Digimon Time Stranger Commission
I admittedly don't like Vikemon as Shakkoumon's evolution much, but this art helps his case
I see the vision a bit better seeing them all together like this. A holy king and paladin. An ice viking. A mystical valkyrie. A holy beast in gold
Continuing on Mimi's and Joe's arc in Determination, what brought Mimi's spark back was validation from Meiko, who in turn felt happy to be part of something good thanks to Mimi. I found super sweet that Meiko had the initiative to tell Mimi how much she impacted her in a positive way.
As for Joe, Gomamon leaves his house, saddened to see that Joe's evading his responsibility as a Chosen, overwhelmed by his studies which aren't even going well. When Taichi lets him know that Gomamon's at the school festival, Joe goes looking for him. Then Gomamon tells him he's stepping aside to take the pressure of fighting off his shoulders, adding that he won't run away but will just leave Joe in peace.
In the past, Tentomon, Palmon and Gabumon, for example, stayed by their partners' sides through their doubts. Even in Tri, Agumon stays by Taichi's side while he hesitates to fight, but the difference is that Taichi was honest with Agumon from the start, on top of not having the academic pressure that Joe has (which changes in Last Evolution Kizuna). Here, Gomamon walks away to spare Joe the pressure but Joe fails to react, leaving Gomamon to face a life or death battle alone, until Hikari tells Joe that his partner is fighting and helps him remember that being chosen as partners is all the reason he needs.
Then Joe runs toward his partner, giving him all his support and triggering his Mega evolution into Vikemon for the first time. It's crazy how much Gomamon had to endure to get Joe back, but his patience paid off, Joe proved he's truly reliable.
Inspired by that momentum and Joe validating her, Mimi also achieves Mega evolution, with Lillymon becoming Rosemon. And together with Leomon, they defeat Black Imperialdramon.
Facing their own darkness and getting through it was what unlocked their true power.

I'm disappointed to find out that there was a show accurate game based on the first Digimon Adventure series
but only on PSP AND only in Japan. I feel like we were robbed of this personally, I looked up gameplay and it looked like a lot of fun, it's an RPG like Final Fantasy or Dragon's Quest, the visuals look just like the anime even down to the exact same transformation animations. Also we get to see the Mega forms for the other main characters
which I never really got why they never appeared in the anime. I suppose we did at least get Patamon and Gatomon's Megas in the movie.
In any case, we need to reach out to Bandai Namco about re-releasing this game on modern consoles.
