Yoshino has done jack squat in these nine episodes, and Sunflowmon has been completely ineffective the very very few times she's been called on to do Anything. Even the first episode that actually was about Yoshino, with the one idol dude, ended up being more about Masaru, and in the end she was unable to do a single thing.
All kinds of bullshit, this is. Not even Izumi had it this bad, and Izumi had it pretty damn bad.
But, eh, I object to her treatment, but mostly on principle. If you can't even split focus in a matter even remotely resembling what one could call "equally" when there's
just three
main characters, you done fucked up somewhere.
On the other hand, I'm not really losing a lot of sleep crying about not seeing more of her. As a character, she's fairly uncompelling (though I may think this as a result of her dismal treatment; if we hadn't seen a few more sides to Touma by this point I probably would find him kind of a bore as well. They need to let her actually do something before I can start caring, and they haven't let her, at all), and I really do not like her voice--I guess her va was new or something? She's not very good. (i just looked it up, yoshino was like her only role ever. explains a lot. is not encouraging for my hopes of her possible eventual improvement though).
But eh, I can only hope this changes by the time Lilamon enters the picture. Which should be...episode 17? Man. And GeoGreymon evolves in 13? Jeez. Feels kinda early for Perfects to start showing up. Though looking it up I guess Tamers had them pretty early too. Guess I'm stuck thinking in Adventure terms. Guess it makes sense since they have to fit in not only the Ultimates but Burst Mode too for all of them...
Don't hold your breath for Yoshino and Lalamon to actually do anything. You'll end up suffocating.
I think part of what made Tamers seem like it waited a long time to introduce the Perfects was the fact that they used Evolution, especially early on, in general very sparingly. I think its noteworthy that while Growmon evolved into MegaloGrowmon in Episode 14, a mere 6 episodes after we saw Growmon for the first time, that was actually the first time we saw Growmon since his first appearance. Growmon was absent for 5 whole episodes and the episode after his first appearance he didn't even fight! Then after that we didn't see MegaloGrowmon again for another 6 episodes. Likewise Dukemon was missing for a good 9 episodes after his first appearance. Plus, like in Adventure, the existence of a new evolution didn't mean that you never saw the old evolutions again. Growmon didn't stop appearing once MegaloGrowmon appeared, in fact he only evolved in dire situations. Similarly in Adventure, MetalGreymon wasn't completely forgotten about once WarGreymon hit the scene.
The same can not be said for Savers. GeoGreymon appeared in (I'm fairly confident on this) every single episode since episode one and once RiseGreymon appears you
never
see just GeoGreymon again. The evolution sequences in Tamers are designed to follow each other straight away with no cutaway so from the first time GeoGreymon evolves Agumon goes straight into RiseGreymon, skipping GeoGreymon. Heck, in the dub they even called it "Warp Digivolve" because GeoGreymon is never seen again.
