Well, I'll chime in my 2 cents and disagree with you both.
Masaru is pretty cool in my opinion. He's a straight up tribute to all the stubborn, relentless Goggle boys, and his will to never fail is a great trait to have in the team. He is of course the brawn of the team. The brains obviously are Touma and I think his deductive and analytical skills are awesome. They are the perfect team up too, they both are solid in their decisions and once they can work as a unit will be a solid team. Yoshino has not really appeared enought action wise to solidify her part as the team "guardian." With the description they gave of her when Savers was being promoted I expected her to be a little more protective of the boys, and she really has done nothing yet, which I'm sure will change in time, after all we are only 5 episodes in...Overall I think its a solid group of Savers and it's a great series so far.
The reason they are knocked around is because when they are hit by Masaru, he released his DigiSoul which physically manifests itself during a fight, such as the damage it does to a Digimon when he produces DigiSoul with a punch.
He fought Touma because he felt Touma was disrespecting him. Touma told the DATS leader that Masaru wasn't worthy of being a DATS agent and Masaru wanted to prove to him that he was indeed worth something. (By the way, the fight ends in a tie, I thought Masaru lost until I saw the Sub). And as for the responsibility of having a partner, when you watch the subs you'll realize that Agumon is all about finding and defeating strong enemies, just like Masaru likes to. So they are working together to fight strong enemies, right now I don't think Masaru sees the bigger picture about helping everyone, he just wants to fight. I'm sure that will change soon...most likely with information about his father.
Watch the Subs, you'll understand everything very well.
C'mon Wise, its a friggin cartoon. Plus, there are Digimon running around the world...what shouldn't be able to happen?[/quote]

Quote:Why he ended up having that fight with the other character in the boxing ring remains a mystery to me. Speaking of him, I think he's looking at this whole responsibility of having a digimon partner the wrong way.
