#idk man I'm still trying to understand the fact that people don't experience digimon the same way i do

I wonder how people feel about eiji

Like, the guy did essentially use 2 teenagers (i don't think we're ever told how old sara is, but she might be around takumi's age. Maybe??? "Air of maturity" does not do much except make eiji's case slightly worse imo) as lapdogs getting parts of his plan to essentially almost end the world just to get information on his mother is concerning

He's a grad student, which kinda puts him around late 20s, but definitely not 20 like keito

It feels like theres this parallel between him and chihiro in the way they treat the tamers as adults older than them, at least to me

Eiji, when we first met him, had this same air of maturity as chihiro, although, not as much as chihiro at the same time, due to him a waiter or something like that. He works under her, but not along side her (at least, from what i can remember before i actively try to reread arc 2 again)

But then after takumi spills the beans, he suddenly appeares more insane about his goals. Way less mature. I mean, you would be mature to not take advantage of young adults (although, both times he managed to get them to work for him, it was accidental. He didn't plan for those incidents to happen, but he took free labor ig. The children yearn for the keeping of their digimon partners). One would be more mature than to take advantage of people in general

Maybe the whole thing with his mom disappearing in front of him after all those years truely affected him so deeply he couldn't adjust to people normal.

Hes just interesting to me in the same way takano(higurashi), sunday(honkai star rail), and almalthus(xenoblade 2) are
