Their ages. This was pointed out in Adventure that you had to be 12 or under to be chosen for Adventure's continuity. The same applied in 02. The six older kids were 13+. Koushirou and Mimi just missed out by a year.

It appears to be like how the Tai/Sora angle was accidently created and Matt/Sora coming out of nowhere lost in translation literally. I understand now. However in no particular order.
|
Maybe it was subtly done. Who knows. I liked Taichi x Sora, but ironically, before starting 02, I started liking Yamato x Sora for some reason. I'm a fan of both pairings and the preference shifted with my mood.
I still feel that if Adventure had ended when it was intentionally supposed to have, maybe they would've focused a bit more on it.

1. It was messy trying to explain roles of Myotismon's pawns Ken and how these dark roots are a battery to resurrect Myotismon yet act more likea slowly developing super solider serum.
|
Ken was infected by the dark gear things after defeating Milleniumon with Ryo. Gane continuity, as Ken and Ryou are game characters from the Wonderswan games. I found a Wonderswan Color about 10 years ago along with the games they're featured in. Wish my mind wasn't hazy on the story though.
Seems they combined everything for 02's sake.

2. The exact role of the dark towers. Was it to keep anyone from Digivolving and how were those things constructed.
|
This was explained in the original, I just forgot why. lol. As for the construction, that is a good question.

3. The Dark Ocean. Where did come from and what was its exact role? Biggest dropped plot. Also, the shadowy villain from the Dark Ocean that swore he would get revenge on T.K. and Kari in particular.
|
It was Dagomon. That was the villain, wasn't it? I also don't recall him specifically wanting revenge in them though.
That aside, I understand how they foreshadowed the dark digital world stuff we see later, but yeah they should've brought Konaka back to do another ep.

4. Who created this Digi-armor once the Digimon of the Digi Destined were forced to go back to square one? Geni is the obvious anwer but it was never explained.
|
i thought it was in the original. I can't remember now, but I could've sworn this was explained during the Christmas eps...unless it was a game thing.

5. Was that Devimon of File Island in the whirlpool. Was he MarineDevimon and he was that easily absorbed?
|
You have a better memory if 02 than I do. I don't recall. Seems I recall character things more so than plot things.

6. What happened to the golden armor? It was a one time thing. After the Digimon did not have to worry about digivolution being blocked what happened to the digi-armor?
|
It became the physical representation if Ken's Crest of Kindness, didn't it?
The kids could still use their Digimentals, it just wasn't as necessary anymore since they didn't have to worry about their evolutions being blocked. You have to keep in mind that the show was based on and pulling elements from the games at the time, which included the card game. They were trying to introduce other evolution types and paths for the Digimon of the series.

7. Everyone knows about Digimon so everyone gets a partner? Whatever happen to selecting the best of the bunch of the then youth.
|
I could be remembering wrong, but I thought that everyone gradually became aware of them, not that everyone received one.

Neither season touched on the Digi Destined before Tai and gang.
|
Yeah, would've been nice to hear a story about them.

Myotismon surviving twice and somehow sidegrading to another Motis form? Was MaloMyotismon like SkullGreymon?
|
MaloMyotismon was his name? lol. I'll stick with BelialVamdemon. lol
That aside, I haven't any issue because every single Digimon have multiple evolutionary paths...like how Armadimoncan evolve to MegaSeadramon. There's a path for it which uses the armors and Jorgress evolving.
Take Imperialdramon for instance.
XV-mon + Stingmon can Jorgress evolve to either Imperialdramon or Dinobeemon. I personally would've preferred seeing Dinobeemon. It just shows that for that one XV-mon had the more dominating data...and they let the new kid for each pair have his/her Digimon dominate.
So yeah, getting BelialVamdemon in 02 as an alt didn't bother me much.
Oh yeah, that reminds me...02 was cut short because Adventure ran long. Adventure was originally supposed to have been 52 eps I think, but was 54, so they had to cut back on 02's eps.
Another issue with 02, imo, was trying to have so much in such a short amount if time.
