Plot

edit

Five years after the events ofDigimon Adventure tri.,Taiand the other DigiDestined are approaching adulthood; however, Tai andMattstill remain undecided about their future goals. The DigiDestined later meet Menoa Bellucci, a professor atColumbia UniversityinNew York City,and Kyotaro Imura, her bodyguard. Menoa claims that Eosmon is targeting DigiDestined around the world by robbing both them and their Digimon partners of their consciousness. With Menoa's help, Tai, Matt, Izzy, T.K., and their Digimon fight Eosmon on the Internet.

When Tai and Matt fuse their Digimon into Omnimon, their form falls apart, allowing Eosmon to escape. In the real world, Tai and Matt find countdown rings on their Digivices. Menoa explains the Digivices are powered by the infinite potential of children, and because Tai and Matt are growing up with their potential fulfilled, they have a time limit before they are separated from their Digimon forever. She also warns them that Digivolving will accelerate the countdown. While Izzy examines Eosmon's gems, Matt suspects Imura is involved with Eosmon, and asks Davis, Yolei, Cody and Ken to investigate Menoa's job in New York. Meanwhile, Gennai visits Tai and Agumon, corroborating Menoa's statement.

After Eosmon leaves Mimi unconscious, Matt gives Tai and Izzyprepaid mobile phonesout of suspicion they are being tracked and also shows them a news article revealing that Menoa used to have a Digimon partner. As Matt continues to investigate Imura, he learns from Davis' group that Imura's identity is fake and Eosmon's data was found on his hard drive, deducing that he is the culprit. Izzy is sent a link to a live stream video of T.K. and Kari held hostage, prompting Tai and Matt to rescue them, while Joe goes missing. By the time they arrive, T.K. and Kari are already unconscious from Eosmon. On the way, Matt confronts Imura, who reveals he is anFBIagent investigating Menoa, and he realizes that Menoa orchestrated the kidnappings and Eosmon as a distraction to target Izzy for the list of DigiDestined. Realizing this as well, Izzy texts Tai with the coordinates to Menoa's location in the Digital World, before she renders him unconscious.

In the Digital World, Menoa confirms that she lost her Digimon partner, Morphomon, prematurely from growing up, and discovered Eosmon's digi-egg during the recent aurora. To prevent the other DigiDestined from experiencing loss, she has captured their consciousness to allow them to be with their Digimon partners as children forever. Menoa sends a swarm of Eosmon clones to the real world to kidnap more DigiDestined, sparking battles worldwide. Tai, Matt, and their Digimon resolve to stop Menoa even if it quickens their separation, and Agumon and Gabumon fuse into Omnimon to fight her and the Eosmon clones. After Eosmon digivolves to its Mega level, it cuts Omnimon into pieces, causing it to split again. Tai and Matt are assaulted by the DigiDestined and their Digimon partners, but Tai awakens and turns them back to normal with Kari's whistle. While the DigiDestined and their Digimon partners join the battle, Tai, Matt, and their Digimon make one final Digivolution, forming Agumon (Bond of Courage) and Gabumon (Bond of Friendship). The two Digimon defeat Eosmon, with Menoa finding closure with Morphomon.

After the battle, Imura arrests Menoa. Tai and Matt spend their remaining time with Agumon and Gabumon respectively, until they vanish and their Digivices turn into stone. The next spring, Tai and Matt move on with their lives and pursue their dream careers, under the belief that they may see their Digimon partners again in the future.

The Japanese voice actors from theDigimon Adventure tri.OVA series returned to reprise their roles, as the cast from the 1999 TV series was not retained in 2015 due toToshiko Fujita's health.[27][28]As was the case with that series of films, the DigiDestined characters fromDigimon Adventure 02(now young adults) were recast with new actors while their Digimon retained their original actors. The English cast fromDigimon Adventure tri.,which reunited several voice actors from the original series, reprised their roles with two recast roles with Nicolas Roye replacing Vic Mignogna as Matt and Kate Higgins replacing Philece Sampler as Mimi. As for the Digidestined and their Digimon fromDigimon Adventure 02,all characters were recast to new actors, except Ken, Veemon and Wormmon who retained their original actors.

Development

edit
Director Tomohisa Taguchi.

A new film project was announced on July 29, 2018, as part of the series' 20th anniversary.[36]The film, titledDigimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna,is directed by Tomohisa Taguchi and written by Akatsuki Yamatoya, featuring animation byYumeta Company.[37]It was then teased on Toei's YouTube film account that Toei Animation is producing the film, and the rest of the staff and cast are returning to reprise their roles.[38]It premiered on February 21, 2020.[39]

Development forLast Evolution Kizunastarted in 2017, whilstDigimon Adventure tri.was in the middle of airing. It was made as the staff realized theDigimon Adventureseries was the most popular part of theDigimonfranchise as a whole after the positive reception toAdventure tri.,so they decided to make anotherAdventuremovie for its 20th anniversary. Toei aimed the main cast to become far more likable as characters. While the teenagers were known as heroes in television series, they had yet to mature in the narrative to be appeal more to the audience.[40]

On May 28, 2018, original Director ofDigimon AdventureandDigimon Adventure 02,Hiroyuki Kakudorevealed he had quit the staff ofDigimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizunaafter something was approved that he claimed was incompatible with what the previous series had established.[41]On September 20, 2020, Producer Yosuke Kinoshita stated thatDigimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizunais in continuity withDigimon Adventure,Digimon Adventure 02,Digimon Adventure 02: Digimon Hurricane Landing!!/Transcendent Evolution!! The Golden Digimentals,andDigimon Adventure tri..This included the end of the final episode of02,set in 2028, where the DigiDestined are adults.[42]

Before the film's release in the U.S.,Comic Book Resourcesheld an interview with Executive Producer Yosuke Kinoshita regarding the franchise itself and what he wanted the fans to take away from the film. During the interview, Yosuke stated, "As we go through life, I believe that it is not only success and joy that makes you grow as a person but also overcoming failure. Hard and sad realities are what keeps us alive. I'm sure there will be a lot of obstacles in the future, but let's go live our lives forward strongly! This is the message that we are trying to convey."[43]

North America

edit
Joshua Seth, who voiced the main characterTai Kamiya.

The North American release ofLast Evolution Kizunahad continued the strategic positioning established byDigimon Adventure tri.(2016) in the U.S., handled byToei AnimationandShout! Factory,which features slight differences from the Japanese direction: among other aspects, the project once again featured some of the veteran voice actors from the 1999 TV series, to allow a generation of viewers to reconnect with the series.[44][45][46]The aim was to relaunch this dynamic on a target that was more intergenerational and family-oriented than in Japan.[47][45][48]The success of theDigimonTV series on platforms likeHuluplayed a crucial role, forJoshua Seth(Tai), "without [the support of the fans], the producers would never have invested time money or resources to creating newDigimon".[49]Last Evolution Kizunawas well received commercially in the United States, performing well in both digital and Blu-Ray sales, and became the best-selling anime title upon its release, demonstrating clear fan loyalty and a degree of benevolence among customers in relations that has bolstered the confidence of decision-makers for new long-term projects in this specific market.[48][49][50][51]This tour de force was then emulated by various countries forKizunain 2021, after several years of hesitancy due to the franchise's drop in notoriety in Japan.[44][52][53][54]— Toei has presented projects such asDigimon Trito professionals from many countries for several years in a row, without finding any real business.[55][56][57]Toei Animation has brought back some of these prolific voice actors, well known for their work atDisney,in cartoons and iconic works for theDigimongeneration.[45]

During the production of the English dub,Brian Donovanwas supposed to reprise Davis Motomiya. Unfortunately, he was unable to because of a fault in his home studio, and the role was recast with Griffin Burns.[58]Neil Kaplanwas similarly unavailable to reprise his roles as Hawkmon and Aquilamon due to bad timing and tight deadlines; he was replaced by Christopher Swindle.[59][60]The rest of the English dub production began around February 2020 and finished up at the end of spring. The majority of the cast recorded their sessions from home studios due to the ongoing pandemic. Donovan and Kaplan, who were absent from this feature due to the pandemic, returned in the sequel,The Beginning.The sequel was announced atNew York Comic Confor a near-simultaneous theatrical release in the U.S., with its Japanese premiere.[61][62]

In Japan, the film was released on February 21, 2020[6]in 48 theaters, then in 61 theaters from its fourth week in March, due to a number of postponements caused by theCOVID-19 pandemic.[63]Set in the same continuity of the first twoDigimontelevision anime series, the film serves as the finale to the originalDigimon Adventurestory.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic overTokyoand the whole of Japan, a state of health emergency was gradually applied in various regions; to the whole of Japan from April 7 to 16, 2020, and was extended in several regions. From May 14 to May 25, 2020, while the state of emergency was relaxed in some regions, it was progressively re-imposed throughout Japan until the end of July. Causing gradual shutdowns, cancellations and postponed screenings of the film over the weeks due to the closures (and reopenings) of Japanese cinemas, the film has its final showing on July 23, 2020,[64][65]"It's frustrating, but we never thought the film would be shown for so long and that people would respond in this unimaginable situation, with lots of feedback from you. We hope the day will soon come when we can see the film in cinemas in better conditions and in the way we want", communicated the film's social network.[66]Two sets of theDigimon Card Premium Editioncard game were produced for the film's release and sold in selected cinemas showing the film on February 21, 2020, followed by limited pre-orders on Bandai'sPremiumwebsite.[67]

Reception

edit

Last Evolution Kizuna,while unnoticed by cinema reviewers, received very positive reviews from pop culture and anime media when it was released in the US. European film critics, though, were more severe.

Kambole Cambell fromIGNgave the film a 9/10, stating, "An impressively bold and mature final installment,Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizunarealizes the full potential of its cast and the power of a definitive ending, driven by an inventive visual sensibility, exciting set-pieces, and heart-wrenching emotional stakes [...] It's ultimately bittersweet, but the film's embrace of change is tackled with inspiring optimism, positing that moving forward shouldn't be treated as a loss, but as a new direction, definitively closing this chapter ofDigimon Adventurewhile looking forward to what new things might spring from it. "[21]Common Sense Mediagave the film a 4/5, stating, "This is a bittersweet coming-of-age story that manages to transcend the expected anime battles and action. For those coming into the movie without knowing all of the ins and outs of this particular anime universe, the movie's heady themes of life and death, growing up and moving on, and making your own way in the world are poignant, universal, and relatable."[82]

Polygon's Rafael Motamayor gave the film a positive review and felt that the editing, which used the conventions of the TV series, might could put off newcomers, and that the film was aimed at "millennials who grew up with the franchise and want a little more than constant battle scenes", commenting on the tone being "much more melancholic than most modern anime movies and stating," It's a love letter not only to the entire franchise, but to those who have grown up watching these characters throughout the years. This is the conclusion fans have been waiting for [...] providing a nice returning point for fans who may have skipped the underwhelmingTriseries of films. "[83]Comic Book Resourcesalso gave the film a positive review, stating, "Last Evolutionisn't a cinematic masterpiece (no surprise there) but what it is a masterclass on how to age a long-running, commercial property with grace and bring it to a conclusion with dignity. The original DigiDestined's journey, as we once knew it, is over, but this isn't a story about putting away childish things. "[20]

Critics praised the film for its themes of adulthood and, "letting things go."[83][82][21]Daryl Harding ofCrunchyrollstates that, "itisabout growing up and letting go. For the characters, it's hard to be a DigiDestined and still have a job – apparently saving the world doesn't pay well. It's not about them choosing what to focus on, it's about them learning how to juggle both responsibilities without cracking. "[84]The film drew comparisons toMamoru Hosoda'sprevious works on Digimon, as well as drawing comparisons toToy Story 3.[20][83][82][21][84]The production as a whole was well received, though the reduced representation of female characters was pointed out and deplored by Courtney Lanning for the daily Arkansas Democrat-Gazette[85]and Den of Geek.[86]

In his review, Christopher Farris ofAnime News Networkgave the film a C-, acknowledging its minimalist graphic charm and some interesting ideas, but criticizing the insincerity of this production "at odds with itself", citing unnecessary metatexts and several nonsensical plot points dragged out with "conceptual declarations hindering the pacing,", Farris also noted frustratingly uneven character development, stressing the sidelining of protagonist Sora. Regarding the English dubbing, he felt it was a "key selling point" for the film due to the effectiveness of the adaptation;[87]this was also the opinion of Courtney Lanning for theArkansas Democrat-Gazette[85]and Christopher Zabel of DoBlu.com, "a slightly different directions than the Japanese cast" which was well welcomed.[88]

In stark contrast, however, European reviewers were more critical of the film. For the European dailyEl Correo,it is an opus "that does not dare to describe with the necessary thoroughness the theme it tries to develop", and deplored the lack of risk-taking in its direction and codes, "Last Evolution Kizunareplays a tape already played "and gave the film a 1/3.[89]For Deciné21, it is a film that falls into the pitfalls of Japanese anime films "with repetitive passages and endless dialogue. Above all, it is aimed at fans, so newcomers will find it difficult to assimilate all the concepts of the series too quickly", while nevertheless praising "certain passages that are quite moving. In addition, the animation is of a high enough quality to be a surprise" and gave the film a 5/10.[22]The Italian film websiteMyMovies.itfound the codes of the original television product too much in evidence, "a typical example of animated films in cinema today, aimed at an ultra-specific audience that will master everything about their subject and, ideally, grasp every twist and self-reference", but praised the "more melancholic atmosphere than usual and a more mature awareness of the transience of things" and gave the film a 2.5/5.[23]The dailyEl Puntgave 2/5 to the film.[90]For Ray Laguna of Animacionparaadultos.es, whose verdict was based on "strictly cinematographic" criteria, attributed 7/10 to a film "not always very exciting [...] the plot development is a little conventional, it falls into a few melodramatic excesses - the denouement is already moving enough - and, probably for budgetary reasons, there are passages with limited animation", Laguna nevertheless consideredLast Evolution Kizunatouching enough for its audience of die-hard fans.[91]

Regarding audience reception,Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizunareceived recognition in various platforms and surveys. In Japan, readers ofAnime!Anime!magazine ranked it as the 14th best animated film of 2020.[92]Additionally, in a survey onBandai'sDigimonwebsite, it was in 3rd place out of 18 Digimon films, garnering 16% of the votes.[93]At theTokyo Anime Award Festival 2021,the film attained the 8th position among the 'Best 100' votes for 'Best Anime Film'.[94][95]Furthermore, it stood out in the "Letterboxd2020Year in Review",securing the 5th position among the highest-rated animations of 2020 by members.[96]Similarly, it ranked 5th among the 'Best Anime Movies Of 2020' onMyAnimeList,with an average rating of 8.18.[97]
