{Digimon Adventure/02} A.M.V.
"Love Me Tender" {Part 1}
Featuring:
{ADOPTEE!}Koushiro{u} Izumi, Mrs. Izumi & Mr. Masami Izumi
{as Platonic/Familial Love/Gen}
(+Masami x Mrs. Izumi as Ship/Canon Relationship)
Song: "Love Me Tender" (Cover) of song by Elvis Presley
from "Kyou Kara Maou!" anime,
covered by Morikawa Toshiyuki
This AMV is a WIP {Work-In-Progress}.
Additional scenes may be added even here in future.
Please check back to see if future parts get completed!
The aim is to eventually complete the near-entire song.
This is a short AMV edit emphasizing Koushiro's role as a
canon Adoptee in the Digimon Adventure series/franchise.
"Chosen Family Day" is also acknowledged Feb. 22nd,
so along with being made for that-
Earlier the Japanese fandom side held a Koushiro-focused
Fanworks event lasting through December and part of January;
it can also be considered a belated work for that,
"Izumi{s} Day" / "Izumi Festival" / Izumi no Hi!
{& Yes, I am very Aware this song is describing Love.
That May be The Point*-} :)
* In the Kyou Kara Maou novels version of series, Conrad
(voiced by Morikawa Toshiyuki in anime) sings this to
Baby!Yuuri to calm him down during a life-threatening situation;
because Conrad didn't know English well {"at all"},
Conrad doesn't initially understand the full contexts, but
maybe various meanings gets through to Baby!Yuuri anyway.

"...and Koushiro, {in 'that' kind of 'world'}, would 'just' be a 'quiet' person who loves computers. Yes, Koushiro might remain *partly* 'expressionless', to a point... but Koushiro would still laugh at jokes that don't land - including Koushiro's own - and might blush just a bit in embarrassment. And then as time goes by... Koushiro would just gradually open up Koushiro's heart."
"...That's the kind of person Koushiro might become..."
- Taichi Yagami {"Incorrect Quote"}
(Source: "Suzumiya Haruhi no Shōshitsu")
“Why won’t you allow Tentomon to evolve?! Tell me why!”
Koushiro understood after Taichi explained himself, but he turned pale upon realizing that he had spoken to his senior {senpai} Taichi with such an insolent tone. Even {Koushiro} seemed surprised at what {Koushiro} had done.
“I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean—”
But Taichi said, “Don’t worry about it. In fact, it made me happy to hear you speak so casually to me. I felt like you’d finally opened up your heart to me.”

While Koushiro swam his way through the zero gravity air-space, Vadermon chased after {Koushiro} with the zigzag motions of a UFO, shooting at {Koushiro} at every chance.
The rings of light were more powerful than they looked. The stars that took on a direct hit from them burst into smithereens.
"Just how do we beat Vadermon?"
{Koushiro}'s inquisitive heart back where it belonged, it did not take long getting down to work within Koushiro.
Calming himself, {Koushiro} analyzed the situation.
{Koushiro}'s Digimon partner Tentomon was currently in the form of Babumon, who didn't have much fighting power. {Tentomon} would have to evolve. But how? What was evolution anyway? What are Digimon? What are the Chosen Children?
"I want to know! I want to know! I want to know!" Koushiro shouted.
A single star above {Koushiro}'s head glittered.
The star changed into a shape Koushiro had once seen before, flying like a comet into Koushiro's hand.
It was a Crest.

D I G I M O N Adventure{s} (+02; tri.; Kizuna)
~ A.M.V. Preview {Unfinished} / [In-Progress] / W.I.P:
- Only Exception (sung by: Par@more)
featuring DUO/O.T.P:
- KouTai (Koushiro x Taichi)
-- (KouxMimi appears briefly in the 2nd verse.
However, the focus is KouTai.)
Disclaimer: I do not own DigiAdvs. This is FAN-MADE.
No $$$ is being made off this fan-work
Notes:
This A.M.V. is currently UN-FINISHED.
As of now, only the 2nd chorus and a bit more through the interlude,
is (partially!) completed.
Hopefully you find some enjoyment so far though!
The 1st part had taken about 45~ min already.
The 2nd verse + chorus took about another 35~ min.
This 3rd section took about 30 min at start,
another 1 hr to wrap up scenes through the interlude,
and already had a total of 1 crashing of my editor.
These may not be final scenes as I make adjustments.
(However, it came together well despite the crash!)
There is a tiny bit of scenery shots from beginning of Kizuna,
then, by the interlude, some more Kizuna spoilers involving
Taichi & Koushiro mainly, but you will see a scene of the Chosen.
Tri spoilers, mainly Taichi & Koushiro supporting each other moments,
are also added in this new section;
there are moments from Saikai, Kokuhaku and Kyousei, mainly.
The ends of Kokuhaku and Kyousei are not spoiled, but there is lead-up.
DigiAdv 2020 scene (for A.U. spinoff) becomes included by the interlude
(it’s mainly Koushiro moments from beginning of Ep 36, so far)
However, it can also be seen as inclusive of wider Adventure{s} canon;
and basically paralleling the following canon moments.
{Lyrics Preview}:
“I’ve got a ‘TIGHT’ {Grip} on {REALITY} BUT I {CAN’T}
LET {GO} of "WHAT’S” {in FRONT of ME} HERE---”
“LEAVE ME WITH some KIND of {Proof} it’s {NOT}-A-{Dream}...”
{To Be Continued?!...}

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!)

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;/

{ 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

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

instead of the more informal / distanced “ Arigatō gozaimas(u) ” ]

“ Arigatō gozaimas(u)... ah ... no... A- Arigatō ... ... ” ... )
