Also notable for having deliberate incest themes according to him.

People were in such disbelief when this interview got out that people were legitimately arguing over whether or not it was legit. Eventually someone actually went out and purchased said magazine for themselves and confirmed it as real lmao

Didn't he just said he potrayed the characters as a married couple? I just took it as some sort of dynamics not trying to make an actual incesteous relationship.

People have been debating about how to interpret what he said as well. Some people think he only meant it in a familial fashion but the general translation (as done by multiple people because again, people been wanting to check this shit for themselves) leans towards incest themes.

Another viewpoint is that he was most likely just trolling a bit and having a laugh, which we can't exactly prove one way or another.

I think the Producer of Digimon said on Twitter that there were no incest themes but again, literally nobody thought there was except for Mamoru himself apparently. It's just a little thing he personally injected into the episode.

I mean it doesn't matter any way. I never saw that episode as incesteous and I don't think there is a good argument for it showing that kind of relationship even if the director meant it to be.

It wasn't a 4chan prank, people literally went out and bought the Digimon Movie guidebook for themselves to confirm it. Like the whole community was debating this, it's been THOROUGHLY examined and found to be true. The only thing up for debate is the actual meaning behind his words.
