Well, the initial scene is taken from the anime Bokurano where the boy is in love with the girl, but she is in love with her teacher, its the boys turn to pilot the robot from Bokurano(which kills the pilot after it wins a match, so he's feeling really depressed as he's going to die soon) its after this scene does the girl push the boy down the stairs and kills him. I think he tried to force himself on her(not too sure on this bit). So the implication here is that Daisuke loves Hikari, but she's gonna end up killing him because she loves some one else (TK)
I think that sort of covers it, its been a while since I watched Bokurano.

Actually, you're comparing this scene to the English dub of Digimon. It was confirmed in an interview released with the first Digimon Movie--before Adventure 02 was released--that Hikari has romantic and sexual interest in her older brother Taichi. The Japanese dub is about as explicit about this as you can get without outright using words like "Love," "Lust," or "Sex." The director/manager of the series used those words when talking about Hikari and Taichi during the interview, though.
In fact, there's a scene in the Japanese dub of Adventure 02 where TK attempts to confess to Hikari after getting frustrated by her obsession with her brother. It doesn't go well for him. She anticipates what he's about to say and gives him this look of repulsion. At which point, he dejectedly gives up on his crush on her and then walks away. Daisuke doesn't have any chance with her, either.
In the English dub, they censored scenes like the one mentioned above and then rewrote Hikari's dialogue to make it look like she has an interest in TK, but that's against the character that the main writer, director, and manager of the early Digimon series created for her.
Ending of 02 pretty much unraveled 99% of fan expectations and hopes of those who had actually managed to dedicate themselves to the series from start of first season, up until that point.
This underlying tone of brother/sister-fuckery shouldn't change much given the turnout of events, but hot damn, am I ever done with the franchise.
I know it's frowned upon, taking the daily busy life of the average Japanese citizen into a count, but fuck-me how they ever so often fail at Romance in printed and/or anime adaptations or generally have such a warped and distorted view of it. Like the two-by-two middle finger that was crammed up my anus, when I gave Honey & Clover a chance.

Is this part with the Dark Ocean? I remember watching it the first time, more than a decade ago. That look Hikari gave and that reaction from Takeru really struck me deep, but I don't understand it at the time. But then I grew up and I finally realized - that's the feeling when the dirty shipper within me just got heartbroken.
