>Fans identify with Tai, the insensitive jock who would bully them, and cry about how he was "cucked" out of a girl he never had feelings for
>Fans shit on Matt, a brooding loner like most of them are, for "stealing" a girl who ASKED HIM out (with Tai's help!)
What's up with that?
Fans identify with Tai, the insensitive jock who would bully them...
They'd probably change their mind if they realized Tai got with his imouto canonically.
user, Matt won the official popularity poll. Why do you think people hates him?
Off course I didn't like him because I found him annoying and whiny unlike Tai who was more competent. But again that's just my opinion.
Did that happen in tri or what?
t. Only watched digimon as a kid.
Fuck Sora and fuck Yamato
Yea Forums should identify with Izzy or Jou. Tai and Matt are too chad.
I identity as shota TK
The entire cast of Digimon were shocked that Matt ended up with Sora because they assumed she was going to end up with Tai.
One of the 02 writers wanted to subvert the main guy gets with main girl ending.
I liked Matt more
Because Yamato is canonically attractive, thus ruining the ability of fans to self-insert as him.
Tai is attractive too
Moreso in my opinion
Taito is best ship.
Shipping aside, it was unironically the most interesting relationship. Despite (or because of?) the head-butting, it often felt like the two had some sort of unspoken thing and “got” each other on a rather fundamental level.
I identify as Wormmon but without a Ken
Based Matt was one of us
Taito is just teenage drama. Taishiro is the true homolust for cultured gentlemen.
Personally I was always a big fan of the idea of a Taichi-Yamato-Koushiro Freudian trio dynamic, and think it was something of a missed opportunity for the series.
Heck, I once sketched out a fanfic concept of an alt-02 story that culminated in a new vs old gen conflict arc, where it was Taichi-Yamato-Koushiro(+Takeru) vs Daisuke-Miyako-Iori(+Ken+Hikari) battling over two competing visions on how to save the Digital World.
Well that's not that far from how the team would operate in Adventure. Taichi would ask Koushiro for advise, with Kosuhiro's input Taichi would make a decision which Yamato would then criticize or point out the flaws and when things got too heated Sora would try to mediate, usually without much sucess.
The rest of the kids were almost "the crew" and followed them bar their focus episodes.
>Yamato betrayed me over a talking tree
I want to say that Joe played an important role, but I can't quite describe it.
Mimi, bless her heart, was hardly ever any use outside of the ShougunGeckomon incident that she caused, and bringing the Cavalry against Piedmon which was fucking awesome.
Jou was some sort of force that tried to maintain things as normal as possible even if that was dumb and the Digital World proved him wrong over and over.
No gay here, just bros.
Seeing as we're all self-hating, it makes sense that we all hate based Matt (who also hates himself) for being one of us
They probably got triggered because they got NTR'd and it hit too close to home.
