+ (Tri!)Koushiro’s Character Traits (& Mini-Analysis)
My Commentary:
Like, some of the obvious POP culture references / in-jokes some of the other ‘outfits’ had aside, most of these outfits actually looked quite reasonable (and comfy, imo!! - which is pretty much the point I think Koushiro was going for?!??) and I could easily see Koushiro wearing some/most any of these canonically at various points of Koushiro’s tri. and post-tri. teen-aged lifetime, even just purely for fun.
Heck, I’ve seen fan-artists (including on the J.P.N end and even in / using specifically their Tri-esque designs / outfits)
draw Koushiro in MULTIPLE outfits like this!
{I kind of think the “King” outfit SHOULD stay, though.}
Also, the kimono choice is, like, fine? Koushiro’s Japanes---?
I’m just saying OK!!! Yes!! #LETKoushiroHaveFunWithFashion

(Please ASK to Use)
OK but Mainly I want to know which animator/Clothing Designer (as I’ve seen exist from some Tri and etc. Staff listings) specifically was involved in this specific segment / outfit set because they were clearly having a BLAST designing Koushiro like 20+ random outfits and honestly, as a Koushiro fan who has supported Koushiro since finding this series in my childhood
I CAN’T actually blame them??
(You don’t even HAVE to use / consider every single one there,
even TRI!KOUSHIRO doesn’t canonically use all of these!!)
{This is more of a quick compilation;
I might expand on this post in the future and re-post it.}
I could also relate everything to do with motor skills and fine motor skills involving clothing and Autism when it comes to certain Autistic head-canons I may have, including buttoning clothes, but that might be a topic for another day...
(Do you see how the shirts
TAKERU AND JOU actively help pick out FOR KOUSHIRO are comfy,
A more baggy plain blue pullover (Takeru) and the DigiFes tee (Jou),
without buttons?)

This A.M.V. was pretty much made on a complete whim after I heard this thanks to a Japanese Taishiro/TaiKou fan on Twitter recommending another by this group as
"DEFINITELY a TaiKou song"

As a result it IS in actuality semi canon compliant to a very strong degree, but please keep in mind the intended pairing is mainly KouTai (though I ship various other Koushiro ships too!)

My Commentary:
Even if you disagree with my comparisons of the medias,
if you have never watched it (or maybe you’d rewatch in)
subtitled in original Japanese version in full,
I highly suggest you give all of Adventure, 02,

even if you thought you knew everything!

Digimon Adventure vs Digimon Adventure: [2020 Reboot] ~
vs. Digimon Adventure tri. Movie 3 [Kokuhaku (Confession)]
(Autistic Headcanon!)Koushiro Izumi Character Analysis +
~ Comparisons / Parallels (Japanese version)
+ Displaying Common Neurodivergent {+Autistic} Traits
{In General}
+ "Without” Accessibility/Accomodations vs "With”
{or, the difference of a 90s era laptop
and a 2020 high performing tablet}
(compare Adventure Episode 10 with Adventure 2020, above)
+ {Incorrectly} often Perceived as “ Cold ” (by Others)
+ Unintentionally Missing Social Cues
“Well, it’s true that Koushiro {“lacks charm”}...”
“But {Koushiro}’s not a {“bad” child}.”
“I think {Koushiro}’s a REALLY GOOD {Child}/{Person}.”
(notably with Mimi, + relevant in his early interactions with Meiko)
{to a lesser extent, this is ALSO NOTABLE in
Koushiro’s interactions with Taichi,
[ later Adventure + Our War Game
(2nd Adventure Movie in Japan) ]
arguably his closest friend }
“{ WHEN HE GETS CAUGHT UP IN SOMETHING },”
″HE JUST DOESN’T { NOTICE } { ANYTHING ELSE }.”
- Tentomon explaining to Mimi, Adv Ep 10
+ “Koushiro IS DOING EVERYTHING HE CAN TO HELP YOU !”:
“ABOUT KOUSHIRO...”
“He’s INVESTIGATING THIS WITH ALL HIS HEART...”
“ HE SAYS IT’S ALL HE CAN DO . ”
( after a long moment, Taichi sounds tense and insistent
as he’s asking Meiko to FORGIVE KOUSHIRO
after Koushiro was interrogating her earlier, missing more cues.
Mimi had once again herself been slightly upset
with Koushiro, and for Meiko’s sake. )
[ SO ... ] ”
- Digimon Adventure tri.: SOUSHITSU [‘LOSS’]
( Japanese version )
~ When Tentomon is stuck together with Mimi
in a familiar past location, { familiar to Mimi as well }
Mimi, who was previously frustrated with Koushiro,
{due to instances of him missing her + Meikos social cues}
then ends up saying the above,
encouraging Tentomon and recognizing Koushiro’s helpfulness.
( COMPARE to all of the above scenes with them all. )
“KOUSHIRO-KUN, HUH?
HE’D BE A GREAT HELP IF HE WERE HERE.”
- Mimi to Tentomon, about Koushiro
- Digimon Adventure: [2020 Reboot] Episode 03
~ Koushiro babbling on, completely missing Taichis’
social cue {standing stock still & shocked} until the last moment;
Koushiro then glances away,
avoiding eye contact / looking at Taichi.
DIGIMON ADVENTURE EPISODE 38 (Japanese version):
“ THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH BEING INTO COMPUTERS ! ”
{“THAT TRAIT OF YOURS IS WHAT MAKES YOU
WHO YOU ARE.”}
“ YOU DON’T HAVE TO CHANGE YOURSELF FOR US . ”
BONUS:
{ I try to keep in mind "Our War Game”,
the 2nd released Adventure movie in Japan, was not directly written
by Hiroyuki Kakudou, the head director of Adventure + 02,
but considering various things such as Omegamon’s debut
from it is still often referenced and recognized by the staff ... }:
[ note: “This is no time for fights!” is being said by YAMATO. ]
[ and not much later on, during a highly dramatic battle moment... ]
Taichi: (after a long silence; apologizing to Koushiro) ... Sorry.
Koushiro: It’s fine.
(COMPARE to the above; later scene of
Tri!Taichi blatantly defending Koushiro to Meiko.)

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;/

[ 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 ” . ]

Translation Notes / Musings:
* - the more literal line is the former, ( “KNOCKING” in actual line )
‘ the sound of the ’ “ RAIN ” = “ Tears ”,
“ knocking ” implying them falling

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 )

+ 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... ... ;;)
