Fan:Davis Motomiya

This article details the relationships between Davis Motomiya and his fellow DigiDestined of Digimon Adventure 02.

Taichi "Tai" Kamiya
Davis sees Tai as a role model in leadership, as he was the leader of the Older DigiDestined. He occasionally seeks Tai for advice, or rather is given advice from him.

The two also are on the same soccer team before the series starts, which may be another reason why Davis sees Tai so highly.

Yamato "Matt" Ishida
At the start of the season, due to Matt being T.K.'s older brother, Davis treated Matt more bitterly than the other DigiDestined of the older generation. In an early episode, Davis confesses that he sees older siblings as an annoyance, a viewpoint strongly influenced by his older sister, Jun Motomiya. This leads to Matt scolding at him briefly. However, Davis soon realizes his idea of siblings was wrong, as he sees that Matt and T.K. both respect each other well. Eventually, Davis begins to respect Matt nearly as much as Tai.

Takeru "T.K." Takaishi
Because of T.K.'s close relationship with Kari, Davis views him as a rival for Kari's "love" (or at least her attention and friendship) for most of the season.

He expresses his hatred toward T.K. by mispronouncing his name most of the time, usually calling him similar names such as "B.J". (In the original version, Davis refers to T.K. as "omae" in the first episode, which is a rude way to say "you" in Japanese; however, he also adds a name suffix at the end of it, indicating he confuses the word with his name.) In addition, he tries to keep T.K. and Kari apart as much as possible, and butts in on some of their conversations. He also sees some jealousy in Angemon and Angewomon's similarity, even asking Veemon if he had an angelic Digivolution.

As the season progresses however, this rivalry begins to fade, as Davis is more accepting of his teammates.

Hikari "Kari" Kamiya
Davis appears to be very interested in Kari throughout the season, implying that he may have a crush on her.

In the first episode of the season, he is glad that they are both in the same class again. However, his new classmate T.K. (at least in Davis's perspective)took Kari's interest the most, despite Kari and T.K. not seeing each other in years. Thus, Davis begins to view T.K. as a rival for Kari's attention.

In response to Davis's jealousy towards Kari and T.K.'s relationship, he tries to hang out with Kari more, and tries to keep the two from having a friendly conversation. Davis always agrees with Kari's opinion, and will do everything to protect her, similar to Tai from the previous season. However, this is more out of possessiveness than malice towards T.K. or any deep, beyond-superficial bond with Kari.

The idea of him having a crush on Kari is contradicted during the final battle against MaloMyotismon. Davis's true desire, as revealed by MaloMyotismon's ability, was to simply defeat the villain, and did not include Kari at all. This could lead to Davis and Kari's relationship as one where Davis is eternally thankful for Kari's friendship, or is at least possessive regarding keeping this friendship. It could be said that before meeting the Kamiya family, Davis had no friends due to his view of others. Thus, upon meeting Kari and Tai, he was thankful of being accepted by them, and tries his best to show his gratitude of this. It is also possible that with Kari talking more often to another friend, Davis feels "locked out of the loop" as a result, and wants to feel more involved with his friends.

Yolei Inoue
Davis views Yolei as sometimes loud and a "flirt", but has no big issues with her in general.

Strangely enough, when Willis flirts with Yolei briefly in Digimon: The Movie, Davis seemed quite disturbed.
