I will never forgive the dub for making Kouji a rude asshole
He’s just awkward and didn’t know how to communicate with the others so his behavior came off as rude towards them, stop misunderstanding his character 😭😭
why yes, I am indeed a part of 3 different fandoms where 90% of the fanbase screams about how two seasons are the best and the rest all suck ass (they just hate whimsy and fun)
Listen, I will forever accept Takuya as the shortest of the group(Tomoki doesn’t count as he’s younger than the rest) as canon and no one can stop me. The fucker is literally shorter than Izumi and while yes I know it’s most likely because of animation errors and not knowing the scaling of the characters but I always have the fucking image of Takuya being shorter than Izumi and Kouji stuck in my head
So I’m currently in my frontier feels so imma just spout random headcanons
#1, whenever the group sees anything that reminds them of the digital world they would most definitely get all caught up in their memories of their adventure. It makes for great scenarios especially if there’s anyone close to them nearby like a friend or family member and they’re just confused as to why they stopped to stare at something
2#, I like to think that they inherited the enhanced senses, that they had back in the digital world, in the human world since I know it’d be most unlikely that they inherited physical things from the spirits so this is the second best for me to think about.
3#, they definitely would create code names for the digital world just in case anyone were to eavesdrop on them whether it be accidentally or purposefully.
4#, I feel like they would definitely go overboard with things like birthday parties, they would do anything to make sure that they made celebrations a special memory they’d remember forever.
5#, they most definitely remembered the days they got their spirits and threw parties for it(cause as Kouji said, it’s like they have two birthdays, one in the human world and one in the digital world)
I hate it when the happy ending for characters with trauma is that they get into a relationship with someone, getting into a relationship doesn’t just suddenly erase the traumatic memories and experiences.
Trauma isn’t something that just goes away because someone now loves and cares about you, sure it may hurt less but it’s still there at the back of your mind, so it’s very upsetting when a character is suddenly okay now that they’re in a relationship. ☹️
Also, I don’t like when people make it seem like the other person understands their suffering, because no they don’t. They can sympathize sure, but they cannot understand the pain and horrors they went through. This is why a ship from a current fandom I’m in is a NOTP of mine, it’s because of the fact that this dynamic is literally the whole thing with that pairing.
Strength: we are alien fuckers first human second
Silence: we really aren’t
Strength: stfu Silence you legit cannot talk, you literally are the alien.
Every time I see a Poyomon I get Cyber Sleuth flashbacks
God why was that Poyomon so god damn strong fdrehhwtseghdthus
I absolutely love how in canon both Takuya and Daisuke are shorter than everyone on their team(Iori and Tomoki are exceptional cause they’re younger, tho I think Hikari is either the same height as Daisuke or just a little bit shorter) and yet there are so many fanfiction writers who make them taller than they really are 😅
Like I shit you not, I see so many fanfictions where Takuya is fucking taller than Izumi and maybe sometimes taller than Kouji, nah the bitch is fucking SMALL. If I could cry for every time I saw a fanfic where Daisuke was somehow taller than Ken and/or Takeru then I would be crying a fucking sea.
