** However, toher people see it as a good deviation, since it led to the digidestined strategizing more and actually ''figthing temeslevs'' insetad of others doing for them. That's why the TakeThat lower on the page exists, the writers may have wanted to make the human children less passive.

* TakeThat: Episode 40 may have been one at the previous 3 seasons, where the biggest problem with the four new kids is that they always let Angemon do the fighting for them (and unlike the digidestined from those seasons, they don't even contribute with encouragement or card-swiping). Tommy's TheRasonYouSuckSpeech could have easily been directed at the season 1-2 digidestined (season 3 might escape due to said card swiping, actually strategizing, and the bio-evolutions at the end).

This has always scared me whenever I saw it, the end of Episode 49. I still shudder when I see on my tv. No way that wasn\'t intended to scare people.

**[[spoiler:"YOU MUST CHOOSE TO FOLLOW ME OR BE DESTROYED"]] or [[spoiler:"Follow me or die. Which will you choose?" And then in big Japanese font just the word "Choose."]] at the end of Episode 49 in the English dub and subbed versions. And for more chills, think about it: every screen in Shibuya and probably the rest of the world says one of those messages depending on the version...[[FridgeHorror AND THEN YOUR TV SAYS IT AT THE END.]] [[spoiler:Lucemon is warning YOU, THE VIEWER. They make you believe for a second that Lucemon has entered OUR WORLD AND IS TAKING IT OVER WITH ABSOLUTELY NO EFFORT.]] [[ItGotWorse It gets worse]] when in the dub, HE ACTUALLY SAYS IT. And in the voice of what sounds like Terriormon from Tamers with a slit throat!

Instead of pulling a [[DigimonSavers Keenan Crier]] and making one up out of whole cloth, they chose "Yutaka." Not only is this an actual Japanese name, it's an anagram of [[TheHero Takuya]], alluding to the deep friendship between him and Tomoki -- Tomoki even calls Takuya "big brother."
