Memorable Quotes
Boku-tachi no mirai wa, boku-tachi ga kimerun da! Momentai!
— Terriermon
Context:
This is a recurring line and philosophy for Terriermon throughout the series, often said to Henry to encourage him to be less anxious and more proactive. It's his signature catchphrase that balances his easy-going nature with his resolve.
Meaning:
Translated as "We decide our own future! Momentai!" (Momentai means 'take it easy'). This quote encapsulates Terriermon's laid-back yet determined personality. It reflects the series' broader theme of agency and the idea that destiny is not predetermined, but something to be actively shaped, even in the face of overwhelming odds.
It was wrong of me to believe feeling nothing was better than feeling sad. The sadness was real, it was human! ... We all have our own destiny... You can't delete even one of us without deleting something the whole world needs!
— Jeri Katou
Context:
Spoken in Episode 50, "Jeri Fights Back," while she is trapped within the D-Reaper's core. The D-Reaper has been feeding on her despair over Leomon's death, but in this moment, she finds the strength to fight back against its influence, asserting her will to live and feel.
Meaning:
This powerful declaration marks Jeri's emotional climax, where she rejects the D-Reaper's nihilistic offer of a world without pain. She embraces her grief as a fundamental part of her humanity and affirms the intrinsic value and purpose of every individual's existence. It's a profound statement on the importance of emotion and the human condition.
This isn't a game anymore.
— Rika Nonaka
Context:
This sentiment is expressed as the threats from wild Digimon escalate in Shinjuku. Rika begins to see the destruction and danger as more than just points in a game, forcing her to re-evaluate her entire philosophy on what it means to be a Tamer.
Meaning:
This line signifies Rika's critical shift in perspective. Having previously treated Digimon battles as a competitive game to be won, she finally understands the life-and-death stakes and the real-world consequences of their fights. It marks her transition from a cold-hearted competitor to a responsible Tamer who understands the gravity of their situation.
