Ahh... Diplomatic as ever, it appears... Actually, I guess I should tell you how it all began:
I stared up at the ceiling one night, as I always to when my ideas hit me. I began thinking about how... unusual the pairings we give the characters of digimon really were. Thus, I decided to hunt down a guy for the single most ignored female character in Digimon: Hikari. I decided to make a couple that noone would expect, yet, when looked at logically, might be worked out. After going through each characters weaknesses, I ended up with Joe.My reasons why?
1: Firstly, it's a fact that these two are actually
quite similar. Not only that, but their weaknesses overlap with eachother's
strengths.
2: Don't understand what I mean? Well, for example,
Hikari has a major weakness; a weak immune system, which makes her more
vulnerable to diseases. What does this have to do with Joe? It looks like
Joe's going to become a doctor in the future.
3: As another example, It's a known fact that
Joe's a major pessimist. Well, Hikari has that factor that convinces people
that they can survive just about anything.
4: Worried about Hikari being possessed? Joe can
deal with that. His Buddhist sutras seem to be quite effective against
disembodied creatures.
5: Hmm... have to think of one more about how
Hikari can help Joe... Well, I'm half asleep right now, so that might explain
why I can't think of one.
Now, as you can see, each of their strengths compliment the other's weaknesses. Of course, there's still the age problem, but that isn't NEARLY as bad as it seems. The fact is, Hikari's actually 8 or 9 years old, I forget which. In other words, there's only about a 3 or 4 year difference in age. In these days, there are 48 year olds marrying 24 year olds. Suddenly, the age gap doesn't seem to be nearly as bad, does it?
Of course, my final reason why to build a website like this is a question within itself: Why not?
