Welcome to Victory Script, a world dedicated to reviewing the best and worst moments of anime and video games.

Victory Script - An Old Enemy Returns

Next up is quite a surprise from Episode 19 of Digimon 02 - An Old Enemy Returns.

Following on from the previous episode, the Digi-destined find the Emperor's fortress, Davis has to stay behind due to no land access while the others infiltrate the base along with Tentomon.
A dark whirlpool is seen by TK and Pegasusmon, what he sees is Ken obtaining Devimon's data, the thought of seeing Angemon's killer enrages TK so he splits to confront Ken directly.
Cody, Yolei and Kari are confronted by Kimeramon, the very creation Ken has been working on.
TK confronts Ken but TK just laughs at him and taunts him for his lack of understanding of the dark forces he's playing with, even shrugging off a whip to the face, followed by TK beating the ever loving crap out of Ken, it doesn't last long as Kimeramon runs rampant through the Digi-destined, Davis being useful for once uses the moving island to help his friends escape forcing the Digi-destined to re-group.
Ken assumes control of Kimeramon but it's not clear if he's really in control.
Three takeaways from this episode.
1. I'm reminded how useless Davis is, he's a poor substitute for Tai and TK really should've been the protagonist.
2. Speaking of which, this is the same TK who was too young in the previous season to make any kind of impact except as a last resort with Angemon, when did he become such a bad ass? It's a testament to his character how much he's evolved between seasons and how much his experiences have affected him as he's grown, his reaction to Ken and full on fist fight with him is one of the best moments in the franchise.
3. TK isn't the only anime character to beat the crap out of someone for making a chimera, isn't it Edward?
