Tai Kamiya

"You just picked on the wrong guys little sister, Mr. Fang-Face!"

"Never trust anything without feet!"

"Man, does everybody in the Digital World always have to be so noisy."

"Sure, let's go for a hike. Then after that we'll hike. And then we can hike some more."

"I have a foolproof plan: first, we eat something, then after that, I'm open to suggestions!"

"You da mon!" (to Agumon)

"When we get back, this is gonna make one great story. Yep, but, of course, not a single soul will ever believe me."

"Strange as it sounds, I wish Joe were here."

"Come back here, you puny toothpick!" (to Puppetmon)

"Oh, great. Maybe we get to paint the entire place." (about Piximon's home)

"Come back here and fight like a mon!"

"Whoa! Polly want a cracker? A really big cracker?!" -Young Tai (about Parrotmon)

"She's a kid. I'm her big brother. I'm supposed to look after her, protect her, and think of what's best for her. That's what I'm supposed to do!!" (about Kari)

"If one of us gets sick, we all get sick! That's teamwork too!"

"Whoa, no wonder they call him 'The Rocket', did you catch that move?" (about Ken)

"My mom won't be home for awhile. She's at a 'Cooking with Fungus' class."

"That's it, I'm gonna destroy him! ... Izzy, how do I destroy him?"

"Our dinners are probably cold and soggy by now. Of course, for my mom, that's an improvement!"

"Good thing we're in a hospital, 'cause it looks like we may need one!"

"Looks kind of like a radish." (about Yokomon)

"Wow, the Crest of Love, that's just perfect for you, Sora."

"Couldn't you have taken Joe instead?"

"It's just like riding a bicycle. Now start pedaling and digivolve!" (to Agumon)

"You're dealing with the new and improved Digi-Destined!" (to Apocalymon)

"We'll keep one eye on the Digital World, and one eye on the Real World, and the last eye on each other."

"You have to learn from your mistakes. I should now, I've made plenty of them." (to his younger self)

"Don't forget to wash your hands or claws, or whatever they are!" (to Agumon)

"So what am I supposed to do? Throw the digivice at the monsters and hope they get scared and run away?"

"You guy's talk more than my mom's book club."

"You 'da mon!"

"I've always dreamed of an entire world-wide army of DigiDestined, and I'm the leader!"

"I knew MaloMyotismon couldn't win that easily. The entire world is fighting against him."

"Way to go, WarGreymon. You're a regular one mon wrecking crew!"

"Let's do it, old school style!"

"I'm only doing this to honor all the brave Digimon that have helped us. They trusted us and believed in our commitment." (about fighting Matt)

"I have called you all here today because, well, there was nothing good on TV."

"The time has come for us to stop acting like a bunch of children."

"Give them the full Digimon attack!"

"Our adventure in the Digital World might be over for now, but that gate won't stay closed forever. I have a feeling that this won't be the last time we see our palls, the Digimon. One day that portal will open again and we will return to the Digital World. I wonder if Agumon will remember me? I know that I will never forget him, or the others. None of us will!"

"That's it! I'm gonna destroy him! Hey, Izzy, how do I destroy him?" (about Kimeramon)

"Oh, by the way, my name’s Tai. This is Sora. She’s okay... for a girl. And Matt. Matt’s too cool. Just look at that haircut. And this little kid is Izzy. He should have gone to computer camp. That’s Mimi. I’ll bet you can guess her favorite color on your first try. T.K. is Matt’s dopey little brother. Oh, and this is Joe. But don’t ever scare him, he’d probably wet his pants."

"They got... bigger..."

"This is one kooky, messed up world."

"So what are we suppose to do? Stand around here like a bunch of dorks?"

"Nobody runs away when I’m still talking!"

"If that’s true, then this is no time for us to be fighting."

"I’m so sorry. Can you all forgive me?"

"Why? ’Cause we’ve almost been eaten a hundred times!"

"I don’t know what to do when girls get all emotional!"

"I can't believe Sora's going to read my letter. Wait a minute... Unable to deliver? I CAN'T BELIEVE SHE'S NOT GOING READ MY LETTER! YOU TRY TO TELL A GIRL YOU'RE SORRY AND YOUR COMPUTER SHUTS YOU DOWN!" -Tai

"Matt's a little strange." -Tai

"Check out the genius. See? He's trying to call the telephone repairman because the telephones don't work." -Tai

"I felt something. I guess it was your love shinning through." (to Sora)

"Mimi, for somebody who hates hiking you sure have a lot of compasses. Of course, none of them actually work."

"Matt's just upset because he wants to be the boss."

"Ken has more than just skill. He leads his team like a general leads an army!"

"It's nice to see you focused, Matt!"

"It's good to be home."

"My friends are in danger because I can't get this piece of techno junk to work and I can't do anything about it!"

"I need you, Koromon! We can't win unless we fight as a team! Don't you give up now!"

"You can do it! And even if you can't, we won't think any less of you, man!" (to Davis)

"Listen, I don't have a whistle to wake you, but I want you to know you're not alone. Okay? And the mail keeps coming. It won't stop. Kids from all over the world are writing to you. You're the only one who can do it. Feel their hope! Feel their strength!" (to WarGreymon)

"Yeah. That's real inconspicuous." (to Agumon, wearing a coat)

"You're pretty brave, for a little guy." (to Koromon)

"You know, I'm beginning to take this whole Black Gear thing a little personally."

"Boy, you're a regular fountain of information, aren't you?" (to Gennai)

"A man must face himself before he can face his enemies."

"Whoa! Somebody's had a few too many donuts!" (about ShogunGekomon)

"After that, he might not wake up for another 300 years." (after he, Joe, Agumon, & Gomamon try to wake up ShogunGekomon)

"Hold on! Have you guys all gone crazy?! Who made me leader?!"

"We can't take you guys anywhere!" (after Koromon and Tsunomon try and attack a train)

"Junk. Stuff. More junk. More stuff. Man, I was a messy kid!" (trying to find his address book)

"Don't you worry. I'm gonna bring Mom and Dad back home safe and sound, and your little buddy Gatomon, too."

"Sounds like triple six is our unlucky number."

"Things just keep getting weirder."

"Next stop: the Digital World! Keep your arms and legs inside the ride at all times!"

"Well, I think your plot needs a few rewrites!" (to Piedmon)

"Hey, are you guys paddling or am I just talking to myself?"

"Come on, Kari! Don't you start losing it, too!"

"I'm not gonna let him break up this team. We're gonna find him whether he wants us to or not." (about Matt)

"I'm really getting tired of that sound."

"The time's come to stop acting like a bunch of children. We're facing the last of the Dark Masters. We don't know where he'll strike, or when, but it'll be somewhere close by... and soon. And he's strong, we know that. Real strong. This won't be just another fight. This one's for keeps. We got to be ready for him. All we've been doing is meeting each threat as it comes, barely holding on. Now we got to put it all together, as a team. That means Matt, Mimi, and Joe too. We've let enough Digimon sacrifice themselves for us. It's our turn now."

"I don't know about you, but I'm not ready to quit yet!"

"Then it's over! We actually won!"

"Heads up! Etemon at 9 o clock!"

"Yeah! Why don't you go tell Etemon your sad story cause were not interested!" (to Datamon)

"Oh wow, Koromon, this has got to be the happiest day of my life. I'm home! I'm home!! I'm home!!"

"Tai: Man, I am so full, I won't have to eat for at least a year."

"I won't disect frogs in Biology, okay?" (to the Gekomon & Otamamon)

"Agumon, your gonna eat those Dramon alive!"
[Agumon swallows a fish whole.]
"That's not what I had in mind."

"Wait a sec, if it is not the Dark Masters than who do we fight next?"

"Davis, I think you were really brave back there in that battle, but I notice that you broke your goggles. And, as we all know, the leader of the DigiDestined just wouldn't look right without them, so here. I want you to have mine."

"It's heavier than my mom's meat loaf."

"Kari's at a friend's house doing a science project on gravity, and they need to see how long I can stand on my head. See ya!"

"Our parents are waiting for us! The food's probably cold and soggy by now. Of course, for my mom, that's an improvement!"

"Even if Ken doesn't show, his teammates are still champions. If you're not careful, they'll use you as the soccer ball."

"Hold on, Agumon. I'll be there soon. Just a few more minutes. Oh! Integrate... quadratic...? It's like this stuff makes no sense!" (in class)

"If he continues to gain power like this, he'll threaten the entire Digital World!" (about the Digimon Emperor)

Koromon

"I don't think so! You missed what I did as WarGreymon! I sliced ya like an onion!!" (to Machinedramon)

"Excuse me, but what's a cousin?" (about Dwayne)

"If there is one thing that I truly love, I truly love this watermelon!"

"I'd like to get his gear together and throw him in the garbage can!" (about being called a dirty stuffed toy by Mr. Fujiwara)

"We kicked booty!"

Agumon

"Where are you going? I was going to make s'mores! Come back!" (to BlackWarGreymon)

"Digivolving is a very difficult process. In order to be successful, I had to share your energy."

"I feel the power!"

"So, this is what the internet looks like. They need new wallpaper."

"Even if your life is all fighting and struggle it could still have meaning. I had to fight all my life, but I believed in what I was fighting for. I think it’s that belief in not fighting that’s given my life meaning. Can you imagine the trouble Tai would get into without me?" (to BlackWarGreymon)

"Have you completely forgotten that it's not nice to lock people up in your dungeons?" (to Princess Mimi)

"You see, Tai? We go away for a couple of days and everything falls apart."

"What have you been eating out there in the forest? You wanna fight me?!" (to MetalGarurumon)

"No wonder this hospital's so clean! There's no sick people!"

Greymon

"I guess they don't make control spires like they used to."

"So, you like to fight two against one, eh? Nova Blast!" (to the Gazimon)

MetalGreymon

WarGreymon

"So much for your impenetrable crome digi-zoid armor. Looks to me like it got a little rusty."

Tai w/ his Digimon

"Agumon, digivolve to... Greymon! Greymon!! Yeah! I'm Greymon! I'm big and I'm bad!" -Agumon
"Agumon, your digivolve was a digi-dud." -Tai

"You know what, Tai?" -Agumon
"What?" -Tai
"You've really grown up." -Agumon

"I assume you have a backup plan?" -Tai
"Yes, RUN!" -Agumon

"Pick me up and throw me at him! If I can land on his back, I can vaporize that Black Gear with my Pepper Breath!" -Agumon
"I don't know if this is going to work, dude. I can barely lift you, much less throw you, Tubbymon!" -Tai

"Matt's got a bug up his nose!" -Tai
"Bug up the nose? That's a bad thing?" -Agumon

"I can go to the bathroom by myself." -Tai
"I don't mind keeping you company, Tai. It's dark and scary here." -Agumon
"For your information, I happen to like the dark. Stop treating me like a kid." -Tai
[In the bathroom, Agumon sits in a stall while Tai waits for him by the sinks]
"I should've known it was you who was afraid to go to the bathroom by yourself." -Tai
"Oh, Tai, don't be upset with me. I'm not afraid. I didn't really have to go to the bathroom, I just came along because I have to protect you." -Agumon
"Then what are you doing in there?" -Tai
"I don't want to even talk about it, Tai." -Agumon

"Then give me a diversion." -Agumon
"Hey, Shellmon! Ugly! Over here!" -Tai

"Koromon! Are you crazy?! Why'd you do it?" -Tai
"Sorry. It's just... I'm trying to make a good impression." -Koromon
"Crazy guy." -Tai

"Ahh! That is the last time I eat camp food!" -Tai
"Hey, you don't have to be afraid of me. I'm your friend! I'm your friend! I'm your friend!" -Koromon
"Uh, just what are you? Have you had your rabies shots?" -Tai
"Everything's going to be all right now, Tai. I've been waiting for you!" -Koromon
"Waiting for me?" -Tai
"My name's Koromon, and we're partners!" -Koromon
"Koromon? That means 'talking head'?" -Tai
"Hmph. It means 'brave little warrior', and don't forget it Tai!" -Koromon

"They don't make control spires like they used to!" -Greymon
"Way to go, Greymon! You're a one 'mon wrecking crew!" -Tai

"How did you know my card was the fake, Tai?" -Koromon
"I didn't. I kept your card because you're my friend." -Tai

[Tai returns home, but no one's there.]
"Maybe they went to DigiWorld!" -Koromon
"That's not funny!" -Tai

"You and I knew from the beginning that together we made an invincible team. Right, Tai?" -Agumon
"You got that right. Of course, I probably could've taken care of Etemon without you, but it was nice having you around. You did get me out of a few jams." -Tai

"Greymon, are you gonna be alright?" -Tai
"I'm stylin', dude!" -Greymon

"Agumon, who is that?" -Tai
"That's Devimon." -Agumon
"He looks bad." -Tai
"He is. This is the guy who invented the nightmare!" Agumon

"Agumon, we're back in business. Now we've to decide what are first move is." -Tai
"Well, we have to find our friends. Then, we have to make sure you and the others get home safely." -Agumon
"Not until we've conquered all the evil Digimon. Otherwise, neither one of our worlds will ever be saved." -Tai

"All those rooms? Your family's big!" -Koromon
"It's an apartment building. Lots of families live there." -Tai

"Well guys, this is it. What can I say?" -Tai
"Try "goodbye."" -Agumon

"I'm so happy to see you! Give me a great big hug!" -Tai
"Ouch!" -Agumon
"Are you okay? Did he hurt you?!" -Tai
"No, you were just squeezing my ribs too hard." -Agumon

"I'm sorry we attacked you, Agumon!" -Tai
"I'm sorry, too!" -Agumon
"I'm sorry that you're sorry!" -Tai
"Well, I'm sorry that you're sorry that I'm sorry!" -Agumon
"Tell you what, I won't be sorry anymore, and you don't be sorry either, okay?" -Tai
"Sorry!" -Agumon

"Where is everybody?" -Agumon
"Great, some welcome home!" -Tai
"This is right where we left them, where could have they've gone?" -Agumon

Manga Quotes

"Phew! I was sure we were goners back there. Someone help me restart my heart." -Tai (after falling off the cliff)

"Forget the phones, I'm starving. I burned off breakfast running for my life. Stupid broken phones... we could've ordered Chinese." -Tai

"Aw, he shrunk back down. I guess he can't be ridiculously powerful all the time. You saved my life, buddy! How can I repay you? I'll do everything but a teeth buffing." -Tai
"Tai... I want more!" -Agumon
"Chocolate again?" -Tai

"Oh no! Guys! Are you okay? Say something!" -Tai
"Meat... Potatoes... Chocolate..." -Agumon
"Sounds like Agumon’s fine." -Tai

"For crying out loud. Agumon, go to the bathroom by yourself." -Tai
"But Tai, I’m scared! It flushes really loud!" -Agumon
"I hope we never have to face an evil toilet Digi[mon]." -Tai

"That had been my problem-- I hadn’t understood what courage really was. Courage is never giving up-- even when things get tough-- and accepting the help of your friends. I’d been rash in the fight with Etemon; recklessness is stupid, courage isn’t!" -Tai

"We followed Izzy’s distress signal to the middle of the desert. And yes, I also wondered why the pyramid was upside-down." -Tai (narrating)

"Think again, Dorkula! That’s my baby sister you’re messing with. And her big brother has one nasty little temper!" -Tai (to Myotismon)

"You heard him, buddy. Ready to kick some sea monster tail?” -Tai
"You bet! As soon as I eat." -Agumon

"An evil walking house could be funny if we weren't about to die." -Tai (about Housemon)

"Apocalymon... Feel the power of the faith of children!” -WarGreymon

"It’s funny how things work out sometimes. When we’d first entered the DigiWorld we were scared and angry and ready to bolt. The only thing we could think about was getting home. But things change, right? Once we finally were able to leave none of us wanted to go. I’m sure we’ll see the Digimon again. Agumon has to see how wicked tall I’ve gotten. Gennai said there’d be DigiDestined after us to solve future DigiWorld problems. I wonder if those positions have been filled already? Because, y’know, I think I’d like to apply." -Tai
