Question did Disney own Digimon back in the 2000's

If there was one thing I hated it was that DUMB INTRO SONG. Did it ever get better 2020 remake and fusion don't count.

They drained everything from the scenes they were in and were practically the annoying comic relief side characters nobody wants around. And they NEVER shut up.

+ with all the links, jsut wait for them to load it takes a sec for it to load up the images!

This is all a opinion I have/ a speculation, this may not be a direct reference to this charachter I am going to mention, but I just wanted to share my thoughts on this and see if anyone else see's them too. I'm not shaming and saying its copying him, I'm just wondering if this is a reference to it.

Literaly i stumbled upon this watching a video about the fandom, I am not part of it i was simply watching for fun, execpt for when i saw a specific Digimon, just Myotismon( uh this bruh to be exact not jus this like in general too the digimon in its art and such https://digimon.fandom.com/wiki/Myotismon_(Adventure)#MaloMyotismon ) , just me being here was a bit unsettled with the similarity, or well MASSIVE

similarity to another charachter (please ignore my awful spelling im bad at spelling), thus you may know, aka that one being Dio Brando, from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure : Phantom Blood and Jojo's Bizarre Adventure : Stardust Crusaders. I couldnt just help notice the insane jsut, similarities between the two, and couldnt settle that it may of been just a possibility they were similar.

I'll list similarities that I noticed looking into it.

1. The pointed bangs it has and hairstyle, its almost directly similarly styled in the way Dio has them, both in the original 1987 Manga of Phantom Blood, styled with pointed bangs ( shiloh you idiot you forgot abt stardust crusaders DIO with his razor sharp bang points ) , nearly similar but just much thinner compared to Dio's but still nearly the same + the fact with it being such a similar shade of blonde to Dio's blonde hair.

Refrence as in that via images from the manga and a refrence sheet that is very similar to his manga design, via photos from the wiki as I was using my knowledge from reading it. V

The somewhat "seducive' tone of the charachter when speaking, as shown with it talking and reading in its wiki article ish kinda, or well speicifcaly shown in a video on Digimon, having the similar seducive tone to Dio's personality in Phantom Blood (not to be confused with Stardust Crusaders DIO, though it could be a refrence with him too as he was seducive, as SDC was completed when the show was running it seems, as around 1998-2001 when this show seemed to be showing or made, SDC was already completed. ) Acting in a similar way aswell as he would which jsut kinda stood out to me. Its hard to explain with this as you'd have to know or of read the manga of Phantom Blood or Stardust Crusaders, or the DP Phantom Blood anime,which protrays him exactly how he is in the manga.

The designs, though its a bit harder to tell and is a bit odd saying it as though im refrencing the lost 2008 Phantom Blood OVA, but it still seems similar in a way ish to his Phantom Blood outfit, as in being a mostly one peice outfit, with dots/button things lining the chest, though not having on the legs as PB Dio had, but with similar almost, but on the waist aswell, i may jsut be going too heavily off the 2008 Phantom Blood OVA DIo, tohugh that was from 2008, and this was likely earlier than that, but still not predating JJBA's life.The wrist-parts though diffrent are almost similar in a way to how it is on PB Manga Dio's outfit, though not having the same designs but eerily similar. With also the beltloops it has on its waist, similar to Stardust Crusaders DIO's outfit, with the beltloops aswell, beign connected to a heart on DIO's, but hte digimon a bat symbol, but in a similar fasion almost.

Refrences for this :

A Gore Warning for this image as its a bit graphic

This has to do with a bit of a flashback but still a signifact part of his charachter, the mask is the Digimon has, being similar in that to a mask Dio wore in P1, getting the poision to poision George Joestar, though sadly i cannot find an image of this to link up here, but but its a very very similar style to that Dio wore. This one isnt as much but still very similar

I did browse through some other wiki articles on episodes, though a bit rushing almost ish, but still painstakingly seeing art of the Digimon being so, so so similar to Dio's design, and alot of refrences to him it feels. If anyone just notices a similarity please try to message me on my discord, by just sending a request and ill likely accept if you want to say something as im not very social on here sadly! ( My disc is DIOPS3#0885 ). This is all I think a refrence to his charachter, and I just want to simply say, if you got this far through my ramblings just thank you, im just an idiot named shiloh who is a massive dio kinnie and just loves man, and this just was something i wanted to see if anyone saw too though ill not likely run into any other JJBA fans. just yeah rhbufdihb

I don’t know if anyone has watched the end credits of the episodes but I saw this anyone want explain this
