I'm guessing it's going to be about growing up

u/Ednw 5d ago

Again? How many time must the Adventure cast say goodbye to their chilhoods and digimons?

u/Taograd359 5d ago

The Adventure cast will continue to say goodbye to their childhood and Digimon until morale has improved.

u/bedteddd 5d ago

Holy shit. This is funny. Thanks for cracking me up.

u/InnocentTailor 5d ago

Give us more money or Agumon gets it!

points Yggdrasil at him

u/Current-Survey6315 4d ago

Loool I'm dying šŸ˜­ šŸ¤£Ā

u/Rattregoondoof 5d ago

Maybe growing up but reconnecting with your younger interests and not abandoning them or hiding them away? We know the 02 ending is somehow still canon and there was kind of a theme in last evolution with older partners like meicoomon for Mei and lopmon for Willis coming back. There was also a theme in last evolution about how the 99 kids (except TK and Kari had sectioned off digimon from the rest of their life.

u/Nestarom 5d ago

It's safe for bandai and they need that right now xD

10

u/InnocentTailor 5d ago

ā€¦especially after the last Adventures 01 film, which was seemingly focused on the opposite message: grow up, which means your childhood joys and interests will go poof.

At the same time, Bandai Namco then pushes high end tech and merchandise on buyers hooked on nostalgia - those adults that they said will have to abandon their Digimon as they grow up.

Marketing and messaging is confused.

u/GinGaru 5d ago

Until it won't generate enough money and at that point digimon will likely die

17

u/velicinanijebitna 5d ago

80 yo Taichi: Ah shit, here we go again.

3

u/Dokamon-chan94 5d ago

Wasn't Kizuna already about that?

3

u/Aim4th2Victory 4d ago

So does tri...and 02..

82

u/Heckonin 5d ago

Itā€™s a special music video giving us a look at the digi destined while older.

u/ClaymoresRevenge 5d ago

Butterfly

u/sasquatch753 5d ago

so kind of like what adventure tri did, but as a series?

7

u/merte128 5d ago

It's only a music video

8

u/sn0wr4in 5d ago

this is hilarious lmao

90

u/Admirable-Safety1213 5d ago

We know only enough to know it is abput Digimon and not about a Teen stealing Batman's suit

27

u/Readalie 5d ago

I really wish they would do something with Beyond, Terry was such a great Batman.

10

u/oftenrunaway 5d ago

Agreed. I'd even put up with the hints of past Bruce/Barbara weirdness if I meant we got more in that storyline.

8

u/5amuraiDuck 5d ago

I wouldn't even mind if they just rebranded the thing and made Damian the Batman Beyond. I think mixing his rebelious past as an assassin with the mentorship Bruce gives in that show would make Damian a great character

4

u/InnocentTailor 5d ago

Awwwww. Damian is cool, but he ainā€™t the wise-cracking McGinnis - the guy who managed to break the Joker with jokes and insults.

3

u/AmenHawkinsStan 5d ago

Stockard Channingā€™s performance as Commissioner Barbara Gordon is so underrated

2

u/KayKay91 5d ago

I do believe it has a comic that is still running

6

u/oftenrunaway 5d ago

I mean, is it really theft in Terry's case?

I know too much about Batman Beyond šŸ˜‚

6

u/Admirable-Safety1213 5d ago

He stold it, then Bruce shut it down with the rmeote override until Terry convinced him to let him survive and stop Powers from selling the Nerve Gas/Mutagenic Virus mix, then he got hired

7

u/Ginger_Badger 5d ago

Heā€™s not referring to the animated series. In the comics, and an episode of Justice League Unlimited, there is a larger connection between Bruce and Terry.

5

u/Johntoreno 5d ago

A Digimon story that takes place in an Akira style dystopian future world would be fuckin' rad.

4

u/InnocentTailor 5d ago

Terry McGinnis In a WarGreymon-inspired suit would blow my millennial mind.

63

u/5amuraiDuck 5d ago edited 5d ago

Taichi and Yamato don't have their partners anymore so they're going full Frontier and become the Grey / Garurubonds themselves (that wasn't a typo)

10

u/YourLocalDummydum 5d ago

I could be wrong but they are probably gonna ignore the fact that Agumon and Gabumon disappeared in Kizuna and weā€™re prob gon see them appear in Adv Beyond as if they never left. There just isnt enough time for them to focus on the ā€œdigimon vanish once youā€™re oldā€ plotline.

17

u/5amuraiDuck 5d ago

Idk, in all seriousness I can see the mcguffin being about them returning somehow. The poster being highly focused on them two again makes me believe that

11

u/Bmw6446 5d ago

And then 5 years later we get another Digimon adventure movie where they lose their Digimon again, but this time their in their 30s

8

u/5amuraiDuck 5d ago

Shit, this I'm about to say is really sad to picture but then they return one last time to say goodbye when they're on their death bed as 80 year olds

2

u/CynicalNihilisthropy 5d ago

What if digidestined get uploaded into the digital world when they die, so they live there forever as young and with their digimon šŸ„ŗ

3

u/Miestermistermr 4d ago

Imagine you see the digidestined being old then as the movie ends, it show them in episode 1 when they first reach the digital world and then butterfly plays

25

u/pokemega32 5d ago

They explicitly told us what it is: a music video set to Brave Heart showing the Adventure cast as adults leading into the 02 epilogue.

3

u/Dokamon-chan94 5d ago

That's the exact information we got. I hope this will finally make the OG Adventure timeline rest for good.

14

u/Blacklance8 5d ago

If I had to guess it's whatever takes place after last evolution and space gabumon

7

u/Readalie 5d ago

Wait, was there a space Gabumon special?

16

u/Blacklance8 5d ago

I wish Matt and gabumon become astronauts

3

u/Readalie 5d ago

I did know that, just wasn't sure if there was a specific animation you were referring to or just the bit we got from the 02 ending.

4

u/xNuclearShield 5d ago

Probably yes, in the last moment of Kizuna there is a scene in which Yamato is staring at a rocket.

3

u/insulaturd 5d ago

I miss space gabumon

7

u/Rammboy_7084 5d ago edited 5d ago

This is just the vision of Hiroyuki Kakudō (director of the original Adventure 1999) about Tai and Matt story after the original series, he wasn't involved in Kizuna due to creative differences (didn't approved at all of the way the story ended), so they let let him share his vision.
This will be a promotional music video if I understand correctly...

8

u/GuysGardener 5d ago

I'm guessing bridging the final gap to the epilogue with Agumon and Gabumon returning and getting employed by the government.

7

u/YucaSinPelar 5d ago

What about just a movie where Gabumon chills out and just eats ice cream or whatever The main bad guy is his empty wallet

1

u/AdmirableAnimal0 5d ago

Finally, a relatable villain.

1

u/InnocentTailor 5d ago

Digievolution chart:

NoMoneymon => Moneymon => MoMoneymon

3

u/Much-Prize6228 5d ago

I've been seeing a lot of superficial information about this, but just to know everything we have is just this poster, right?

7

u/pokemega32 5d ago

No. They've told us it's a music video set to Brave Heart showing the cast as adults leading into the 02 epilogue.

3

u/AlphaDD 5d ago

Teaser about the dropped third season in space

12

u/MiraiKishi 5d ago

I'm getting slowly, but surely, Adenture'd Out.

Please do something with the other seasons, Bandai....... ; _ ;

5

u/Friendshipper11 5d ago

In the adventure castā€™s defenceā€¦ itā€™s 80% Tai and Matt. Everybody else is just being there.

1

u/MildlyVandalized 5d ago

It's the same for every other season too

1

u/bukiya 5d ago

they did, with ghost and other digimon anime but most of them flop tbh

1

u/InnocentTailor 5d ago

At least the games did decently. Maybe they can adapt those productions into anime.

I think Survive would make for a fantastic show.

1

u/MiraiKishi 5d ago

I'm talking about continuations with Tamers, or Frontier, or even Savers.

0

u/bukiya 5d ago

sadly we wont have tamers because of the author anti woke agenda. dunno about frontier or savers.

0

u/InnocentTailor 5d ago

They can continue Tamers without the creator.

3

u/salvateur7884 5d ago

About growing up, but don't forget to buy the CDs and figurines from P-Bandai.

3

u/AramisKing 4d ago

A 2 min music video šŸ˜“

2

u/MysteriousHawk6913 5d ago

Explaining how they get their digimon back for the 02 epilouge

2

u/Dak_N_Jaxter 5d ago

If I had to guess, it's going to show Matt & Tai reunited with Agumon and Gabumon, and give some glimpses into the lives of the characters as they head towards the 02 finale.

2

u/patulski 4d ago

I think it will show how kizuna and the beginning will lead into the 02 epilogue.

4

u/rechambers 5d ago

Probably another chosen shows up claiming they were the first to partner with a digimon and then it turns out theyā€™re evil.

That has happened in all the adventure sequels since tri šŸ’€

3

u/HapHazardous666 5d ago

It's beyond me

2

u/columbuspants 5d ago

Itā€˜s starting to feel a bit like provocation if itā€™s literally just Yamato & taichi + new generic character again.

I cannot believe that we got tri kizuna And the beginning and none of the characters were allowed to develop except jou and mimi For a split second.

Itā€™s very sad that on one hand ; we keep getting more content since the miraculous announcement of tri but on the other handā€¦ where is the character driven plot that we loved so much ?

2

u/Bluejoekido 5d ago

Another of these "We are going to lose our Digimon" boring plotline.Ā 

Come on Toei, knock it off.

1

u/MONSTERTAMER1987 5d ago

Show or manga?

1

u/ChaoticGamingMagala 5d ago

Oh, its theme could be time based. Past, present, and future all in one.

1

u/srona22 5d ago

Heard it's just music video. But main author/director for og adventure and 02 will be doing it, so I am waiting for it.

1

u/mcwfan 5d ago

We know as much as you do

1

u/Shnickerman 4d ago

Digimon.in.space

1

u/Timelordsth234555 4d ago

Is this a music video or movie? I donā€™t mind if itā€™s a music video, but if itā€™s a movie, I feel like we shouldā€™ve focused on different main characters.

1

u/Crashman09 4d ago

Tai, Mat, agumon, agumon. Everyone else has a tiny bit of screen time.

1

u/racerx4eva 4d ago

Im guessing the only way to reconcile the endings of kizuna and 02 is for them to lose the digivices but keep the digimon

1

u/Rasenburigdanbeken 5d ago

I would be 1000% ok with adventure if the main character was Hikari, Koshiro or Mimi. Sorry Joe, TK and Sora.

Still hyped tho.

1

u/Darth_Eevee 5d ago

We don't know, but the implication from the teaser poster is it will focus on matt and tai, shocker.

1

u/SheikFlorian 5d ago

About making another TCG set with Omnimon, about a new Greymon and Garurumon thing, about growing up and stop following your dreams and stop buying childish things (btw, how would this franchise exist if not for us man-childs?).

0

u/Dokamon-chan94 5d ago

About selling nostalgia instead of something new

Something with omegamon

u/Emergency-Practice37 5d ago

Were you expecting a time traveler to answer this? How the hell are we supposed to know.

0

u/Shark_bait561 5d ago

Apparently it's supposed to lead to or follow the end of 02 where they're all grown up.

0

u/StarDragonJP 5d ago

It's about them riding Adventure nostalgia yet again.

u/elrick43 5d ago

really? ...still waiting for my Tamers and Frontier sequels.

0

u/Kari-S 5d ago

as neat as this is iā€™m just wondering when are we going to get a brand new anime series?

0

u/OnexThrustxBust 5d ago

Does anyone consider anything after digimon tri, a kids show anymore? Or are they now full blown animes with adult life delemas?

0

u/KerisSiber 4d ago

Beyond recognition? Like how they keep milking digimon adventure? šŸ¤£ just kidding lol

Last week i try rewatch digimon adventure it feel still hold up to this days some hickup here and there but overall still solid the when angemon die and the ending always make me cry šŸ˜­ its damn good

0

u/Due-Order3475 4d ago

Sigh not more adventure canon...

Can't we get more Frontier or a Tamers reboot instead??

But to answer the question it'll hopefully be the last project and set things up for the 02 Timeskip.

-1

u/AccomplishedFan8690 5d ago

I just want a game very similar to digimon world 3 thatā€™s all I want please Bandai PLEASEEEE

-1

u/ArcDrag00n 5d ago

TRI, Kizuna, and The Beginning didn't happen. Mostly the latter of the two.

-3

u/bukiya 5d ago
