I don't think that's what's in dispute though, as much as how they're being treated by the narrative. I think Adventure made a bigger deal out of Hikari than they're making out of Mei now, though I may be wrong about that. We're getting close to like 4 years since I last saw Adventure, lol...

And yeah...at this point I'm basically using whatever pronouns whoever I'm talking to is using, because I really don't know. I tried to use "it" mostly, but some "he"'s slipped out...I mean yeah, probably it is female, since most partner Digimon are the same gender as the human, but then, not all are.

Then there's what's probably Meicoomon's Perfect level in the Kokuhaku poster, which notably does not seem to be sporting either titties or ass, which as we all know, are the definitive mark of a high-level female Digimon...And man, I wish I were joking about that. But no seriously, the fact that apparently it didn't evolve into SexyBoobsmon is legitimately why I am doubtful that it is a female Digimon. It just seems unrealistic. Then again, we have only gotten a blurry back shot...

But the flipside is that 02 showcased a world full of humans with Digimon partners (And I don't mean the epilogue), but with Tri now reverting the status back to "The general populous don't know about Digimon, and no one remembers seeing Imperialdramon Dragon Mode openly flying around the world to actively help other humans and their Digimon partners fight global menaces).

The changes they're making is why it's hard to accept Meicoomon and Mei.
I sound like a complete hypocrite since I said I'm not against basically deleting 02, but it's hard to accept 02's canon of multiple "Chosen children" while then acting as if Digimon are relative unknowns to the general public and Mei having a Digivice and partner is a shocking revelation...
I'm just conflicted on what to think, since it establishes that 02 clearly happened, but then it's acting like the last 10 or so episodes of 02 didn't occur...

As for Meicoomon not being Boobsdramon, keep in mind that Biyomon's final form is Houohmon, a giant bird, so even though they're changing Gatomon's Ultimate from Magnadramon to Ophanimon, not every "Female" Digimon is going to just be a stacked anime chick in stupid armor.
