Man, I don't even ship Yamato and Sora that much, but it's nice to have it written down, in the clearest possible terms, that there was never any intention to have Taichi and Sora get together. I feel like there's a chunk of the fandom that insists that Oh No, They Were Definitely Meant To Be A Couple, But Then It Was Changed because they can't quite conceive of a story in which the most prominent dude and most prominent girl don't get together.
YES EXACTLY MY POINT (THANK YOU)
THERE WAS ALSO THIS (WITH MORE KAKUDOU QUOTES)
AND THIS (RE: SORATO’S HONORIFICS USAGE + THEIR SIGNIFICANCE)(ALL OF THIS WENT COMPLETELY OVER THE WESTERN FANDOMS’ HEADS BECAUSE OF OUR DUB)
AND … YEAH
I LOVE DIGIMON ADVENTURES— and people here really do not give it ENOUGH credit anymore tbh ;;
Also, because this has just reminded me and it is both frustrating and kind of demonstrates very plainly that a lot of people just really struggled with the idea of the main dude not ‘getting the girl’:
