Ken was not ment to be a Digidestined?

[Nate Hunter]

If you watch the episode when the D-Vice arrived at Ken's apartment him and his brother where both there. So how can we be 100% sure the D-Vice was ment for him?

I think that the D-Vice was ment for his brother, but when his brother died it had to choice a new owner and that was Ken.

So Ken (in my view) was never ment to be a Digidestined.

What are your views on this?

Let's see -- The Digivice reacted to Ken before Osamu died, taking him to the Digital World where he helped Ryou defeat Milleniumon and was then hit by a Dark Spore while saving Ryou from it. Wormmon recognized Ken as his partner, and had the emotional affinity for him that all of the Digimon have had for their partner. I do not believe this would have happened if the Digivice were meant to be Osamu's and not Ken's. This sort of theory can lead to the question "What if other kids had gotten the Digivices?", and "What if the Chosen Kids weren't supposed to get the Digivices?", and even "What if they found the wrong Eighth Child?".

If Ken was not meant to be a Chosen Child, the Crest of Kindness would not have reacted to him. He would never have reached the Digital World in the first place unless he was a Chosen Child, Osamu would have gone and helped Ryou dfefeat Milleniumon. Most importantly, if Ken was not meant to be a Chosen Child, he would not have been one in the show. The people who wrote the story knew what they were doing when that happened.

So I think we can indeed be "100% sure" that the Digivice Ken received was meant for him and only him through three simple facts.

1) The Digivice reacted to Ken before Osamu died. It did not react in any way to Osamu when he placed it in the drawer.

2) Wormmon recognized Ken as his partner and had feelings (deeper than most partner bonds, but feelings all the same) for him as such.

3) Ken was revealed as a Chosen Child during the course of the show, which he would not have been unless he was indeed meant to be a Chosen Child.
