Digimon Universe Opening 2 is talking about the characters
So hereās something interesting I found while listening to the full version of Digimon Universe opening 2. Iām a bit surprised it took me until this long after the shows conclusion to notice this, but the lyrics in the song are actually talking about Haru, Eri, Astra, and Rei! See for yourself.
The young boy that I was back then, Iāve now surpassed
Leaving two sets of footprints in our wake
Anyone can become a protagonist if they hope for it
The accelerating heartbeat is proof of your newfound story
Haruās portion of the song is obvious as heās the main character. It also references Haruās dream throughout the series of becoming a protagonist.
You were the girl from that day that stayed looking down
Trying to form a smile
For whomever wishes to be a protagonist, the center of the stars
Even if you take off your glass shoes, you can still shine
These lines are also obviously talking about Eri for multiple reasons. First off, it talks about a girl trying to form is smile which fits with her applidrive question,Ā āDo you want to make somebody smile?ā. Her reason to become an idol and really her major goal in the series is to make people smile. Another eye catching thing about these lines is,Ā āFor whomever wishes to be a protagonist, the center of the starsā. Eriās title as an appliyama idol is that she isĀ āthe center of the universe.ā
Next is about Astra which is probably the least subtle.
Do what you want to do. Yeah, every BUDDY
Either a Hi-Fi or a break down. No choice, No life
Iām feelinā the playlist. High-Time, now
Itās time to get chance, got it?!
Not only do these lines fit with Astraās character and personality, it also uses a number of his and musimonās quotes from the show. āYeah, every BUDDYā A quote Astra sometimes says when he and Entermon are going to deliver the finishing blow on an opponent.Ā āNo choice, No Lifeā similar to Musimonās catchphrase, āNo Musimon, No lifeā, and lastly,Ā āIām feelinā the playlistā, another quote very often said by Astra and Musimon.
Lastly, we have lines possibly dedicated to Rei. I say possibly because these lines arenāt as obvious as the others and may have no real connection to him as he isnāt part of the main trio, but I thought Iād share them anyway.
There are no bonds that donāt have scars
Memories are hidden under the bandages
The reason they take the shape of a thread is because theyāre tied together
Whenever I count with my fingers what is important to me
I realize they are all little things, but it still dazzles me
The memories hidden under the bandages could very well be about Reiās past and Hajime, and the earlier line,Ā āthere are no bonds that donāt have scarsā may be talking about theirĀ āuniqueā relationship compared to the rest of the applidrivers and their appmon.
The last couple lines also appear to fit Reiās character as, unlike the others, he has very little to fight for to begin with
