Digimon Adventure tri. x Our War Game ~
~ Direct References {to past canon}
~ Important Dialogues
~ Callbacks
~ Worldbuilding
+ The Ishida-Takaishi Family
(featuring side Taichi & Koushiro involvement)
+ Tri!Takeru picking up on Meiko’s Japanese Dialect
(Tottori and Shimane can be considered
‘like’ the Japanese ‘Countryside’, but they’re regions of Japan!)
“Dandan!” - Takeru’s Grandmother (speaking),
in appreciation to Takeru helping her
In 2nd Digimon Adventure movie, “Our War Game”*
[also often referred to as “Childrens’ War Game”]
{“Bokura no War Game”}
Further original commentary under the ‘read more’!
{“Bokura no Mirai” / “Our Future”, Tri part 6, shows us...}
{Meiko is teaching Meicoomon how to SAY
the phrase, “DANDAN”}
BONUS:
(Continued scenes from “Our War Game”)
”You’re right. I should go bring in the laundry.”
“DANDAN!” “DANDAN!” - Man to Woman, above
(not mentioned in this older translation, but you can hear it SPOKEN)
My Commentary:
I have since determined “Our War Game” Yamato & Takeru are, in actuality, some of my favorite “forms” of Yamato & Takeru ever.
A LOT of people never (apparently!) caught these references, but yes,
they’re actual things...
(You CAN hear it spoken in the script, if you watch the Japanese version)
The implication since “Our War Game” is that “DANDAN”
was a regional phrase / part of the spoken dialects there,
of the Japanese prefectures (regions/locations) featured in the series.
Shimane is where Takeru + Yamato’s grandmother,
“Kinu” is from, who is also referenced in the script
(“Kinu-san’s grandchildren.”).
Tottori is where Meiko’s family was from, stated in “Ketsui”
the 2nd part of Tri.
This is why Takeru is the main one to pick up on Meiko’s dialect,
and even comments directly on it.
It’s because Takeru recognized it.
Shimane and Tottori
are both located in the Chūgoku region of Honshu.
(Even Koushiro lightly {casually} refers to it as,
“The one {prefecture} with the sand dunes!” about Tottori, helpfully,
while Taichi, looking RIGHT AT Yamato, mentions,
“Shimane’s the one with no computers.”)
“That was a million years ago!” - Yamato, shooting back
(who had a lot of misadventures in Shimane
during the 2nd Adventure movie in J.P.N, “Our War Game”)
In the mid-end half of “Kokuhaku, the 3rd film,
we see a small segment of Meiko at her original home’s location:
(You can see how it looks traditional Japanese style
in the architecture of Meiko’s home.)

Hii ! What are your thoughts about meiko and her place in the canon ending of Digimon ? I love the theories everyone is coming Up with . And what do you think about meikeru?
(holy shit this is a long answer I’m so sorry)
Why do you guys always ask me difficult questions??? I genuinely have no idea, I’m not sure I have actual theories about her. I usually just go with the flow and it’s rare for me to hate a character so I definitely can say that I enjoy Meiko, after the last movie I like her even more, she’s actually hardcore I mean, always throwing herself in front of the danger to protect meicoomon, that’s cool shit man you can’t hate on Meiko. There’s literally no way to say where this series is going, for all I know they can either be chill and change the whole ending or actually kill her off. It would explain the whole warning that Tri’s target audience has changed.
BOI I LOVE Meikeru! Platonic or Romantic, every Meikeru is good shit for me, although for now I’d like to see the platonic side only because they have such a good potential. The romantic part is optional and won’t be in the series anyway.
Meiko clearly feels like an intruder, Sora and Mimi are doing most of the job to make her feel comfortable and Takeru is the only guy of the group who actively interacts with her on regular basis, which is maybe why people are starting to think there’s a romantic interest going on, while Takeru is still, well... the young Takeru from the first adventure who gets attached fast and is overall friendly and naive. True, he is also a fuckboy but he probably just thinks Meiko is cool because well. She is.
