You know what observed is that no one noticed that Sora lost Biyomon. Sora was the first to know that her bond with Biyomon was running short; which is why she refused to fight along side everyone else. It was really brief but you can see her digivice also turned to stone or it just greyed out; just like Yamato’s and Taichi.
My theory as to why those three lost their digimon and no one else is because those three were stagnant/ stuck in their adult lives. Taichi and Yamato aren’t sure of their futures are they lack the passion of where they want to go. Sora is still struggling with her flower arrangements since she’s following her mother’s path. The pressures of living up to a family members expectations can really make you feel trapped. Menoa said it best when she said that once we reach adulthood our limitless potential is gone; after all kids have so much passion and potential. But Joe is the oldest of the team but he still has Gomamon. The reason the rest of the team still have their partners is pretty obvious; they found their passion; and in doing so their potential is still growing. The reason Menoa lost her partner is because she burned her potential to quickly; she didn’t enjoy her younger years like a kid should have therefore she lost Morphomon.
But yes I do agree with your point; Taichi, Yamato and Sora will be reunited with their partners again. But not because they want their kids to bond with them; it’ll happen once they have found their potential and goals again.
I really like what you said about Joe not losing Gomamon specifically because he knew what he wanted out of life! That was one question I didn't have a great answer for was why is Joe "mr. adult" Kido still have his childhood partner when Sora, Taichi, and Yamato are losing theirs. But like you said, Taichi, Yamato, and Sora were sort of drifting through young adulthood in a way that the others weren't! They need to lose their partners to find their own way and once they do, they'll meet again. :)
Yes I agree. My take on it is that they are certainly reunited, one they have started to move forward and live their lives. The ending of 02, once confusing, now makes sense-everyone has moved forward, unlocked potential and the link between human and Digimon is re-forged. One thing people havent pointed out is there is a line in the conversation with Genai, that yes, losing their digimon is inevitable "Unless you have more potential locked away somewhere.." To me, what this means is that Mat, Tai and Sora have to grow up and find their path. Once they do, their new potential is now unlocked...
I agree, in 02 sora was a fashion designer. I believe that when they have where their passions lie and pursue it, the connection with their digimon will be restored
@@theagronist6390 I have a feeling that if we had digimon we would experience the same thing. I know i'd probably would have lost my digimon after college haha and I wouldn't be reunited with them until I got into my career haha.
@@theagronist6390 Thank you! I believe the message is that if you pursue your passions, you can always be young in spirit and have limitless potential. Such a sad but hopeful ending. In the end, we can all smile and know they are ultimately reunited; some how some way (digimon 02 ending confirmed as Canon). I am hopeful for another movie...Kizuna left it wide open. Will it be Tai and the original digidestined to save the day this time? probably not, their adventures, per se, are over. But as Tai says "who knows what tomorrow brings?" Still, as sad as this ending is, SO MUCH happier than Tamers ending..omg, had me a sobbing wreck for whole weekend. I wont even watch the finale with my nephew...
"When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up."
- C.S. Lewis
How extremely appropriate, Im convinced Digimon might have been inspired by Narnia or at least its a wonderful convergence of the philosophy of growing up
Growing up is overrated.
@@14reasons58 Fair enough.
My interpretation of the Digimon concept is that as children these partner 'digimons' symbolizes their individual 'strengths' manifesting into digital monsters. These monsters would evolve and fight for their cause because the children are still too weak to tackle the various battles, at the same time helping the children in their respective growths. Now as these children are about to step into adulthood and having realized that soon they would have to say goodbye to their beloved partners, "we'll always be together" says Agumon, Gabumon, etc. This refrain suggests that even when the partner digimons are gone or formless, the strengths they've gained in their adventures together will forever stay with the child, who now is an adult ready to pursue his/her dreams with a resolve in it's most evolved form.
That was deep
True, at least the adventure, the BONDS was _real_
The same goes with Oikawa's partner.
Pipimon said that we actually have met and together since long ago.
At least they did the their final bonds
Beautiful interpretation.
not gonna lie im 26 and digimon never left my heart once
Edit: I never had so many comments and likes, thank you so much! Im really glad that I can share this feeling with so many of you! Digimon lives on!

Digimon is our childhoods❤
I'm 31 and watching the new series when i can
28 and still hanging/ rocking with digimon
They nodded at the 02 Endings:
If you can remember, the way Taichi became a lawyer: he is studying Political Science and started his thesis, which is sort of being a diplomat between the human world and the digital world. Matt also nods at his 02 ending because they're saying he is applying for the Police force but changed his path to travel. His last picture (in the credits) was in an airbase so I feel like this is where he gets inspired to pursue being an Astronaut
The main theme around the movie is that Menoa is a liar and lousy scientist. She says that all Chosen Children and their partners will eventually separate, but she only has herself as an example. She lost Morphomon when she was 14 according to the Blu-Ray extras. However, the context surrounding her loosing Morphomon is that she was pushing herself to act as adult because she skipped grades to study as a University student. She pushed Morphomon away and rarely interacted with her anymore, resulting in her closing herself from the other part of her soul. It is canon that the Digimon are the other part of the Children’s soul.
Menoa, in an effort to fit society’s expectations of a child genius in university, killed the part that was Morphomon. It’s why she views adults as miserable people and only going back in time can she regain her happiness.
Hey, WAIT A MINUTE! This is just a rehash of Ken and Wallace’s arcs from 02!
Anyway, the reason as to why Sora first lost Biyomon is also revealed in To Sora, Sora has already pushed away Biyomon, she is an Adult with Adult worries and can no longer deal with Biyomon’s supposed childness, or in reality, the physical manifestation of her childhood that she is supposed to disregard. Taichi and Yamato are also going down this path. They pawn off Agumon and Gabumon to their siblings to babysit, consider bringing them to class ridiculous, and expect adulthood to be a miserable state they will have to suffer through.
What Gennai actually meant is that there is the possibility that Partners would disappear in adulthood but not with every Chosen Child. Afterall the 02 kids aren’t that behind in age, they are also considered adults by society’s standards (except Iori, who is in Highschool), but from how they treat their partners they wouldn’t disappear like what happened with Sora, Taichi, and Yamato.
02 epilogue implies that they all get their Partners back they will, not because they will have children, but because they will have found their happiness and childhood again, or something equivalent to that. Their journey in life isn’t over just yet after all.
Where can you watch to sora?
To me, Menoa definitely grew up too fast, idk how's she decided to think that becoming an adult would make her seem that she would have control. It's more of being able to grow in yourself as well as your environment that you begin to change.
I kind of understand how Tai and Matt did not know their place in the world just yet and so they had to distance themselves from their Digimon without realizing. When you think about how growing up works, to me, it's about being in tune with the parts of yourself that you grew up on as a child and bringing those hence forth to yourself as an adult. We may not be children anymore but those traits as what represents the crests for our OG digidestined is what makes us become who we are and how we can achieve the happiness we want in life in the process. Nothing ever ends. It's always a new chapter, new challenge, new adventure that makes us stronger and evolve further than before.
02 ending already shows their kids interacting with their digimons btw.
I agree with you but I’m going to use more fo the phrasing that the movie did. Genai specifically said they could see their Digimon again if they had some hidden potential. The movie’s villain lost her Digimon so quickly because she set her life up and made a lot of critical decisions very quickly. Matt and Tai lost their Digimon when they finally narrowed down what they wanted to do with their lives. But growing doesn’t mean you lose all of your potential.
The villain never got her Digimon back because she kept living on the past and essentially closed off every opportunity she had. But when the other digidestined continue in their lives there will be more potential in their careers and relationships. It only ever ends if you picture adulthood as the end. Those criticism milestones in your life are where you decide how far you want to go. Graduating isn’t the end, getting the job isn’t the end, getting marrying isn’t the end. The end of your adventure is when you let it end.
H. W love this comment, great point!
That very true I’m gonna be both a wrestling manger an auto mechanic one day an then I’ll start my own garage an school for wrestling.
Yeah when i'm watching this, i'm wondering that when Tai was asked about the way to stop breaking the connection with Agumon, he didn't say what Genai said that there is a way to stop
@@anhminhdiep1650 he might have told them off scene
Goku and company got better and had far more adventures past dragonball, in dbz and dbs. This is essentially digimon 01 ending to dragonball.
Original digimon 01 ending at 12
-digimon 02 taking place while the 01 cast is 15(16 for joe)
Digimon tri ending at 17
Digimon last evolution: 19/20ish
The 25yrs later epilogue is just that point we see them. Their kids of both 01/02 cast members, appear to be 5-10 yr old range. Meaning the digi destined got their digimon back about 15-20yrs after the last evolution.
-a small retcon of age. Since the 01 cast was 15 at the conclusion of the final battle in 02. So they'd be in their 30's when their digimon return. Going by age of their kids.
Honestly the sora losing her digimon was the thing that sent me over Tai and Matt were sad but they had the team with them. Sora being the mother hen suffered alone and even hid it because she didn't want people worrying about her and maybe even cutting short the others time with their partners. Either way my 12 year old asked if she was really old enough to watch that episode when it was over and we agreed she wasn't lol
I'm 27 but man i cried a lot especially on the ending scene my wife and my son laughed at me without it knowing this was my childhood 😭 and a part of me was reflected on this anime movie 🙂
Stuck rewatching it sometimes,
Painful😊
This movie honestly opened my eyes, we have to keep a part of our childhoods but at the same time we have to keep just a little piece of that inside so we can truly evolve to that next level of ourselves.
I cried so hard man, this shit got me fucked up.
It's been a while and I thought I'm prepared for it. I've cried watching the original, never knew I'd cry again watching just the review of it. Fuck.
Monoa belucci got me cry when morpmon gone really dude 😂😂😂 they got me there for cry 🤣🤣🤣
Dude I'm 42 Adventure came out when I was 19 so it wasn't part of my childhood growing up, but I ugly cried when they faded away
Umm, actually Sora was the first. That is why she is hardly in Last Evolution at all. She and Biyomon/Piyomon parted ways already.
Nah, Biyomon was still alive in the movie, until the night when everyone battling, before Tai Chi blew the whistle, Biyomon fated away
@@ahshing819 Um no that is not correct there is actually a short called "To Sora" that is a letter from Mimi to Sora that explains how you are very wrong.
@@joshstephens413 The movie is out now, I suggest you watch again, you will notice at 00:10:55 (opening scene), Sora digivice is in countdown mode. At 00:44:39 (raining night), she is holding and talking to Biyomon, Biyomon ask Sora is it OK for her not to go, and Sora hold tight Biyomon saying she just want to be with her. At 01:18:19 only she holding her petrify digivice. This are all the proof that Biyomon is still alive.
I think what Josh means is Biyomon is the first to show signs. Since as we did see the digivice at the start was nearly at the end of its timer. Yeah though, Biyo was def still alive in the film, but faded before the other two, sadly. qq
@@Zetsumeii ye when Taichi blowed Hikaris whistle you could see that Soras digivice is turned to stone
Agree, I noticed in the last part of the movie when it's zooming on the paper "Thesis Topic": How humans and Digimon can coexist. I think that will connect to 02 Epilogue. 1 hour and 34 minutes of the movie hehe
When I saw, I was like he's becoming what he's going to be in the future! ❤️
Here's what the ending of digimon adventure means to me: regardless of whether they meet with their digimon again (Digimon02), the point the series wants to make, or message, is that we aren't kids forever. Time comes for all of us to stop "dreaming" the way kids do and become adults. That's how our stories digi-evolve into something new. What will you do now? What will tomorrow bring you? Do you know? If not, that is okay. Unfortunately, everything comes to an end as do our childhood years and the adventures you had, the good old times, in the end they will become nothing but memories. It's sad but it's true. And your only option left is to board that next train heading... somewhere. This makes even more sense if you rewatch digimon02 epilogue after this. Our once digidestined heroes are still having adventures, just of a different sort (the average everyday life). It's time for the kids of the new generation to have their digimon adventure now, to dream like we did, as they too will grow out of it when their time comes.
The digiworld was always a fantasy world. Cutting ties with it represents growth. It's time to go out there and explore a new world now.
I am so upset I will never get the chance to watch digimon for the very first time again. Yes, I can always restart watching the series from ep1 but that's a walk down memory lane. My first adventure was already experienced. And just like these kids, I too have become an adult. Though it can be hard, it's time to get into the adult mindset and move on with our adult lives.
Thank you Digimon for such AMAZING childhood. What can I say? Perfect ending, perfect way to say goodbye to our childhood. sad yes, but the feels just make it the more meaningful and memorable :')
Someday, years from now when I'm much older, I know my heart will want to revisit the digiworld, so I will come back to you digimon, even if it is for an episode or 2, or just for a 10min nostalgia trip, but I will surely be back and for that moment right there I will be back to being a kid and be as happy as I remember this series making me back in the day. Because we always come back to the places that made us our happiest.
this had me tearing up, digimon will always have a place in my heart. ^_^
damn harsh words "Dreaming Like kids".
Thing is, does that mean Digimon's life is now on a big limit when they become partners with humans? If so, then that's kinda messed up..
Never forget your inner child! That should never dies. And it means more than just do things that you like when you were a kid.
Hope this message helps in your life as it has helped me a lot (early's 30 and married now) :)
reading this makes me cry :')
I just realized the final battle was the battle against themselves. It's true that the only real enemy you have to conquer in life continuously will be yourself, and that's what makes the final battle more poetic, albeit weaker than the first two battles. By conquering their childhood, nothing can stand in their way in the future.
That was so deep man. I loved Digimon growing up, more than Dragon ball, Pokemon and other shows that were always on at the time. I just grew out of it after Tamers and didnt have time for it anymore with school, work, having my own kid and just life in general. That movie hit hard and the connection you made, just hits a bit home too much lmfao.
But my son is about the age that I was when I loved these shows and has been getting into anime. I showed him pokemon first and he loves it and once I told him about Digimon, he wanted to watch it right away. And he loves it. Then I find Digimon Tri, Last Evolution and now Digimon Adventure 2020 and it's like I'm a kid again. I get to watch the original anime all over again with my son who was the same age as I was when I fell in love with these shows and experience the new ones with him as well. It's such a trip that I now have a child who loves these shows as much as i did when i was younger.
The ending kept me up all night and I definitely was in tears when it happened, even yelled out NO! when it happened, felt like I lost a childhood friend. So sad but proper ending of almost 20+ years
Love this video and I freaking cried during the movie!
Me too dude and I'm 28 😅😅😅
My dead ass almost cried! It's so sad, It was worth waiting for the movie.
Frankly, I would be worried you didnt have both a childhood nor a soul if you didnt cry.
See I'm 29, I've gone through undergrad and graduate school. The uncertainty of what to do after that stage of life is REAL! I grew up when Adventure came out and watched the series all the way through Data Squad. I believe that was the final season that was airing during my high school years. My FAVORITE part of the movie was when Matt and Tai were sitting in the restaurant drinking beer and talking about what they're doing after they graduate. Of course, the ending when their Digimon disappear was heartbreaking, but the glimmer of hope at the end along with the end credits had me bawling!!!!
@@OurKindofEntertainment Im 35. A little old for Digimon but its cool...never really had a happy childhood or early teen years and digimon was a great escape. Yup, that period is real, for sure and glad the movie addressed it. However, my fav (and funniest part) was when Agumon came to Tais bachelor pad (yes, weve all had one. with the sofa bed and thin walls etc..) and discovered Tai's porn stash! lol, guess he really has grown up.
I mean the abridged tri makes sense
“Growing up doesn’t mean u let things go
It means understanding why you love things and where they belong in ur life”
Tri Abridged was a masterpiece. Shame it couldn't be finished. I imagine they would have made the whole thing even better.
Hello! now, after recovering my hydration from all the tears, I decided to watch the movie again. Another observation I would like to point out is that Agumon and Gabumon dont resist their fates...they know it is coming. A poignant moment is when Tai reaches for Agumon and says "we will always be partners right"..you see Agumon hesitate. Also, just before Agumon leaves you see him comment about how big Tai has gotten..saying, "your grown up now..you dont need me anymore, your adventures are now your own." In the end though, I do think we will have another movie which will show them reunited, but I dont think it will be Tai and Matt with their partners or any of the orginial digidestined that save that save the day...their adventures are done, but that dosent mean they wont be reunited to help in some way. Just my 2 cents. Any thoughts?
i agree with you. digimon didnt die. they dont die. imo they just went back to digiworld live on their own until the next time they see each other
@@filipbrcko Well the story with Morphomon confirms they dont die per se, but are reverted back to data (image of butterfly to me signifies data packet heading back to the digital world. Biyomon's even kept its ankle ring). Which can be restored to a digital egg (also confirmed). Kizuna made it clear to me they werent quite yet willing to let go of Digimon Adventure-there are too many loose ends. I believe when the next movie comes out (I hope its when, not if) we will likely see the 02 kids take the reigns with their final evolutions-and then will be discovered how to restore potential (potential is key as Gennai said). Likely the key is that the digidestined themselves have to "digivolve" by moving forward with their lives, following their dreams, becoming successful, starting a family etc..
But still.. This movie hit me and A LOT of fans HARD.. Cried sporadically for DAYS after watching it. Digimon just was such a part of my childhood, and then reuniting with them as a young adult in Tri...then to see this movie conclude the way it did. Never felt this way about another movie or anime or show. Really tempted to not pick up new Digimon reboot-frankly dont want my heart broken again.
I think a major plot point we need to address is the fact that Agumon’s and Gabumon’s new and final evolutions were born from the bonds they had with their partners. That’s an obvious and significant plot point, as it represents the fact that their connections will never truly be lost. Sure, it may be severed for a while, as you mentioned, but they can always find a way back to each other. There are too many plot points from everything prior that point to the epilogue being possible too. Much of what was covered during 01, 02, and Tri involved the digital world constantly intersecting its the real more often than normal. Sure, some barrier may get established again, but it’s broken down too often for humanity to just forget or leave it alone. Throw Koushiro’s ingenuity, the ambiguous nature of digital gates, and a possible number of adult shadow groups that the last few outings threw into the mix and you always have a chance of the connection between the two worlds being reestablished. The real world just can’t forget what happened anymore or write it off rationally, like a Digimon attack being some sort of terrorist attack.
Tai & Matt's story ends here - but Davis, Ken, Yolie, Cody, TK & Kari still have their partners with them...which there has to be another chapter to come as their story has not reached a conclusion.

You honestly made the perfect case for digimon representing old hobbies/toys.
I always loved card games, video games, and board games, but like you somewhere along the way i thought most of that stuff was just for kids. Today i collect my cards when i get a bonus, i periodically play my video games when i get my house cleaned up, and i cant wait to see all the cool stuff my future kids will want to try. A lot of my change came from finding a wife, because she genuinely wanted to try the stuff i liked but i had felt to self conscious to buy. I would say youre video might actually be correct in that this is what the writers were actually talking about
Dude, your theory was hands down absolutely true in my case.
I haven't watched Digimon in years, the last show I saw was Frontiers. But Digimon had a special place in my heart. After ao many years I became father and I started showing my son the shows I watched when I was young. So I started rewatching Digimon with him and got to find about the tri films and kizuna. I watched Kizuna for myself and it did hit me like a brick (I cried like a bitch). All those emotions and nostalgia came over me mixed with the happiness about my son enjoying the same show I did as a child. After all those years I was reunited with "my digimon" in my 30ies.
I finally ended up on this video, searching for "will we ever see agumon and gabumon again". And everything you said made 100% sense.
Thanks for your video!
Love that! Thanks for sharing :) :)
Sora was actually the first one. half way through the final battle, you see Sora with broken device
My biggest gripe with this is the same one I have with these types of narratives in general, the idea we have to lose something to grow up and the idea theres an expiration date on potential, imagination and child like world view.
Using digimon, which are living creatures rather than toys makes this an even crueler message imo.
Im someone who was terrified of growing up for years because i thought it meant id have to stop liking games and animated shows I thought it meant i had to forget fun snd fantastical things-suck it up and become a boring adult with no fun interests or hobbies or enjoyment for childish things.
Society already pushes this idea so strongly as well and its dimply not true, adults can play pokemon, like digimon and watch cartoons, adults can get excited about works of fiction , cosplay and mess around and have innocent fun like going to funfairs, cinemas or searching for crabs on the beach
People do not change or lose anything by growing up the mindset that you do is depressing but a lot of ppl become a self fulfilling prophecy as they are cohered or bullied into giving up things tht are childish
Its a narrative i really reject
And the idea potential becomes limited is insulting as theres plenty of ppl who change careers and start new hobbies well into middle age and later life
The movie was sad and tear jerking but i font think the message was a good one the idea “your growing up so that partner youve had with you for years has to die bc your too old for it” is just not a good message or good way to handle living characters
Weve had mountains of lore that explains digimon are individuals and grow and exist as their own beings hell alot of them get entire character arcs and certainly dont stay the same
This isnt a bad movie, its gorgeous even- but reducing digimon to stand ins for losing your childhood just doesn’t sit right with me
Im all for smashing the stigma that ppl have to lose the things they hold dear to them as they grow up bc growing up is losing a part of yourself
Its simply not the case unless u let it be
This is an amazing comment! If you don’t already have a blog or something, I encourage you to start one for write ups like this! Super thoughtful take on the movie!
@Corvus Katana
Honestly it feels like Digimon last evolution was trying to take a page out of the "Hideki aino/gainax book" of Badly written endings, this movie really does send the wrong message to children and to fans of Digimon in general
Especially considering this ending literally contradicts the ending of Digimon Adventure 02 epilogue
Where we are shown that the 01 kids still have their Digimon well into their adulthood
Also Digimon Data Squad literally has 3 adult characters who have Digimon
Which literally contradicts the ending of last evolution
I totally agree with you. I grew up watching Digimon but for a time I didn't pay attention to the franchise. But recently I started getting back into Digimon. I never believed that growing up means you have to stop playing video games, watching anime, etc. I'm glad to see Digimon making a comeback after all these years.
Yeah, the idea that you have to lose everything when you grow up is awful & pushed way too much. I know Japan has this situation where careers take over most of your life, although you shouldn't have to give up all of the things that are really important to you. While it is true that everything someday ends & you need to cherish things while you have them, Kizuna really didn't feel like a good ending the way that Adventure 02 epilogue did.
@@bookmew1081 I hope the new digimon 02 movie explains how Tai and the rest of the original digidestined met their partners again.
I’ve put off watching this movie because I’m not ready to say goodbye to the OG cast. I cried so much during Tri and this might set me over the edge. I grew up watching this anime. It’s my childhood. I am now a parent and plan on introducing all of my favorites to them. Hopefully they love them as much as I do.
Fuck this ending man. We've followed this series for decades, they could've at least sent us off with the happy ending we deserve
Agreed!!!!
@@arianah8842
They literally pulled a gainax ending on us
2:03 I’m gonna stop you there for a second. Tai and Agumon did not become lawyers, they became diplomats for the Digital World. Cody and Armadillomon are the ones who became lawyers.
That's really unimportant detail currently XD, but nice notice!
HOLY FUCK! YOU NAILED IT! My son is turning 6 and he is getting all into the stuff. He is loving Digimon and enjoying sharing the show with him!
I never let go of the things that I enjoy. I see people say that this or that is my childhood, but for me its my past, present, and future. I had a friend who was ashamed to admit he likes anime, and video games. I feel thats being fake. No matter what be true to oneself. Even if you become a social pariah you know you're true to yourself and what you like. I'm 30 and have played every generation of Pokemon, still play Yu-Gi-Oh!, still play video games, read and collect comics etc. Life is short so why waste it on what people think of you?
I agree.
How others think of you is an important part of life as we want connections with other people in most cases. What matters is that you keep what you love most regardless of changes & there is nothing wrong with being a secret fan of something if you feel it necessary. Everyone has things they want to keep secret from 1 social group, yet are safe with another group knowing. I'm ok with being thought of as somewhat childish & actually want to give off that aura of being young & cute.
@@bookmew1081 To my wife and kids, but that's it. I'm a loner, and always will be. We all like the same things so what others think of me and social connections aren't important. I see no reason to keep something secret just to feel you have to fit it. I never said there is nothing wrong with hiding what you like, I just find it to be fake in my opinion. I don't find liking some of the things I like childish bc I never let it go, mainly bc I'm an artist and I see beauty in animation, but I digress. I see where you're coming from and respect your views.
Isn’t Davis saying he wants to own a Ramen shop in “last evolution” and him actually owning one in at the end of Tri a big giveaway that their both canon?
TK is also an author in the 02 epilogue, and when Matt and Tai are in the bar Matt says TK is currently writing a book, on top of that, Tai’s College Thesis at the very end of the credits also coincides with what Tai is doing at the end of 02.
I think it was Bandai’s plan to give us the clues that the 02 epilogue is still cannon but leave it vague enough for us to theorize how they get their digimon back and to reach that point.
Yep and u can see Matt reading a book about aerospace engineering, confirming that his path will lead him to space like the 02 ending

I mean yeah he could have changed his The type of doctor he became I mean he could’ve ended up seeing too many people die so maybe he decided to become a digimon doctor instead because you know there isn’t one? Idk
I was under the impression he had a noodle empire
It has been a year to day since I watched this film...Still, sad when I think about ending. I guess, comes back to when I was a kid and found Digimon and got to go into the Digiworld and see kids my age defeat evil monsters (bullies) with teamwork, dedication and heart. The second season came, and I got to live it again (albeit not with as much heart as the first) and it ended on such a happy note. Then, 15 years later, I got to re-unite with them in Digimon Tri. Such a wonderful throwback when I saw Tai and Agumon defeat Kuagumon again. Then, of course, the excitement when I got the Last Evolution DVD-"Oh, to be back with the Digidestined again" I thought. and then watched the movie...Sadness. All adventures must end, I know, but to end such a beloved series like the way they did. Im not the only one either, this film hit home hard with A LOT of Digimon OG fans. I used to compare it to the ending of Digimon Tamers..but we had one season with them. Many anime fans grew up with Digimon-- so this ending just cuts deeper.
Was talking with a friend and he pointed out; if Tai and Matt weren't certain about their futures then shouldn't that mean their Digimon should be with them until they do and unlock that potential? I was laughing so hard when he said that, but my guess is that since these two constantly battle with the Digimon it sped up their remaining time despite any untapped potential. I mean going Ultimate and then Omnimon multiple times probably burned out the clock like Gotenks using Super Saiyan 3 and that reduces the 30 minute fusion. Just a guess, but when it comes to T.K., Kari and the 02 kids it makes since why they would obviously have a lot more time left since they have a journey to go on that isn't quite at the same point that the older kids are at.
I like to believe that the countdown for them meant that at the time it had run out they will have succesfully grown up, let go of the past and have reached their full potential, but as they chose that moment to be in battle they were cappable to show that full potential reached, hence, the last evolution
Personally I saw tai and Matt were no longer pushing for the future they wanted but instead settled on just being adults with a digimon.
I believe there bond and love for the digimon made them last as longest they did.
But if you look at the remaining digimon and the digidestined are still pushing for their potential.
Its like in tri. I always felt each episode showed the digidestined finding what made them special and reminded them to keep fighting for what they want.
Honestly matt and tai they settled
Should GMA Network take over the Broadcasting Rights for the Digimon Anime Series, Digimon Adventure would be the first
@@demi323100 Yeah it's a bit sad to see that. The characters I knew didn't settle on whatever, they went out and made things happen.
It's obviously some plot hole induced retcons. At the end of digimon 02, which is like 25yrs later. We see the main cast have digimon along with their kids.
Unless this is another timeline???
I feel like we needed an ending like that, even tho it makes us sad. They conveyed the "ending" feeling so well with visuals, music and interactions among the characters. Man, some of us, including me, grew up with Digimon.
We have matured enough to be able to comprehend and feel emotions of a sad ending and it's beautiful. We watched and participated in their adventures - we grew up with them, with the Digimon community ourselves. THAT was and is our adventure we share with each other.
I have dreamt about having my own Digimon only to wake up and get sad when I realized that was unreal. This whole Digimon world is unreal BUT I know I'm not the only one feeling melancholic (and borderline depressed) about a fantasy world.
We all share similar emotions about a world that never existed but wished to be part of it and we are now bidding farewell to it. It was a magical childhood and its magic persisted until our adulthood and still persists to this very day.❤️
I don't think it's the end of the Digidestined kids. I'm sure Tai, Matt and Sora will reunited with their Digimons again but that will only happen when they know what they found their passions. For example, Sora is following her mother's path as a florist but in the ending of Digimon Adventure 02 she is a fashion designer. So the Digidestined re-united with their partners when they have found their goal. Another example, let's take Joe, he didn't lose Gomamon and that's because he always knew he wanted to be a doctor, he had already found his goal. So Tai, Matt and Sora will see their friends again once they have settled into their adult lives. After all, your story doesn't end when you grow up or become an adult, it ends when you decide that it will. :)
In the end credits we get a picture of each of our digidestined and Joey Mimi and Izzy are the only ones not shown with their digimon the implication being that they eventually also lost their partner :(
The 02 epilogue shows when some of them have kids already, while Kizuna revolves around the time when Tai and Yamato just about to graduate. So there is still some gap years between Kizuna and 02 epilogue. There is a big possibility that Agumon and Gabumon will meet them again, but not sure if they gonna have the previous memories
Yeah I agree. I think we still really have the 02 kids to wrap up with a final adventure and Kizuna just left it too open (and frankly too damn depressing-this ending hit A LOT of people very hard) to not provide some closure and link to the 02 epilogue.
I hate the 02 ending. them fking each other is NOT cool. They suppse to be best frds. I don't mind if they discard this bs.
I just think they can co-exist because Last Evolution is clear they can no longer fight together, their bonds as guardians of the digital world are gone. But in 02 Ending you don't see them fighting, right? Gabumon and Agumon didn't cease to exist. Their bonds with Tai and Matt are as friends. When their kids eventually get into the digital world, I assume Agumon and Gabumon are also their to greet Matt and Tai. I think it's about the original cast giving up their role as digidestined permanently but that doesn't mean they can no longer be friends or eventually have some way of meeting.
The movie was so good! So much better than Tri and there were so many good calls to the original digimon movies.
Although I feel like Sora was a bit shafted. And I really wish the other Digidestined got some more screen time, especially in that fight in the end.
But overall I feel like this was the best piece of digimon media since Tamers (not counting Digimon 2020 as it hasn't finished). 9.5/10
Sora got her own clip
ua-cam.com/video/rtnwIuJy5BY/v-deo.html
I thought so too but when tai blows the whistle you will see sora wishing tai luck with her broken digivice, so she already said by to piyomon before Matt and tai said bye to their digimon. Sora was always the lil more mature one and head on straight knowing what she wanted to do with her life
True so much better than that stupid Tri.
@@howardlam6181 thanks for the video, it hits all the feels
I appreciate the Meiko and Meicoomon cameo.
Until that cameo it felt like they were pretending Tri didn't happen. Which I get, the final 2 parts of Tri were complete dumpster fires. But evil gennai is never mentioned, we never find out what he was planning with the piece of Apocolymon he got from Ordinemon being killed.
There was a time but I wasn't aware of it that it was going to be my.last time watching digimon for years. Now I'm watching it again. Did I rediscover my "Digimon"?
Love this comment!
This movie....is enough to make a grown man cry..
When I watched last evolution and its ending I was incredibly shocked, heartbroken and disillusioned. My immediate response to seeing that ending was looking back at 02's ending and rationalizing that as "this is not the end of the story but the end of another chapter." feeling relief because I never want to surrender to the belief happiness and things you love can be permanently lost from your life, wither it be friends, hobbies or your passions and that there are ways to rekindle them.
I immediately went to watch the 02 ending also bc I couldn’t believe that was the end we get after 20 years of growing and being with these characters. In my head cannon they reconnect with those parts of their soul/digimon again, they just have to
I wonder if in a couple years time, they’re going to bring back original Digidestined and show them to reunite back with their digimon partners again in a movie where they are dealing with adults life such as career and relationship.
Just do the whole thing as a slice of life. No big bad except for anxiety.
Wow great job! I liked how you compared the Digi destined kid's saying goodbye at the end of each season to saying goodbye to our high school friends as we move on to college. There'll always be goodbyes in the course of our lives and that's real and it hurts but also if we're lucky we might have another chance of rekindling those relationships later on in life. By then we will have grown and they will likely be different too but it's all a part of growing up. Often times there'll be yet another goodbye but that's Life 😌 thanks for making this video 🙏 =,]
I really liked the analogy you used here, because you honestly never really say goodbye to your hobbies if you truly love them. But while it doesn't fall flat, it doesn't always take something like having a kid to reignite that spark you had as a kid when pursuing them. Sometimes all it takes is the realization that you still *CAN* or otherwise that you can *NOW*. I'm sure if anything happened between Kizuna and the 02 ending, which, knowing digimon adventure, SOMETHING PROBABLY DID, BECAUSE SOMETHING ALWAYS HAPPENS, MILLENIUMMON HAS TAINTED THAT DIGITAL WORLD FOREVER, and Daisuke's group probably took care of it, but to me there's a zero chance that Taichi and co didn't get in on it in some capacity.
Plus there's the whole thing where, to my knowledge, Jo never loses Gomamon, so I guess that speaks for the fact that he actually knows what he wants to do in life. And who knows, maybe some of the other chosen children found their paths too before their partners vanished, and maybe the ones that did vanish showed back up when their partners found their path in life.
Thanks for your detailed comment! Great read :)
I know the creators have said they're sort of done now with Tai and the original digi-destined but I would love to see a movie with the Adventure 02 cast - especially given how they were handled in the Tri movies.
They are the sellers in Digimon it is a retarded move Imo. If Tai and gang are big sellers why would you abandon your money makers? Why is Blackwargreymon not brought back because he made adventure 2? So many questions to be answered. It is bullshit they just never get to meet again.
@@aaronmills8295 he died in the human world and gave his life to fix the barrier between worlds, just like wizarmon cant come back
@@kamenrideraquarius but if you consider a reboot which happened wizarmon should've come back, which i can say for blackwargraymon since he was made of black tower originaly....
@@aaronmills8295 because unlike things like Pokemon or Harry Potter they learn that there characters have done their jobs
Well you're in luck...
Absolutely. I agree with you 100%. I'm so glad I'm not the only one who saw Digimon as childhood hobbies that recur periodically in different stages of your life. I had the exact same theory that the 02 ending had something to do with the digidestined having kids. "What if they came back because most people with kids say they feel like a kid again when they have children of their own?" I thought. "That has to be the key." I strongly believe that's the connection. Great video! Thank you for sharing your thoughts. It's so nice knowing someone else has made that connection.
Renee Nalani thanks so much!
Wasn’t it Sora who had her Digimon first disappear?
Steph O you’re absolutely right, that me kind of misspeaking. What I sort of meant was that they’re the first of the characters we spent time with in the film (i.e. Izumi, Takeru, Hikari, Taichi, Yamato).
I caught that error during the edit and knew someone would bring it up. ;) thanks for the comment!
u are right u can see th ring shortly after the paritomn battel2
Thumbs up if you cried or teared up, thumbs down if you didn’t! 😢
I watched the last evolution 2 days ago and cried like a river. I rarely get tears up watching anything but Digimon was my first anime that I really fell in love with when I was a kid. I hope they get to united with their partner again.
I haven't had a good cry in a minute and Digimon did it for me
im tearing up while im typing this already...growing up with digimon and watching it ,,end'' and the sudden goodbye made me cry for over several minutes, was literally painful ...movie well done for sure.
Cried like a river...as a male in my 30s not ashamed to admit it. Digimon was always a part of my life.. I wasent the happiest pre-teen/teenager and the digidestined group were always such a great escape. If im blessed enough, will share Digimon with my kids one day. Still think there will be another movie though (25th anniversary?) for the old fans.
Kind of hard to tell how many show they didn't due to UA-cam doesn't show the number of thumbs down on a comment there.
see digimon is superior. Pokemon could never acheive this type of thing
That’s because we don’t get a story with Ash. All we have with him is an eternal 10 year old who constantly gets reset and does the same crap every season. Digimon we have a new cast every season. Ash is eternally a child. Digimon we get to see the kids grow up and move on into the future. Pokemon is a catch em all. Digimon focuses on the bond between partners. Now yes Ash has always had Pikachu with him but really think about how many times that little dude has got shafted: DP focused on Chimchar and Infernape proving his strength in the last fight with Paul, BW he got reset because of bullshit plot reasons, XY the focus was on Greninja and Ash-Greninja, and lastly don’t get me wrong (I love him, he’s one of my favorite Pokémon and I always choose him as my starter) but how many times has Charizard showed up to steal the spotlight for a battle Ash couldn’t currently win only to leave right after? Digimon has always stuck with the bonds between partners (don’t start talking crap about Frontier). Hell, tamers showed the kids feeling the same pain as their partners after a certain point. We get to see the adventure cast actually GROW up and go on to do or struggle with things we as everyday people can find relatable that we will never see with Ash.
Anyone who says Pokemon is better has either never truly watched Digimon, is in denial, or has brain damage.
Pokémon isn't meant to have a story at least not with Ash. Its all about battling and trading with friends and family. If you want a Pokémon series were the kids grow up I've heard the Pokémon adventures Manga does just that. Also if you look at the history of Pokémon it wasn't even supposed to last as long as it did. No one cares that Pokémon doesn't have a story again its all about the meta game. How do you folks still not understand this after 20 years? I don't care for anime and I love video games. Yet the even the Cyber Sleuth Stories managed to contradict themselves. Hackers Memory rids a lot of what was in the first game. I'd rather not watch a Digimon show that dose the same thing. Sad to here this movie did this to one of its own shows oh well. That's at least twice they've done this now.
P.S. A lot of the kids that grew up with Pokemon don't even watch the show anymore I don't even bother with it. I've moved on to Star Trek, Harry Potter, Star Wars.ect Can't wait for the Crown Tundra DLC for Sword and Shield that's going to be amazing.
@@KD-kb4wv bruh I read the manga of pokemon. I like it and I like Pokémon it's just by anime standards and videogame standards Pokémon is boring for me I dunno. Anyways please please don't get butt hurt I'm just saying that Pokémon physically cannot give us an ending like this or even if they did it wouldn't invoke the same emotions. So I'm just saying Digimon has more emotional value for me anyway
Pokemon could but that would require EFFORT and we all know pokemon can't put any of that into they're work
@@KD-kb4wv “no one cares that pokemon doesn’t have a story” that is solely your opinion and anyone who shares that opinion. Plenty of people still care about Ash’s journey since many of us have been around since his journey began. If no one really cared about the story then people wouldn’t have been excited for the possibility of Ash winning the Kalos league against Alain. Yet if you just casually strolled through social media or UA-cam recs you would have found many people around the time speculating that it was finally his time or the complaints that were made when it turned out it wasn’t. Pokemon started out as a game before it was ever adopted into an anime but so did digimon. I’m not saying every season of digimon is great, they’re not, but each season we get a new journey to to make a new opinion. With Ash all we ever get is the same old shit that for all his experience he shouldn’t make the mistakes he still does after so long or the fact there doesn’t seem to be a resolution. Hence why people get turned off from the anime in the first place. And if no one really cared about it then new seasons of the anime wouldn’t keep coming out.
Take Harry Potter, do you think it would be the same story if Harry never defeated Voldemort and just spent the rest of his life on the run looking for Horcruxes? No deathly hallows, no final battle, or epilogue. Just an endless search with no conclusion in site. Would that piss you off? Because it would piss off a lot of other people, but the simple act of being pissed off means you care. Each pokemon game is a new region with a new protagonist we never see outside of their specific game. The difference is that with Ash we’ve been able to go through every region to meet all of the different pokemon. But yet, where does it end? We know how every pokemon game ends, they’re all the same after all. You battle every gym, defeat the elite 4 and champion, and then become the new champion of the region yourself. We have never had that with Ash, someone who at times has battled opponents above his weight class and yet at the end of the day still wanders the regions with seemingly no end to his journey in sight. We still don’t even know specifically what being a Pokémon master entails after 20 years. And people have debated about the topic. Why? Because people CARE to know and speculate.
Just cause you don’t care about something does not mean that opinion is universally shared. People who don’t care about the anime fall into 2 categories: they either never cared to begin with or they just got tired of it all. And it’s people in this second category who after almost 20 years who got hyped about Ash winning the Kalos region.
I myself don’t care for any of sun and moon onwards. Doesn’t mean I am not fond of previous seasons or I wouldn’t tune in to see if Ash ever reaches a conclusion to his journey. And if you do the same? That means you actually care to do so.
The thing I always say “I will never outgrow Pokémon, I will never outgrow Dragonball”
I really like this.
It's a great parallel to life. When we have to say goodbye to people we thought would be around forever, it's devasting. Sometimes depressing. With our childhood hobbies, we long to be able to enjoy them without any sort of limitations and can resent our lack of being able to do so in certain parts of our lives. It feels awful.
But in that moment, we can never truly know or expect to find that hey actually it wasn't the end forever. It's true that we aren't always so fortunate but sometimes we are. And it's those times where the memories mean all the more. Cuz we know that there's always a chance to find a way back to what might not always be in front of you🌌
I'm that same way I watch Digimon as a kid stop for a while now that I'm 28 I went back to watching Digimon, playing Digimon games, and buying Digimon cards just like power rangers I will never stop watching Digimon again and some day I hope my future kids will love Digimon just like I do.
Also look at the ending of digimon 02 before the epilogue. Yukio Oikawa gets reunited with Datirimon as an adult :)
I like your explanation of the movie's ending.
When the Digidestined reunites with their digimon once more, I would prefer they do it by themselves, not through their kids as it would undermine the Digidestined.
You also have to realize that there’s still a 18 year gap between the movie and the 02 epilogue.
Still they can't forget it
I cried like there was no tomorrow with the Adventure finale. All those goodbyes broke me. But to be honest, the ones I wanted to see reunite again the most out of the 8 children and digimon were Mimi and Palmon.
I felt so effing sad when Mimi and Palmon didn't get to say goodbye like the others. And then Palmon running to catch on the bus? That whole scene is iconic, nostalgic, heartbreaking and I'll forever cry to it. Also this is why I freaking love Mimi and Palmon's reunion in episode 5 (I think) of Digimon 02💚💚💚💚
Watching your video put a lot into perspective. Thank you for your great summary and explanation.
I definitely agree with everything you say regarding the representation of digimon signifying our childhood... and how there are periods in our lives where we’re no longer in contact with our youthful selves. I just finished watching the movie and it was a real tear jerker, your analogy puts me at ease haha
This makes sense to me, I can watch it again and feel better about the ending lol 👍great video!
Thank you for this explanation. I have 3 plothole questions if someone can explain this to me. First, what happened to all the plot threads from Tri? Geni is good again with no comment and the lingering threat that was alluded to wasn't addressed. Second, how can anyone open a digigate (specifically Izzy in the beginning of the movie) this was supposed to be a D3 specific function that suddenly doesn't matter. Third, is there an in universe explanation for why this didn't effect Joe earlier? I understand the real reason the only people in the world who have are Tai and Matt is because they are the main characters but there are older Digidestined then them. If we take college as the cutoff point (Because this process is tied to maturity not age) then why is it when Joe found his direction in life and applied himself in college during and after tri this didn't affect him. Why has this seemingly never affected anyone in the world before? Izzy has a contact list of 99% of the Digidestined population in the world and not one of them posted on the group chat "Glowing ring has appeared, please help!" I understand the out of universe reasons but this makes no sense in universe and want to know if anyone has answers. Also when did cellphones become digivices?
Great video bro..i felt the same way about the ending....
i watched kizuna in august 2022 and it made me tear up man i had just graduated school and seeing the digidestined now the same age as me and living their adult lives man omfg the emotions
I didn't think this movie would tug on me so hard,but I watched it at such a pivotal time in my life,namely this morning. I'm 24 now and I have to say revisiting digimon after so many years really threw me back into my childhood. After watching this film,I realized the devs of this show really considered their fanbase. We were all small children and now we're adults and that's hard to cope with sometimes. Some days I still feel like I was 10 yesterday. I hope you all enjoyed the film, I know I did
Thanks for watching! And nice Warframe profile pic! :)
@@thedigiknow thank you for the thoughtful video,I believe we will all see our digimon again one day! And thank you!
Just finished the movie and literally in tears!! It was such a great movie. 😭Also I like your theory of how they may be able to meet again. That alone made me tear up. I just subscribed and look forward to more content! I will be watching digimon adventure 2020 soon! So glad to see people still interested in Digimon. ❤️
Honestly listening your explanation makes me cry again from this movie ! It's a very beautiful way to look at childhood and growing up !! Love Digimon for lifeeeee!
love your videos!! great explanation
i love your explanation, mate. I am in the late 20's now and I can relate to your explanation about growing up
Tai and Matt lost there digimon because they grown up
**Meanwhile**
*literally every adult digidistined character in Digimon Savers* : **Cough**
Thats the trick in savers. They arent destined. They chose to live and work with their digimon like friends. There is no destiny involved.
@@niklasstg6957 wait but you know what i realised... in the end of digimon 02 every old digimion character becomed adults got their dream jobs and their digimon were still there..... tf
My only gripe with this whole "the bond will break" thing is that the bond is so arbitrary. They dont DO anything that triggers the deterioration of the bond.
Yes they did as unintentional as it is thier daily lives as adults that started it
Great breakdown and great comparisons, the comparisons really hit home. Definitely gotta subscribe to the channel
If you watched Sora's scene closely her digivice is already grey and dead which means she lost hers before Tai and Matt did.
Please WATCH THE CREDITS Digifans... 02 ending is Canon in some way... The movie hints that directly
In the very very end of the credits scene we see some official documents given by Tai to the school. Once it's translated we see it's written there Tai is interested in politics and solution of increasing Digimon problems in the human's world. He believes there can be a way where both Humans and Digimon can live together in peace.... this clearly confirms he's going to be diplomat and reunite with Agumon Again.... Same goes for Matt.... please watch credits you' ll see He's definitely going for his 02 Ending.... Also Davis (Daichi) is working in a restaurant to learn how things are getting done... others are also in the same/similar directions showed in 02's ending... they don't need to push everything to the in front of our eyes... they did hint 02 Ending is Canon in their way. Also Yamato (Matt) and Taichi say they are going to find a way to reunite with their partners again in the last scene before the credits... What should writers do more than this? Seriously lol.... they will be reunited 100% again 👍
Yep! Just to clarify are you replying to my vid or the other comments? Because it sounds like you and I are on the same page!
@@thedigiknow I meant the comments most of the people in every video and sadly most of the youtubers believe writers didn't add anything to confirm 02's ending as canon... but actually the hints were already there I don't know what they could do more than this
Alperen AYMAN gotcha!
isnt Izzy already doing that stuff, to make both worlds balanced
@@alperenayman620 Wow, you sure right, So do you do think they will be a sequel after all? I'm pretty sure even the producer even said that even it's quote on quote "The End" There is still much more story to tell for the Digidestined.
Great video! thank you for this
My digivice 1 light countdown remaining
My partner: what will u do tomorrow
Me: ill guess im gonna be a twitch streamer
Digivice return to normal
My partner: bruh
I know it's been 2 years now but still sad to see.... also Sora's digimon was probably the first to go. I think that it was shown in the intro part of the movie were we see an already frozen digivice.
This makes perfect sense, thank you so much. You made me cry more but you explained it perfectly!
Also love the video hard work and perspective keep up the awesomeness
SPIILER!!!
Just realized, Someone's digivice also cracked and turned into stone just like Taichi & Yamato's
Who's?
@@Utuberj0sh Sora
Spoilers
It was Sora
Hers was the first. She grew up more than the group and decided she wasn’t going to fight anymore in the Anniversary Short.
Soldier Zero I feel like her Japanese voice actress passing away also had something to do with it.
This ending was proper, and the fact that the sound was low and calm in the final fight and last moments felt just right. It was a proper send off, and it was in a way our own good bye.
👍👍👍👍👍👍
7:15 ... a hat 😊
btw a great video, i hope for more movies/series of digimon in future
Made perfect sense!! Great video
In the opening you see Sora’s digivice already almost out of time which is why she tells Piyomon that they won’t fight with the others. Sora was actually the first to show signs and the first to lose her partner from the original crew.
Where ? I didn't notice it ....her digivice is only shown once right?
I am 30 and my childhood still stick with me
👍👍👍33 here and still love the original Digimon!
Thank you so much for making this video
This makes so much sense now that you've mentioned it. I'm really looking forward to any new Digimon projects related to the character development of the original digidestined and their partners.
[This is only my personal opinions]
There's 3 fact that I think it was worth to explain, 1) Why is Meicoomon back? 2) How did Sora lost Biyomon? 3) What happened after the movie?
1) Why is Meicoomon back?
- If you have watched Tri - 6, you will hear a digivice beep sound at the end of the movie. It is said that it was Meiko's digivice beep sound. And I saw a reddit thread says that the Director did confirm it was Meik's digivice, and left viewers to think about the rest of the story. In my opinion, Meicoomon was revive at that time.
2) How did Sora lost Biyomon?
- Well if you watch the opening scene when the music begin, u can see Sora's digivice is already in Count Down and left few lights left. And during the night of battle, Biyomon ask Sora if it is ok if Sora doesn't go to the battle, Sora held tight Biyomon saying she just want to be with her. After Taichi blow the whistle, Sora holding her digivice (turn to stone). So Biyomon has fated during the battle.
3) What happened after the movie?
- During the ending credits, you will see that each of the digi-destined has live on with their own lives. But did you noticed why some digi-destined has their digimon and some doesn't? For example, did you see all the 02-Digi-destined (include Takeru and Hikari) have their digimon? And the rest 01-Digi-destined such as Joe, Mimi, Koshiro didn't have their digimon? Properly a spoiler that indicate their digimon have faded away as well. Not sure though...
I'm not 100% sure what I said is true but I just want to share with everyone my personal opinions. :) Thanks for reading.
PS: Sorry if my english is not good
Was thinking about this and how it does lead to the 02 finale. Yes, by the end of this it is established that as adults were have reached our potential and we will no longer have the ability to have Digimon partners. But, remember what Genai says, that you may be with your digimon again if you have untapped potential. Notice how at the end 02, they all have kids and their digimon. I know of no other way to dive into untapped potential than to start a successful and loving family...the message being that you must move on with your life if you are to be re-united. I do think that we will get another movie showing the digidestined re-united with their partners, but it wont be them that save the day this time. They are done with their adventures, but that dosent mean they wont be reunited and help in some way.
Man, Digimon has a way of hitting you right in the gut, dosent it?
Man you said exactly what I was telling a friend of mine right after seeing the movie! We are on the same page man!
Comment with any questions you had after watching the movie! I’ll try and put together some kind of “I answer your Kizuna questions” video!
Why is Gennai dressed in white and friendly again?
Great breakdown man! This definitely makes sense just wish the film was a bit more clear with the execution at the end. Regardless I enjoyed the film a ton!
Interesting theory, I could see it making sense like that. It does make me wonder if the ending was what made Hiroyuki Kakudo exit production due to the story breaking the established canon. If it wasn't the sudden revelation of Digimon fading away then I wonder what issue could have been.
Facts! Facts! 😭😭😭😭😭
Honestly, this ending that was foretold all those years ago is the only reason why I didn't become absolutely livid and give up on life at the Last Digievolution Movie. 😭😭😭😭😭 That they kept their promise. I get that distance makes the heart grow fonder but come on cutting it a little close there 😂😭😭
What's so wrong with having friends and others with you *as* you grow? What's so wrong with this ending? Isn't it the point in life to grow with others? Not grow up and abandon and forget everything that makes it worth while? Especially a bond as deep as Digimon.
Just because each ending was tear-jerking doesn't mean that despair has to or will win.
I love this video! I completely agree with you.
The ambiguity of the ending of Last Evolution in relationship to 02 is a bit irritating. I won't deny that. But I do appreciate what kind of story they were trying to tell, and leaving the question unanswered with a hint of hope is a good thing in its own way. It's better to leave in a little mystery, because it relates to the uncertainty of real life. It also allows us to identify with the characters better since we also don't get our desired "happy endings." Plus, I think we all enjoy reading/watching theories and fan-fictions, so bring 'em on, Internet!
This digimon series told us, "when you grow up, you lost part of yourself"
I'm completely agree with your life examples and explanation about the Digimon world. Is just a see you later and for us too. We gonna see more Digimon in the future.
This is a good analysis. And very accurate. I hadn’t been a fan of Digimon since I was 16 or so. I left it behind and literally said “I’m done with Anime that explore the “monster fighting” premise. I would rather watch anime with characters who fight for themselves” and stopped watching Digimon for YEARS…. With hopes of seemig more grown up….. Until the Pandemic. I reignited my love for this franchise in a BIG way. And now I’m a bigger fan of Digimon than I have ever been in the past. Real adulthood is realizing you can still show maturity while enjoying the things you enjoyed when you were young. Being in touch with your inner child makes adulthood easier, and learning how to balance both shows True Maturity. Tai and Matt will realize this in the future, which is how they end up reuniting with their Digimon later.
It's been aaaaages but i still cannot get over the 02 ending for certain characters. I remember everyone going bonkers online about it lol. Matt as an engineer? Sure ok. Astronaut though...? From what i remember hearing, they did that because there was this idea for Digimon in space that never went anywhere.
Mimi had a cooking show, right? Given how times have changed i think she'd be better suited to being a social media influencer lol
Anyway, i haven't seen the movie yet but i did watch the last scene and it really does hit hard. I do like how you explained it, though. I was super obsesses with Digimon when it was airing back in 2000, and i seem to come back to it every five years or so.
Now because their digimon are vanished, there will be plothole between this and digimon 2 ending. Honestly if become mature means that their digimon can't evolution that make sense because their potential already closed but make their digimon vanished is very radical move to make plothole.
I just saw this movie in cinemas here in México and I cried so much at the end 😭 your comment about them reuniting with their digimons once they have kids make sense. It was a bittersweet movie for sure, but so good!!!
You literally talked me into subscribing at the end of the video 😂👏🏽
Haha thanks and welcome to the channel :D
I was angry at the movie and the creators for lying that the 02 ending is canon, but now I get it.
Your theory is probably theirs, and it's canon to me until they'll say otherwise.
One thing I want you to address in another video - Meiko and Meicoomon (from Tri). They've both appeared in the "fantasy world" created for digi-destined.
Was Meicoomon real?🤔
I think last evolution is one of the best Digimon movie...better than any Digimon movie in their storyline...I like it.
Eossmon sealed out digidestined that have a desire to see there digimon again. Meikomon for sure exists Iean it was a version of a digimon in connection to the digital world (its been a hot minute since I've seen tri) but I do think all the digimon lost are reborn at some point and can reunite with there partner
If you have watched Tri - 6, you will hear a digivice beep sound at the end of the movie. It is said that it was Meiko's digivice beep sound. And I saw a reddit thread says that the Director did confirm it was Meik's digivice, and left viewers to think about the rest of the story. In my opinion, Meicoomon was revive at that time.
Producer confirmed that 02 is canon in Adventure universe...sort of a back ended way of making a happy ending. Do I think there will be another movie...likely (25th anniversary ideas? Kizuna did well with fans from financial perpesctive).
@@scottallen3907 I don't know. With the reboot being a thing, I am not sure if they will continue with the original series timeline. I will say this, I didn't exactly like 02's ending, it was way too rushed, and it didn't feel earned, and the jobs the characters got didn't really make sense to me. Kizuna, I felt, was more dramatically appropriate.
