Hi there, I hope you don't mind me bothering you a little but I am worried about the upcoming sequel. I am just not too sure whether to be excited or not. On one hand it sounds like a great idea, Tri did too at first, but on the other hand it feels everything being drawn out and is going full circle till we arrive at the 02 ending, which up until now I still despise with every fiber of my being. It broke childhood me little heart into millions of pieces. Even now, I still pretend it never happe

(continued) I build a whole univers where, as chlidish as this sounds for my old age, they (Takari, Koumi) are a thing and telling the broken little childhood me, especially after Hikari mentioned, Takeru has growth in a romantic way, that they just left it in the open (why didn’t Tri delve into this?). But now, if it’s completely drawn out and going full-circle, there might be exactly that ambigues interpretation, resolution will be ruined and there might not be a coming back from it.

Sorry for responding so late, I’m still on semi hiatus and had exams and family events taking up a chunk of my time (this being the season and all). Of course I never feel like anyone who sends me an ask is bothering me, it’s nice that people still want my opinions even though I’ve been so inactive. I hope those who send me asks just don’t mind if it takes me a while to respond ^^’

First off, you are certainly not alone when it comes to disliking the epilogue, even some of the Japanese voice actors have expressed distaste for it.

I’m kind of going to address different things from your ask not in order.

I think the reason why Tri decided not to delve too deep into the Takari relationship is the same reason why they didn’t delve too deep into the Koumi relationship or even the Canon Epilogue Sorato relationship (heck it’s not unreasonable at all to even interpret Tri as retconning the Sorato hook up in 02). This reason being that they want to keep everything vague and up for interpretation in order to not upset any fans who are anti these relationships. Anime as of recently has been moving more and more towards having ambiguous relationships so that fans can interpret things in their own way and also likely so as to not lose any fans who would stop watching if their ships were crushed (you are also seeing this move in western media as well).

This also flows into why I think they aren’t going to build towards the epilogue (although it’s certainly a possibility that they will and I understand your concern). The epilogue is very restrictive and final which goes against everything Tri was, in that Tri left things open ended (heck we still have no idea who mystery guy was, on top of having no idea how any of the characters romantically feel about each other). There is also the fact that Kakudo left the upcoming project, and since he is the primary mind behind the epilogue this could indicate disagreements between him and new staff on how to handle things addressing the epilogue (of course this is all speculation and nothing is for certain, honestly I haven’t been keeping up to date on any statements made regarding the reasons for his leaving). Although Tri certainly hinted at things from the epilogue it was also vague enough that someone could still interpret Tri as an alternate universe diverging from the original ending.

I don’t think it’s childish to have a complete alternate canon in your head where your ships happen, that’s exactly what fanfiction is, and I love fanfiction. I read fanfiction all the time where Taiyama is canon and have pretty much based my blog around them being canonically in love even within the confines of the epilogue. Once works are posted they are just as much the property of the fans as they are the property of the creators so you are free to interpret things however you want. Ultimately everyone is going to see things differently based on their own biases and experiences (using an example outside of the digimon fandom I interpret Draco Malfoy very differently from how JK Rowling herself interprets him and I cannot interpret him the way she wants me to since it very simply goes against everything my experiences have taught me). Many of the works I’ve seen within this community deviate from canon or offer new interpretations within the restrictions of canon, or even interpretations that directly contradict statements made by the original creators, so you are definitely not alone in your way of going about things.

I also want to point out there is nothing in canon that says Takari and Koumi aren’t together in the epilogue. They may not be explicitly said to be together in canon but they aren’t explicitly said not to be together either, so even the epilogue is up for interpretation. I’ve stated before that I’m a firm believer in Death of the Author, and the only reason people say they aren’t together is because the producer stated in an interview that they weren’t and even then she was only referencing Takari. For further details on this particular topic I’ve previously made this post and this post.

Personally, I’m very excited for the new material because I’m just very curious where they are going with it, especially after Tri which ended exactly the way I wanted it to, minus Taiyama becoming canon haha. But I also was very depressed after the fifth Tri movie, partially for exactly the reason you are worried for the new project, because I was worried that they were building to an ending where they just show the epilogue all over again. So I know how emotionally exhausting this situation can be. I’m going to leave you with the response my friend had to your question upon me showing her:

“I can strongly relate to this post. I would tell them what I learnt myself: the moment a piece of art or media is public, it belongs to those who consume no less than those who created it and that emotional impact is ours and ours alone. At the end of the day, the Canon material is just one interpretation of how things could have ended up being. The popularity of fanfiction proves there are many other ways as well. Bottom line - take what you love, love it for what it is and ignore the rest.”

“Unlimited Saga” by Unicorn Jr. Lyrics + Translation

(I usually don’t post the album art, but the cover is very spring-like which fits). This song has been stuck in my head for weeks, and I couldn’t find an English translation so I decided to do it myself. I could only find the kanji lyrics from a person’s blog (see content source for link) so the breakup of the lines and the number of lines per stanza is only as accurate as what that blog has.

This song is very... mature-feeling? I guess that’s a good way to describe it haha. There’s also some innuendos and they even use the English word “bitch” which surprised me. The music itself is very catchy though!!

Read below the cut for notes, kanji, romaji, and the translation~

Romanized and translated by me, please credit if you use the translated part. Feel free to message me if a line should be edited/corrected.

NOTES: “kakukaku shikajika” is a phrase used in place of chit-chat like “blah blah blah” but I translated it as an actual line since it sounds better. That line with チャンプ (CHANPU = “champ”) didn’t make much sense to me, so if anyone has a better idea, let me know. Their dialogue at the very end when they say “Behhh!!” is them sticking their tongue out mockingly. Idk what the onomatopoeia for that in English is though lol

Kanji:

Ah 子供は黙って言うことを聞いてなさい、ってママは何も、教えてくれないから、裏腹なBitchに育ってMASS-GAME？ R程度は、穢(ケガ)れておかないと、Suddenly I see 悪魔がやってきちゃうんだけど－－－今(よのなか)を知ってます？

English Translation:

Ah, child, listen silently Because your mother will not tell you anything Were you brought up as a contrary bitch in this mass-game? While not corrupted by R-rated things, suddenly I see A devil coming Are you aware of the way the world works?

What is it, what is it you enjoy? Discussing and staring at each other in that kitchen, it piles up - cooking up “that”

And so on, and so forth (and so on, and so forth) And so on, and so forth (and so on, and so forth) And so on, and so forth (and so on, and so forth)

“Hahahaha” “Hahahaha” “...It’s embarrassing”

Enough! If you reveal your unleashed feelings directly, (yes, that’s it) a total repudiation will begin Hidden by that veil of darkness, won’t you try sticking your tongue out a little cynically? Now is the chance to change by looking at the world from this angle a little bit

Stay night forever (stay night forever) Stay night forever (stay night forever) So that this unlimited saga will never be exposed

Stay night forever (stay night forever) Stay night forever (stay night forever) I want to talk about this unlimited saga with you

Oh, how many times have adults deceived us? I don’t know Because no one understands anymore, They cling onto an earnest prayer, a see-saw game? If that’s true, I won’t hold onto what I have - radically new word Your heart is diminishing, isn’t it Do you feel the disdain?

It’s fine, it’s fine, being a killjoy is fine. In this middle school, Denouncing and fighting each other, doing someone in, will you give me some “nori?”

Not caring about anyone else (not caring about anyone else) Not caring about anyone else (not caring about anyone else) Not caring about anyone else (not caring about anyone else)

“Hahahaha” “Hahahaha” “...That hurt”

Yes! Let’s leak these affirmations (come on) with this spear of desire that I want to know of Basking in this moonlight, won’t you try dreaming to forget your envy? I know of sadness and “sorrow,” the changed champ is secretly me

Stay night forever (stay night forever) Stay night forever (stay night forever) So that this unlimited saga will never be exposed

Anime - How it influenced my Design Thinking and Process

Digimon Adventure (Season One)

Created by Akiyoshi Hongo

Directed by Hiroyuki Kakudo

Produced by Toei Animation, in cooperation with Wiz, Bandai and Fuji Television

*Aired in Japan between 1999-2000, Aired in North America 1999-2000

Plot: A group of children in summer camp are transported to another world. There they meet their Digimon partner who become their friends, and through many trials and challenges they save the Digimon world together.

http://digimon.wikia.com/wiki/Digimon_Adventure

What is special about this object and how have you incorporated elements of this into your design work/creative practice?

The Digimon Adventure anime series is special to me because it inspired me to draw and design. Being a young kid with a vivid imagination I was told to translate what I imagined in my head on paper. And so, I did. Afternoons spent on the floor drawing versions of the existing character, creating my own, and crafting stories.

This sparked my love for anime and its influence on me. It was nothing like I’ve ever seen before, opposite to the many cartoons that I was watching. The variety of art style, from the simplest to the complex and detailed, in depth storylines, character development, and most significantly the outrageousness of it all.

I like to think that I unconsciously incorporate elements from anime that I’ve learned in my design thinking and process. I am very flexible went it comes to the art style and aesthetic, I like to adapt my designs based on the project and audience. Like a well-developed plot, I like to do ample research to give substance to my process and design. The best characters are a mix of personalities with relatable traits, as much as possible I like to reference my designs from past and existing designs.

What does this object say about your personality and personal style?

Anime consist of many genres, fairy tales to horror stories and everything in between, there’s a story for everyone. I don’t limit myself to just one genre, especially when it comes to design. I want to be able to create and design in every medium: print and digital. This attitude also influences my personality and my personal style, the movies I watch to my taste in music. And though I like to take inspiration from everywhere, I fail to solidify and establish my own style but that’s okay. As I continue to discover and learn I will eventually formulate a design I call my own.
