Chiaki J. Konaka
After the success of "Digimon Adventure 02", Hiroyuki Kakudo and staff did not know what to do now that the series was finished. The team was satisfied with the release of "Digimon Tamers", as Kakudo believed the setting could have also been applied in the previous anime. Chiaki J. Konaka was concerned that the portrayal of the Digimon as "kind-hearted creatures" in "Digimon Adventure" and "Digimon Adventure 02" might affect the "monster-like spirit" of "Digimon"." As a result, Konaka wanted to explore the primitive nature of Digimon, where they instinctively harm other creatures to become stronger and would learn morals from their partners. This aspect would be primarily explored through Guilmon.
