[fizzingwizard]

So I’m sure you’re ALL on tenterhooks to find out what I thought of episode 36... the answer is.... LOVED IT!!!! No I really did. If you like Taishiro friendship, this is an essential episode to watch. Doesn’t blow me out of the water, but still just good.

Although Taichi has a big something to do as usual, it’s still very much a Koushirou episode. FREAKING YAY. I have a dozen thoughts about it, and what bugs me the most, of course, is how we needed this episode AGES ago ugh. But we’ve now had two or three episodes in a row that have actually felt like Digimon Adventure, so perhaps all that finger-crossing is working?

They could unravel all that good work in a minute by never addressing it again... or not letting Koushirou show his personality unless it’s his “turn” for an episode from here on... but you know, I will cross that bridge when we come to it.

Pic of the day:

“I don’t like people. But they are occasionally useful.” - 2020 Izumi Koushirou’s life lesson, lmao

*The red strip at the top is about the big earthquake that hit Eastern Japan yesterday. It’s annoying to have it there for the entire episode - usually they only stick around for a couple minutes - but this WAS a large earthquake. It caused many people to lose power. So making sure everyone knows what’s going takes precedence over Sunday morning cartoons. (I’m in Osaka and didn’t even feel it, but my friends in Tokyo prefecture very much did.)

Lots and LOTS of ranting from a rabid Taishiro fan under the cut!

(also I didn’t check for typos so. yeah)

The episode starts right off by assuring us this is a Koushirou episode. We get the trademark Izumi Koushirou floating in the void of space sequence, which is excellent and very encouraging framing.

Koushirou Kenobi: “Use the force, Taichi.”

Taichi: “Use it yourself.”

(the episode in a nutshell)

The initial thing that bugged me - okay, so the kids got separated for the umpteenth time many episodes ago, and since then we’ve stuck to Taichi like barnacles. The only glimpses we’d get of the other kids showed: Yamato running towards something, Koushirou flying towards something while researching the satellite malfunction, Jou in the hot springs, and Mimi at the crystal caves. For Jou and Mimi, I don’t care, because they never tried to move, but Yamato and Koushirou were constantly moving. Yet, in the end, it’s Taichi’s group that catches up with Koushirou, rather than the other way around. It DOES make sense - it seems like Koushirou told them to “meet at the giant gold pillar” because that’s where they needed to be to save the world, so it became the rendezvous point. But it just bugs me because, once again, all the activity is on Taichi’s side. But that’s a minor quibble. The end result is still THIS:

More of the team is together!!! Taichi and Koushirou are together!!! Yaaayy!!!

... the betting pool for how long it will be till the next separation is now open >.>

Poor Komodomon’s long mop dog fur is so dirty. “Fizz his fur always looks like that.” He’s tracking mud everywhere. “Fizz look at his ears his fur is supposed to look that way.” Next episode - everyone gives Komondomon a bath.

So the start of this episode is just a bunch of talking about how dire things are with the satellite situation. I’m not gonna bother translating. Watch the sub when it’s out if you really want to know :P The important thing is, the gold pillar is directly causing the malfunction, no one on Earth can stop the satellite from plummeting to Tokyo, the city is being evacuated, and there are only 20 minutes till impact.

Koushirou has an elaborate plan which Sora adorably sums up as “So, we’re gonna shoot it out of the sky *makes punching motion*”

The crux of Koushirou’s plan hinges on a repeat of how Omegamon saved Tokyo from the missile way back in like, episode 2 or 3. Taichi says, “Yeah, but I barely remember how we did that.” Which is hilarious because I don’t remember either because it was 30 EPISODES AGO. Once again this episode feels like it was meant to happen WAY EARLIER THAN IT DID. It’s just weird to be referencing something that happened 30 episodes ago after everything else that’s happened, AND on top of that, there are many references in this episode and none from later than like, episode 10 or 12. Making this all seem very oddly timed.

I’m not quite sure if, within the story itself, it matters that Taichi “doesn’t remember well.” He also doesn’t remember the Devimon battle where he and Agumon were infected with dark energy. That one makes sense for him not to remember. If that hadn’t happened, I would just take his “I don’t remember how we stopped the missile” to just mean it was so long ago. But together, it’s making me wonder if something else is going on.

Or maybe Taichi’s just been hit on the head one too many times (okay, that seems the most likely of all, haha)

People of Tokyo: Is it Godzilla again? I heard he’s itching to fight King Kong. You know, given how often our city is attacked by kaiju, some might wonder why we haven’t moved away by now. But home is home, ya know?

The group sets up to fly to the peak of the gold pillar. Obviously, without Yamato, there’s no Omegamon. No one points this out, but Koushirou seems very stressed with his plan, and it seems that he contacted Taichi in the first place because he thought “Taichi’s the one who can pull this off.”

After hearing the plan, Taichi shoots him through the heart with another “Koushirou, you’re so awesome!” and YAY I MISSED THIS SO MUCH!!!!!! *sobs*

Then he does his best to reassure Koushirou by remaining positive and determined that they can and will do this no matter how much Koushirou waves. The majority of the episode is them flying up the pillar while being assaulted by enemies trying to stop them, so it’s not like they get to talk about their feelings (lol). But at least we get a bunch of close ups of Koushirou’s and Taichi’s expressions, and that’s how we see this dynamic in play. Yes, Koushirou is the brainy one who made the plan, but he doesn’t have the confidence to take the lead, so he handed the reins to Taichi. As for Taichi - yes he has the confidence, yes he can do it... but he also has absolute faith in Koushirou. So that’s why this episode makes my little Koushirou fanatic heart skip a beat.

First of the enemies is this guy, aptly named BladeKuwagamon.

They’re actually pretty scary! They do real damage. (Blood in Digimon word is glowy unicorn-like stuff haha). Birdramon gets stabbed, but before Sora can get too upset, she just yanks the blade out of her chest...

... and then crushes it into dust with her beak.

Sora: Holy crap, my partner is metal AF.

Forgot to mention earlier but 5 whole minutes of the 20 minute countdown are used up just by digivolving apparently xD Taichi keeps asking Koushirou “how much time is left” and Koushirou’s panic grows more visible with each passing second...

MetaLiffeKuwagemon looks cooler than he is. Supposedly he’s there to bring out the big guns, but to be honest...

... the BladeKuwagamon don’t seem to need the help :P The enemy’s strategy is obvious: isolate each member of the team to prevent anyone from getting to the top. This is why Koushirou’s so stressed: he’s got a plan that is totally reliant on there being a leader strong enough to pull it off AND there being enough backup to protect that leader from the large number of enemies. And Koushirou doesn’t like these odds.

Garudamon gets stabbed AGAIN

Sora: Go on, we’ll be fine.

Taichi: Are you sure??

Garudamon: *DESTROYS EVERYTHING WITH FIRE*

I MEAN HONESTLY! Garudamon is not only my favorite of Piyomon’s evolutions, it’s pretty much my favorite Adventure evolution. Always has been since I was 11 years old. And she (and Sora) NEVER get that credit. Like. Growing up, with US dub Adventure, I interpreted Sora as more of a straight up tomboy than she is in the original. That’s okay, that’s whatever, but what was most important to me was that I saw her as the third “strong” member along with Taichi and Yamato. Those two were clearly in a class above her, but I saw her as being in the same “Taiorato” league. Garudamon seemed to prove that: she was so cool, so powerful, and... yeah, I just always thought she had so much potential to be awesome and never got why it wasn’t used. That’s also why I was disappointed in Tri - like, I liked Soushitsu, but I just wanted more from Sora’s arc. Same thing in Kizuna: I understand Sora’s arc, I don’t hate it or anything - I think it makes sense for her. But since I wanted something different for her all those years ago, it just left me feeling a bit flat.

but enough about other Digimon series :P Garudamon gets to be super cool here and I only hope we get to see more of it in this reboot. I’ll forgive it some of its other mistakes if we do :D

With Takeru/Hikari and Sora isolated by the BladeKuwagamon, it’s up to Taichi and Koushirou alone to race against the clock! Their teeth are clenched, sweat runs in rivulets down their skin, their hearts are pounding in desperation...

Koushirou: Taichi-san! If we don’t get to the top soon it’ll be too late!

Taichi: Just don’t call me late for dinner!

Koushirou: ASDFGHJKL;’ DAD JOKES NOW?? REALLY????????

MetaLiffeKuwagamon makes life that much harder by knocking them against the pillar. However, this is a pillar of data, which enabled the BladeKuwagamon to evolve into MetaLiffeKuwagamon in the first place. Bugs aren’t that bright.

Taichi and MetalGreymon are nearly submerged inside the pillar as a result, and then we get this sequence of red and black. The pillar had been emitting dark lightning, so I started to think... omg... is MetalGreymon gonna get a Dark Evolution???????

.... Nah. That would have made sense, but.... nah :P

Overall I’m glad though, because that would really have turned this into a Taichi episode instead of a Koushirou one.

I’m not personally certain what the point of bringing BlitzGreymon out was. I had figured he would be like, a super fast evolution that would enable them to make it to the top. That would also have turned this into a Taichi episode. But...

... Taichi tells Koushirou that he will have to go divert the satellite because Taichi has to deal with MetaLiffeKuwagamon.

I was both really pleased and really surprised. Because, again, now what’s the point of BlitzGreymon...? Why did we need a new Agumon evolution? There’s no particular reason why they couldn’t have just isolated Taichi with the enemy the same way the others were and had him tell Koushirou to keep going on his own then. They did do that, but first they gave him a new evolution. Why? Just because it’s cool?? I assume that must be the reason but we don’t even see BlitzGreymon fight xD It’s... it’s weird. But whatever.

Taichi: Go, Koushirou!!!!! You can do it!!!!!

Fiz: *dies a thousand brilliant deaths*

So, Koushirou tells Taichi that he can’t do it - he can support Taichi, but he can’t take the lead. Taichi’s just like that’s wack, dude, of course you can do it. What I LOVE about Taichi and Koushirou’s dynamic is just that: Taichi never sees Koushirou as a weakling. The fact that he’s small, or that he’s brains over brawn, or even that he’s kinda antisocial - those are all reasons an energetic, extroverted kid like Taichi might bully, or at least think poorly, of Koushirou.

But Taichi values Koushirou. He knows how hard he works and is impressed both by that hard work and his talent. What’s more, he doesn’t see Koushirou’s brains as his support system. The whole time Koushirou’s thinking he’s there to support Taichi with his plan, Taichi was thinking, “I’m here to support Koushirou’s plan.” That is SO, SO important. And that’s why I LOVE this episode. The one thing the reboot seemed to really understand, that hooked me from the start, was the way it just GOT Taichi and Koushirou. They each support and follow each other, while each feeling like the other is better than them. Ugh I could like, cry over Taishiro now... omg....

Taichi is successful in pushing Koushirou to go on, but of course Koushirou himself is still plagued with doubts. He reflects on how he’s always been fine being alone. He hasn’t particularly wanted friends and didn’t mind not having them, even though adults worried.

(Side note: this is a normal, if kinda rare, personality trait. I have it too. I always score Koushirou on “what Digimon character are you?” tests too lmao. Just like some people feel the need to be surrounded by others at all times, there are those whose social needs are very very low. I’m one of them. There’s nothing wrong with it except that even those people can get lonely and it’s easy to misunderstand them as shy or snobby. So what I love about Koushirou is, yes he learns to value his relationships more, but also learns to value himself. He is Koushirou: a brainy kid who’s happy on his own, but also happy with friends. While some people, like Mimi, struggle with that aspect of his personality, others, like Taichi, just accept it. To me that’s the best life lesson there is: there are always people who can and will be friends with you. Yes, I’ve lost friends because I just wasn’t social enough for them. But I have other friends who I’ve known for literal decades now. And I REALLY love those friends.)

Koushirou feels grateful that he has AlturKabuterimon, and also that he has Taichi. So... here he is, reflecting on the last time he had meaningful interaction with that great friend Taichi... back in episode three. -____________-

Seriously, this would mean a lot more if this dynamic had been built on continually until this episode...

Koushirou then briefly reflects on each of the other Chosen. Notably, every single solo image of them is from an episode that Koushirou either wasn’t in or wasn’t with them at the moment. Then we get this group image. It’s from EPISODE 12. (I’m actually not sure of the episode number but the point is, it’s from A LONG LONG TIME AGO. I think it’s the swamp episode??) That drives me NUTS. We shouldn’t have to reach soooo far back to find meaningful moments!!! Urk.

Koushirou makes it to the peak of the pillar and AlturKabuterimon attacks the satellite to drive it off course. We see the impression of what looks to be HerculesKabuterimon and I really thought we’d get an evolution - it seemed way more appropriate than freaking BlitzGreymon - but nope.

Oh well. Koushirou still saves the day. The people at home get to see the Crest of Knowledge take over their screens, hopefully giving rise to the idea that a nerd superhero is protecting them. Koushirou is the hero we deserve.

The satellite falls into the water. I was like, shouldn’t that cause a tsunami lol?

... be careful what you wish for >_>;

fortunately people were evacuated soooo things will be okay.

He did it!! He’s so happy! AlturKabuterimon’s triumphant holler is adorable.

Taichi and BlitzGreymon fought hard OFF SCREEN!! OFF SCREEN!! HIP HIP HOORAY! And then we get to see him leaning on Sora T_T could this episode give me any more perfect moments?? Looooove it

So yeah, if you can’t tell, I’m thrilled with this episode. There are just a couple things I would have liked to improve: better animation, at least one palpable heart to heart between Taichi and Koushirou, or just a bit more time spent explictly in Koushirou’s head - but honestly we got something that is pretty darn good, especially for this reboot. I hope we do get more like this, both for Koushirou and for the others. I hope the growth here isn’t forgotten moving forward. I really, REALLY want to see more of that “I lead, you support me - you lead, I support you” mutually beneficial relationship that is the foundation of Taishiro <3

So next week! Mimi’s back and the heads are gonna roll!

Lmao!

My theory that she’s finding crystals to make Crests seems unlikely to be the case now that we know the rocks constract the rock Digimon. But... hey, we’ll find out next week.

Also Taichi’s gonna make this face after talking with Mimi bahahahaha. I can’t wait.

Lyrics Preview:

What I thought back on was, again, My family; [“This is YOUR home, so make yourself comfortable, Koushiro!”]

But I WONDER  if   I  have     Become

///  “THEIR CHILD” ///

... NOW.

Please try to  remember  That Word  I  loved;  "HAPPINESS"  is  a   “Curious”  THING...

part of my Taishiro [Taichi x Koushiro] REPEAT?_ ficverse (please note any and all notes/trigger warnings for said ficverse!!) [seriously, please note the warnings, the plot is kinda heavy] (please note any and all warnings for K@gepro’s plot too if you look into that!!) - no, it’s NOT a direct parody (but v[ERY] inspired) (if you can’t tell) - watching it in HIGH(ER) QUALITY at the original Youtube link is encouraged! - to do so, go to the original youtube link, click “HD” button, then “ 1080p ” !

{ Additional note: this post/fanworks series is mainly intended TAICHI x KOUSHIRO [Taishiro], please remember + respect this when interacting please tag ONLY as “Taishiro” for ship and not just “brotp” or the like, thank you! } [ * it is ok to tag as “friendship” along WITH the ship name ! ] { * I don’t mind if others have differing LGBTQIAPN+ headcanons for them, please simply respect mine ! }

- short version of implied story/plot of this series: T I M E L O O P S - Tri ( and as of lately, um, KIZUNA [AUs?] ??? ) is here because … ah… - let’s just say it’s probably AT LEAST ONE part of the “start” of it all ah - KOUSHIRO IZUMI VOICE : ( ‘ W H Y ’ ) - DO THEY MAKE IT TO THE END - @ TAICHI & KOUSHIRO, ARE YOU SURE YOU /WANT/ TO ——-

- TBH HOW MUCH do KOUSHIRO or TAICHI even REALLY REMEMBER - MUCH LESS THE REST OF THEM - who even knows after a certain point anymore - timeloops are fun !! ! ! (this particular AMV also explains SOME of it …) Spoiler warnings for Tri / Kizuna / DigiAdv 2020 - Tri minimal spoilers up through Bokura no Mirai!Koushiro. {Mainly aesthetic-like scenes only, including for Koushiro.} - DigiAdv 2020 spoilers for Eps 1~2 only. (This A.M.V. was made before the later eps aired.) - Tri minimal spoilers up through Bokura no Mirai!Koushiro. - DigiAdv 2020 spoilers for Eps 1~2 only. (This A.M.V. was originally made before the later eps aired.) - There is NO Kizuna in this AMV {As it primarily deals with a during-BNM, pre-Tri end implied timeline.}

NOTE on Lyrics: The lyrics have been lightly modified by myself from the original as the original singer was a girl character, and some minor lyrical contexts were specific to the originating series; so the lyrics have been modified to fit Koushiro slightly better (including Koushiro’s specific canonical ADOPTION backstory.) - Mrs. Izumi’s P.O.V. is also featured by the ends of the 1st verse. (As in Mrs Izumi is “speaking” to Koushiro through these lyrics, up until the P.O.V. switches back to Koushiro’s again; Taichi’s may also feature by some later sections {see video details!} but in reality either one could be singing portions of this song to each other!)

Digimon Adventures ~ Taichi Yagami & Koushiro[u] Izumi {A.M.V. Out-lining/Timeline} for Koushiro x Taichi A.M.V.: Tsuki no Uta [#Tri Spoilers, #Kizuna Spoilers, #Digimon Adventure: Spoilers]… This is the current initial ‘previewed’ look of a mostly-finished A.M.V., but with sections I can easily jump around and edit in if I ever go back to it in the future.

... And this is what a full version/outline of 100~ clips may look like!

With this one, starting from after the big Kizuna moment leading into an OWG clip of Taichi, the editor was starting to bug up and lag, and it was honestly amazing this one didn’t crash for some odd, unknown reason before I could finish & save it (when I’ve had many others crash by 40, even just 17~20 clips on a bad editing day)

So this one managed to work out in the end, but I was concerned I wouldn’t be able to fill in the ending with much, and thus I started using some longer sequences by the end, since using longer ones seems like it’ll crash less than if you use a ton of clips at once. I still managed to convey the feel of what I was going for at least (including within the original psuedo-plans), I think, though also the psuedo-outlines had the ending move a lot faster with many shots (that’s usually my wishful thinking though, so I made do with this instead.)

All clips with a series of squares in the corner has effects (sometimes multiple fade-in to fade-out sequences) on.

Also, sometimes the previews on clips will glitch oddly, and then fun things like this may happen:

^ (BlackAgumon Appeared!)

{It Knows.}

(OK, but most of the time it just glitches the main charas in previews and you can barely see them, which means yeah, kinda hard to see on the timeline.)

This took almost 6~ hours of editing total, spread across two evenings. (I think I finished just under the 6 hour mark on this time, but these ‘totals’ also include a lot of boring loading of files, audio etc. & waiting. So it’s actually a bit less time than even that, but hard for me to keep track of.)

I didn’t even have a full-on psuedo-plan for this one, honestly? (Like, I had an initial overall 'concept’/idea in my mind, including for ending, but I always have trouble when it comes to fitting in the most scenes I’d love to use if possible. I couldn’t even add in 2020!Koushiro’s ep with Gerbemon + Chuumon [/Tyumon] here yet! Maybe in the ‘finished’ version, if I can attempt to go back in, fix those few things & add in subs, sometime hopefully...)

A.M.V.s take a lot of time to make, too! And as much as I’d love to produce them quickly like this, no, I can’t actually manage this kind of attempt every single time without being supremely wiped out mentally afterwards, but this one was a lot of fun to work on too, since it didn’t crash AS much for me this time around...

I’d like to be able to improve my focus to finish them slightly more quickly in time for when character or O.T.P focused events I’m interested in roll around, since it’s way harder to finish a series of A.M.V.s in this quality 7 days in a row, for example when it comes to weekly events, but we’ll see! (Also because I’m typically not the type to {personally} join in events much anymore either... well, I sometimes do try for any Favs though, we’ll see!)

D I G I M O N A D V E N T U R E : x K a g e r o u P r o j e c t ~ K a g e r o u . D a z e {Opening Scene} Parody “A.M.V.”

a.k.a, “Toei, you are literally creating my A.M.Vs and ficverse for me” {was it NECESSARY to depict Koushiro with a sort of MYSTERIOUS FLOATING TM and extreme HYPER-AWARENESS this way??? Toei was it NECESSARY along WITH the background imageries of The City and Digital World magic shenanigans??}

REPEATVERSE/EXTENDED STORY INTRODUCTION: HERE {Ficverse “ROUTE” can be found via my AO3 link HERE!} {Please note any and all warnings for ficverse version! A.M.Vs-verse version is overall Safe for Work in comparison, however please be sure to read all information on A.M.Vs posts too!} (*Note: Extended summary contains some spoilers for the fic-verse ) [However, it also explains more of worldbuilding involved & plot setup!] (*It’s ok to start on/only watch this current edit!) [*You may understand the story/implied timeline of things better if you begin from my “Kagerou Daze” A.M.V, though it’s also not required! “Children Record” is also recommended as a starting point/upbeat song! ] {For lighthearted songs try Otsukimi Recital, or (maybe) Yuukei Yesterday!}

My past A.M.Vs tag: here! My A.M.V with links back to A.M.Vs in this series: here! My most recent A.M.Vs/edits for the series: here, here, and here!

with comparisons to original & my Taishiro A.M.V here!: {along with a split second glimpse of similar framing from the anime} [my A.M.V on bottom; top right original Fan PV; Adv 2020 on right, ending on M e k a k u c i t y A c t o r s anime frame]

{Please be warned if you watch! The top right parodies the original Fanmade PV which does depict a sequence involving blood/blood splatters/psuedodeaths [not-quite-permanent in its canon.]}

Digimon Adventure{s} x Kagerou Project ~ AMV “Shinigami Record” A.M.V Preview {Short Edit} [Music (C) Jin, Singer: I.A. / Vocaloid] Featuring implied DUO/SHIP: Taichi Yagami [“Taichi (Tai) Kamiya” in U.S. Localization] x Koushiro(u) Izumi [“Koushiro (Izzy) Izumi”] [Taishiro(u)] {Links to past A.M.V.s/edits in this series here!}

[Note for this one: Somewhat angst-implied] {But perhaps with a lingering hopeful feeling?} (It’s also still very unfinished for now so you get a minimal ending instead?) [The links below contain inspiration from a fan*-made video + {*It’s fan-made / not official but it pretty much tells the exact actual story} information/lyrics on the full song / originating series, but it’s also not a direct / exact parody (still very inspired)]

Short Version Summary: The timeline of Inquisitive Heartless Koushiro stuck in Vade{r}mon’s dimension; where Koushiro was ‘stuck’ ‘mentally’ for 71 days in novel; known in the Adventure novel as the “Room of the Mysterious Universe”

{Note: In Adventure Episode #24, Koushiro loses Koushiros “Inquisitive Heart”; In the U.S. localization, this became (was localized to) “Curiosity”, however, the Digimon Adventure novel had more context on the state of it being Koushiro’s actual “Inquisitive Heart” that Koushiro had lost.}

Lyrics Preview:

... BUT EVEN N O W ,

I STILL                                        ... LOVE YOU.

I {still} love you = {“Aishiteru”} - implied from Koushiro to Taichi here.

{Do Not Repost or Reproduce without my Permission} {Do Not Remove Caption}

SHORT VERSION SUMMARY #2: - THEY’RE MAYBE STUCK IN A   TIME LOOP … - Do Not let Koushiro Izumi get stuck in a certain Dimension

“ IF SO, I’m NOT INTERESTED anymore , ”

... Should I disappear into this world ALONE ?

{ I DON’T WANT TO                         F O R G I V E  Y O U }

... BUT EVEN N O W ,

 I STILL                                         ... LOVE YOU .

* THIS AMV IS A P R E V I E W. TECHNICALLY, IT IS INCOMPLETE, AMV. MAY CONTAIN GLITCHINGS, ETC. I am aware of glitches / scenes that cut in too quickly and will fix them as I have time in the future.

{ DIGIADVS SPOILERS WARNING: a) some Tri!Taichi and Tri!Koushiro solo shots from: Saikai, Kokuhaku, Kyousei, BOKURA NO MIRAI / OUR FUTURE. b) some PRETTY spoilery scenes regarding what “Gennai” in Tri was doing c) HOWEVER, the ending of BNM past those scenes is not heavily spoiled d) a couple very quick/brief scenes w/Taichi and Koushiro from DigiAdv 2020, mainly 01 ~ 03 * (as well as scenery shots in general)

- TRIGGER WARNINGS for this song: – general mentions of death [/PSUEDO-deaths] + destruction of “ the world ” – general creepiness abound – ( it’s NOT as you think HERE but IT’S STILL A CREEPY SONG … ) – it makes so much more sense if you actually know K@gepros’ canon – which is wayyyyy too HARD to explain here in full – I’m sorry – I don’t think my version is nearly like K@gepros DESPITE this so … .

FULL LYRICS:

[ Verse 1 ]

Out the windows was a huge flock of birds, Congesting to cover up the sky

Swallowing up the crescent moon ,

Headed some unknown direction.

I had A HALF-FINISHED GAME with   NO SAVE ; A scarcely-touched textbook    lay on my desk

AND TO STOP MY BODY FROM     T R E M B L I N G , I promptly PUT ON     MY     H E A D P H O N E S .

[ Interlude Verse ]

Just as I was listening to AN OBSCURE ARTIST , A number they did with AN UNKNOWN TITLE ,

Just as it came to my ears ,     I H E A R D :

" You     WANT TO S U R V I V E     ‘ Y E S ’ ? "

[ CHORUS 1 ]

Waving over the wriggling world, The skyscrapers seemed                    TO TREMBLE THIS VOICE seemed                    UNMISTAKABLE :

IT WAS    MY OWN ,

... WHICH I WAS TIRED OF HEARING .

" If you    CROSS THAT HILL , then in    20 SECONDS , YOU’LL KNOW WHAT I MEAN , for BETTER or WORSE ”

Don't DOUBT , JUST   L I S T E N   CLOSE :

GO     2 0  S E C O N D S                                  A H E A D . . . "

[ Verse 2 ]

The intersection was CROWDED , of course ; Man, woman, CHILD ,     IT DIDN’T MATTER

I WAS BURIED under   PEOPLE YELLING and babies' cries . . .

[ Interlude Verse 1 ]

PEOPLE CRYING ,   a   SOBBING GIRL ,

A   P R I E S T   P R A Y I N G , I    PASSED THEM ALL BY .

One SINGLE PERSON           headed the OTHER WAY ,

Towards what was BEYOND   THAT HILL .

[ Interlude Verse 2 ]

The voice from   THE H E A D P H O N E S   PERSISTED:

" TWELVE minutes left , "    it told me

If EVERYTHING was going to          UP AND VANISH ,

Then I had                         NO OTHER WAY . . .

[ Chorus 2 ]

The chorus of shrieks and screams

Turned to TEARFUL EYES in   TEN SECONDS

I had my DOUBTS , but no matter  WHO DID WHAT ,

There was     NO ENDING     HUMANITY’S SONG .

" RUN , RUN , there's          1 MINUTE LEFT , "

But I couldn't even hear it by then;

THE HILL     which I thought     to cross

Was

RIGHT BEFORE ME .

[ Interlude Verse ]

MY BREATH FAINT ,     I FINALLY     A R R I V E D ,

Before  A WALL  which projected  THE SKY .

Behind it , scientists in white applauded ;

" MAGNIFICENT , " they SAID -----

Doubt

[ FINAL CHORUS ]

FROM THERE , I saw  THE TOWN

Was some kind of     experimental facility;

" NO LONGER NECESSARY , "

A SCIENTIST said, and calmly     tossed a     B O M B

I WAS TOLD I HAD BEEN LIVING

MY WHOLE LIFE IN A LITTLE WORLD IN A BOX

So I COULD ONLY STARE , D U M B F O U N D E D

At the BURNT WRECKAGE that had been THE TOWN .

And from THE HEADPHONES at     MY EAR,

I heard a faint

"     S O R R Y     " . . .

NOTE:

- You can tell exactly where I ran out of ideas (towards the end) OTL - I DO PLAN TO FINISH THIS AMV PROPERLY SOMEDAY - I’M SORRY - THOUGH - OK BUT SERIOUSLY PLS I WANT TO TALK ABOUT TRI & ADVS LORE

SHORT VERSION SUMMARY:

I HAVE THINGS TO SAY, JUST LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE

It was like a {PICTURE-PERFECT} {“WORLD”}, I couldn't help but look at it {ENVIOUSLY}

- “IT’S OK” “IF YOU WANT TO STOP...”

THEN, I MANAGED(?) TO {SPEAK WEIRDLY} THROUGH {MY TEARS}

{FINALLY}, I MADE IT to {THE FUTURE}(?)...

originating series tagline: {the story of MYSELF, ONE that’s rather “DIFFICULT” to TELL.}

[initial fan lyrics by dennoushoujo!] (Full lyrics under ‘read more!’)

NOTE: - this AMV contains minor Tri spoilers through to Soushitsu {LOSS}. (mainly Sora aesthetics and friendship moments) - along with a few tiny action moments from the final movies. (mostly just with the Digimon) i.e. Birdramon {it may look a bit spoilery but hopefully you can overlook that?} - as well as tiny moments of; -- DigiAdv 2020 Ep. 03; (Sora + KouTai relevant moment) -- “To Sora” (including end) pre-Kizuna short story episode; -- Kizuna credits (Sora’s moment ONLY)

*NOTE: in this particular ‘verse I like to headcanon Sora as being on the ASEXUAL and/or AROMANTIC-spectrum [ex. Bi-romantic Ace, or Demi-romantic Bi, etc. etc.] I also like to headcanon Sora as struggling with gender presentation in general. [ex. Non-binary and/or Gender-queer, Gender non conforming...]

- in a last ditch effort to help save the worlds, Koushiro Izumi ...kind of gets stuck in a never-ending TIME LOOP - basically, what if, at any point of the series, the Chosen FAILED?

- Taichi Yagami gets dragged in while trying to save him ... and the rest of the team / their friends {but he’s kind of fixated on Saving Koushiro most importantly} [because if Koushiro is gone they’re kind of screwed] {and, well, they’re kind of getting closer in the meantime} [...or trying to]

- In between the time loop messes with their memories upon each reset - Therefore, EITHER may or may not remember the events of any past timelines while still trying to resolve future loops {Here, however...??}

- In between the Adventures Chosen become rather scattered - all of a sudden both Koushiro and Taichi, may wind up taking very different routes depending on timelines sometimes even ending up completely alone

- But as for the rest...?

- “IT’S OK” “IF YOU WANT TO STOP...”

originating series tagline: {the story of myself, one that’s rather difficult to tell.}

[ initial fan lyrics / another version of a fan translation here ! ]

LYRICS:

[Verse 1]

The voice from the mirror says, "HEY, GOOD MORNING" My facial expression is {awful} as usual

The {same awkward smile}, the {same bedhead} and the {same gestures}

{I'M SICK OF IT ALL...}

{IT SEEMS} {SO} {UNFAIR.}

[Verse 2]

I HAVE THINGS TO SAY, JUST LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE BUT CAN'T PUT {ANY OF THEM} INTO, {WORDS.}

{MUMBLING} with {MY HEAD DOWN} TODAY {AGAIN},

"You CAN'T EVEN SAY {HELLO}"; "{POOR THING.}"

The dogwood {flowers} in the garden {were} so beautiful {I couldn't help} but {look at it} {ENVIOUSLY} {IN CONTRAST} {I'M}, {SUCH A HOPELESS CASE},

{I WISH} I COULD {VANISH}, {JUST LIKE THAT}.

[Chorus 1]

Strangely enough, in this {WORLD} {it's HARD} to do {ORDINARY} things UNABLE to say {ANYTHING} BACK, {FEELING LIKE AN IDIOT} {I'M REDUCED TO TEARS.}

MISUNDERSTANDING AGAIN AND AGAIN, I've become {SICK OF IT}

{LIKE FLOWERS THAT DIE BEFORE BLOSSOMING},

{I CAN'T FIND} ANY {WORDS} FOR {THE FUTURE...}.

With a {WEIRD}, {SCARED}-LOOKING Face

{I always tend to run away.} {No, it's not helping}

{Too shy to do anything but} {SHUT MY MOUTH}

{/I'm totally sick of it all./}

[Verse 3]

There are {PEOPLE} who can {“LAUGH”} and {““TALK””} {AS “BEAUTIFULLY” AS FLOWERS BLOOM}...

Then I HEAR, a {BLAMING VOICE} from the {MIRROR},

{"I'M SORRY." "/I CAN'T/ /DO THAT/."}

[Verse 4]

It was like a {PICTURE-PERFECT} {WORLD}, I couldn't help but look at it {ENVIOUSLY}, Trying to get out of the way, what should I {DO}? {I WANT TO LET IT GO} {I CAN'T LET IT GO} {OH,},

[Chorus 2]

{MY UNCONTROLLABLE SELF}; {IT'S SO MISERABLE} AND {UGLY} {I DON'T WANT ANYONE TO SEE IT}; {SO I'M} {CRYING} {IN THE CORNER} {OF MY ROOM.}

“IT’S OK” “IF YOU WANT TO STOP...” [It's ok NOT to let it go]

I heard {THE VOICE} from {NOWHERE}, that sounded like {MAGIC}, Somehow I'm at a loss for {Words}

{DON'T BE AFRAID} {JUST SAY IT} {WHATEVER YOU WANT TO SAY} {SPEAK IT OUT!} {SPEAK IT OUT!} THEN, {I} MANAGED TO {SPEAK WEIRDLY} THROUGH {MY TEARS} {IT SEEMS SO SILLY.} ...

[Interlude Verse] {after instrumental}

{FINALLY}, I made it to {THE FUTURE} {YES}, it's a {COLORFUL WORLD} HERE {GROWING UP} {GRADUALLY}, {I KEEP CHANGING.}

...With {UNCHANGING BELIEFS}... , {CHERISHED IN MY HEART.}

[Final Chorus]

{STRANGELY ENOUGH} in this {WORLD}, IT'S HARD TO {REMEMBER THINGS}, {THE WORDS} THAT {I DON'T WANT} TO {FORGET}, {I'M GONNA KEEP EXPRESSING THEM} {TRYING TO NEVER LOSE THEM}

{SOME DAY,} IT'D BE NICE {TO JUST SHARE A LAUGH} {WITH SOMEONE IN THIS WORLD}, THINKING LIKE {THAT}, IN THE {FUTURE}, I'll surely find a {REASON}

{FIX THE BEDHEAD}, AND {GO OUT}. TODAY again, after SAYING

"GOOD MORNING"

BACK TO,

                                    {ANOTHER 'FLOWER'},

                         ...{BLOSSOMING} in {THE MIRROR.}
