Another awesome analysis vid! Takeru (T.K.) was such a great character. To be honest, I kind of wish he was the lead of Digimon Adventure 02. I like Davis (he's very funny), but I feel like T.K. would fit more as the leader! Out of everyone in the 02 group, he had the most experience (technically Kari knew about Digimon before him thanks to the Digimon Adventure OVA but still). Listened to this while doing lame schoolwork and it helped! Thanks!

I can admit I didn't think much of T.K. He seemed like a kind of the smallest is really the strongest trope but I really like this take on him.

When the world needed reaper the most. He REAPPEARED!!!🙌

More digi? 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

izumi and Rin deserves to live not sakura

she will always be annoying

This is a good video, but I think your videos will be even better if you worked on your diction and making yourself easier to understand

Sakura is a example of bad useless weak famle character replce her with a medical ninja and the story won't change much

Sakura is a victim of failure to reach her potential

She should NEVER have been a ninja. She was willing to and offering to leave the village and to join a a psychotic traitorous terrorist just to be without someone who hated her

So me my problem is everything after sasori. Her finally getting a win is a nice payoff to part 1 and a START to an actual story for her in part 2 but they don't do much with her afterwards and she ultimately ends up in the exact same position she was in literally everytime sasuke and naruto almost kill eachother, unable to even get involved. I can see someone saying she's overhated but the pivot to saying she's a good character is just wrong.

She was annoying, but I had hope for her in part 1. Then, Shippuden came along and I was elated to see her growth, and tickled pink when she was awesome during the Rescue Gaara arc. I was so frustrated when her progress went BACKWARDS during the Tenchi Bridge incident, and I hadn't cared for her since. Her outright trying to romantically manipulate Naruto later on was the point of no return.

I personally really love Sakura because she is such a flawed character. She has a hell of a lot more depth than most of the YA protagonists I was reading back when Twilight and all the dystopian books were popular. Most of them were blank slates to project your own personality on. My biggest issue is that she ended up with Sasuke. By the end of the series, she should’ve had more self-respect than that, especially given how much she’s grown since she was the annoying 12 year old with a massive crush on a boy.

Well, Naruto loved Sakura even with her glaring useless sh*ty character. There's that. Either she has some redeeming traits we can't see or Naruto is just simply a blind simp.

I was team Hinata

Love your A I voice mocking Sakura simps. To be clear I DO enjoy well written characters, male or female. I really wanted more screen time for characters like Anko Miterashi and Yugao or Guren. I do acknowledge that Sakura has a few good things but sadly the bad outweighs the good. And power alone doesn’t make a character good. Marvel took Carol Danvers, a female Avenger with alcohol problem and suddenly gifted her with Superman level power while having Carol be so arrogant. It’s not the strength or the power that determine how well a character is loved , its the heart. That is why Rock Lee and even Tenten are much more loved than Sakura.

Glad i wasnt the only one 😂

wow this is an excellent analysis! I love Digimon and the psychological elements of the writing are really strong, so seeing you give such an insightful analysis is amazing. I especially liked your point about about Matt's upbringing meaning he is subconsciously prepared to lose people in his life and that's perhaps the root of his avoidant personality. This is a REALLY spot on observation, not just in this children's cartoon but also in real life. You've got a knack for this for real

As a child i didn't like Matt as much, because he was always angry. As I got older, i really could relate more and more to him

Immediately subscribed. Thats a really good analysis. You touch on a lot of points I also like to bring up, when talking about how great the writing in digimon is.

I like how Matts main reason for appearing cold or argumentative is because he cares so much!😊

Sora's mistake was not knowing that the time she was thinking about was when Tai was fully only self focused and lucked his way into accidentally passing her the ball. It helps the audience see Tai's actual thought process and how immature he actually is, and in what ways he needs to grow.

Finally, someone being kind to 02. Safe space 😊

Great video!

Thank you for the great video! I remember liking Tai a lot when I watched the series as a young teen, but slowly gravitated towards Matt as I got older. Don’t get me wrong, Tai is still a well written character, but Matt’s development is something I don’t personally see too often in fictional media. He’s the ‘rival’ yeah, but like you said he’s not the one who’s ‘clearly in the wrong’, which is something I really appreciate. Despite being the ‘cool guy’ he cares deeply for the group, though he makes the mistake of letting his emotions get the better of him. He reminds me that I shouldn’t let my emotions take me too far, which is a problem I currently have. He kind of reminds me of Cloud Strife from FF7 now that I think about it! What I always found to be interesting is that Tai has a complete family, while Matt has a somewhat broken one. Tai is supposed to represent the sun (which is about power and courage) and Matt is supposed to represent the moon (which is about care and is constantly changing-like Matt himself). If you say “Yes” or “Day” to Jijimon in Digimon World (PS1), you get Agumon. If you say “No” or “Night”, you get Gabumon. Agumon turns into Greymon in daylight and Gabumon turns into Garurumon at night. I always thought that was really cool and helps to show how Tai and Matt are supposed to ‘mirror’ each other. I was listening to this video while doing psychology homework, and it helped a lot! Thanks!

Hey guys @jennilocke commented in our last analysis on Tai that some versions and translations of the series tend to paint the characters in a different light one the tends to more or less favor one side. And she is 100% correct! This is especially true for Matt and Tai. So apologies if you feel your favorite character was portrayed in a less favorable way. We try to follow the most consistent character traits in the analysis. Hope you enjoy!😁

It’s been so long since I’ve watched digimon. Used to ride for it!

Yeah. If nothing was wrong they could have at least explained why Sakura was acting so weird. I mean she destroyed a whole house. That's kind of a big deal
