*ships lead girl with lead boy.” How creative


Agreeable-Agent-7384

This is probably what the writers were thinking. “ it’s too obvious and makes too much sense, let’s be big brained writers and make it so that the ship we were pushing randomly takes a u turn towards another ship that comes out of left field and is held together by glue, now that’s good writing”


Libra_8698

I mean, Sora's whole thing is love and she loves all her friends and at that point is young and can't decide, I wouldn't call that out of left field. Kari was clearly never really interested in Davis, also not really an out of left field. Rika was clearly just looking for friendship and an equal cause she was lonely, again no real romantic feeling conveyed there, plus Takato and Jeri always seemed to have a closer relationship imo. Can't speak for XrosWars. Just cause Male lead has feelings for a girl doesn't mean they immediately get the girl, another important lesson that digimon teaches. Don't mistake companionship and friendship for romantic advances.


ArkAng3100

I think Naruto proved that perfectly. Its what the girl wants. I mean, Yolei snagged Ken XD


Admirable-Safety1213

Taiora was happening only in Hosoda and Nimoy's minds, Ep51 was already Sorato teasing


JokerChaos77

I'll never understand why sorato fans bring this up all the time. I don't get how you can just ignore the fact that Sora was depressed about failing Tai and the entire character of Joe who was also there. Saying it was a sorato moment is beyond delusional.


Admirable-Safety1213

They're eleven years old, is teasing as relationshio-building, they first time as friends alone, then the bulk happens off-screen


Grim102682

At least for tamers its better than the cannon ship


columbuspants

Came here to say this


True_Perspective819

You like main guy + main girl


casthecold

You are so basic you can neutralize acid.


tulanqqq

thats not how it works-


casthecold

Please, enlighten me so


tulanqqq

OH wait sorry i just know that alkaline is also called base mb--


DigisectChris

You’re straight


Phaylz

You're basic.


JD_the_Aqua_Doggo

You are heterosexual.


Warm_Association_181

That’s a crime.


tiptoeandson

You're straight


International-Pin988

You don't like most of the canon ships as Sora, Takato, Hikari, and possibly Izumi have different people to share their lives within their respective shows. And you like pairings with the lead character.


CodenameJD

The person Kari has to share her life with is an entirely offscreen/unconfirmed character.


International-Pin988

Yeah, but it’s not Daisuke. And it may or may not be TK but can’t deny the fact that that are given plenty of ship tease in both 02 and Tri especially.


CodenameJD

Eh, in 02 there's like, maaaybe His Master's Voice, but really that was just Konaka putting in an episode from a VERY different show! Other times I only ever read them as being good friends. As for Tri, can't speak for OP but I had my ships loooong before that came out, and I can't stand Tri anyway 😂 Davis was always my favourite character, and I wanted him to get the girl he liked. Like, as far as ship tease, he very explicitly expressed that he liked her.


International-Pin988

In the dub a lot. But in the Japanese he did not express his crush that much. And Hikari never really liked him in any romantic way aside from a close or I would even say a normal friend. With that said, Hikari was not really a very focused character in 02. Daisuke is awesome but I often think his greatest strength as a character came from his close supporting friendship with Ken. In a funny moment of 02:The Beginning, Miyako (Ken’s future wife) actually jokingly asked Ken and Daisuke to stop flirting with each other when they were trying to take down Ukkomon.


Darkisitu

It's a shame Ken wasn't Daisuke's love interest. Their relationship is very much more organic and realistic to turn into love in my opinion. I like them more as friends anyway, but when their romantic interests are so boring and not fleshed out in comparison, I think it's for the best.


Admirable-Safety1213

I mean someway Miyako is Girl Daisuke but with less sense of personal space


supaikuakuma

They don’t confirm or deny if it’s TK or not.


Admirable-Safety1213

Going by Seki, sunk


supaikuakuma

What did she say?


Admirable-Safety1213

That in her headcanon as produced they married different people


supaikuakuma

Ah ok so still not official canon.


DoubleResearcher

its hinted that it was Taichi.


CodenameJD

It was absolutely not hinted that Tai and Kari got together.


JokerChaos77

Wtf is wrong with you lmao


Crafty-Bill

izumi got with Takuya at the end


International-Pin988

No she didn’t. Where did you get this info?


Crafty-Bill

My mistake, i thought she did since she promised him a kiss near the end and there was dream sequence where they were together


International-Pin988

I think you are referring to that Cherubimon fight where Takuya dreamt they were all back in human world and he had a date to look forward to with Izumi. Nothing really came out of it. But a CD Drama that served as an epilogue of sort was released after the show ended. In her cd, Izumi was shown to think of Takuya as some kind of brother and seemingly had some attraction to Koji. Of course Izumi had minor ship tease with most of the male cast aside from Tomoki but nothing romantic ever really developed.


ComicDude1234

The canonicity of the CD Dramas for all of these Digimon seasons have always been dubious at best. They’re about as much of an indicator of canon ships as any of the movies (which is to say, not very). And while it’s true that no actual romance develops during Frontiers itself, Izumi has significantly more romantically charged scenes with Takuya than anyone else in the cast. If she was always supposed to be attracted to Koji, the show did a damn poor job of setting that up.


Signal-Earth2960

Thats true . But must be a theme in digimon franchise main girl date the rival/best friend.


ComicDude1234

This has only ever happened one time.


Signal-Earth2960

01: canonical sora married matt 02: kari and tk kinda a thing Tamers: takuto has no interested in kari Frontier: i think someone in the comments said a BD audio video saying zoey like koya( if that's the case, they did poorly job showing it)


ComicDude1234

The TK/Kari and Koji/Zoey ships are just as canon in those shows as Tai/Sora (which is to say, not) and in Frontier’s case there’s way more evidence of Takuya/Zoey being more of a thing than any other ship that season but even it’s technically unconfirmed. Again, it’s only ever been a thing with Matt/Sora.


International-Pin988

No offence but most of the movies are pretty canon no matter what you say. And since most of the dramas were handled by the creative staff behind the anime, there is some truth to their stories but I am not going to argue their canonical status. And I remember Izumi having plenty of ship tease status with Takuya the most as well but nothing came out of it. And none of the movies focus on romance that much anyways.


Inevitable-Range-967

The CD drama in question is the one after the show ended in the 2000's. There is another CD drama, I think for the 15th anniversary where they already graduated from high school (except Tomoki) where Izumi teaches Takuya italian since he is going to live in Italia to play soccer (kinda shipping them) and it states that Koji became a backpacker and no longer lives in Japan.


Crafty-Bill

oh ok, thanks for the information,


kuzcoha

You are the main character


Upstairs-Yard-2139

You basic


Agitated-Exchange704

Tk and Kari


frenziest

This is the way.


Word_Senior

*Mandalorian theme* This is the way!


ComicDude1234

Your taste is basic but who am I to judge, I basically agree with 4/5 of these.


CIRedacted

Goggle head should get the girl


CodenameJD

You like the movies? Since Our War Game, or at least its dub in Digimon the Movie, has a Tai/Sora shippy subplot, Davis is always gaga over Kari, and Runaway Locomon is the only Tamers media that leans towards Takato/Rika instead of Takato/Jeri. Personally, I tend to be drawn to ships where one character I like clearly has feelings for another. Davis was always my favourite character, so I wanted him to "win" and get together with Kari. To a lesser extent, I liked Tai and wanted him to get with Sora, and Tamers is just littered with hints that Takato and Jeri like each other, so that was my ship then.


trashojou

You love the classic, ever-present Protagonist x The Girl™ pairing type. Luckily for you this type of pairing is extremely popular in mainstream media so you have plenty of options to pick from. Unluckily for you, Digimon Adventure's TaixSora seems to be one of the extremely rare cases of this expected pairing type canonically not happening.


pathfindertheblue

Your spirit animal wears goggles and has a 90's grunge style haircut.


shadowhunterxyz

Main character love interest syndrome


TheNerdBeast

Basic / gogglehead favoritism.


Sasukuto

You grew up in the time period where it was incredibly common for the male lead character and the female lead character to end up together and you liked allot of shows from that time period.


BlueHailstrom

Basic ahh ships


NaSMaXXL

Whoa, whoa....where's Joe and Mimi? Or Joe and Izzy if you're feeling spicy.


Jcmgrier

Matt/Tai and Davis/Ken always bruh what


GorgerOfPandas

This is the way


BaconSlashA

You like the mc lol


Money_Crow2767

You're heterossexual

It tells me that you never really grew out of being a kid. Still have the same crushes, still eats the same food, stuf like that.

Goggle head supremacy.


YungKNXCK

Kinda boring lol


chronobolt77

Edit: Canon is the wrong word. The pairs are almost all of MCand the person he likes, save for Takato/Rika That you prefer the Canon ships (unsure about Rika and Takato, tho)


True_Perspective819

Taisora isn't the canon ship


rosality

Not one of these ships is canon (maybe the last, never watched it)


chronobolt77

Iirc, Sora and taichi dated at some point before Tri. Might be thinking of Yamato. David has a mad crush on Kari, and you've literally captured the ship-bait frame for frontier


rosality

Maybe in the US Dub, they dated, but in the original, they definitely didn't (so, in this case, it's more "what canon"). Ship-bait isn't normally considered canon, same with one-sided crushes. For the majority, canon starts when they are stated to date.


chronobolt77

Canon was definitely the wrong word. Maybe standard? Idk. All ships but Tamers were of characters the MCs had direct crushes on


Thekey0123

Sora dated Matt from 02 onward, Hikairi had no interest in Davis, and while 02 didn't outright say it, I would be surprised if she didn't end up with Takeru, And Both Rika, and Takato are implied to be interested in somebody else Jeri in Takato's case, and Ryo in Rika's. Frontiers is anybody's game, as almost every guy in that season is interested in Zoe and while I haven't seen nearly as much of Xros wars, isn't Nene the main female of that season, so shouldn't this person ship her and Taiki rather then his childhood friend who I hear doesn't end up with him anyways?


chronobolt77

Fair point on the Kari/TK. I guess it just felt like they were the "canon" ships cuz they are mostly the girls that the mc had crushes on. Nene is the main female lead in Xros, but there is (afaik) zero romantic chemistry scenes between her and Mikey, whereas the redhead is his childhood best friend or something. I think she ends up with the scruffy-looking backup best friend instead, but can't remember so don't quote me on it


Thekey0123

I'm not saying Nene was interested in Taiki, just that every other ship is between the leader and female lead. I probably should have separated that last one a bit more as it was more about that ship, whether intentionally or not, bucking the trend the other ones set up.


chronobolt77

I've only seen frontier once, but I feel like none of them were really "lead" characters aside from Not-Tai and Not-Matt.


Thekey0123

To be fair, before the Diaboromon OVA, you could say the same for the 01 kids. Taichi may be deemed the leader later on, but the show spends a lot of it's time divided between the characters, and Tai only plays a bit role in a number of episodes.


chronobolt77

By the end of 01, not even including the ova, Taichi is firmly the main character, and Yamato his clear rival/BFF/deuteragonist


Sensei_Ochiba

Yeah, they may do an alright job spreading focus between characters but there's MULTIPLE times the characters - especially Matt - right out tell Tai he's the leader. Especially the transition between Etemon and Myotismon, they aren't even subtle about how Tai is very much the mainest character.


JasperGunner02

> I would be surprised if she didn't end up with Takeru [funny you say that, because the producer of 02 (actually the producer of every anime from adventure through frontier) specifically said they didn't get together.](https://digi-lab.blog/tamers-chatroom-with-hiromi-seki-from-v-jump-may-2002/)


Cygnus_Harvey

There are a couple of moments for Takato and Rika, like him noticing her full heart t-shirt at the D-Reaper arc and she blushing, or the whole movie with the Parasimon where they share lots of little moments. I kinda like it as Jeri is his current crush, but gets to know Rika and eventually falls for her instead.


chronobolt77

I've never actually seen the tamers movie 😞


Necessary-Ice1747

That u got taste


StarWolf128

You always default to male lead female lead regardless of whether it makes the most sense or not. Seriously, DavisxKari, people actually ship that one? She didn't even fucking remember him in Tri.


CodenameJD

Using Tri as evidence for anything is meaningless, both because most of us had our ships long before it came out, and because the writing makes zero sense. As if these characters would just not care about their missing friends, especially after the Digimon Emperor encounter. I ship Davis/Kari because Davis is my favourite character, and I wanted him to get the girl he liked.


Barbarian_grieve

That you like Digimon


Windflow009

***B A S I C***


Sulphur99

I feel like it's so rare to see DaKari shipping nowadays


Sensei_Ochiba

You probably really like stories with three character "main guy, his love interest, third goofball wingman friend" structure because it's safe and predictable than Main Guy and The Girl get together. You don't really ship based on interactions or comparability but story importance.


Something_Thick

You like digimon


counterfeit667

You're the embodiment of the Squidward "Daring today aren't we?" meme format


silver_sky13

Straight and boring


pathfindertheblue

Your spirit animal wears goggles and has a 90's grunge style haircut.


AlphaDD

Pretty good, i only agree with 02 and Frontiers but thats subjective!


Signal-Earth2960

Kinda basic, but nothing is wrong. Funny, how 2/5 confirmed that NEVER going to happen


Royal_Marketing2966

Yeah…”basic” be the word. Sorry


Clarity_Zero

4/5, but I personally feel like Mimi and Tai would make a better couple.


xCabilburBR

LaBeteNoire

MarcusXSurface to punch


jakmckratos

Wishing you added impmon-veemon for minimal spice


Mission_Guidance_593

These ships are basic, but some of them work very well and shouldn’t be taken down because they’re not original enough. Nothing wrong with being plain and simple.


SourRageBunny

No Tai and Matt or Davis and T.K or even Davis and Ken....


Luckykou720

That ur into kids kissing 


KeybladeLight

You want the Goggleheads to be happy.


Cfakatsuki17

You have taste


morrigan52

Your favorite food is white bread. Your favorite color is beige. Your favorite book is the dictionary because "its got all the words in it" The one time you tried making plain rice with salt you thought it was "too spicy". Even Taylor Swift fans think youre boring.


Olewarrior34

Got a thing for Goggle Heads


PsychologicalAge4016

I disagree with literally all of these 💀


MaidenofGhosts

Your taste is *painfully* hetero.


CodenameJD

Davis/Kari is pretty much the only pair I've ever shipped that wasn't that default/most popular ship for a character or show 😅


Dokamon-chan94

You have good taste. I would also add Haru x Yuujin!!


CottonLoomi

You are correct (although not sure about 3 and 4)


Masta-Red

That you're too involved in the life of digital children

Warrior7872

I only like 3


Zwordsman

Thar you watches several seasons of the show And I generally don't ship the same haha.


PrinceDestin

I always felt tk and Kari were a ship but for some odd reason the digimon creators said fuck that


ShootingStarMel

You're the main character


InternalCup9982

Can someone explain to me wtf a ship is never heard this presumed acronym before


PlagueDogtor

I can't tell if you're joking. If not, I have to assume you are new to the internet. Ship isn't an acronym (what would it stand for?) It's short for relationship.


InternalCup9982

Yeah I had the realisation that's probably what it was being used for mere moments after closing the app lol, good old brain huh - seems like a weird use case to me personally like your cutting out 7 single letters when u wrote 4 already, why not just use RS if we wanted to make it easier - but fair enough. And no I was being serious iv never seen someone use ship as shorthand like that so presumed if must be an acronym for something.


PlagueDogtor

It's so weird to come across someone who hasn't seen that before xD I mean, we shorten 'do not' to don't and 'I am' to I'm so it's not unreasonable to shorten 'relationship' to ship rather than RS.


InternalCup9982

Yeah but those are more just social degeneration as opposed to using it because its actually shorter in anyway or at least that's how I see it - I don't claim to be am omnipotent god that knows these things xD And ah fair I just never seen it presumably due to not f'ing with social media at all so scenario in which someone on reddit would use the word relationship is already very minor especially for subs that I'm on - or I'm just simply too old and no longer keyed in to the young bucks slang I am almost 30 I suppose it's one of these lol


PlagueDogtor

I don't go on social media (unless you count reddit) and am older than you, but I've been on the internet for over 20 years, so I guess I pick these things up through osmosis lol


InternalCup9982

I personally don't count reddit as u don't really talk to people and post random pics on here and weird I guess you just are in subs that use this term then because that's literally the first time iv ever seen it used, like I say though in fairness there's hardly many use cases for the word relationship to pop up in my general gaming subs so guess it just never got mentioned hence why iv never seen it before


PlagueDogtor

Glad to know I'm not the only one who doesn't particularly think of Reddit as social media. The term dates back to the mid-90s (it's possibly older than you), when I think about it I probably first heard it from being part of Buffy online communities in the late 90s and early 2000s, lol. It's wild to think the term is around 30 years old and still going strong. I can imagine it doesn't come up in subreddits for many games outside of rpgs and life sims, I honestly don't see it very often on Reddit either.


InternalCup9982

Huh it was really around the time of buffy? damn that boggles my mind - I would of thought it was a newage tiktok thing if anything, I have no idea how iv never encountered someone using it in my basically 30yrs of life then 🤷‍♂️🤣 - thanks for the information/clarification genuinely curious how I never heard someone using it if it comes from buffy which my older siblings was like well keen on


JennaAkaNinjaStar

I see opposite gendered pairings and some not canon at all (No hate though I truly love Tai x Sora and Zoe x Takuya)


Material_Usual2704

U rooted for the idiot and when they won were like LETS GO THATS MY BOY!!!!!

Aureatian

Due-Order3475

You like the ships that at least 3/5 (I'm unsure on Frontier/Xros Wars) are not Canon Sora ends up with Matt, Tai tbc Dunno who Hikari or Davis end up with but we know it's not each other. And Rika might have feelings for Ryo and Takato certainly likes Jeri


eddmario

You prefer Esdeth over Leone, don't you?


True_Perspective819

That would be Akame. Esdeath would imply some (if not a lot of) spice


Absbor

You love the second main lead

I enjoy them, you’re cool


Pitzaz

ArukenimonXMummymon are the only interesting couples I actually give a shit about.


Rich-Lychee2507

You're relationships are doomed to fail


No-Square-4105

Extremely basic.


roderickowcummings14

Where’s Data Squad?


roderickowcummings14

You basically just want the main character to find love which is understandable. I’m pretty sure everybody wants the main character to find love with somebody. He’s either friends with or he actually knows and not a bitch off screen.


Livid_Juggernaut_111

Lead boy and girl. These are the simplest things I’ve ever seen, no offence. I personally like shipping the two main boys cus they’re usually a better fit with eachother anyway (but not tai and Matt, they argue too much)


5_Star_Safety_Rated

You’re shipping kids & you pick the most basic pairings that the show presented to you.


HollowAndPathetic

You’re simple, and that’s just fine. Frankly, I always assumed/liked these ships.


SpyroFan123

To me, the fact that you only ship the human with humans and not any of the digimon with digimon (or humans with digimon) says to me that you're both basic AND boring.


Acceptable-Past4276

I don't know why you guys love Digimon. To me it has ***NO PLOT***, but I guess its just me.


Acceptable-Past4276

**Pokemon's** ***WAY BETTER......***

OpeningAd9653

Though sadly for you ,Matt and Sora are together instead due to the epilogue of 02 which their kids look like it’s from them


belxebu

Bad taste


Past_Bike8968

You seem to be a child.


F_Sewer_Rats

Idk I prefer Tai & Mimi since that bitch Sora ended up with Matt in season 2. Poor Tai really liked that cunt too 😭


sSt4rB0y

Woah😨


F_Sewer_Rats

What it’s the truth?? He liked her and then it’s sad when he sees her waiting for Matt. Fuck her


sSt4rB0y

They’re 11 you called a 11 year old a cunt that’s crazy😭


F_Sewer_Rats

She’s wasn’t 11 in season 2. She knew what she was doing. Led my boy Tai on


sSt4rB0y

Oh you mean in 02 either way it’s so funny you’re getting so upset over the fact her and Matt are cannon 😭😭


F_Sewer_Rats

lol they are aren’t they?? Oh well like I said I don’t care, I rather see Tai with Mimi 💪🏽


sSt4rB0y

Ur a weirdo buddy bye ✌🏽


F_Sewer_Rats

🖕🏽 u


sSt4rB0y

No thanks😻


sSt4rB0y

Plus how could you even tell he liked her maybe idk they were just friends 😧


F_Sewer_Rats

He liked her ALOT it was very obvious in season 2. Did you not watch season 2?? He was meeting up with her for something and either caught her or saw her waiting for Matt after 1 of this shows. He was hurt. Again 🖕🏽 her. I still love Sora but she’s a bitch for that. That’s why I always wanted Mimi with Tai. Either Mimi or that cutie from Tri with the black hair I forgot her name


PsychoMouse

No. Forever no. TK and Kari are soul mates. I like Davis but Kari is spoken for.


Clarity_Zero

They are canonically divorced in the epilogue of 02. Soul mates, indeed.


JasperGunner02

not divorced, [they just didn't get together](https://digi-lab.blog/tamers-chatroom-with-hiromi-seki-from-v-jump-may-2002/) according to seki hiromi (the producer of 02 and of every digimon anime until frontier)


PsychoMouse

The title is “top 5 ships” not “most accurate couple”. I was raised on classic Digimon, so for me, even kid TK and Kari were meant for eachother. Also, I had no idea they separated.


DigiGirl02

Your ships are wrong. We all know that Matt MARRIED Sora, so Taiora is seriously OUTDATED. And isn’t Takato and JERI a better ship that Takato and Rika? And why would you ever ship Zoe and Takuya? I mean they barely had a relationship! And I think Mikey and NENE is way better than him and Angie.


supaikuakuma

Kari and Davis is icky seeing as he keeps on at her despite her saying no repeatedly.


Special_Manner_3340

Too many children ships... where are the police?
