Fan:Takeru "T.K." Takaishi

This article details the relationships between Takeru "T.K." Takaishi and his fellow DigiDestined of Digimon Adventure/Digimon Adventure 02.

Taichi "Tai" Kamiya
T.K. begins to see Tai as an older brother figure in the same way he sees Matt but is unaware of the implications that Matt draws out of this. He sees Tai as a leader to the group.

Yamato "Matt" Ishida
T.K. sees Matt as a role model and follows his actions, looking to him for advice.

In 02 T.K. starts to realize the impact of his parents' divorce and feels that he should see Matt more often.

Sora Takenouchi
Sora is like T.K.'s older sister figure, and T.K. goes to her for anything more motherly.

Mimi Tachikawa
T.K. is interested in why Mimi has her strange quirks and tends to see her in a stereotypical sort of way.

Hikari "Kari" Kamiya
T.K. visibly spends a lot of time with Kari during both seasons, although it is clear both have fallen out of touch with each other during the years between. They seem to relate to each other the best throughout both series, both having a great deal of experience with Digimon.

According to T.K.'s character song "Focus", T.K. is curious how Kari perceives him.

Davis Motomiya
T.K. is usually amused by Davis's antics and accepts him as the nominal leader, even though he doesn't always agree with Davis. Whenever Davis shows himself to be too impulsive or does not show rational thinking, T.K. tends to act like his brother and will try to snap Davis back to his ideals.

Generally, however, T.K. can understand Davis's ideals and is more sympathetic towards him than Matt and Tai were.

Ken Ichijouji
T.K. at first is cold and bitter towards Ken and is disgusted at his ideas of "toying" with darkness; he manages to take Ken down in a stream of insults and logic, and manages to shock him so that he can fight Ken momentarily (even though Ken is a master at judo at that point).

T.K. is still, however, forgiving, and he is the first one after Davis to accept Ken into the group.
