(Don't) Wake Me Up If I'm Dreaming
THIS
No matter how much evidence is thrown in my face, a part of me STILL CAN'T BELIEVE this is actually happening. How much more proof do I need? Is this poster enough?? I don't know?!?
I do know that I'm in love with it, though. I really, really, really like the designs. I mean, they somehow MANAGED to find a compromise for Taichi's hair -- It looks like it could exist in real life, but it STILL LOOKS LIKE TAICHI'S HAIR. Why does Mimi have the same school uniform as the others? Did she move back to Japan? Why on earth do they all apparently ATTEND the same high school? :| Will the next poster feature a tonado of Digimon falling through the atmosphere? (Maybe that's what Hikari is looking at?? XD) Why did they have to make me fall BACK in love with Taichi (IF ONLY 12-YEAR-OLD ME COULD HAVE KNOWN)?? Will there be new Character Songs?? What will the theme song be like?? SO MANY QUESTIONS. I think this means my subconscious is finally buying into it. IT'S REAL. IT'S HAPPENING. AND IT LOOKS BEAUTIFUL, HOLY CRAP.
Oh, but there ARE a few answers, concerning the staff: http://en.rocketnews24.com/2014/12/14/character-images-of-new-digimon-adventure-series-released-expected-to-air-in-spring-2015/
I'm not familiar with these names, but I'm pleased that the character designer is the same as for Oreimo, which is similarly quite pleasing to look at -- No wonder! ^__^
One other thing I have to comment on: I think we can all safely assume that we (adults) are in the target age group this time around. Anyone who watched the original back in its day would have to be (*counts*) OLD by now. ;) ;) And they're aiming this at us!!! How will this be different, I wonder? Good? Bad? (I'm not really worried. Right now, I'm optimistic that they are going to treat these characters with appropriate reverence.)
Okay, so TECHNICALLY, I was still in the appropriate age bracket -- at the very upper end -- in 1999, but I continued to spend years and years living in this world...welllllll beyond that. I just KNEW there was something special about these characters that I couldn't let go of. They spoke to me at age 12...14...17, 20, 25...and beyond...and sometimes I began to wonder about myself. Do I feel some amount of vindication today? Mmmmayyyybeeeee. ;D
