So five months to go until the next movie and this damn cat is still pretty much a mystery. I wanted to take a chance to look at some clues and details to create some theories of where this plot is going.

1- Symbol on Digivice- Many of the points that I’ll be making are based off of the recent interview the producers of Tri had where they dropped some ideas.

One point they made was the symbol on Meiko’s digivice has some kind of significance. This is probably a stretch but I see that there is a resemblance between the arms of the X on that symbol and the arms of the final foe of the original digidestined, Apocalymon.

Probably another reach, but the tips of Meicoomon’s tails even have a helix like pattern somewhat resembling the arms of Apocalymon.

2-Digiegg Match-Another point that was made was not only was the digiegg we witnessed at the beginning of Reunion Meicoomon’s but a point was made that it resembles Gatomon’s. Yes they’re both cats and both sustain the champion level, but why the resemblance specifically to Gatomon’s? Are they connected? If so, how?

3-The Dark Fragment- In that interview it was also explained that the single dark cube that fell into the digiegg had something to do with a villain from the original digidestined’s past. We know data isn’t deleted in the digital world but is simply recycled. I believe something hijacked Meicoomon’s egg and that something was what remained of a previous villain. I believe that villain is Apocalymon.

4-Why- So there is a connection between Gatomon and Meicoomon. Both cats, both sustain champion and I believe both represent opposite ends of the spectrum. Kari was possessed for the second time by a supernatural force that governs over the digital world. A force that works to preserve peace and life. She is the bearer of the crest of Light. In other words, life.

Meicoomon is possessed not by the infection but another force.If a previous evil made it’s way into Meicoomon’s digiegg it has to be a great evil that is able to nearly bring the digital world and the real world, and all worlds born from the Quantum Sea to extinction. Apocalymon is a force that wanted to see the end of everything, the destruction of all. The ultimate darkness. If Kari and Gatomon represent light, what if Meiko and Meicoomon represent darkness? Homeostasis seeks to preserve life and the digital world, and Apocalymon is the raw darkness wishing to end it...let’s not forget…Meicrackmon nearly succeeded when she reappeared.

5-Flashback- In the flashback we saw that Meiko met Meicoomon in the real world. We don’t know yet if and when Meiko visited to digital world but I did take note of Meiko’s age in the clip…We know she became digidestined around the same time as the other kids. However, what if, she became digidestined right after the kids defeated Apocalymon? This is neither here nor there since we really don’t know enough on this, but it is a thought.

6-Machindramon on the Cover- If the Digital World rebooted then that could give way for Machindramon, and the other dark masters, to reappear. Curious choice, especially if my theory is correct since Machindramon was one of the villains the digidestined had to destroy before reaching Apocalymon.

Thoughts?
