LAST UPDATED: November 4, 2015

¤ SEASON ONE ¤



Episode 2: The Birth of Greymon / Explosive Evolution! Greymon

Taichi says he sees the ocean and goes off towards it. Before the others follow, Yamato turns to Sora. In the English dub he cracks a sarcastic joke, while in the Japanese version he asks her if they should follow.

Matt: Huh, let's water-ski home.  

Sora: Ugh, funny.
- English Dub

Yamato: Should we go?

Sora: Yeah.
- Japanese Version




Episode 3: Garurumon / The Blue Wolf! Garurumon

Yamato swims towards the island where the others are being attacked by Seadramon.  

Yamato: Hey, Takeru!

Sora: Yamato-kun!

Takeru: Big Brother!
- Japanese Version


Episode 4: Biyomon Gets Firepower / Red Hot! Birdramon

:bulletred:   Piyomon is confused with some of the words Sora uses. The group ends up walking ahead as Sora tries to brush it off. Yamato tells them to stop fooling around, causing Sora to get defensive.

Piyomon: I'm perfectly happy anywhere as long as Sora is there!

Sora: That can't be... Even if you're 100% happy, it'll be troublesome for me. I can't be held responsible.

Piyomon: "100%"?

Sora: N-never mind, don't worry about it!

Piyomon: "Be held responsible"?

Sora: I said never mind, don't worry about it.

Piyomon: I want to know more about what you're talking about, Sora! Tell me! Ok?

Sora: You don't need to know that

Yamato: [while the group is walking away] Stop playing around, you two.

Taichi: [to Yamato] You’re so relaxed.

Sora: I'm not playing around because I want to!
- Japanese Version

:bulletred:    Piyomon's energetic personality annoys Sora. When she hurts Piyomon's feelings she quickly tries to make up for it, thus making Piyomon happy again. This is the first time we see Yamato smile as he watches the two's exchange.

Piyomon: Sora~ Sora! Let's keep walking!

Sora: You're so energetic.

Piyomon: [singing] Sora! Sora!

Sora: Oh, just cut it out! Right now, I’m really thirsty, tired, and I’m sick of walking, so stop clinging to me! It’s making me even more tired!

Piyomon: Sora is tired... I'm sorry. I'll keep quiet.

Sora: Fine, fine! You can walk with me.

Piyomon: I'm so happy! Sora, I love you!

Yamato: [after watching the duo and smiling] But man, we keep walking and walking, and nothing comes into sight. Maybe it's best we go back to the forest.
- Japanese Version

:bulletred:    As Meramon is rampaging through the village, everyone tries to board the ship with Piyomon at the end making sure everyone is safe. Sora realizes she's missing and rushes to get her. Taichi and Yamato notice and eagerly call her to come back.

Sora: That idiot... she's helping out her friends instead... Piyomon!

Taichi: Sora, what's wrong?

Yamato: Come back, Sora!
- Japanese Version


Episode 8: Evil Shows His Face / Devimon, the Agent of Darkness!

**DEBATABLE**
If you listen carefully to this clip, you may hear the same thing I hear. Jump to 02:00.

When the team is ready for bed Sora says goodnight to the others while Yamato says goodnight to Sora. Taichi's voice overlaps Yamato, saying, "goodnight girls".

Sora: Good night guys!

Matt: Good night, Sora!

Tai: Good night girls!
- English Dub

In the Japanese version, this dialogue does not happen.


Episode 26: Sora’s Crest Of Love / Radiant Wings! Garudamon

:bulletred:    When Sora runs away from the group, it is Yamato and Taichi who immediately run after her. Taichi cuts her off, and when she attempts to run the other way, Yamato stops her.

Yamato: Why are you running away?

Taichi: Explain yourself, Sora!

Yamato: [Notices Sora's down expression] Sora...
- Japanese Version

:bulletred:    Although Taichi means well, he is oblivious of Sora's feelings and cracks a joke. Yamato tells him to quit it.

Taichi: I don't understand this at all! Man, girls are so much trouble.

Yamato: Don't make fun of her, Taichi.

Taichi: I'm just kidding!
- Japanese Version

Tai: I don't get it. Why is it that girls have to get so emotional when it comes to love?

Matt: Leave her alone, Tai.

Tai: I was just joking around!
- English Dub

:bulletred:    Yamato is quiet for most of the scene, but it is clear that he is listening to what Sora has to say. He is sympathetic with her emotions, and understands what Sora needs.

Taichi: Hey, don't cry! H-hey, Yamato... What should I do?

Yamato: If she wants to cry, then let her.

Agumon: Yamato is so mature.

Gabumon: Well, more than Taichi anyway.
- Japanese Version

Tai: Wait, wait! Don't cry! Sora! Matt, help me out! I don't know what to do when she starts blubbering!

Matt: Just let her go, Tai. She'll be okay.

Agumon: Wow, Matt's just like a real grown-up!
- English Dub

:bulletred:    At the end of the epsiode, Yamato becomes the narrator and states something interesting.

Matt: So, Sora joined up with us again, and we were closer than ever!
- English Dub

:bulletred: In the Japanese version when Sora explains she understands her mother's feelings, Yamato is in the background playing a cheerful tune with his harmonica. This is the only time Yamato plays a cheerful version of his harmonica theme. Although episode 26 is Sora-centered, Yamato's theme is used at the end.

Thank you to Azurerinn for pointing this out



Episode 36: City Under Siege / Break through the Barrier! Zudomon Spark!

Phantomon captures Yamato in his chains, and even though Sora is no match for him, she still tries to save Yamato.

Sora: [charges with a stick] Yamato!!
- Japanese Version


Sora: [charges with a stick] Leave him alone!
- English Dub


Episode 37: Wizardmon’s Gift / Perfects's United Attack! Sparkling Angewomon

:bulletred:    Hikari has been captured by Phantomon and Yamato is angry with himself for letting everyone down. Sora successfully knocks some sense into him.

Sora: It's not your fault.

Matt: Yes it is! I blew it! Tai asked me to protect her and I couldn't! I let everyone down!

Sora: All right Matt, it seems to me there are two things you can do about this. Number one, you can stand there and beat yourself up about the whole thing, or number two, we can find a way to rescue Kari! What's it gonna be?

Matt: You're right. Let's get her.
- English Dub

:bulletred:    It has been said that the Digimons only evolve when their partner needs help, or when they want them to. Right after Sora is almost killed by Snimon, Yamato's crest immediately glows and Garurumon evolves to Weregarurumon. Instead of Garudamon, it is Weregarurumon who battles Snimon.



Episode 45: The Ultimate Clash / The Clashing Ultimates! WarGreymon VS MetalGarurumon

:bulletred:    When Yamato tells the group he wants to leave, Sora tries to give other options instead of letting him go by himself.  

Sora: Here's a good idea. Let's break up into two groups instead of one big one.

Matt: I'm sorry... but I really need to do this alone.
- English Dub

:bulletred:    Yamato makes his decision to split with the others. Sora shows support by saying she believes in him. Particularly in the Japanese version, Sora promises to take care of Takeru in Yamato's place. Also in the Japanese Version, Yamato acknowledges Sora's help by thanking her.

Sora: Oh. Well, I believe in you, and I'm not going to stand in your way.

T.K.: What am I supposed to do without you, Matt?

Matt: You're a big kid now. You can take care of yourself, T.K.

T.K.: Yeah, but...

Sora: Don't worry, we'll be here for you. Besides, you know how big brothers are, they need their own space. Everything will be fine

Matt: Well see ya. Good bye, everyone.
- English Dub

Sora: I believe you can handle it yourself, I trust you, Yamato.  

Takeru: What am I supposed to do without you, Yamato?

Yamato: You're a big kid now. You can take care of yourself, Takeru.

Takeru.: Yeah, but...

Sora: Your brother wants to find his own path. Let him go then, Takeru. I will take care of you.

Yamato: Thanks Sora.
- Japanese Version


Episode 47: Ogremon's Honor / Oh Wind! Oh Light! SaberLeomon

:bulletred:    When Yamato and MetalGarurumon saves the others by killing Puppetmon, Sora runs over and acknowledges them. Yamato glances over at Sora, but then looks away before walking off and leaving again.

Sora: [Runs towards Yamato and MetalGarurumon] Yamato-kun!
- Japanese Version
  

Episode 51: The Crest OF Friendship / The Hellish Clown, Piemon

:bulletred:    With the help of Jyou, Yamato is able to save Sora from the Dark Cave.




¤ SEASON TWO ¤



Episode 38: A Very Digi Christmas / Holy Night: All Digimon Gather Together

The famous scene that either makes fans or antis of our dear Sora Takenouchi.

Sora's crush on Yamato is revealed when she plans to give Yamato homemade cookies at his concert. Still nervous, she is trying to build up the courage to enter Yamato's dressing room. And speaking of Courage, Taichi and Agumon comes along. More notably in the Japanese version, Taichi is more of a friendly support for Sora, and encourages her to give the cookies to Yamato. Whilst in the English Dub, it is evident that Taichi has a crush on Sora.

Piyomon: Come on, Sora... Why are you stopping here?

Sora: Because...

Taichi: Sora, what you doing here?

Sora: Taichi!

Gabumon: Wow! I smell something good!

Agumon: What is it?

Taichi: Is that for Yamato?

Sora: Yeah...

Taichi: What? Something homemade?

Sora: Does it really matter?

Gabumon: Aren't you coming inside?

Piyomon: Sora has been hesitating for awhile here.

Sora: Hey, Piyomon!

Taichi: You'd better go give it to him now! It's going to start.

Sora: [Blushes more} Uh... Alright...

Taichi: [Gives Sora a push] Come on! Hurry up!

Sora: But...

Agumon: If you don't want it, we're gonna eat it!

Sora: [Smiles] Alright, I'm going.

Taichi: Good luck, Sora.

Agumon: Taichi...

Taichi: Huh?

Agumon: You've grown up.

Taichi: Baka! (You idiot!)
- Japanese Version
  
Sora: Wow, this is exciting! People are already lining up for Matt's concert!

Biyomon: Don't worry, Sora, we'll be sure to get good seats! Especially after you bring him those homemade cookies!

Sora: I hope.

Tai: Sora! Wait up!

Sora: Oh, Tai!

Agumon: Something smells good!

Gabumon: Matt's busy getting ready. But I'll take those to him! Mmm!

Biyomon: Oh, no you won't! You'll eat the whole thing yourself!

Gabumon: Why, I resent that! I'm on a diet!

Tai: So, Sora? Are you going to the concert with anyone? Not that it matters... just wondering.

Sora: No. I want to be available in case Matt's free afterwards. Hmm.

Tai: Oh, I see. Matt, huh?

Sora: Yeah.

Tai: It's okay.

Sora: You're not mad at me, Tai?

Tai: Of course not. Now get in there, and say 'Hi' to Matt for me.

Sora: Thanks, Tai.

Agumon: The least you could do is leave us the cookies!

Sora: Tell you What. I'll make some special ones for you.

Tai: I'll be waiting. Thanks.

Agumon: You know What, Tai?

Tai: What?

Agumon: You've really grown up!
- English Dub

Episode 42: Digimon World Tour: Part 3 / Love and Borscht-- The Fierce Fight

Daisuke suggests it's time to head home, but Sora and Miyako protest. In the English Dub, Sora exclaims Yuri was suppose to take them out to dinner, causing Yamato to notice. In the Japanese Version, Yuri is not mentioned, but Yamato still notices Sora's eagerness to eat Russian food.   

Sora: But Yuri was taking us out to dinner!

Matt: [Scratches head] Yuri?
- English Dub

Daisuke: Now we just need to pick up Hikari-chan and Koushirou-san in Hong Kong and go home.

Miyako: Go home?

Ken: It's past 5pm on December 25th in Japan, so we should go back.

Miyako: What about the borscht? And the piroshki?

Daisuke: You can find that in Japan.

Sora: But we wanted to try the real thing!

Yamato: [Scratches head] Sora, you too?
- Japanese Version


Episode 43: Invasion of the Daemon Corps / Attack of the Demon Corps

:bulletred:    In the English Dub, Yamato gives the synopsis of what happened in the last episode. Towards the end, he says Sora and Miyako were sad to leave because Yuri was going to treat them to Russian food. He adds: "Should I be jealous?"

NOTE:In the Japanese Version, the characters do not give synopsis of previous episodes, therefore this comment does not happen.


:bulletred:    During the scene where the News is reporting missing elementary children, Yamato and Sora are talking to each other on the phone.

:bulletred:    When Sora, Yamato, Hikari, and Miyako are being carried on Garudamon's hand, Yamato and Sora are together with Yamato's arm around Sora.  



Episode 45: The Dark Gate / The Gate of Darkness

Jun tells Daisuke she is moving on from Yamato to Jyou's older brother, because she saw Yamato with Sora. A flashback scene shows Yamato rushing to protect Sora from falling debris.

Davis: Wait a second, I thought you were in love with Matt, you wouldn't stop bugging me about him, Jun. What's going on with you?

Jun: Matt's history.

Davis: Huh?

Jun: I... I saw him with another woman. It was at Matt's concert when that big, disgusting monster burst into the auditorium. In all that chaos, I was waiting for Matt to save me, but instead he went right to her, Sora!
- English Dub

Davis:I though you only had eyes for Yamato-san...

Jun: I'm over him.

Davis: Huh?

Jun: I mean, I saw that... [Flashback of Yamato running to Sora's rescue during the attack at the concert]
- Japanese Version


Episode 48: Oikawa's Shame / Terror: BelialVamdemon

Sora teams up with Taichi and Agumon to spy on Noriko, while Yamato and the rest are spying on the other Dark Spor children. In the English Dub, Koushiro directly asks Yamato if he trusts Sora and Taichi together, which Yamato makes clear that he does. However in the Japanese version, rather than play with Taiora possibilities, Yamato explains why Taichi is with Sora-- because he has Agumon. (Gabumon and Piyomon are not around.)

Takeru: [Joins Yamato and the group] Where are Taichi-san and Sora-san?

Armadillomon: Taichi went with Sora to watch the girl from yesterday.

Koushiro: Are you really sure you didn't have to go?

Yamato: If something happened, I'd be useless. Taichi's with Augumon, so he's the right one to go.
- Japanese Version

Izzy: Does it bother you that Sora is with Tai instead of you?

Matt: Come on, Tai's my best friend and he knows how I feel. Besides, I completely trust Sora. I'm not worried at all, Izzy.
- English Dub



¤ DIGIMON MOVIE: DIABOROMON STRIKES BACK ¤



:bulletred:    In Yamato's movie profile, it states that Sora and Yamato are boyfriend and girlfriend in the movie. One part translates to: "His band is doing well and he's now the boyfriend of the close friend Sora."
(provided by xrebelsheep)

:bulletred:    There is the photo of Yamato and Sora going around the net. In the original Japanese screenshot, the two are in front of a club, either possibly on a date at night or shopping together in the daytime.

:bulletred:    When everyone is together (minus Sora, Mimi, and Jyou), Koushiro asks Yamato about Sora. It seems he's the only one who knows of Sora's whereabouts.

Koushiro: And Sora-san is...?

Yamato: Tennis club, she's on her way now.
- Japanese Version

Based on this, we can assume Yamato has recently contacted Sora since he knows she's on her way.




¤ DRAMA CD - MICHI e no ARMOUR SHINKA ¤



:bulletred:    The cover for this 02 Drama CD has Yamato with his arms around Sora. They are smiling and looking at what Yamato is pointing at.

:bulletred:    In this Drama CD, it's Valentine's Day (two months after the defeat of MaloMyotismon) and Sora plans to buy "Honmei Choco" for Yamato. Honmei Choco is a special type of chocolate that a girl gives a boy they have romantic feelings for on Valentine's Day.  It is Sora's way to profess her feelings for Yamato.  But in the process, she, Hikari and Mimi are held hostage by Boltmon, a confused Digimon who only wants a heart of its own (like the Tin Man in "Wizard of Oz").

Although I have yet to find a decent translation of the Drama, this is what I found:

:pointr:   Sora explains she still has shopping to do, in which Piyomon ends up reveling Sora wants to buy Honmei Choco. This causes the other girls to gossip about Sora and Yamato's relationship. Sora is oblivious of this as she continues to look around and talk while everyone else is too busy gossiping  lol.

:pointr:    After realizing what is going on, Sora gets irritated and tells them to stop talking about them. She starts punching the air in frustration and hits Boltmon by accident.

:pointr:    Later on in the drama when Boltmon starts attacking the store, the girls realize their Digimons can't digivolve. In the midst, Sora's phone rings and Yamato's dad is on the phone. He explains he got her number from Yamato, and was hoping if she could interview Boltmon.  

:pointr:    Afterwards, Sora tries to bargain with Boltmon to let them go in exchange for the Honmei Choco she bought for Yamato. Piyomon is surprised and reminds her that they are for Yamato, but Sora tells her that Yamato will understand since their lives are at risk.

:pointr:    In hopes to save the girls, Yamato proposes that they tap-dance to distract Boltmon while Daisuke sneaks inside.

:pointr:    When the girls hear the boys tap dancing, Taichi call out to Hikari asking if she's ok. Piyomon tells Sora that Yamato is also there.

:pointr:    It is here during the tap-dance that Yamato declares his feelings for Sora.  He yells out: "Sora! I love you!" ("Sora! Aishiteru!" in Japanese)

:pointr:    Shocked, Sora goes into a frenzy while Piyomon tries to snap her out of it. But instead of concentrating on Yamato's professed love for her, she is instead confused as to why the boys are tap-dancing when everyone is in danger.
You can here the Japanese audio clip [here]. Just fast forward to 0:50.

To openly express romantic love is rare in the Japanese culture, so this may be the cause for why Sora is confused and freaking out lol... It's quite an amusing clip xD.  



¤ 25 Years Later... ¤



All grown up, Sora becomes a famous fashion designer and Yamato is an astronaut. They are married with two children-- one girl with Yamato's blond hair and one younger boy with Sora's red hair.




¤ THE DIGIMON ADVENTURE NOVEL ¤


The Digimon Adventures Novel is the official novel version of the Anime, written by Digimon's Director Hiroyuki Kakudou and Screenwriter Hiro Masaki. To read the English translated version, go HERE


NOVEL ONE:

Chapter 2 | Section 2 -The Deceptive Mansion

Taichi recalls how he had no idea Yamato had a younger brother. It is hinted that Sora may have already known that Yamato and Takeru were brothers prior to their adventure in the Digital World. Although Yamato and Taichi were classmates, Taichi was not as familiar with Yamato as Sora was.

Taichi: Wait a minute. I think I once asked someone if Yamato had siblings, but they dodged the question. Was it Sora?


Chapter 3 | Section 3 - Access

Throughout the novel, both Sora and Yamato are constantly looking out for Taichi.  Whenever Taichi and Augumon are in a jam, Sora and Yamato are the first to notice and come to his rescue.  Even despite Taichi and Yamato having personality conflicts, Yamato willingly puts himself in danger to drag Taichi out of it.  And as Taichi's best friend, Sora is the one who also tries to console Taichi when he is upset with himself.

After Taichi puts Augumon in danger by evolving him to SkullGraymon, he is less confident in himself and falls into depression for a short while.  But when an opportunity arrives to go search for the mysterious Nanomon who has been contacting Koushiro through e-mail, Taichi is the first to agree to it.  And to Sora's surprise, Yamato follows suit. Because Sora is aware of Yamato and Taichi's conflicting personalities, she is confused as to why Yamato would agree to such a dangerous mission. In response, Yamato tells Sora that he also wants Taichi to have more confidence in himself.  

Later on, Sora’s curiosity got the better of her and she asked Yamato, “Why did you agree?”

“Taichi’s showing some motivation at last. I just couldn’t shoot that down,” Yamato replied with a whisper. It appeared that even Yamato wanted Taichi to return to his old self.



¤ EXTRA ¤



:bulletred:    Digimon Producer Seki Hiromi confirms Sorato in the Japanese Digimon magazine called "V-Jump". In a 2002 issue, he states that Sora and Yamato are definitely married.

:bulletred:    If we put the Season 02 character portraits in order (from Taichi, Yamato, Sora, Koushiro, etc.), Yamato and Sora are looking at each other. They are the only characters with eyes looking in opposite directions.

:bulletred:    The final poster of Digimon Adventure 02 has Yamato with his arm around Sora

:new::bulletred:    In the Tokyopop Manga version of Digimon Zero Two, Daisuke announces Sora and Yamato's marriage in the epilogue.

:bulletred:    In "Digimon Adventure Character File" (the official Japanese Character Book), Yamato and Gabumon mention Sora and their children.

Gabumon: We've gotta go back to Earth first! It's your kids' first day of school, isn't it?

Yamato: Oh! You're right! If I'm late, Sora'll be mad at me. We've gotta hurry!
