So, knowing Digimon Survive's existence and its story, themes, and story (and how SOME folks love it or hate it), I too have decided to make a Digimon Horror Story as well, called "Digimon Eldritch: A Monster's Game"

I called it that because of the eldritch capabilities of the Digital World and, for the second half of the title, the goggles-wearing 'main character' slowly becomes mad with power and insanity over becoming somewhat of a god of the Digital World, reigning control over everything and everyone, her reign acting as a sort of game for her. Thus, "Digimon Eldritch: A Monster's Game",

Even made art of it, too. And some fan-made Digimon designs, also. If you hadn't noticed by now.

[SPOILER TERRITORY! IF YOU DON'T WANT TO GET SPOILED FOR MY STORY WHICH IS STILL IN W.I.P, THEN I'M SORRY, BUT PERHAPS... WAIT A BIT? BUT FOR NOW, THAT'LL BE IT]

As for main characters, well I did mention the goggles-wearing 'main character' but due to her arc, I'll render her a villain rather than a "main character", I mean, I did make her so I could subvert the Digimon trope of "the one having goggles being the main lead" to "the one having goggles being the main villain". Other than that, as for the names of these characters... Even though most of the cast are Digimon, the true main character and the goggles-wearing antagonist are Aramita (nicknamed "Copper") and Alyssa (nicknamed "Goggles"), two friends-to-enemies, both troubled girls, one who believes in the good in everything, and the other wanting some way of escapism.

The first one to enter the Digital World was Alyssa aka "Goggles", who entered the world with no memory of her previous life or how she ended up in the Digital World, entering a building and meeting a Mummymon stirring up some soup, so it seems like she found a friend amidst the confusion she's going through, perhaps a lover maybe? Ahahahaaa... Oh, it ain't gonna go like that...

She then ends up going mad, becoming a god, and making everything under her very fingertips. Even before that, she just learned that everything could be what she desired, as if the world was made for her, with the very first thing she did was erase Arukenimon from physical form so she could have Mummymon for herself. Especially for other Digimon who she meets later in the story. (For example, Beelzemon, Myotismon, and even Piedmon of all people were subjected to Goggles' descent into madness)

The second one to enter the Digital World was Aramita aka "Copper". Before Goggles became mad with power and went down the path of villainy, Copper was a supportive friend of Goggles', who tries to give Goggles enough hope to at least experience the good in the world. She even had another friend, Tia "Glasses" Newton, who she felt inspired by. (But I'll save Tia for later...)

When Copper learned of the atrocities Goggles had committed upon the residents of the Digital World (especially Mummymon, Beelzemon, Myotismon, and Piedmon), she was horrified at how her friend, who had been missing for about months, perhaps a year, had become a monster beyond her comprehension. She always knew Goggles as outward and somewhat stubborn but always somewhat bold, despite her flaws, but never as... Whoever she is now.

So, the whole story is that they must go against Goggles and her twisted game of God, and if this were to be a video game; it could lead to two different routes: the Hope Route and the Despair Route.

The Hope route is the good ending route, meanwhile the Despair route is the bad ending route. Depending on your choices, the routes will reflect that: Hope makes the game easy with some bosses being about 50% a challenge, and that happens when you make good choices throughout, while Despair makes the game much harder with the bosses being 100% a challenge, and that happens when you make bad choices. There is seemingly no third ending unless certain choices and certain actions are to be made. This secret ending/route is the "Grace Route", however a Digimon design for Alyssa "Goggles" Haine's ascended form isn't made for this route yet.

Hope = Good End (though bittersweet by nature)

Despair = Bad End (the world ends as it all becomes a cosmic horror apocalypse)

Grace = Secret Ending

Aw shit they put the horrors of late stage capitalism into my Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 😔

(Mostly) Based on the mouthwashing dev QnA about each character’s favorite Pokémon. Couldn’t get the idea of throwing them into PMD out of my head.

Typical job at the Poke Express Guild:

Some more bonus drawings below

Jimmy secretly wishes he was a mega rayquaza but he’s just a poser who’s obsessed with pikachu’s popularity and position as the mascot. So. A mimikyu.

Daisuke is a zorua because it’s the closest to weregarurumon and I think it matches his vibes. Just a guy who causes a little bit o mischief here n there :)

I did make Daisukes weregarurumon wishes come true (No mega rayquaza for jim)

I couldn’t figure out what I wanted to do with the background so I threw them into the dungeon. WOE upon ye

This was going to reference a sibling dynamic meme, but I got too excited XD

Brief context: Height difference in a future where Ando becomes a wandering traveler and the lamb digivolves until it reaches its maximum potential.

Or something similar to that, hehe (ouo)

I hope you like it!

Extra: A little idea regarding my two sheep!

"Forever is a long time, little lamb..."

This is the moment where I comment that I like light angst, but it's rare that I prioritize it, so don't worry (?)

to the next stage of our adventure! digimon survive week 2024 day 7: post-game / future personal thoughts under the cut - less about the artwork and more about shuuji and lopmon themselves. a long rambling containing major spoilers and heavy topics. will cause whiplash. proceed with caution.

other than the fact this may be boring and long-winded, cw and tw: there will be mentions of self-harm and suicide. if these topics make you uncomfortable, please step back. if you're sure, then alright. i'm aware this is a weird place to ramble about shuuji and lopmon considering the notorious highlight of their story would match the themes of day 5 (villains) and day 6 (dark & loss) better. unfortunately (ironically?) i never planned to feature them for those days, so... pretty sure i'm not the only one feeling this, but when i discovered that a good part of the fandom seems to loathe shuuji with utmost passion, even after they claimed to have completed the game, i was confused. the way his death happened and (understanding) the cause made me uncomfortable for a while, but never drove me to the point of hate... once i recovered from the initial shock, what i felt towards him was more pity, then respect (on truthful route). i feel shuuji should have been one of the most appreciated characters in survive. yet it was the opposite that happened. (between you and me though, knowing there was this discourse with the fact digimon survive is a visual novel, i'm not that surprised it turned out this way...) from my point of view, lopmon evolving into wendimon then killing shuuji symbolizes suicide, the act of taking one's own life. it was the climax of shuuji's mental breakdown, leading him to basically self-destruct, causing damage to everyone around him and ultimately himself. lopmon evolved, just like he hoped. but failed to do it like other kemonogami partners (maintaining control of themselves and fending off enemies). the next and final outcome was death, through his own partner actually eating him alive too. it reminds me how when someone thought they have prepared well for something important yet it failed spectacularly, the devastation and frustration would eat them in the same way from inside. and they probably would for one second think, "i'm better off dead". the more i pondered about it, the more it hit home, so of course, the last thing i could do is hate him, when his struggles sound similar to my own - having to rely on consistent achievements to prove your value, to feel you are worth living and not a waste of resources. the part where shuuji went all abusive on lopmon felt like the equivalent of pushing yourself to the extreme to reach your goal, to the point of neglecting your own needs. it's like a student so absorbed in their study, sacrificing food and sleep, until their body eventually snaps and shuts down for good (...this in fact happened to one of the students at my previous workplace. she was in her last year of high school. life was just about to truly start for her when her classmate informed us of her sudden death). even in truthful route where shuuji and lopmon survive that point, things aren't immediately nice and easy for him. you can see that he still has self-doubts, and what i think is impostor's syndrome. he could be making a great contribution to the team and still put himself down for having done "nothing". i have found it interesting that artists and writers tend to be especially fond of shuuji. so perhaps it's not just the matter of one's upbringing - whether you were raised in a harsh, competitive environment and/or with family with (unreasonably) high standards so you can relate more easily to him - but also whether one can see just what every struggle shuuji and lopmon went through symbolizes shuuji's mental state. out of all survive characters, i think shuuji and lopmon pulled off this thing called "surviving" the hardest, no joke. which is why i almost always gravitate to drawing them happy because that's what they deserve :') after all this, what i also would like to say is, it's okay if a character makes you uncomfortable. it's okay if you hate a character. but never, ever bring down the character to people who like them or even consider them their favorite or comfort character. if you must, do it in your own space and only with like-minded people.
