{D I G I M O N} ~ K I Z U N A x + T H E . B E G I N N I N G + S T E V E {J e w i s h A m e r i c a n C h o s e n} x K O U S H I R O {KouSteve} / {SteveKou} / {KouSteveKou}
Edit by @izzyizumi / koushirouizumi
{DO NOT R E P O S T} {DO NOT R E P R O D U C E My E d i t s Under ANY CIRCUMSTANCES}
For A u t i s m Aware-ness Month {Apr} {A u t i s t i c!Koushiro H e a d-canon} + J e w i s h A m e r i c a n H e r i t a g e Month {May}
-A.U. where Koushiro and Steve have notably more {visible to Viewer} one-on-one interaction between "Our War Game" (and most {eventual} Inter-national Chosen discovering the Network and Koushiro's involvements in helping to observe it + keep the Inter-national Chosen connected) and "The Beginning";
-In "The Beginning", as the U.S. Chosen are gathered, while it's not outright stated, it's not unreasonable to assume they were keeping an eye on Network updates made by Miyako earlier on to the Network, also often related via Koushiro, {+related by 02 Chosen}. (The pattern likely goes Koushiro -> Miyako + 02 Chosen {+Iori}; then, 02 Chosen -> back to Koushiro when involving 02 team's extended efforts, who helps analyze any info they send, then shares it + any theorizing to the Network)
-In this A.U., Steve, who as a Jew doesn't particularly 'enjoy' being kept in the 'dark' about Whats Happening to the Self when it's impacting Steve's {r e l i g i o u s} life, ends up reaching out to Koushiro earlier on to try and get to know the Chosen in Odaiba better, and also show solidarity with Koushiro's group. In the end, it's likely because of Koushiro's extended earlier efforts, as well as getting to know the U.S. Chosen better in Steve's own time, that Steve succeeds in remaining semi-active as a main member of the U . S. Chosen, and semi-active in acting as support that can easily be called upon, like most Inter-national Chosen.
-Koushiro and Steve in this A.U. share a friendship and communication style that TRANSCENDS what most may think of as "friendship" or "good" styles of ""communication"" - both know (Steve especially also knowing thanks to own culture) that no matter how far apart they are, they can always rely on each other to be there when needed (or wanted), even if it's difficult to "physically" meet up in off-line life.
-As stated in this scene, Steve wasn't necessarily first 'Chosen' in '91, or at least not 'exactly' in the same timeframe as Michael. (I also head-canon Steve being some months older than Michael, who I consider to be around the same age/J.P.N school year as Koushiro and Mimi, so Steve would possibly be on the older end of year, for the most part, if not born the same year/timeframe as Taichi.)

(Please never go to "DigiTwit" {Digi-side of Twitter}) {Unless you know how to immensely Curate your Feed TM}
(or the main tags / not-ship tags)
You'll save yourself a LOT of grief and IMMENSE headaches
Trust me
-Someone who has been frustrated over this ever since Tri started, and also since Kizuna started, & also since DigiAdv 2020 started,,,,, {Isn't it weird how I never saw this at this level on L.J for multiple years pre-Saikai release???} (The worst I remembered before was from mid-F.F.N days and even Then!)
Thankfully I have a bunch of cool & AWESOME mutuals here who Are Not About That Kind Of Thing, Ever and can I just say all of you who don't partake in that / come onto TAICHI FANS' posts with blatant hate / contempt / bad-faith Takes on Post-02!Taichi or Taichi's ships are amazing???? Thank you (Eternally) {/Genuine}
{& If I never have to block a clearly anti-Taichi, or otherwise anti-Taichi [insert my Taichi ships here] Stan for the rest of my life I could finally rest}
(Don't ask me why they come onto the blog that constantly spams Taichi and KouTai O.T.P + A.M.V.s into my void 24/7 w username 'izzyizumi')
But yeah this was a huge reason why my P.S.A re-blogs started and why I pulled out from making DigiAdvs news updates posts (I was trying to actually spread some Positivity / contribute back then, which is really difficult for me under normal circumstances because outside of Yelling In My Tags, I'm usually actually pretty socially awkward / reclusive...) and the like (some of you may remember I did that around pre-Kizuna dropping, and also when 2020 was starting) because I'd get these kind of Stans lurking on my not-Taichi or Koushiro (at all) posts for whoever their {~Fav~/equally not canon ~O.T.P~} was and I HATED IT.
Some of them are STILL AT IT on DigiTwit weekly after new eps drop (sometimes they jump around socials too, and I'm on other places too... hell some of those names I remembered from L.J days when I was Younger so this pattern seems constant for them) ;; and if they happen to see this post, I just hope they know I was never amused & I'm never going to support their rhetorics. The same person who I mentioned Blocking earlier was also a part of that seeming "group". (But apparently there's also multiple pockets of anti-Taichi Stans???!)
My queue's cleared out a lot since and my blog may finally return to its pre-Bokura no Mirai end state by the time of "The Beginning" release, (though also a lot of my ship tags died out since again...) but I became a lot more hyper-aware of Issues as a result of all that and yeah sometimes I'll still re-blog a post if I feel it genuinely explains an actual concept I'd like to explain well (especially informative posts about Disability and Autism because, like, I'm Autistic, I don't know how many more times I have to ""~confirm~"" that with people before they actually believe me after these 5~8~ straight years of me talking about Being Autistic TM because it's... my blog and my LIFE????)
So yes if you do decide to go onto DigiTwit please prepare to possibly be Blocking multiple amounts of people. Unfortunately
#izzyizumi replies#izzyizumi no rb#izzyizumi no rb posts#izzyizumi commentary#taichi commentary#(Its almost relieving to actually get this expressed finally because this has been genuinely bothering me and stressing me out)#(for SO LONG)#(I know those people will never see it in the way I do and never apologize for their actions)#(Including when they all jumped onto my posts of their ship to 'Like' it after I expressedly asked them in my banners NOT TO)#(I DIDNT EVEN WANT TO MAKE THOSE)#(I HAD TO BECAUSE OF THIS)#(But thankfully reblog controls function is helping me get my blog back under some actual control)#(And less likely to Break Containment TM in some cases like the news updates and linking)#(If people know what I'm talking about)#(I hope they also know I check my activity feeds where I can as long as it's not half exploding with a post)#(So Yes I See when they jump on my posts like that)#(And I hope if their own mutuals notice them doing it that they tell them to stop and back off)#(I've not Blocked some of their mutuals fully yet but I'm still so stressed any of this happened to begin with)#(I have an appointment today and its the second major one Ive had since COVID started around early 2k20)#(Its only a general checkup appointment but I'd be amazed if it actually found something after all this)#(And I have to wonder how badly my levels were affected because I've been having more Issues occuring lately DUE to said Stress)#(Then again I don't know if any of that affects Hyperthyroidism much or if I even changed levels AGAIN yet but we'll see!!1!)#(That already happened once around 2k17 and thats when I somehow swung from Hyper- to Hypothyroidism I was off by a SMIDGE)#(I also just realized I could mark this post no rbs but yeah wow HEY I can actually reply somewhat again on my own blog now!!1!)#(ALSO to people who rb my Taichi positive posts and works without doing that kind of thing let me say again THANK YOU)#(It genuinely means a lot and it's what kept me churning out more works for Taichi + KouTai into My Void after this started happening)#(EDITS to fix a typo and yes I'll try my best with that appointment but i depends if they can find anything!)#(I'm also really nervous about said appointment still I've legit Quarantined myself in home ever since Covid Started)

Taichi Yagami & Koushiro{u} Izumi ~ featuring rp by @izzyizumi as Koushiro{u} + my now-ancient r.p. from 2012 era {I was playing Koushiro from original J.P.N version canon; Clearly the Tai{chi}-mun was using U.S. dub inspirations, but I was fine with that!}
R.P. for Koushiro by @izzyizumi / @koushirouizumi {Do Not Repost or Reproduce without my Permission} {Do Not Remove Caption} (Please Ask to Reference)
Original commentary under the ‘read more’!
The style is one in which starters are the characters talking to their "mun" or players, which is common when "voice-testing" a character to possibly app {apply} into a future {typically pan-fandom, or cross-canon across multiple fan-bases} DWrp {Dreamwidth.org} rp game. Games usually have their own settings, styles and rules and you should carefully consider them before applying to any. (I eventually ended up applying for Koushiro at a DigiAdv{s}-centric game that ended up eventually dying...)
I whited out a few parts to give the former Tai-mun a bit of privacy, but to my knowledge I haven't seen them as active since. Hopefully they won't mind me posting just one old thread between us, because it was really really fun to try back then! Even playing Koushiro was still really fun, despite it being for a very short timeframe of a couple years + even if I never found an active Taichi player {+in a close in age range} to me since.
This was BEFORE Tri had fully aired or before Kokuhaku was even announced, so Koushiro has a small mix of icons I'm using, but sometimes I switch between "canon-points" of early Adventure!Koushiro or late, OWG era or post-02 but pre-epilogue!Koushiro. Tri!Koushiro wasn't even animated more animatedly yet (and much later had very limited appearance in Saikai, etc.), so I was mainly relying on my head-canons for a Koushiro that appears between 2002 and the epilogue, but I often imagined Koushiro of those ages still sticking very close to both 02 and Tri looks. {I did like Tri giving Koushiro back slightly spikier hair, because that was how I imagined Koushiro during in-between years too.} Muns could later go back and update some icons, so some default icons may later change as well. {That's how a Tri!Taichi icon shows here even though it's 2k12}
Also, its very fun because you can personalize your responses even using things like subject headers way better than on this kind of site, and sometimes muns leave you really fun and kind messages that make you want to cry so you try to show them appreciation in turn!!!

KoushirouIzumi/IzzyIzumi's Missing AMVs
(This list may be updated as I go)
Missing A.M.V.s from: Digimon Frontier; Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Monsters.
Digimon Frontier - Warriors (Original version) {Yuuichi Ikusawa} - Eps 1-5; plus ending moments from 50, by end Evolution scenes Track: "Warriors" from Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Monsters {OP 4} * This A.M.V. has been mostly re-made by me since, but, the original version might still be floating around; if so, I'd REALLY appreciate having it back! Digimon Frontier - Chie to Yuuki da! {Wisdom and Courage!} - Takuya focus from Ep07, possibly OP + End + Evolution moments Track: "Chie to Yuuki da!! Medarot" from Medabots {Takeuchi Junko} Digimon Frontier - Salamander - Takuya focus from Eps 01~22, Vritramon likely showed in chorus Track: "Salamander", Takuya's Character song {Takeuchi Junko} Digimon Frontier - Go Ahead! - Takuya focus from ??? (Likely also eps before Ep22) Track: "Go Ahead", from Beyblade G-Revolution {Motoko Kumai}
Digimon Frontier - FIRE!! - All Frontier boys, likely including Kouichi by this point Track: "FIRE!!!" Memorial version sung by Frontier boys Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Monsters - Look-A-Like ("Look Alike") - various Yugioh D.M. scenes throughout, ending on Doma arc start eps It should not contain ending eps nor scenes from final arc. Track: "Look-A-Like" {Sonic O.V.A}
Any A.M.V.s may have a credit of "Hikari M." left in somewhere. - Some may not, it depends on when I began including the insert. - However, even my earliest clip-show A.M.V.s using only images included this insert, so it might still be in fully finished ones. The last A.M.V. was definitely finished, so it might include insert.

“Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna is OBVIOUSLY trying to retcon the 02 epilogue out of existence !!!1!”
{Warning: Pre Kizuna release venting under ‘read more’}
Taichi Yagami = begins studying hard after Tri events [ Tri part 6 ]
Yamato Ishida = “ Then maybe [space] ” [ Tri part 6 ]
Tri DIRECTORS in various interviews during Tri’s run: “ We’re trying to [connect this series] to [the 02 epilogue] ” - basically
Tumblr media
Sora Takenouchi = still in ikebana (however was also seen seemingly interested in kimono/fashion in general in Tri [Ketsui] + wearing a kimono here, wore various kimono in Tri merch) [ + even her Kizuna casual outfit is very fashionable-inspired seeming ]
Tumblr media
Jou Kido = medical / doctor ( still, obviously )
Tumblr media
Koushiro Izumi = basically has his own company; on a career path where he can eventually/EASILY become a researcher + work with Sora’s dad and Jou’s bro still
+ THREE INTERNATIONAL CHOSEN ARE SEEN WITH DIGIMON
Daisuke Motomiya = his Kizuna profile is his chef outfit (ramen chef)
Tumblr media
The girl on the bottom left is holding a YukimiBotamon =
“ EVERYONE ” GETS A DIGIMON = 02 EPILOGUE
+
Digimon Adventure/02 Co-creator / Producer, Hiromi Seki confirmed Sorato back in the early 2000s (+disproved Takari) guess who’s also working on Kizuna as a Supervisor NOW

Listen, I’ve tried to be patient.
Please read my FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) here before following me or interacting with my posts.
PLEASE DO NOT REPOST MY GIFS WITHOUT ASKING ME FIRST. This includes if you generate new posts with them while adding them via tumblr’s gifs-inserting feature. Even if you’re reposting them positively, please understand it took me a lot of time and effort to make these gifs. If you have done this without realizing this is my rule I’d really appreciate (it’d make me really happy) if you could delete such posts on your own without forcing me to ask you first.
I am always glad to see more interest in things I post positive contents for.
But I do not very much like it when people ignore my blog rules, my banners on my posts, or the like.
My posts, contents, gifs, etc. are NOT meant for spreading hate for the canon, other ships/ship fanbases, or the like.

I have an idea of how one could update Koushiro(u) Izzy Izumi’s backstory for more modern audiences while also still keeping the fact that he’s “adopted” and
also possibly giving some representation to some other current social issues that could relate to his backstory
... but it might be too far a reach of an idea so. So.
also Toei would never in a MILLION YEARS consider this kind of idea so
... I kind of wanna hope they would SOMEDAY though

on Kizuna, tri, and the timeline.
Tumblr media
Q: –Please tell us what points you focused on during production for this movie. A: {Kinoshita}: Digimon Adventure LAST EVOLUTION Kizuna is a movie with the primary goal of bringing joy to those who have walked alongside Digimon, and being “fascinating” to those who are meeting Digimon for the first time. We’ve hidden things that those who are coming into Digimon for the first time might find fun, and I would like the series to expand and continue. For instance, we would like it if, five years from now, fans and their children could watch Digimon together. Thus, we thought about what we should do in order to achieve that purpose.
So, we thought about updating it in the sense of “a modern-anime should be like this!”, and also about how we needed to destroy established conventions of “Digimon should be like this.” By this, I don’t mean that we should disrespect our fans who are so important to us, but rather, as the creators, subvert their ideas of “this is how it should be.” It was along the line of thought that if we make the kind of story that everyone would already be expecting, we won’t be able to bring joy to anyone.
Of course, for the fans, we feel that their feelings for the past series, from Digimon Adventure and Digimon Adventure 02 and beyond, must be very precious to them.
So, adding on tri., we thought about taking the prior series, setting the world of 25 years later shown in the epilogue of 02 as the end goal, and decided to tell a connecting story of “Taichi and his friends in 2010” that hadn’t been depicted yet.
Tumblr media
[Pictured: the younger Meiko Mochizuki is seen by Taichi & Yamato, floating together with Meicoomon in the realm the captured Chosen are held in. When spotted, Yamato Ishida exclaimed “Mochizuki!” in surprise {throughout Tri, he calls Meiko only by her last name}. The background depicted {the house behind Meiko, encased in ice} is of Meiko’s Japanese-style home located in Tottori prefecture, where she was raised / comes from.] [The one who captured the Chosen explains the scenes depicted in the scenery are some of the “happiest” “memories” of the captured Chosen.] {gifs by @izzyizumi, DO NOT REPOST}:
Tumblr media
[“Bokura no Mirai” / “Our Future”, (Tri Movie 6): Meiko, her home behind her, teaches Meicoomon how to say “Dan-Dan” {“Thank You”} in the local Tottori dialect.] [gifs by @izzyizumi, DO NOT REPOST]
I believe Digimon to be a wonderful series of media, and this movie is made as a declaration of our need to take on a challenge and “transform” it so that
it can spread wider than ever.
This is the end of Taichi and his friends’ time as protagonists of the story, but their lives will continue on from here, and that world of 25 years later is still waiting ahead of them. As they continue to live, there will be bigger and smaller incidents that come forth, and facing that world of 25 years later does not mean that things will always go well.
Tumblr media
This is not a movie meant to change the world’s timeline, but rather made to be a connecting story that happened within those 25 years, and we consider it to be a story
that expands the world of Digimon.
- excerpt from interview with Last Evolution producer with Yousuke Kinoshita, translated with credit and thanks to The DigiLab Blog
Yousuke Kinoshita was also one of the producers on Tri’s earlier movie “Kyousei” / “Coexistence”, Tri Movie #5. He then went on to become the main Producer of Kizuna.
“THIS IS NOT A MOVIE MEANT TO CHANGE THE WORLDS’ TIMELINE.”
They specifically add/mention “tri.” in regards to that that as well. (adding on “tri.”...)
Original Poster’s [mine]’s commentary:
This interview was published on July 30, 2021, and ever since then, I’ve continued to see rapid misinformation spread on Kizuna and Toei’s production of it/the current series/numerous fans who personally disliked Tri attempting to claim Kizuna as "wanting to ignore/leave out tri” and bold claims that
“the original Adventure[s] series is NEVER going to continue after Kizuna”. “Toei obviously no longer want to continue Adventure[s] after Kizuna, so Adventures fans need to ‘move on’ already.”
... Despite literally everything stated in these particular interviews.
I wish people in this fandom who seriously want to consider the series’ canon would take the time to actually THOROUGHLY read all the producers’ interviews that have been translated thus far before they make such BOLD commentaries.
And, here are some further interview notes.
–Are there any particular points where you’d like people to pay attention to when rewatching? Yamatoya: The truth is, I’ve thought about what I think would happen in the story after this, and put in a lot of hints about it. As we’ve promised, this is a story that connects to the epilogue of 02, but even though we won’t be depicting what happens after the movie for the time being, Taichi and the others are going to be striving towards that ending. They’re definitely not going to give up, and I believe

they will definitely find a way to get their partners back.

So I hope you will see it in that way. Also, for a movie of this scale, word of mouth is everything.
If you saw this movie and thought it was good, please tell your friends about your thoughts and be sure to spread the word. [x]
- Digimon Adventure LAST EVOLUTION Kizuna movie pamphlet interviews - Scriptwriter Akatsuki Yamatoya [with translation credit to DigiLab Blog]
from the post-02 Drama CD, “Original Story: Spring 2003″ with story written by Hiroyuki Kakudou, a Director/Main writer of Adventure+02: [Translation credit to Onkei/website Digital Scratch]:
Afterwards, the world met with even greater trouble. These children, and the others who were chosen in 1999, were shown to be doing very well even 25 years later, but that doesn’t mean that they had lived their days in peace all that time. Even in 02’s final episode, it was stated that “The road each had taken to get there had not been an easy one.”
The {*Digimon informative} video that Hikari had begun to make {*in this drama CD track} grew to be surprisingly useful, while the memorandum {*book} Takeru had started writing was delayed in publishing until he was able to calmly and objectively describe the situations.
Tumblr media
[“Bokura no Mirai” / “Our Future”, (Tri Movie 6): Takeru writes a letter to Meiko post-the adventures of Tri, which take place from the start of the Japanese school year {beginning April 2005} to the end of December 24, 2005, as seen in the image above: 2005/12/24 is seen on the letter that Takeru writes.] [gifs by @izzyizumi, DO NOT REPOST] {Tri would come after this drama CD mentioned, but there were some indications/hintings included at Takeru’s future writing career: for example, Takeru maintains a blog where he informs the International Chosen Children of events happening at the time, such as when he warned them about Kuwagamon appearing in the 1st movie.] (Also, at the start of various movies post-Adventures, a mysterious “typing”-like effect is used to summarize the events so far / hint at things to come. This is a clear callback to Takeru’s writings / him being the “narrator” of Adventure & 02.)
Tumblr media
[Typing-like effect at start of 2nd Tri movie.]
Tumblr media Tumblr media
[The exact same typing-like effect intentionally occurs within Kizuna’s start, complete with pausing and backspacing / replacing of words/text, meant to reflect the title “Digimon Adventure” within the text.]
Nevertheless, these children were able to survive, without being trampled by defeat… Never forgetting their adventure and the things they had gained from their Digimon.
Tumblr media
Their courage and friendship. Their purity and love. Their knowledge and sincerity. Their hope. Their kindness. And all of their light.
The tale of these 12 children, which extended from 1999 to 2002 is now brought to an end*. {*during the timeframe of the drama CD’s production} But even in 2003, and the years after that, they continue to live.
[recall, from the Kizuna interview above: “As they continue to live, there will be bigger and smaller incidents that come forth, and facing that world of 25 years later does not mean that things will always go well.”
“Please remember that sometimes, that is simply enough.”

IzzyIzumi / KoushirouIzumi’s Digimon Adventure AMVs Index
AMVs marked with an [ * ] after the title were OLD AMVs made long ago sometime around circa 2006-ish Digimon fandom era when I was young. I did my best with these AMVs even way back then but YEAH. ALL AMVs featured here may be subject to improvements / fixes down the road. CHARACTER SONG SERIES AMVs:
Yuuki wo Tsubasa ni Shite [ I’ll Turn My Courage Into Wings ] [*] ~ Taichi Yagami’s Adventure Character Song [ featuring bonus Taishiro OTP + etc. Taichi side ships/friendships ] Walk on the Edge [*] ~ Yamato Ishida’s Adventure Character Song [ featuring bonus Yamato/Jou + etc. Yamato side ships/friendships ] Ashita wa Motto [ Tomorrow I’ll Be ]: ~ Sora Takenouchi’s Adventure Character Song [ featuring bonus Yamato/Sora + etc. Sora side ships/friendships ] ( * note - I’m planning on doing more character song AMVs eventually ! ) [ however, this may also take me an eternity ]
TAICHI x KOUSHIRO SHIP DEDICATED AMVs: ( * note: may be incredibly silly / self-indulgent . YOU HAVE BEEN informed ) One DigiWeek with Taichi & Koushiro [*] ~ aka Bare-naked Ladies feat. “Digimon: The Movie” Beautiful Disaster ~ Kelly Clarkson In the Rain (Piano Cover) ~ Miraculous Ladybug Miraculous Ladybug AU ! Taishiro [ “lyrics” here ] ~ Miraculous Ladybug ~ basically it’s a not-exact-parody of pre-Miraculous Ladybug TOEI PV ~ slight Tri + Kizuna previews scenes are here, near ending TAISHIRO “ REPEATVERSE ” AMV SERIES: ( * with inspiration from “ Kagerou Project ”’s songs, but NOT [ COMPLETELY, OK ] A DIRECT PARODY ):
[ * bonus side ships / friendships / polyships featuring the Adventure kids may also apply depending on the AMV ! ( see descriptions ) ]
Kagerou Daze / (aka) Kagerou Days [ Heat-Haze Daze ] ~ recommended as a starting point for understanding the timeline ! ~ mainly Taishiro during Adventure era-gone-VERY-VERY-WRONG Kagerou Daze AMV with replaced music edits: - Additional Memory [ a darker emotional song yet with a strong resolve ] - Imaginary Reload [ the same as above applies to this one ] - Rolling Boy [non-Kagepro Vocaloid song; “Rolling Girl”] mini / short edits: - Days ~ mainly Koushiro + Taishiro
Children Record ~ recommended as a starting point + if you want one more upbeat ! ~ features Koushiro + Taishiro + an Adventure Chosen ensemble
RED ~ recommended as a dramatic but cool song ! ~ mainly Taishiro with bonus Our War Game + 02 eras
Lost Time Memory ~ recommended as another dramatic, yet action-oriented song ! ~ mainly Taishiro during Tri era
Yuukei Yesterday [ “ Yesterday Evening ” ] ~ recommended as a somewhat more upbeat, sweet, funny “ LOVE ??? ” song ! ~ mainly Taishiro during Adventure + Our War Game eras
Summertime Record ~ recommended if you want something more emotional with nostalgia tinge ! ~ note: it is also more like an ending theme / “ending” of sorts ~ mainly Koushiro + Taishiro + Adventure Chosen during all + Tri eras
Shounen Brave [ “ Boy Brave ” / “ Brave Boy ” ] ~ recommended if you want something with an optimistic ending ! ~ mainly JOU + Jou / Mimi focus, with the bonus background sideships ~ this one is meant to portray more of Jou’s role during the ficverse ! ~ bonus Yamato x Jou implied sideship can be read in, as well
Outer Science ~ not recommended if you hate villains being ... villains ~ recommended if you enjoy Adv!villains-being-villains and creepy lore things ! ~ basically the villains vs. Taishiro + Adventure Chosen [ list will be updated as future AMVs are made / added ! ]
LOST AMVs:
aka AMVs I lost when my old computers crashed - TELL ME if you have them ! ( PLEASE tell me if you have seen these I AM DESPERATE )
Digimon Frontier - Warriors [ Yugioh opening song ] [ * ] ~ featured mainly the 1st five Frontier spirit evolutions + battle with Lucemon
Digimon Frontier - Chie to Yuuki da [ Takeuchi Junko song ] [ * ] ~ iirc this one might have had Takuya because of the song but ( ??? )
^ The above may have been found / exchanged via Win MX of old * or my old OC fansite if you ever saw these on an OC fansite ( ?!? )
^ I DO NOT EXPECT TO FIND THESE but if I don’t at least the 1st Frontier one I plan to remake in the future, too !
