Ken has been explained in Digimon lore already, but it's complicated and related some weird stuff with Japan-only video games. In particular, there were four Digimon video games created for the WonderSwan console (a Japan-only console). The four WonderSwan games have Ryo Akiyama as a main character (which makes things even more complicated), but the middle two of these four games also give backstory to Ken. Essentially, Ryo is a character originally from the Digimon Adventure universe. Below, I'll try to summarize the plot enough to understand how Ken is involved in all this and how Ryo, a character from the Adventure universe, ended up getting to the Tamers universe. But I have never played the games myself; I have only read summaries, so it's possible I will get things wrong. In the first of the four games (Digimon Adventure: Anode/Cathode Tamer), Machinedramon from Digimon Adventure is somehow able to survive and fuse with Kimeramon to become Millenniummon, who is the main antagonist of all four of the WonderSwan games. The Digimon Adventure digidestined are brought to the Digital World to fight Millenniummon but are captured. Ryo gets called into the Digital World, defeats Millenniummon, and sets everyone free. (But Millenniummon doesn't actually die.) In the second game (Digimon Adventure 02: Tag Tamers), Ryo and Ken Ichijouji are friends and visiting each other and both witnessed Diaboromon on the internet. They get a call from Veemon (the same one which would _later_ become Davis's partner) saying that there is a Diaboromon in the Digital World which needs to be destroyed, so both Ryo and Ken go to the Digital World to fight it, but it turns out the Diaboromon is a fake created by Millenniummon to trick Ryo into getting back into the Digital World. Millenniummon splits the Digital World in two, separating Ryo and Ken. Ryo teams up with Veemon, and Ken meets Wormmon. They sort of tag-team throughout the game until they are able to reunite and fight Millenniummon, who has turned into Moon-Millenniummon. As Moon-Millenniummon is being defeated, Moon-Millenniummon releases dark spores to attack Ryo, but Ken notices and gets in the way, taking the dark spore himself, which eventually leads to him becoming the Digimon Emperor, after Oikawa prods him. (So no, Oikawa didn't make the dark spore, but he used Ken's infection with the dark spore to get him to go to the Dark Ocean and become the Digimon Emperor.) And if you go back to 02 episodes, you will find a flashback where Ken and Wormmon are with Ryo. That is essentially the explanation of Ken from the WonderSwan games. In the third WonderSwan game, Ryo once again has to fight Moon-Millenniummon, and Moon-Millenniummon causes a giant explosion, which sends both Millenniummon and Ryo to another universe. The fourth game explains some more about Ryo and ZeedMillenniummon's battle through space and time (the new form of ZeedMillenniummon being the new form of Millenniummon). At the end of the game, Ryo goes to the Tamers universe. (The fourth game has a horribly complicated and detailed plot, which I'm not going into.) So all of this is a convoluted hot mess. But it kind of explains Ken's backstory in a way that is somewhat inconsistent and somewhat consistent with the Digimon Adventure and 02 anime, along with the movies. There is a website called "Yesterday: Wonderswan Games" which is devoted to being an English resource for people interested in these four Digimon WonderSwan games, if you want more details about them. The games don't even explain Ken's crest, though, as far as I am aware, so maybe this lore doesn't satisfy you about Ken. But all of the WonderSwan and 02 lore is a mess anyway, so I guess it's to be expected.

Fun fact! Daemon was originally planned to be Devimon from the original Digimon Adventure! Lorewise he's also far more powerful than MaloMyotismon, in fact...if we're going by the lore, Daemon is THE most powerful enemy digimon encountered throughout the entirety of Digimon Adventure and Digimon Adventure 02. I WOULD say he was the second strongest, second only to Millenniumon, but he only had a cameo in 02 so I wouldn't count him

Zero Two has some massive continuity errors from Adventure such as Tai being able to enter to digital world at the beginning of the series despite not having a D3 and the gate to it being sealed otherwise. Or when they made up a backstory for why the Adventure cast couldn't digivolve into ultimate was because they sacrificed the crests to restore the digital world; despite the fact that in Adventure Apocalymon destroyed the crests and it was later revealed that the crests were effectively a placebo the entire time. The reason for all these errors was because Zero Two began production before Adventure finished and they were constantly cycling through different writers, directors, and producers; which is also the reason why many story arcs were made and than never resolved. Zero Two behind the scenes was just an absolute mess.

I think it was great. It kept it fresh without powering them up sequentially, raising the bar and overshadowing prior dogivolutions. They then had multiple to pick from depending on the situation. Later on they relied more on fusions because they were just stronger. And yeah they were sick but resulted in the classic power system I mentioned above.

I know that 02 has had some bad reviews over the years, but its still one of my favourites: Diferent methods of digivolving, villans with a backstory, continuity with season 1,... They went in all directions with this one, from the emperor's arc to blackwargreymon, to travelling around the world, fighting an actual human villan... It has its problems in terms of writing, but it was also full of interesting ideas and callbacks.

I often wanted to know why people gave 02 crap. It didn't have a lot of the things the first did, and I get that. But it expanded on the original series. Was it perfect? No. I wish they expanded on the Dark Ocean more and we didn't have to wait until Tri. But it did a good job nonetheless. I'm going to have to set aside some time to watch them again, that series was a lot of fun. Even if it was edited heavily.

One of the main reasons why Toei got Chiaki J. Konaka to become the head writer of Digimon Tamers was because of his contributions to Zero Two where he wrote the Dark Ocean episode as well as the Daemon Core episodes. He really wanted to work on the next series because of his ideas in Zero Two getting snubbed, so Toei relented and let him be the head of the next project.

He also used his time powers to bring Apoclymon into the Digital World, so he could create Machinedramon. Meanwhile he also used his time powers to persuade Ken into creating Kimeramon.

@@Pridam Yes. I like to consider Millenniummon a time zombie since it can also bring itself back to life even accross dimensions (which is how we get to ZeedMillenniummon). I think this is called a "bootstrap paradox"? Basically Millenniummon imserted itself into the time stream by sending a piece of itself back to the past in order to assure its own existence. Just like what Fry did on Futurama. By the way, have you ever wondered why is it that Digimon Kaiser wanted a virus MetalGreymon specifically? That's because it supposedly has an easier time evolving into Mugendramon, which he needed in order to jogress with Kimeramon and thus revive Millenniummon.

Davis and Ken are my favorite characters in the whole digimon series. The evolution of Ken from villian to friend was excellent. And the way Davis guided him back to the light was powerful. The overarching story wasn't as good as season 1 and season 3 had the best plot by far. But I still say the most interesting story elements and character evolution can still be found in season 2. And im so pumped for the new movie coming this summer to have Davis and Ken find a way to bring the digimon back to our world!

@@aerostrafe1075 I never really saw the spore as being the thing that turned Ken evil. Though I do understand where you are coming from. The spore only fed off his negative emotions and intensified them, while giving him new powers in the process. The fact that the spore was still inside Ken when he turned good again says everything. It went dormant because he overcame his darkness. Also it never bloomed like the copies did in the other kids. Meaning it didn't make Ken do anything. If it had, it would have tried to take him over when he was starting to become good again. And Ken took full responsibility for his actions and made amends for them. That's a whole lot more than I have ever gotten from a ton of other shows over the years.

Oikawa and Hiroki in a nutshell. Act 1: Oikawa: This world took my friend away from me. I'm going to waste my time having Ken being a Digimon Emperor. If that doesn't work then I create dark spires. If that doesn't work I will have Mummymon and Archnemon fuse 100 dark spires to create BlackWarGreymon and have him blow destiny stones up. If that didn't work then I have dark spires grow in the real world to bring in many Digimons for no explanations needed. If that didn't work then I'll just capture Ken and copy his dark spores and put them in other children.......... ......Hey wait a second! Why didn't I do that already!? This would have saved me a lot of time instead of stretching the season with pointless shit! Act 2: Oikawa enters the Digital World. Oikawa: Well finally... Suddenly a giant red beetle flew in and swop Oikawa up into the sky Oikawa: "AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH" Why didn't I not come prepared!!?? Oikawa got cut in half Act 3: Oikawa: I hate earth because Hiroki died. I'm going to a Digital World which is not any better then Earth teeming with danger and not thinking of what could happen if we did go to the Digital World and Hiroki got killed there instead Act 4: Kid Hiroki and Oikawa enters the Digital World. Oikawa and Hiroki: We did it! We are finally here! A moment later we see Oikawa and Hiroki chased by a giant red beetle screaming. Hiroki and Oikawa: We wanna go home!!!! Mommy! Act 5: Oikawa: I wanna go to the Digital World just to see it... Iroi: Lame. You really don't have any plans nor are you even prepared for this. This makes you look ignorant and foolish. Comecc on Oikawa, your just being depressed and angry. Oikawa: Shut up you brat! Act 6: Oikawa: I finally arrived in the Digital World! I'm so happy! After a while Oikawa begins to feel depressed again, he tries to explore the Digital World but his heart remains empty. He could not figure out what to do. Thanks to his clinical depression he quickly got bored and went back to Earth. Act 7: Adult Oikawa and Hiroki finally arrived in the Digital World. Oikawa: We did it Hiroki! We finally... Before he could finish his sentence, without warning a giant flat foot of a giant Digimon stomped Hiroki with a swift pound, killing him. Blood splattered everywhere even on Oikawa. He then gave an sour look. Oikawa: Suddenly I hate this world and going back to Earth. Goes back to Earth in tears. Act 8: Oikawa: I want to go to the Digital World... Iroi: Why? Oikawa: Because I want too. Iroi: What are you going to do there? Oikawa: I...don't know.... Iroi: If you and my dad successfully entered the Digital World having your dreams filful your dreams and both of you came back and dad died shortly afterwards, will you still go crazy? Oikawa: Iroi, could you not ask me these silly questions please? Act 9: Oikawa: You know instead of wasting time fighting with the chosen children, can't we just negotiate with them despite being shy and lonely which is no excuse of this? Mummymon and Archnemon: Well dur. Later Oikawa is with Daisuke, Miyako, Ken, Hikari, Taichi, Jou, Koushiro, Sora, Takeru and Iroi at front of the computer. Oikawa: Please don't mind my creepy looks, just please help me enter the Digital World. Daisuke: K, let's go. Act 10: Oikawa: God! Why is Archnemon and Mummymon has to be complete failure! If they can't do there jobs fighting off measly Digidestined, I guess I gotta do this instead! Oikawa puts more of his blood to create more Digimon and sticks 100 digimon at the Digidestined; defeating them. Oikawa: There Dammit! Just break the fucking barrier!!! Act 11: *What Oikaw would have done if he enters the Digital World* Oikawa is seeing laying flat on his back sun bathing, squinting his eyes and his mouth opened a little. Oikawa: So what I'm I gonna do now? Where should I find food? How will I interact with the Digimons? Should I touch them and..........

I feel like every series gets darker and darker as time goes on, but 02 is still the only series that gets me to consistently cry with everything relating to both Black WarGreymon and Oikawa. Those flashbacks to Oikawa visiting the grave, and when the 01 world colliding event happened. The ending where Cody is desperately trying to get him into the Digital World where his own Partner Digimon has been waiting for him but he dies. The part where Cody's Grandpa regrets not having reached out to Oikawa sooner, and admitting that he'd enjoy speaking with someone close to his son so they could reminisce together. Like, a lot of drama and darkness in Digimon series afterwards feel way too fake, or overdone, and not fake not in the sense that they're impossible, but improbable and yet somehow still cliche. Oooh, divorced parents angst, ooh siblings with unequal attention angst, oooh twins separated at birth and then the one of them who found out the truth about the other fucking DIES and his spirit is sent into the Digital World, oooh bastard father issues, oooh cowardice and jealousy leading to madness and developing tools to murder Digimon in such a way that DigiEggs cannot form and they've fed all the data to revive the literal beast form of the devil and through that ignorance and cowardice the literal God of the Digital World calls for the destruction of humanity. Only Oikawa's story in 02 really pulls on my heartstrings in such a way because it's such an innocent reason and not an overdone trope at all. Like, they weren't secretly gay lovers for the controversy, it wasn't an obsessive one-sided relationship, there wasn't anything that felt unrealistic about all parties involved including how Cody's grandfather reacted to what he believed to be a bad influence. These two boys formed a friendship, discovered the Digital World, grew up close and had dreams, one of them tragically died and the other was stricken by gried and taken advantage of by the spirit of Myotismon. And Black WarGreymon's story IS a bit more cliche, the "monster" who resents and laments and questions his creation and existence, feeling like an outcast in the world because of the circumstances of his birth, only to realize that the actions you take, and what you do with the gift of life are what determine one's worth and cement one's existence. Also, the dark and edgy, brooding character who has been seen as an antagonist the entire time, selflessly, and instinctively sacrificing their own life for the protection of another. But God damn if it didn't come off so perfectly and SO EARLY on in the franchise as a whole.

I think my biggest problem with 02 is that it is forgettable. In college I did a rewatch of 01, and watched through 02 and Tamers for the first time. I had a decent time with 02, but I barely remember any of it other than snippets. Meanwhile, I can remember character arcs, villains, plot progression, and individual episodes from 01 and Tamers.

Any of the things that stood out in 02 normally fumbled the bag at some point which causes it to be forgettable. I rewatch it every few months or turn it on as white noise on hulu. I remember everything as episodes start but outside of that my mind is a blank. The lack of direction just hurts it too much. That and the new kids are not that interesting. You can like em but there isn't much to Davis, Yolei, or Cody. Cody probably being the one with the most intrigue there but his backstory doesn't do much for his character.

The Ryo from Tamers saved Cody during an earlier visit to the Digital World, before he came across Cyberdramon. There are flaws with these headcanons, but I think they're the only way that 02 and Tamers can be on the same timeline.

I think the third one of Ryo's games firmly establishes that the Adventure universe and the Tamers universe are separate, and at the end of the game, Ryo chooses to go to the Tamers universe instead. He has one more game which has an opportunity for him to go back home, but he is angry at how he was treated in the game, so he chooses to stay in the Tamers 'verse.

Ngl, 02 has always been my favorite digimon season! On a objective level, I understand that Tamers is the best season of all lol but 02 has always meant so much to me. Every character makes so happy to see. Ken's villain arc and redemption has stayed with me since I first saw it when I was a kid. I can't understand the people who say it was forgettable! Even after Ken's arc, it was really nice to see how the others tried to fit him in and Daisuke's unwillingness to give up on Ken really spoke to me. I'm currently in the process of rewatching all four of the main seasons (Adventure, 02, Tamers, and Frontier) and I'm halfway through 02 as im making this comment and I am loving it as much as I did as I was younger, now at the age of 22. In general, I love Adventure so so much. I even cried in the finale of adventure haha. But Daisuke, Ken, Iori, Miyako, older Takeru and older Hikari just are so much more fun of a group to me. Frankly, I think 02 is an upgrade in storywriting than Adventure was. Adventure very much felt like a kids show at times, but really solidified its writing style towards the end. Meanwhile, 02 had the good storywriting from the beginning. I really do love this series so much ;w; 02 is so special to me.

I liked 02 and honestly its my favorite series. Them being able to go back and forth makes sense. They've done this before and it shows growth by mastering the thing they couldn't before. The epilogue was actually something I genuinely liked and still do. They went through so much so they deserved their happily ever afters. NGL random pairing of Matt and Sora and even more random career choices were dumb but not enough to really ruin it. Only true issue I have is Kari didn't end up with Davis. Her ending up with a random guy while Davis and even TK ended up with random women wasn't bad either. No one wins the shipping war! Lol. More importantly all 3 of them ended up happily married with kids, and isn't that what's truly important?

You know, the Dark Ocean really does not get enough lore behind it, alongside Dragomon, despite how incredible it is when you tie it to the Digimon Emperor. The idea that this realm of the Digital World is where dark thoughts manifest and that the Dark Towers and Dark Rings that Ken created as the Digimon Emperor are nothing more than constructs harnessing the power of the Dark Ocean shows a neat aspect of how the human mind and life works. Similar to how I spoke of the Digital World is similar to Persona's "collective unconsciousness" in the Tamers vid, then the Dark Ocean is also representative of humanity. If Digivolutions are meant to represent the light and potential of humanity, what the Dark Towers do in impeding Digivolutions is represent humanity's stagnation, the darkness that keeps them from ever realizing their potential.

I believe that you forgot to mention when the Digidestined from 01 and 02 came together to pay respects for the memory of Wizardmon. I loved that one. What happened to that part of the recap?

02 was my favorite as a kid. Probably not as much now. But I loved it then. ETA: The ending-villian should have been something related to the dark ocean and dark world. This was the original ending.

Noticing the flaws in 02, here's what would've been like in my opinion. Had Ken and Sam already joined the original DigiDestined from the beginning, they would've had better adventures together with their old and new friends. In 02, Davis and Yolei would've been the first new DigiDestined to enter the Digital World, meeting up with Veemon and Hawkmon together respectively. For me, the DNA Digivolution Jogress duos would've consisted of T.K./Kari, Ken/Cody, Willis/Meiko, and Davis/Yolei. Had Digimon crossed over with the animated Disney films and PIXAR's Toy Story, the main villains would've included Captain Hook, Jafar, Hades, Ursula, Electra, Emperor Zurg, Dr. Frankenstein, Oogie Boogie, and Maleficent. The Digimon Emperor and Ken would've been two separate characters, the Digimon Emperor would've been the co-ringleader with Maleficent with Dr. Frankenstein as the main inventor. Had Oikawa remained good and Cody's father survived, things would've been better for both of them. These are hints of my what-if scenarios for Digimon Adventure 02.

I love some of the extra context that you can get around the Digimon Emperor plot if you're aware of Ken's semi-secret backstory in the Ryo Wonderswan game that Ken featured in. It's obvious that the Dark Spore was responsible for Ken acting so evil and becoming the Digimon Emperor. But was it really just Ken's ambition that led to the creation of Kimeramon...? Think for a moment about that Dark Spore's origin. It was launched by Milleniummon upon his defeat by Ken and Ryo. Milleniummon is a DNA/Jogress Digivolution of Machinedramon... and a Kimeramon. Was Ken just being an evil genius? Or was he subconsciously being led to try to recreate Milleniummon? And was it _really_ Devimon's influence that kept him from controlling it? It's obviously the implication presented in the anime, but when you know the backstory, it becomes... a bit less certain.| EDIT: It's also worth noting that when Ken initially saves Cody immediately following his turning away from the Emperor shtick, the big reason nobody trusts him is because he saves Cody, then turns around and has Stingmon kill the Thundermon. The problem is that nobody except Ken knows that it's not a "real" digimon, but one of the spires/towers transformed. It's Patamon's revelation about Golemon later that makes them realize that Thundermon was probably the same thing and that Ken isn't just a murderer, and may have ACTUALLY changed.

Dude, Digi-Destined would be ideal deep space explorers. Any big issue pops up? Hop into the digital world. Crash on an alien world and get stuck there? Well, go ahead and hop back to earth through the digital world.

I agree, Cidney. It’s difficult as an adult to rewatch 02 due to the plot holes. As a kid it was obvious too but much more tolerable as for children a shows overall plot isnt really a big focus in the grand scheme of things ~Ray~

Loving the videos man. You do really good work and im proud of you for covering these gems with such depth and dedication. You rock man. I loved the whole series although i didnt get to watch them all. You covering them fills a hole i always had. Im currently playing digimon world 3. Anway you rock man. Keep it up. You should make videos on the games! But skip digimon world 2. Its absolutely the worst
