Production[]

Background[]

The series was officially announced in the March issue of Shueisha's V Jump magazine on January 20, 2020.[11] The project was developed independently and in the same period of time as the theatrical release of Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna, by producer Hiroyuki Sakurada and series director Masato Mitsuka, initially together behind Digimon Xros Wars and Dragon Ball Super. Matsuki Hanae and Naoko Sagawa are also the producers, Atsuhiro Tomioka is supervising the series scripts, Katsuyoshi Nakatsuru returns from Digimon Adventure to design the characters, Akihiro Asanuma is the chief animation director, Ryouka Kinoshita is the art director, Toshiki Amada is in charge of art setting.[12]

The opportunity of a reboot of the original Digimon Adventure series was hoped for since the days of Digimon Adventure tri. by Hiroyuki Sakurada, then producer of Dragon Ball Super. Sakurada expressed that the stopping point of the original Adventure series reached on its twentieth anniversary by Last Evolution Kizuna was "sad", but opportune to be able to propose, produce this reboot and deliver it in its current form, terming it as a proper Digimon entry that wasn't for the "children of the past", but for a new generation of children "And in order to introduce it to them, what better way to do it than to start from the beginning one more time with Digimon Adventure?" while mentioning the difficulties encountered to find the right timing back then, as the production team wanted to broadcast Digimon again on Fuji TV at 9 a.m. on Sunday morning "To secure that timeslot and produce content for it, you need the right timing and right elements for all sorts of things. Without such a close gamble, it’s difficult to produce a TV anime".[13] The nine o'clock slot on Sunday morning is the historical timeslot for the first five Digimon series on Fuji TV, from 1999 to 2007.

The original Digimon Adventure staff, working on the movie Last Evolution Kizuna, was not consulted for this project. Masato Mitsuka was referred as a director representing the younger generation, "He ensures the future of Toei Animation, as well as the rest of its staff." considered Hiroyuki Sakurada.[13]

Development[]

Hiroyuki Sakurada indicated that the highlights of this series would be the battle scenes, the "special trait" of each Digimon and how they would deal with the abilities of the Digimons that will attack them.[14] Atsuhiro Tomioka announced that as many different Digimon as possible will be shown, defining it as a festival "according to the situation, without holding back".[14]

"Our important task is to make sure things come across to the viewer as cool" stated Masato Mitsuka and specified that, although they were very enthusiastic about wanting to show off the pride of a Digimon of the Champion-level, they had trouble thinking about how to portray "cool" action sequences using the physics of the Digimon and especially Greymon, compared to Son Goku and his panoply of attacks in the director's work on Dragon Ball Super ; Mitsuka also claimed in August 2020 that the Digimon will reach the Mega-level very quickly, so in the long run, the time Agumon will actively spend as a Greymon will be gone ; calling Omegamon one of the most impressive "symbols" of Digimon to this very day with many derivatives. Its appearance and the when and how in the series were determined even before Mitsuka was brought into the project.[13]

In response to the Japanese media outlet What's In, calling the first three episodes "A start close to be a cinematic project, yet chaotic" by the story developments ; Sakurada said that the intention behind it was to display freshness without waiting. For Mitsuka, the overuse of privileged segments in the animation[15] for a TV anime was to show Greymon ; and Omegamon looking "cool" from its first fight, in order to leave just as much of a strong impression on those new viewers as on the old ones, a proper action-like depiction of it being uncommon in the previous projects, special circumstances protecting it for very particular moments, this production aimed to depict Omegamon as the miracle that appears after overcoming great difficulties "May each of its appearances in this new TV series be a chance to make it fight powerful enemies, while displaying his strength and a status of crisis saviour".[13] Mitsuka wanted to portray children actively fighting in the fights, a story in which the children participate with a keen awareness of what they have to save. "The children feel an obligation and a determination to "do something" [...] The central theme of the series' direction is "a person and a creature" in both battle and adventure. It is the "way of life" that seduces me, my vision of the link between the two".[13]

Producer Sakurada invited children to have the feeling of traveling through this anime "even if they are stuck at home [...] From the jungle to the oceans, discover a vast world without constraints"; by experiencing things that had become difficult due to the COVID-19 pandemic, in August 2020.[13] Atsuhiro Tomioka has been called to be the main screenwriter of the project, with the request of Toei Animation to take the manga Digimon Adventure V-Tamer 01 as a reference. "Of course, [Taichi] still works together with other allies, but we want him to be a heroic figure with a strong sense of responsibility and dependability. It's a willingness with the director and the production team to mix influences".[16]

The show premiered on April 5, 2020 on Fuji TV. Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna, "the last adventure of Taichi and Agumon", was still on the big screens and in promotion up to the end of July 2020, due to the shutdowns and postponements caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the closure of movie theaters.[17] In mid-2020, Toei Animation Europe listed Adventure for 66 episodes.[18] On September 2, 2021, a 67th episode was announced.[4] Two weeks later it was confirmed the series would end with 67 episodes and be succeeded by Digimon Ghost Game.[19]

Reception[]

Early responses[]

As the series is not only the reboot of the first generation, but also the first Digimon series to be simultaneously distributed around the world, the launch attracted a great amount of media coverage and critical reviews. First impressions of the series' debut episodes were mostly positive-to-mixed with production values being praised;[54][55] although criticized for noticeably recycled plot beats from previous productions and specifically the Digimon movie' Our War Game!, Joshua Graves of Comic Book Resources notes "When you recreate scenes directly -- save for a few minor alterations -- it comes across more as a disservice to fans."[56] Despite this praise, most critics were puzzled by the general approach and shared some concerns about the narrative,[57][58] possibilities of world-building,[59][58] character developments,[57] the way the show can keep the stakes presented meaningful;[57][58] and the series' potential for reaching a new audience due to the pace,[57][59][58] the lack of introductions and exposition[57][59] about the overall concept and the digivolutions as anything other than regarded as a "senseless plot boost" in this early stage;[56][13][58]

Polygon's Karen Han saw this reboot as not being aimed at a new audience, but aimed at mashing its existing fans’ nostalgia buttons in a minimum amount of time.[58] Still, the announcement and debut of the anime was encouraged by the qualities seen in the original series as an adventure developing emotional growth, its characters and their relationships to each other and themes relating to childhood, society and technology.[57][59][60] Digimon Adventure: is considered part of the reboots & revivals craze seen in the West and Japan in the early 2020s.[60][61]

Critical response[]

Digimon Adventure: received harsher responses and criticism through its run and, getting panned due to the overall structure, style, prioritization of the story and the lack of motivating ideas of the plot, as well as the absence of character, emotional and interpersonal dynamics developments,[62][63][64] "an absurd character psychology with no sense of wonder nor amazement";[65][66] and an excessive focus on Taichi,[67][63][64] sidelining the other characters in favor of "episode after episode of constant exhaustingly showdowns, fights and unearned power-ups".[62][63][64] Manga-News wrote, "Everything seems then artificial: The human-Digimon relationship exists only to bring some nekketsuesque situations and the new evolutions, only to bring some moneyshots".[66] Christopher Farris of Anime News Network stated that the writing tries to excuse a lack of development by saying the characters always had a defining destined relationship, as an excuse for consistently easy digivolutions, at-will, existing only to show power-ups that "we might recall" for characters that this iteration "counts on us to remember" to have any real interest or investment.[62]

Digimon Adventure: was named one of "The Worst Anime of 2020" by Anime News Network in their year-end selection.[68] Writing for Comic Book Resources, Laura Thornton stated that the show had a fatigued story, tiring not only for its characters but for the audience as well, with the single focus of creating spectacle through life-and-death battles; and wrote about the importance of the light-hearted episodes in the original series, but also with models such as My Hero Academia or Avatar: The Last Airbender; considering that constant spectacle of over-the-top fights "has long grown stale", Thornton also criticized how the series, reintroducing some talking Digimon after thirty episodes, portrayed the monsters essentially as victims who must be protected by Taichi rather than making them proper characters with a culture or unique problem.[64] Hannah Collins opined that this iteration has too often traded the adventure part and strong character work, which traditionally anchored each iteration of Digimon, for spectacle and near-constant separation of the main group.[63] Polygon felt that Masato Mitsuka's take lacked a sense of character, both in terms of the world it takes place in, and the characters themselves.[58] Manga-News considered it as a lazy and a hardly praiseworthy work for such prolific figures,[66] Anime News Network described the reboot as a failure and a wasted attempt, criticizing the lack of planning of the staff behind it.[68] Observed as an attempt to turn Digimon Adventure into action-packed genres and to expand marketing with ingredients similar and compared to what was done with the Dragon Ball franchise in the 2010s;[67][66] the commercial target was considered ambiguous, for an age group undecided by its marketing, a loss of singularity by picking up current production codes to address the youngest, and elements from the first productions that appear to only serve as "aesthetic figures" defying any coherence and purpose such as the characters from vintage, the Crests, the titles of old episodes, etc. to address its long-time fans; Manga-News then questioned the legitimacy of such regarding the intentions of Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna.[66] Digimon Adventure: was regarded as predicated on a nostalgia simplified to "mere style references", power-ups and a feeling of false-familiarity.[62][67][58]

As the forty-episode mark was reached; what were considered to be the first demonstrations of development and interaction would be observed in the first filler episodes of the series;[63] these episodes also received a more favorable critical reception for their more episodic, calm and humorous tone.[69][70]

Public response[]

Responses from fans and spectators would be observed by various media and the international broadcaster as very mixed through its run. Comic Book Resources observed that the first three episodes divided fans about the direction the reboot was heading in,[56] Daniel Dockery, senior writer for Crunchyroll expressed his understanding of viewers' disappointment due to, among other things, the excessive focus on Taichi and said that the series doubled down on the aspects that the creators found to be the most appealing "Namely the idea of Taichi as a hero and the Digimon as combatants. I understand it if isn't everyone's cup of tea".[71]

Manga-News perceived that newcomers of all ages had turned away from the series due to a lack of introduction and a narrative that discouraged even regulars, and felt that the anime took "its youngest viewers for idiots".[66] Promotional images of episode 38 "The Blazing Blue Friendship", depicting crucifixions; went viral; spreading via memes from fans and nostalgics.[72]

Although the producer's ambition was to bring the franchise back "for a new generation of children";[13] Toei Animation declared that the series "struggled to acquire new audiences of children" in May 2021. The official reason given was the COVID-19 pandemic.[73]

TV ratings[]

Six episodes can be seen in the TV Rankings of Japanese Animation: Episode 6 "The Targeted Kingdom", on July 12, 2020 (for 2.9% rating),[74] episode 11 "The Wolf Standing Atop the Desert", on August 16, 2020 (for 2.3% rating),[75] episode 40 "Strike! The Killer Shot", on March 21, 2021 (for 2.6% rating),[76], episode 58 "Hikari New Life", on July 25, 2021 (for 1.9% rating),[77], episode 59 "Bolt, HerakleKabuterimon", on August 1, 2021 (for 2.3% rating),[78] and episode 60 "Vikemon Ventures the Glaciers", on August 8, 2021 (for 1.5% rating).[79] Due to the spread of COVID-19, from April 26 to May 31, 2020, it was Kitarō (2018) that was temporarily rerun in the slot of Digimon,[80] the repeats of the first episodes of Adventure: and its pilot aired from June 7, 2020 with unranked ratings.[81][82]
