#02beginning spoilers

Went to watch 02beginning again and I just keep crying for them, thank you uwu

Where do you think they are going?

[orifumioshi]

Realized I never shared my thoughts on my rewatch of 02beginning. This time I went with my aunt (who stopped watching Digimon after 02 because of "the epilogue ships" and only knows the rest of the Digimon series thanks to me).

Spoilers ahead as usual but first, let me tell you what my aunt told me right after we got out of the cinema: "Where can I get a Rui and Ukkomon plushie?"

Don't really have much stuff to say, just things I noticed that I couldn't have possible thought in my first watch.

You know in Rui's 8th bday party (2000)? Ukkomon said "I promised I would bring your friends to your party but they were busy"; I thought he meant it as in his school friends, in my rewatch it was when I realized that Ukkomon was talking about Taichi and co. you know, the "chosen children". I should have noticed it when we saw Armagemon and Omegamon on the TV but I didn't XDD.

Also an interesting remark my aunt did when we saw Ukkomon melt; she said that "Oh, so that's like the fairies? like when you stop believing in them they die?" and I thought it was a very interesting remark :3c not very wild tbh.

And the visual lighthing regarding Rui! I mean, I noticed it in my first watch but this time I watched it being more consious about it; how Rui is almost always left in the "shadows", his digivice being split in light and shade AND the most important one, when Rui grabbed his mom's hand, the mom was in the shadows while Rui was the one in the light this time.

The one thing I still don't quite wrasp is that if Rui was able to change the past or if he just healed his wounds. Either way, it doesn't seems like it changed the "time".

Well, I think that's all. I promise to come with more once I am able to watch it in japanese to compare what I remember the spanish dialogues to be also, we missed the "Unkomon" joke of course XDDD. I couldn't listen quite well (again OTL) but I think the spanish dub went for something like "Kukomon"?

Anyway, my aunt is now also a Rui and Ukkomon oshi, thank you uwu

*ehem* Sorry. I'm ok. Anyway... Digimon Survive uwu and as an extra: I, myself, was supposed to be born on Feb 29 but I went ahead of time and ruined my mom's telenovela finale by being born on Friday 23rd (ง ื▿ ื)ว

Ok so, I just came back home from watching and I'm still shaking.

02beginning SPOILERS AHEAD!

Because I went to the very first screening at 12 pm, we were only 6 in the room and one guy went cosplaying as Dukemon (was too shy to ask for a proper pic because he was with his girlfriend).

*ehem* well, onto the movie... THANK GOD HERE IN MEXICO FOR THE LATAM SPANISH DUB WE NEVER GOT THE EVOLUTION SONGS DUBBED BECAUSE LISTENING TARGET AND BEAT HIT IN THE CINEMA WAS SUCH A DELIGHT AND A BLESSING I COULDN'T STOP SHAKING and yes, I cried a bit.

The experience of being welcomed with Bolero with an overwhelming audio is something I'll never forget but onto the plot.

Because I thought I would have to wait years to watch it, I actually looked for spoilers but nothing very explicit tbh, I also saw people saying there was body horror but honestly, Ghost Game had it "worse" xD so I wasn't that bothered by what Ukkomon did; he never did it with malice anyway, of course it was kind of... wrong? Awful? But he did it because he genuinely wanted for Rui to be happy; no one told them they had to talk in order to have a healthy relationship.

I don't think I ever felt so close with Daisuke before despite being a Dai oshi; I felt so angry with how Rui's mom treated him, being a 4 years old baby... this was the second time I cried in the movie (the first being listening target and don't believing that I was there watching xD) and I swear I wanted to cross the screen and scream at her a couple of things. Rui was genuinely a good boy (still is), going to talk to his sick dad about their day, I thought that was very sweet.

At the end, the "time travel" didn't really felt like that to me but rather a very immersive memories.

The evolutions sequence were beyond amazing so, nothing to say really xD just thankful that XV-mon and Stingmon were actually "drawn" rather than staying as CG and even so, the CGs were very neat.

I was quite worried about the dub but it seems the dialogues were done properly, at least taking in consideration what I remembered from the PVs. Thankfully we got Hikari, Iori and Ken having their same VA from Adventure along with the Digis; Daisuke and Takeru had their same VA from Lastevo and Miyako got a whole new voice but they did decent, they actually got quite well how the 02 gang is.

And Daisuke, oh my boi being the man I trust to ruin it with the police xD "why didn't you stopped me?!", I love you uwu and how he was the only one to tell Rui right to his face what he had to do.

The battle sequence was nice as well, I was worried for a moment to be honest and loved that scene where Miyako "ships" Daisuke and Ken-chan uwu

I knew we had to go in a big fight but I genuinely felt bad that the only solution was to defeat Ukkomon. I actually stayed until the post credits scene and I was happy to see Rui smile ;w;

So, in my humble opinion, it's a very good movie to add to the Digi Lore, it's very enjoyable and was what I needed for 02.

I saw people say that the movie doesn't solve the losing partners issue presented in Lastevo but I think that's not the case: Ukkomon gave the chosen children the Digivice via Homeostasis; considering that this "superior being" is indeed Homeostasis, this giving the partnership a tangible item to tie Digimons with Humans but, is that all?

I personally think that Takeru being anxious over losing their partners was justified after all, Yamato lose Gabumon so I understand why he would hesitate to kill Ukkomon; at the end, the Digivice was just that, a tangible bond but, they don't really need it, do they? Just like how in Adventure, Taichi and co. didn't needed the crests to evolve because their hearts were the actual crests.

The Digivice ties Digimon and Humans, yes but even without it, the bond is there so how does this solves the partners loss? As long as they have a bond, they will come back I mean, Ukkomon is coming back and Rui's Digivice is no more plus even after losing their D3s, Daisuke and co. still had their partners, right? This just shows that Digimon Survive was right in not giving their protagonist digivices: KIZUNA. We don't need the bond to be tangible, right?

Also, I almost screamed when Wallace was on screen with Terriermon and Lopmon ;w; it was nice to see Chichos too xD How did your dubs named her anyway? Here in Mexico it was changed to "Guadalupe"; Chichos sounds like "chichis" and that's a way to say "boobs".

Anyway, because I want more cards, I'll go to watch it again on Sunday because it's the only day I have free ;w; hope they don't run out of them, I want all my kids OTL
