Countdown reached zero, the leaked silhouette is legit -

Half of me wants this to be a Fumoffu type spin off.

Forget about the Digital world and real world reaching impending doom; make a comedy involving the kids and their digimon getting up to no good.
 
Holy crap withthewill still exists. I haven't been there since the original Savers run in Japan.

They've been around for a LONG time. They were originally made up of elitists (who had quite the ego) from the Pojo forums, and fans considered them like gods because they knew some Japanese to translate a bit of stuff like TCG :/ I went there fir a short bit once people started leaving Pojo, and I didn't like it (I think it had a different name too bad then).

Ah yes, back to the beginning of the fandom... I miss that Pojo forum! So many memories...
 
I wonder how many episodes this will be?

I imagine it will be the usual for Digimon if this is their next big Digimon series. So 48 min, 50 - 54 max (if they want it to reach Adventure/Zero Two levels)

I only wanted them to retcon the ending of 02, not the whole of 02.

I'm hoping they have still done that and that 02 kids are in it but just won't get the spot light much.

We'll see whenever Toei decides to grace us with more info.
 
Can't remember a single thing from the first series but man i'm fucking hyped.

Do you have an American Netflix account? If so, go catch up, NOW! (Preferrably in Japanese so the new show will make a bit more sense and won't be as drastic a jump in voices/dialog/etc)

I don't want them to retcon all of 02, and I don't think they will, cause I am pretty sure it was the most popular Digimon season.

02 had some good ideas, but was mostly brought down due to the wrong cast to project those ideas on.
 
I hope they bring up the dropped storyline point from "His Master's Voice" (Episode 13 of 02)

I still am annoyed that they dropped the ball with that one.

In other news, I am rewatching Adventure/02 in Japanese now. I've watched select sections of Adventure in Japanese (and first ep of 02), mainly some sections with Vamdemon (such as Angewomons evolution and the return of Angemon) plus I've played the PSP game so I figured, might as well watch the whole series in Japanese.

From what I've seen/heard/etc, I like both versions though it also highlights some of my issues with the dub such as having to talk in every scene that didn't previously have voices in them. And the whole "Can't mention death" thing (ie pumpkinmon and Gotsumon) despite the fact that Wizardmon not only got killed but they never tried to hide that.

But yeah, still enjoy the dub version though but I'm enjoying what I've seen of the JP version :D
 
In case anyone was wondering...

From left to right Joe, TK, Kari, Tai, Matt, Sora, Izzy, and Mimi. (American names.)

Actually, I find it was only a dropped storyline in the dub. The dub script in 02 was probably one of the worst in anime that I can recall (besides the atrocious Digimon: The movie). The whole Dark Ocean was made MORE relevant in the original version. Dagomon was never really meant to be a plotline (THANKS DUB NARRATOR GUY!!) but just a call out to Lovecraftian lore. The Dark Ocean itself was talked about a lot more in the sub, rather than just little snippits here and there in the dub.

I just rewatched 02 on Netflix and with most of the dub dialog still in my mind, geeze it was quite a difference :/
 
There's some big TV writer who got her start writing on the dub of 02. Let me see if I can remember, it was quite funny seeing that credit.

EDIT: Adele Lim, who showran Star-Crossed and is on Reign. What a start. And she wrote on Tamers.
 
The Tamers writers should have been the breakout stars. Hell, Steve should have realised he had a handle of the whole writing thing and dropped the mic! No way he was going to top doing Guilmon, Kenta and HYPNOS-dude-whose-name-I-forget in the same show.

(OK, slight exaggeration there, but his episodes were gold.)
 
I still say, one of the more stupid things they did was connect Tamers to Adventure by acting like it was a TV Show in their Universe. AFAIK, that wasn't in the Japanese version.

That said, Tamers had Renamon, Guardromon (in a good guys role) and iirc, it had all four sovereigns rather than just Azulongmon like 02 had. All stuff I liked :D

Kinda wish they expanded more on the Sovereigns in 02 and showed them all but ah well.

Also, think I mentioned this before but where the hell did the device that holds the eggs come from? Remember reading it on the wikia and it said they were earth devices that the Sovereigns didn't expect them to have but then I remember seeing the new kids get theirs from the eggs/Digivices themselves via flash of light thing.

That + Gennai just becoming Young again still confuse me. Seemed so random and unexplained/out of place.
 
This might answer a good number of questions. Another throwback to my Digimon forum days (as the guy that made this site was a regular there) and often we were plagued by what were known as "Questions of Doom" since the SAME questions were made over and over (THANKS DUB!! ...well, for the most part.)

FUCK YES! REALISTIC BODY PROPORTIONS!

Seriously, I hate how comically large their feet are in the first two pictures.

Wow, laying it all out like this... my emotions! God, I'm so hyped. Digimon was my jam when I was a kid, can't wait for this!

And I love the look of the new designs (well, what we can see of them). Much more realistic proportions, it's a good look.
 
Can't wait to see what the new animation looks like. I watched S1 this year, loved it, but the battle animations are simplistic and reused a lot.

Wow, nostalgia hit me hard now. ;-;
 
For anyone that hasn't seen it yet (to help not get shocked from the voices/changes of the new show for those that may be going from dub to sub, and to check it out in glorious uncutedness with an awesome OST) and if you have access to America Netflix, do yourself a favor and check out Adventure and 02 here :) Some dubtitles that vary from episode to episode, but still :) Glad I did rewatch 02 recently with this new season coming out!

(Oh, and do watch Tamers too while you're at it :p) Catch up time!

That's weird I always thought Izumi was shorter than Takeru.
 
Huh, is he really? I always thought he was just more mature. It's possible, then. Depends on what year the others are.

In 02, while everyone was in middle school, Joe was writing High School entrance exams. He is the same age as the other older kids though. This was in the Japanese version.

In the English dub, the older kids were in High school and Joe was preparing to go to college.
