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!)

What’s the deal with the variations in spellings
for Ko[u]shiro[u]’s [+Jo{u}’s] Japanese names?} [x]
(for conveniences’ sake, I use the US version, “Koushiro”
which has also been used in some official merch/usages on the J.P.N side. (Most obvious example being Tri {Saikai})

bothering me to or demanding I change it, because I won't, thank you)
{As I have made close to 50+ postings (likely now 100+) about Koushiro it would be difficult to go back and edit any particular posting with any particular spelling, and I’m most used to the US version’s way from his full name; “Koushiro ‘Izzy’ Izumi”.}

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.

YOUR MEMORIES WILL VANISH INTO YESTERDAY ! "
So we DASH DOWN THE STREETS ,
No doubt AGAINST YOUR WILL (?) ...
[ INTERLUDE VERSE 2 ]
FEELING BLUE IN THE EVENING ,
As THE SUNLIGHT is LOCKED AWAY ,
IN A MOMENT YOUR FACE LAMENTED ,
AND SOUNDLESS TEARS SPILLED AND F A D E D ...
[ CHORUS 2 ]
THIS TERRIBLY SMALL WORLD
BARES ITS BIG FANGS,
THINKING " I WANTED US TO BE TOGETHER , "
IT WEIGHTS DOWN ON YOUR HEART ...
EVEN IF MY MEAGER WORDS
CAN’T GET THROUGH ANYMORE ,
I WANT TO GIVE YOU STRENGTH !
" - I WANT TO HELP YOU. - PLEASE, GRANT MY { WISH } !! "
[ FINAL CHORUS ]
" I BELIEVE BECAUSE YOU’RE YOU !!! "
SAY IT LOUD AND MEAN IT !!!
" IT’S ABSOLUTELY NOT HOPELESS !!
IF YOU { WISH } FOR IT , YOU’LL MEET AGAIN !! "
TAKING A GREAT BIG BREATH ,
YOU TIMIDLY FACED THE DISTANT M O O N ,
AND SHOUTED , " I’LL GIVE IT A SHOT !!! "
... Did THAT sound kinda " COOL ? " " ... I / GUESS / " !!

SPOILERS / NOTES:
this one is . Overall, Major Spoilers free but TINY scenes for:
( Bokura no Mirai ) an aesthetic shot of Taichi simply just, glaring
- the background scenery kind of spoils a bit but not a Lot -
( Kokuhaku ) ending Taishiro interaction moments
( Kyousei ) not majorly spoilery Taishiro
by campfire with Concerned!Taichi seeing Koushiro's face
( less spoilery Tri things ) just like an aesthetic shot of Taishiro
being Silly { Saikai ; long before any battles }:
( Movie 1 near end ) TAICHI VOICE ' FOOD ' +
( from Movie 1 start ) aesthetic scenes of Tri!Taichi,
at the lake Brooding +
{ early on from intro scenes } Lifting His Head
( Kizuna ) ONE shot of Taichi during a battle moment
but not The Battle Scenes
but it technically is because
all he's doing is reaching out
but you can see a tiny bit of context of
What's Happening to him
( DigiAdv 2020 ) Eps 01~03 scenes &
Ep 14 Sad!Koushiro moments yUP
ok but this one is MOSTLY scenes from pre Tri Advs
+ DigiAdv 2020 /For Once/
{ PROBABLY THE BIGGEST SPOILERY MOMENT }:
( Tri ) Movie 6 / Bokura no Mirai - Taichi;
Not Long Before The Ending except it's
not The Ending Battle Scenes
( more specifically if you've already seen these
in the past AMVs, you know it ) : when he's in . ( scroll for spoiler )

- 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!)
What I THOUGHT BACK ON was , AGAIN ,
MY FAMILY ;
[ “ This is YOUR HOME, so make yourself comfortable, Koushiro ! ” ]
In [ a LITTLE PLACE ] with [red?] [brick?] WALLS ,
He mutters to himself, as if making SECRET PLANS
In the [ PURE BLACK EYES ] BROUGHT HERE
Lies a past he has HIDDEN FROM A D U L T S
With [ embarrassment ? ] F E A R in HIS EYES ,
he [ mutters ] SAYS CRIES " I’M SCARED “
[” I’m JUST A MONSTER ! “]
So I TELL HIM,
” DON’T BE ! ” [” THAT’S NOT TRUE AT ALL !!! “]
” RED is THE COLOR OF A H E R O ,
so there’s NO NEED to be afraid ! “
[ " YELLOW is THE COLOR OF THE SUN’S RAYS,
so YOU’LL DEFINITELY BE OKAY !….. ” ]
... Wondering what he would find fun,
I am ACTING the “ M O T H E R ” a g a i n
“ Hey, LOOK ! ”
[ HE ? ] [ I ?? ? ] wrapped [himself?] [ m y s e l f ] in [RED?] [antics];
[RED?] [YELLOW??] [scarf?] [C A P E?]
“ We’re like SECRET AGENTS ! ”
DYED in [ MADDER RED? ] , we’ll B E G I N ,
even if we’re merely P L A Y I N G H E R O E S
“ As long as we can manage just a little smile… ”
We will BE FAMILY STILL TODAY
I PRAY for HAPPINESS in THE FUTURE AHEAD ,
so HOWEVER SAD it may be…
“ Now keep this A SECRET ! ”
The sun sets with us LAUGHING .
… The SPRING breeze blows, and the now-ADULT world
Is i r r a t i o n a l l y bent, as if CONSPIRED to be .
The thick and faded tears of [loved ones?] [ H I M ]
Go UNNOTICED BY ALL, turning B L A C K
Things had GONE CRAZY, but by the time I NOTICED,
I could NOT TELL A N Y O N E
“ NO , N O , I DON’T WANT TO BE DESTROYED ! ”
… There CAME A WORLD where HAPPINESS E N D S .
“ [ RED c o l o r ], PLEASE. N O M O R E;
DON’T BRING RUIN TO ANYONE ELSE’S F U T U R E . ”
I thought as I CRIED again, keeping it HIDDEN WITH A SMILE
“ … IF I HAD [ T H A T … RED ? ] M Y S E L F ,
could I S A V E S O M E O N E ’ S F U T U R E ? ”
AWKWARD and SHAMEFUL ,
this is my L O N E L Y P L A N … .
… … … … …
… … … … … …
Now that I ’ M G O N E , I WONDER IF
[ M Y F A M I L Y ]
Are S T I L L G E T T I N G A L O N G ,
and SMILING TOGETHER ?
I ‘ M S U R E they must be U P S E T WITH ME —
But I W O N D E R I F I H A V E B E C O M E
/// “ THEIR CHILD " ///
… N O W .
Please try to REMEMBER THAT WORD I L O V E D;
" H A P P I N E S S " is a C U R I O U S T H I N G ,
SO I HOPE

LYRICS:
The SAME VOICE , the same scenery.
My heart would bounce without a care.
AGAIN , the S A M E F U T U R E .
You’ll believe it to be SOMETHING NEW .
“ What’s wrong ? I don’t UNDERSTAND . ”
YOU TIGHTLY SHUT YOUR EYES .
The color of the SUNSET , tears are streaming down my face
as the sincerely hoping heart gets dyed in
R E D . . .
“ YOU SEE ,
if I could be WITH YOU AGAIN ,
TOMORROW and THE NEXT DAY , too ,
then I would be
… really happy . “
I will just R E P E A T IT ALL OVER AGAIN ,
So that I can look at tomorrow’s sky WITH YOU .
In order to some day COME ACROSS

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.}

Summary:
{ WORDS }
-- To be honest,
Taichi and Koushiro don't need words.
( They have a lot more than Just )
( words )
-- Like,
... the way that Taichi-san
looks at him,
so gently.
( ... when he thinks Koushiro can't tell. )
Like,
... the way that Koushiro does
the exact same thing
all the time
( and Taichi notices )
( every time. )
Like,
... the way that Taichi-san
-- gently touches his shoulder.
( Attempting reassuring? him )
Like,
... the way that Koushiro ALWAYS,
ALWAYS, WITHOUT FAIL, uses,
"Taichi-san"
Like,
the way Taichi --
-- RECOGNIZES --
... WORDS ARE HARD for Koushiro.
Like,
the way Taichi --
-- is always there for him
-- regardless.
Like,
the way Koushiro --
will always be
by --
Taichi-san’s
-- side
-- until,
the very end.
Notes:
-Originally written December 29, 2018; not posted previously.
-Posted today for a couple particularly kind-of-reasons (see tags).
-Also, when taking place in the main REPEAT universe,
my Asexuality spectrum headcanons for either may be read in/implied
- it is also Asexuality Awareness week, hence also why posting today.
{ Ace Week is October 25 through October 31st }
{ for Taichi I can see him as Demiromantic Pansexual OR
Pan-Demiromantic & Demisexual, depending on ‘verse }
{ for Koushiro, essentially the same thing.
However, in Tri canon compliancy specifically, I usually put him as
Demiromantic Pansexual }
{ I can also see either as Queer in general, or Bi.
[ while also using Gay as an Umbrella term ]
Though for Koushiro I usually keep him specifically more as Pan.
For both I also really love Gender-fluid headcanons,
though this part was specifically also written with
Ace and Aro[mantic]-spectrum headcanons in mind. }

IMPLIED TAISHIROS + YOSHIE-MAMAAAAAAA
( I'M SORRY I still prefer her name as ' Yoshie ' jUST
I KNEW IT THAT WAY FOR /YEARS/ ..... )
[*Mrs Izumi’s name is more commonly listed/translated as: “Kae”*]
(*implied as she shares this first name with her Japanese voice actor)
[*however, the kanji can also be read as “Yoshie” and has at times been
Translated by other translators as such in the past]
LYRICS / TRANSLATION + FURTHER
Taishiro Ficverse-spoilery notes under the “read more” !
* This original song DOES NOT have an originating music video so this imagery was mainly compiled BY MY IDEAS /YEAH/
* There IS an old Fanmade video to the song
( bUT IT IS NOT OFFICIAL/SEMI-OFFICIAL BY ANY MEANS )
( unlike the well-known "KageDaze" fanmade video by Wannyanpuu )
[ who later became one of the official Kagepro animators ]
( her music video there was not official but there have been seeming throwbacks to her style in other official music videos at times ... )
* However the Gunjou Rain fanmade video DOES give a clear example of how the original song should be viewed for that canon (should you be interested)
* PSUEDO-character deaths implied in song hOWEVER
* IT'S MOSTLY VIA FLASHBACKS .....
IT'S A VERY PRETTY SONG I SWEAR .....
* The Psuedo-death does not involve the major character [officially] but it does involve a side/supporting character in original Kagepros series
* Psuedo-deaths involving Taishiro/KOUSHIRO ARE here as usual however
* part of these were, yes, again lifted from
my much earlier KageDaze / Red videos (specifically the “Red” edit clip)
* oK BUT
* THERE'S A GORGEOUS ELECTRIC GUITAR SOLO TOWARDS THE END
* Multiple parts of this thing DEFINITELY gave me trouble
( mainly : matching up lyrics to my ficverse while different story themes OTL )
* and also matching them to scenes that aren't filler
* later on I'll go and smooth it over + fix glitches but fOR NOW /YEAH/
* I THREW IN SOME 2020!TAISHIROS FOR MAXIMUM FEELS
( THANK YOU TOEI ) ....................................... ;;;;;; ;A;/
TRI/SPOILERS involve:

{ LYRICS }
[ Verses 1 ]
" I CAN'T SLEEP , " YOU wailed,
... so I read you a storybook ,
... As the raindrops KNOCKED on the roof. ...
When I put in the bookmark ,
and said I’ll read it again TOMORROW , ...
... You were already snoozing away . ...
... ( instrumental )
[ Verses 1-2 ]
You say you WANT TO GO OUT ,
but the reason I DON'T LET YOU ,
... ISN'T BECAUSE I " HATE YOU " AT ALL ... ...
... Yes, it’s about CONVENIENCE ---
BUT IT PAINS ME IN MY CHEST .
... So I’ve said " SORRY " AGAIN AND AGAIN . ...
[ Verses 1-3 ]
... And YOU can " L O V E " THIS SAME WORLD TODAY ,
With YOUR EYES ,
... and the WONDERFUL THINGS you do ...
[ Chorus 2 ]
DAYS COME AND GO ,
SEASONS PASS ,
I WIPE YOUR TEARS ,
... AND YOU S M I L E .
And FOR THAT ALONE ,
I want to HOLD ONTO YOU TIGHT
... Or so I FIND MYSELF THINKING ...
And if THE FUTURE is TO COME
" KNOCKING " ONE of THESE DAYS ,
I want to SEND THEM OFF
with REASSURANCE and a S M I L E . ...
... ( instrumental / interlude ) ...
[ Interlude Verses ]
... A SUDDEN FAREWELL to THE WORLD I'D GROWN SO FOND OF.
A FRIGHTENING FAREWELL , one which leaves you SO SAD .
I COULDN'T SAY
{ " I’m sorry . " } { " Gomen Ne " }
I W A N T E D TO SAY :
{ " I LOVE YOU . " } { " Aishiteru " }
...But " THE WORLD " is ALREADY [ " O P E N I N G " ] .
[ Final Verses ] + ... ( final instrumentals )
... As THE RAINDROPS “ KNOCK ” on THE ROOF ,
... YOU READ that [ " D I A R Y " ] of MINE .
... And the tears spilled. [ / The sound of the “RAIN” is “ KNOCKING ” . ]
... And the tears spilled. [ / The sound of the “RAIN” is “ KNOCKING ” . ]
... And the tears spilled. [ / The sound of the “RAIN” is “ KNOCKING ” . ]
... And the tears spilled. [ / The sound of the “RAIN” is “ KNOCKING ” . ]
... And the tears spilled. [ / The sound of the “RAIN” is “ KNOCKING ” . ]
... And the tears spilled. ..... ... ... .
[ / The sound of the “RAIN” is “ KNOCKING ” . ] *
( “ And the tears spilled. ... ” Repeats + Fade outs )
Translation Notes / Musings:
* - the more literal line is the former, ( “KNOCKING” in actual line )
‘ the sound of the ’ “ RAIN ” = “ Tears ”,
“ knocking ” implying them falling
{ FURTHER NOTES }
the fanmade music video for original themes
(/not/ official or by producers in any way):
[ however it's basically exactly what happens canon-wise /yup/ ]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGndj2aIEm4
spoilery notes RE: PSUEDO DEATHS / WARNINGS:
* the singer in the song is the mother of Mary in Kagepro who is a Medusa.
* "Don't make eye contact" / etc. re: "EYES" is all related to that plot in Kagepros
* in Repeatverse / this AMV this is all working qUITE different hOWEVER
* YOSHIE DOES PROBABLY TRY TO INTERFERE AT SOME POINTS
* PARTICULARLY IN VAMDEMON ARC y E A H
* BOTH IZUMIS PROBABLY ATTEMPT TO LATER ON AS WELL
* obviously they're doing this to PROTECT KOUSHIRO
re the middle portion verses:
* this is also more Kagepros relevant than 'verse relevant but I tried to match it up OTL
* basically Kagepros mother is re: above spoiler ALSO part Medusa.
She waits decades for her own "mother" to return
* I tried to manipulate these bits here with Koushiro and Yoshie / Izumis
* basically uh in some timelines MAYBE Yoshie ends up "waiting" in similar ways
* i.e. maybe the entire Izumi family could become affected aT POINTS .........
* POSSIBLY INVOLVING IZUMIS WE NEVER REALLY GOT TO SEE .........
* but yeah those lines are probably better read from Koushiro's POV before switching back to Yoshie
* i.e. maybe in some timelines it's KOUSHIRO waiting for YOSHIE to return etc
* in others Masami or Mr Izumi ends up going first to protect them BOTH and yEAH
* in fact it's probably Mr Izumi who first tries to intervene to protect them but
* Yoshie gets upset she's not able to do anything
* maybe there's timelines that alternate with this theme though
* a bunch of things in notes above kinda were vaguely ?? ?
included in the 'verse in this part: https://archiveofourown.org/works/14414505/chapters/40780040
( which was ALSO inspired by the same song uh ..... yup )
^ I included A BUNCH OF REFERENCE LINKS ABOVE
to some of my past posts / Koushiro caps and Japanese version references
so you can get a better idea of the themes
+ Koushiro character develoment / introspections all being presented here
+ AND HOW TRI’S KOUSHIRO STORYLINE DIRECTLY TIES IN
TO EVERYTHING CONNECTED/PRESENTED TO THE ORIGINAL
ADVENTURE / 02 STORYLINE SCENES WITH YOSHIE {/KAE}
AND KOUSHIRO’S TENDENCY TO
“Speak formally” * and how he
IMPROVES THROUGHOUT 02/TRI
(I hope my implications are coming through?!???)
( * Since apparently the wider Western / US / English dub fandom tends to COMPLETELY not understand Japanese version!Koushiro’s implied / extended storyline re: him speaking formally most of the time
[also in relation to his use of Japanese honorifics] +
{his insisting use of “ Taichi-san” may ALSO be relevant} and how this all connects to HIS ADOPTION STORYLINE even though . KOUSHIRO’S STORY is ... REALLY NOT that hard to understand you guys COME ON... ... ;;)
* SOMEDAY
* SOMEDAY I’LL BE ABLE TO COMPILE ALL THIS
KOUSHIRO + IZUMI FAMILY INTROSPECTIONS INTO A
* ACTUALLY COHESIVE ANALYSIS
* but today is not that day so HAVE THIS AMV INSTEAD ;A;/
* A RELEVANT AND VERY GOOD KOUSHIRO META POST
( not by me but RELEVANT TO THESE THOUGHTS / THEMES )

‘SHOUNEN BRAVE’ (See this song for more JOU)
- OK THOUGH TBH
SORA APPEARS TOO FOR A SIDE REPEATVERSE SOMIs MOMENT
- my Repeatverse side OT4 is still YamaJourami though t B H
- TRI!MIMI from Ketsui does appear though;
mostly non-spoilery / more aesthetic-like ? ??
- well the end of Ketsui!Mimi’s story bit is here but aaa
very small / tiny moments with Jou
- NO MAJOR OTHER TRI SPOILERS OTHERWISE WHOOOOOO
- um I did include one TINY scene from Kokuhaku that was a Meiko moment but
- she’s not actually in the scene or the AMV at all aha
(it’s an aesthetic shot) scene of the glass dropping ………..

IT WAS THE NEWEST SONG AT THE TIME I GOT INTO THIS SERIES ;;;;
literally RIGHT after I started the originating series the next song dropped ;;;;
- I’VE BEEN WANTING TO TRY THIS AMV FOREVER
- LITERALLY I’VE BEEN WANTING TO DO THIS ONE SINCE
THE VERY START OF CREATING THIS ‘ REPEATVERSE ’
( BECAUSE IT EXPLAINS MORE OF MIMI’S ROLE IN THE THING TOO )
- psuedo deaths can be seen/implied BUT since it’s mainly Adv,
nothing Tri-dramatic / spoilery

LYRICS
The S U M M E R B R E E Z E “ K N O C K S ” ,
And when I open up the window,
I hear the chirps of birds wandering from afar. …
I put a half-read book aside,
And say with a smile,
“ WHERE DID YOU C O M E F R O M ? ”
With MY BLINDFOLD still on ,
[ SOMETIME LIKE ] ‘ THREE IN THE AFTERNOON ’ …
… The world is surprisingly simple,
But it's ME who's B I Z A R R E ,
With complication
Which no one ever understands …
… Outside the town, in THE F OR E S T ,
In this house beyond people’s notice…
Yes, that’s why none ever come to visit.
“ D O N ‘ T M A K E E Y E C O N T A C T !!! ”
With a hardened heart,
I resign to loneliness,
Living out my days seeing only “ THINGS ”…
… All I know is WHAT’S IN S T O R I E S ,
And if I L O N G for THE WORLD ,
JUST A BIT , will you F O R G I V E M E for it? …
[ 1ST CHORUS ]
It faintly flowed along;
Even in this irrationality I was born into,
SURPRISINGLY , THERE WAS L I F E ,
… Somewhere inside me .
TELL ME , won’t that WIDE WORLD
In which I IMAGINE A WILD FUTURE ,
Whether it be TODAY or TOMORROW …
Won’t it K N O C K ON MY DOOR ?
[ Verses #2 ]
As I was having such fantasies,
And gazing outside,
I suddenly heard someone speaking…
… I knocked over my half-drunk herb tea,
Spilling it all over the desk.
“ WHAT SHOULD I DO …?”
I thought, staring past the door. …
“LOOK ANYONE IN THE EYES ,
And they’ll TURN TO S T O N E …”
That’s what my PARENTS had heard,
And it seemed MY “ EYES ” were THE SAME …
And the way that ALWAYS GOES IN STORIES ,
Well, SUCH PEOPLE ARE TO BE F E A R E D ,
I KNEW THAT , and THAT’S WHY —-
[ 2ND CHORUS ]
A THUMPING SOUND ECHOED OUT ,
The F I R S T K N O C K I’d ever heard.
And to say I was N E R V O U S …
It wouldn’t be quite enough.
LET ME SAY , that W I L D " W O R L D “
That I IMAGINED to ” K N O C K “
IN REALITY , it ” OPENED THE DOOR “
MUCH MORE EASILY THAN I … expected.
[ INTERLUDE INTRUMENTAL + FOLLOWING VERSE: ]
FINDING ME COWERING,
COVERING MY EYES,
THE PERSON was SURPRISED ;
” IF I LOOK YOU IN THE EYE … YOU’LL TURN TO S T O N E .“,
I STAMMERED , but he just S M I L E D .
"I’ve been LIVING AFRAID AS WELL ,
AFRAID I’D TURN TO STONE … ”
“ But WOULDN’T THE ‘ WORLD ’ BE SO MUCH BETTER ”
“ WITHOUT THAT F E A R ? ”
[ FINAL CHORUS ]
REVERBERATING PEACEFULLY ,
MY HEART OVERFLEW with I M A G I N A T I O N ,
And A BIT OF IT RANG out into THE “ WORLD ” .
AND TELL ME , YOU WHO CAME TO ME
TO TEACH ME ABOUT A " WILD FUTURE “
THAT IF I’M EVER L O S T AGAIN ,
YOU’LL BE HERE ,
… WAITING FOR ME .
. . .
The S U M M E R B R E E Z E COMES AGAIN ,
AND BLOWS AGAINST [ THE THING YOU GAVE ME ] ,
AND I LET IT
OH-SO-GENTLY
... SWAY IN THE W I N D ...

- there is a character death implied early on
and during interlude involving a side character who is
- the girl characters' mother
- there is some blood etc in that scene
( the girl is getting bullied by neighborhood boys,
the mother comes to try to rescue her, but one boy jumps out and . . . )
- other than that it's mainly a safe one ? ;;;;;
- ( you can just close your eyes during interlude to avoid blood moments )
- ( @ MOTHER CHARACTER ... YOU WERE/ARE OK )
- the mother character seen here is also same singer/POV as the one in
- “ Ultramarine Rain ”
- ( I do not imply the mother appearing in this particular AMV )
- ( but you might get an idea of how I repurpose her role in )
- ( ‘ Ultramarine Rain ’ Repeatverse AMV ) I’M SORRY
