Well, Davis. Hmmm, Davis, Davis, Davis? What do we have for him? Man nothing comes to mind. LOL! J/K.
Really though, Davis is actually one of my favorite digidestined besides T.K. and Kari and Tai. He's probably my 4th up there with Matt and Tai. Then there's Izzy and Joe, Sora and Mimi and then Yolie and Cody. Eh, I like them all. But I really do enjoy Davis and his antics.
Davis, though he comes out as being a whacko at times, he really does mean well. He may be good for a joke, but he's also a great guy and really is smart though he usually puts that aside being the jock he is.
I do say that his HUGE historic crush on Kari is going to go down as a big thing all their kids.
So, I don't hate Davis, he's actually one of my favorites. But I was never a big fan of Daikari, though I'm not entirely against it. Note: I did read DakariKingMykan's Power Rangers Digital fic, and I really did like it. (Don't hurt me LP (J/K: I'm know you wouldn't though)) Of course being the Takari fan I am I wanted to do a Digital Rangers fic as well and got his permission to use some of his ideas, but of course, me being a Dino-Thunder Ranger, it's a Dino-Thunder twist.
Okay, back to basics, I have more on him, but I'm too tired to think right now as it is 1:20 in the morning, LOL! Add more onto him if you'd like.

Daisuke's really not a people person... (Understatement alert)
He's fun. Not perfect but fun.

Haha. No he's not perfect that's for sure. But he doesn't seem to worry about many things.

He is a funny character, some times ( a lot of them XD) the comic relief, trying to impress Kari, competing with TK (Basketball match), learning on the march to be a good digidestined, a very carefree and happy go lucky guy.
Sadly what has stained more Davis' image have been his fans themselves, some die hard Davis fans in their fics give him so much power, change his personality to edges that you don't even recognize him, etc.
I ask, it is really necesary to change Davis' personality on a 180° turn to make him be who will save the day or win Kari's heart? I think not

There are things that are sad about his character and I understand why people do 'God mod' him. He didn't get Hikari. The dub treated him horribly. I don't think he really got the right guidness from Taichi... he's completly confused about his emotions. (I'm a future Daikari fan. Don't think you can really squeese something out of canon.)
However, I don't agree with what some people do at all. He's not an easy character to get the hang of and I do feel sorry for him... however, the best thing you could do for him (if he was real) is to accept him, understand him, and not patonise him by pretending he's some great hero.
Sorry, it's just that some author's really get up my nerves over that.

Yeah, I mean I don't say not to change him a bit as that he grows over the years but one thing is a development on his personality and a very different one is put him as the King of the Digidestined which I have seen that one used several times already o.o

I think that if you know a character really well you can mess around like that... but unfortunatly, few authors put in the work.

yeah though watching the subbed episodes from Funimation I realized that Davis isn't respected not even by his own father o.o
You see on episode 35 when Davis invited Ken to his house that also Kari and Yolei went there too later, when Davis introduced Ken to his family, Davis' father said "I beg you! Can you tutor my idiot son?"
I swear I almost fell of my chair laughing when I read that, and Davis father did called Davis idiot, since you can hear him saying the word baka which means idiot in japanese XD
And later you wonder why I say that Toei also bashed Davis on the series XD

I think everyone(including me) should cut him some slack. I mean he may not come off as bright, but he does have his moments.

He does indeed has his moments and I think that that scene shows more about his relationship with his parents than his intelligence.

Yeah but that your own father tells a friend of yours "Can you tutor my idiot son?" isn't something you would like to hear o.o

"Can you tutor my idiot son?" - From what I collect from this, his parents care about him. Although it is something you shouldn't say aloud in company, I think Daisuke's dad didn't mean it the way one would casually derive from his statement.
I won't mind if my parents did that to me, really; there are some subjects I find hard but my parents never even bother to ask me how my day went even if I look visibly harassed when I come home from school sometimes... Oh no, I've accidentally switched to "woe is me" mode. Think happy thoughts, Goggles. Happy thoughts...

lol! *gives goggles a hug* It's okay. Think about ice cream... To be honest I'm the other way around. My mom ask me about my day and stuff. I usually don't give her much of a response. *sighs* Oh no...now I'm doing it.....
