HE WERE HERE.” - Mimi to Tentomon, about Koushiro

- Digimon Adventure: [2020 Reboot] Episode 03 ~ Koushiro babbling on, completely missing Taichis’ social cue {standing stock still & shocked} until the last moment; Koushiro then glances away, avoiding eye contact / looking at Taichi.

DIGIMON ADVENTURE EPISODE 38 (Japanese version):

“ THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH BEING INTO COMPUTERS ! ”

{“THAT TRAIT OF YOURS IS WHAT MAKES YOU WHO YOU ARE.”}

“ YOU DON’T HAVE TO CHANGE YOURSELF FOR US . ”

BONUS:

{ I try to keep in mind "Our War Game”, the 2nd released Adventure movie in Japan, was not directly written by Hiroyuki Kakudou, the head director of Adventure + 02, but considering various things such as Omegamon’s debut from it is still often referenced and recognized by the staff ... }:

[ note: “This is no time for fights!” is being said by YAMATO. ]

[ and not much later on, during a highly dramatic battle moment... ]

Taichi: (after a long silence; apologizing to Koushiro) ... Sorry. Koushiro: It’s fine. (COMPARE to the above; later scene of Tri!Taichi blatantly defending Koushiro to Meiko.) {*NOTES: THIS IS A FAN META POST. This is also my particular headcanon / analysis of Koushiro Please keep this in mind before you comment.}

Digimon Adventure: [Reboot (2020)] ~ Theories

-> THE MIASMA is ALREADY IN / OR WILL EVENTUALLY BE SPREAD THROUGHOUT

-> THE “NETWORK”

original theory post / analysis gifs

+ Details of “The Network” {in specifically Adventures-verses} so far +:

“Koushiro’s character is supposed to be internet savvy,” “so we wanted him to study the Network and Digital World holistically.”

“So we purposely separated him.” (earlier on; in Episodes 03 ~ onwards, for a time)

“Something or someone’s will could be at work …”

“Maybe, maybe not.”

“But to them,

EVERYTHING is NEW and MYSTERIOUS.”

BONUS:

-> all of this eventually leading straight to DEATHMON...?

Digimon Adventure Tri ~ Episode 11 / Movie 3 [Kokuhaku (Confession)] vs./Near-Direct Parallels with: Digimon Adventure: (2020 Reboot anime) ~ Episode 14 featuring Koushiro(u) Izumi [“Koushiro ‘Izzy’ Izumi” in US] + Tentomon (tri) / Kabuterimon (2020)’s Pep Talks

“ Nani mo dekinai ! ” - 2020!Koushiro, [“ I can’t do anything ! ”]

“ Nani mo dekinai ! ”

“ Nani mo dekinai... Dekinai, dekinai, dekinai !!! ” [ “ I can’t do anything... ” ] [ “ I can’t, I can’t, I CAN’T !!! ”] - Tri!Koushiro, with increasing distress leading into outright sobbing

BONUS/CONTINUED:

“ ... But, you’re different now. ” “ Seems rough. ” “ Of course ! Think of our situation!! ” (Koushiro then hangs his head down) “ ... Sorry. ... ”

(Tentomon) “ I don’t want to see you like this. ” “ It’s painful. ” (Koushiro) “ Tentomon . . . ” (Tentomon lowers head, then raises it again) “ There’s only one thing to do. ” (Koushiro startles in response) --

(a few moments later) “ ... A Reboot ? ” (Tentomon) “ We can’t do that on our own. But if that’s what it comes to ... We Digimon are already prepared. (Koushiro turns back to his computer setup. His shadow is on the screen) “ A Reboot will fix all the issues ? ”

“ IF THERE’S HOPE ...

THEN I CAN MAKE A PLAN ! ”

“ Indeed, Koushiro-han. There’s HOPE. There’s   A CHANCE !  ”

“ ALWAYS     reaching     for  HOPE  and  CHANCES , FRANTICALLY     LEARNING , ”

“ THAT’S THE KOUSHIRO-HAN     I KNOW ! ” - Tri!Tentomon, thinking to himself, in the following dialogue

OP’s commentary:

... So are we as a fandom not going to talk about how DigiAdv 2020′s Episode 14′s resolution (or the START of the resolution) of Koushiro’s internal troubles / conflicts / problems is essentially near-exactly the same as in TRI / KOKUHAKU ?

Or this?:

“ Is it wrong to WANT TO KNOW EVERYTHING ?” - Koushiro in Adventure Episode 24 (Japanese)

OR THIS?:

from the Digimon Adventure novels written by Adv director Kakudou:

- from the chapter reflecting Adventure Episode 28, the scene where Koushiro helps to figure out the cards

... Or am I going to have to keep making all these Koushiro canonical scenes comparisons posts MYSELF ???

^ - IZUMI FAMILY; Adventure Episode 38:

(Koushiro to Izumis) “I tried to pretend I hadn’t heard anything. I thought that by acting normal, things would stay as they did before ... But I couldn’t do it. The more I tried to act as if things hadn’t changed, the more [strange/weirder] it felt ... In the end... I grew drawn to my computer so I wouldn’t have to show anyone MY TRUE SELF ...”

(closeup on Mr. Izumi, insistently): “ There is NOTHING WRONG WITH BEING INTO COMPUTERS ! ”

(Koushiro looks up, surprised): “Father...” (Mr. Izumi): “That trait of yours is what     MAKES YOU WHO YOU ARE. ”

+ more on “ You don’t have to change yourself for us ” (at the link !)

2020!Koushiro, Episode 14:

“ I was so desperate to be EVERYONE’S HELP ALL THE TIME ... IT BECAME DEFAULT FOR ME to always make judgements through this [TABLET]. I had forgotten about my OWN SELF, ... WHO WAS SITTING IN FRONT OF THE MONITOR. ” “ Until you reminded me, KABUTERIMON. ”

“ EVEN MACHINES have days WHEN THEY DON’T FEEL WELL, LIKE HUMANS. When that happens, you just have to reassess your abilities and overcome ! ” - 2020!Kabuterimon to Koushiro

Digimon's " To Sora " reaction

me: *has SEVERE social anxiety that, despite my tendency for YELLING A LOT in tumblr tags, leaves me withdrawing into myself and disappearing from communicating with others due to fears of becoming hurt and overwhelmed, which has also happened WAY too many times in the past for comfort*

me: *is ALSO autistic which has a lot of the SAME "becoming overwelmed" issues re: social interaction, etc.*

me: *watches Digimon Adventure (Last Evolution Kizuna)'s "To Sora" short story film*

me: Wow I wonder why I'm relating to this sO HARD

ALSO me: *knows Toei is probably just trying to give a genuine REASON now as to why Sora can't be given some 90%+ of the screentime in Kizuna, because, surprise surprise, there are 8 kids in the main cast and 12 otherwise, even MORE if you include other recent Chosen like Tri's Meiko*

ALSO ME: " THIS IS 5 MILLION TIMES BETTER THAN HER 5 OR SO MOMENTS OF SCREENTIME IN "REVENGE OF DIABOROMON" T B H ", where she mostly sTOOD OFF TO THE SIDE and only got to show up in support at the VERY end, or OWG where she was basically left out from fighting entirely because she was upset at Taichi about a hairclip

ME: I MEAN DID YOU SEE THAT GORGEOUS FLOWER ARRANGEMENT AT THE END TITLED " FRIENDS " WHICH IS SUCH A HUGE CONTRAST IN COMPARISON

ME: anyway people will still undoubtedly try to claim otherwise but "To Sora" is good

in which I lament over the continuous total lack of recognition of Taichi's onging (since Adv 24 AND earlier) character developments in Adventure 'fandom'

Some Adventure 'Fan': Tri!Taichi was ALL WRONG it's OUT OF CHARACTER for him to be WORRIED about the normal citizens of ODAIBA he should be CHARGING IN FEARLESS AND RECKLESS and DUMB because CREST OF COURAGE he can't POSSIBLY react ANY OTHER WAY OR IT'S "OOC"-----

M E, ONLY /JUST/ GETTING OVER THE FEAR OF A POTENTIAL /CATEGORY 4-5 HURRICANE/ /WRECKING MY CHILDHOOD HOMES/ AND TBH /I'M STILL WORRYING UNTIL IT'S GONE FOR GOOD/: (even though HE STOPPED DOING THAT RIGHT AFTER /ADVENTURE EPISODE 24/ WHERE HE WENT BACK HOME BRIEFLY and tbh /HE EVEN WAS STOPPING BEING AS RECKLESS EVEN A BIT BEFORE)/,,,,,

M E: (BANGING FISTS DOWN!!!) ANYWAY TRI!TAICHI WAS RIGHT AND WAS DOING THE RIGHT THINGS (BY CARING ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE including all the citizens not even directly involved but would have DEFINITELY felt the fallout)!!!!!

[izzyizumi]

normal Digimon fans: Excitedly watching the new trailer!!! Everyone looks so cute/cool!!! Wow I'm so excited!!!

ME: *** AGGRESSIVELY ANALYZING EVERY LITTLE DETAIL I CAN POSSIBLY NOTICE *** *** WHILE ALSO TRYING TO REMEMBER EVERY SINGLE SCRAP OF INFO AND INTERESTING ANALYSIS I EVER READ IN OLD INTERVIEWS AND METAS, WHILE ALSO------- ***
