About movie parallels and telephatic connections

As a teenager I was quickly impacted by the bond Taichi and Sora (from Digimon) shared, much deeper than others, as brightly put in the novels:

“Because of the smooth two-top coordination that Taichi and Sora showed within their soccer plays, he must have gotten the mistaken impression that they shared a telepathic link. Perhaps he thought Sora would use it to get Taichi to come flying out to see him.”

It wasn’t just a male main character meant for the female one. It was conflictous, complex, realistic and pretty much solid. 

There was no way not to worship them.

Some say Sora is obsessed with windows but in reality she was trying to connect to Taichi all the time.

I’m getting older but still very much obsessed with Tai and Sora’s connection. Yes, I’m a nearly forty years taiora trash.

That said, I watched Past Lives some time ago and I couldn’t help but draw a parallel with my favorite ship from the anime world.

It’s all there: the long term friendship, the growing apart, the “what ifs”, the one-sidedness, the complexity, bittersweetness and tenderness beyond place and time.

No, it can’t stay like this forever. Something will always remain not only in this but beyond life. “There is a word in Korean. In-Yun. It means "providence” or “fate”. But it’s specifically about relationships between people. I think it comes from Buddhism and reincarnation. It’s an In-Yun if two strangers even walk by each other in the street and their clothes accidentally brush. Because it means there must have been something between them in their past lives.”

(Wait, let me remove something that just fell in my eye. :~)

And it’s funny how, in the Last Evolution Kizuna movie art, if we take away the other characters, Sora and Tai trace parallel paths. And, from what I remember from school, parallel lines meet at the end, at always, at infinity.

So, in my headcanon, all this adorable-stormy-irreplaceable relationship will only get stronger over the years (physically or not).

"Finally, let’s remember That less for less gives more love If the parallels will at infinity meet Why do it take so long for two hearts to integrate?” (Tom Jobim’s “Math Class” - my translation)

That´s all. For now. ;)

Lots of love! @earlgreymon and @dutchforstrangers this post is for you guys, just adore each one of yours.
