Digimon Adventure is a 1999 kids anime show. Twenty years later, it has become a classic so Toei decides to give us - people who most likely watched this show as kids - a huge dose of nostalgia and a beautiful end of story. But, surprisingly, Last Evolution Kizuna is much more than that. It is a movie full of allegory, passion and all kinds of emotions. And definitely far from a kids movie; it is aimed at a mature audience. It is a unique, flawless piece of art that will stay in our Digimon Adventure fans' hearts forever.

After being majorly let down by Digimon Tri, the Adventure series seems to have been given one last chance (maybe? And a new remake/spinoff in April?) to go out with a bang. Though it seems like the Adventure series has and will be milked like a Dairymon (there is surprisingly no cow Digimon to make this joke work) for the time being, this film does actually live up to its title and thankfully concludes with a level finality while also calling back to many of the things that made us fall in love with the franchise all those years ago.

I am a filthy, dirty digimon fan and have been since I was a kid. I know that inherently, this is probably a bad movie if you aren't a fan. But is meant for the fans who have been here since the start. I watched the movie first, in '08, then the original adventure, adventure 02 and tamers. This was built for me. I cried, I laughed, I yelled in shock, I shouted about my waifu Kari and my husbando TK. Quality content all around. I enjoyed every minute, and that is in the end, what matters. No matter how high-brow my anime tastes get,

This is a great movie and a beautiful sendoff to this franchise and the kids who grew up with it. There is honestly nothing else like it, other kids' anime don't have the guts to do an ending like this but this one nailed it. I loved how on character the cast was and how torn up Yamato and Taichi were about their future and their bonds.
I think the art-style of the movie is phenomenal. The animation is surprisingly very very good, they stayed true to the original designs and made the characters truly look like their older version from the first ... Jul 29, 2020
I was incredibly disappointed by digimon tri. I didn't have high hopes for Last evolution kizuna going on, but I was blown away.
The art is amazing and the battles are actually good, for possibly the first time in digimon adventure. The music is almost perfect and the the other audio is great. I can't really fault this at all. I am a little unsure how this syncs up with the adventure 02 epilog but I can't blame the movie for that. I grew up with digimon and have been an avid fan from the beginning. This is the first time in nearly 20 years I feel ... Jun 26, 2020
I might be a little bit more biased in my review as Digimon has been my childhood and i remember being a little kid finding episodes on early youtube back in 2010. After the last installment of the digimon tri series I was left a little disappointed but not wanting to accept the fact that my childhood series had completed tricking myself into thinking the series was good despite it being decent at best. After watching digimon kizuna, i was left crying at the end realising this was it. Its over. The plot story overall was very well constructed focusing primarily our two main protagonist

If there’s any show that can really get me with those childhood feels, its Digimon. I started watching the series when I was four from VCDs. The Filipino English dub I watched was kinda bad, but the action was great, musical was memorable, and the story was fantastic. It was one of the first kids cartoons I watched that took mature topics seriously, handling things like death, adoption, family drama and growing up in a blunt and accessible way for younger children.
The first Digimon series: Digimon Adventure however after three seasons (the last of questionable quality) is apparently ending with this final instalment of the ... Oct 5, 2020
WARNING! This won't be a long review(i know my people)!
Last Evolution is basically a 20y ani movie to wrap things up(even though it doesn't wrap up anything) If you are a person like many of us who is often hit HARD by nostalgia and doesn't like sad endings, then you have two choices: A)Prepare for your heart being torn apart or don't even watch it if you cannot take it ...

Looking at the movie objectively, overall I think they Toei Animation did a better job with Last Evolution Kizuna compared to the Tri series. However, the animation they started off with didn't hold up towards the end and you can really see the CG in the villain. The story mostly focuses on Taichi and Yamato which was a let down in its own ways, but the amount of detail they put into Taichi and Yamato's story makes up for it. If you haven't watched tri or adventures, you still can start with the movie. You do miss a lot of the back story and small

sorry if you found a lot of faults and Spelling errors cause english is not my native language. i watched the tri films and loved it, this film is great too .I had scattered feelings; At first I was Extremely happy and joyful because finally the heroes of my favorite anime, which were almost my age when I was little,Here, I am currently watching a series of them when they are in their teenage years and ...

Digimon Adventure Last Evolution Kizuna is a great movie for Digimon Adventure fans, specially those that, like me, were disappointed with Digimon Adventure Tri. Tri was a bit of a mess, with rushed and unexplained plot points and the spread out movie format was not a good idea imo. Last Evolution Kizuna feels like a much more coesive movie.
The art is great, with well animated batlles albeit a bit excessive use of CGI and the soundtrack is a huge throwback to the original series. It was really emotional hearing the original version of Butter-Fly playing at the begginning of the movie, about 5 years after ... Oct 18, 2020
This is what Tri should have been a love letter to the whole Adventure franchise (yes even S2 and S1/2 Movies gets included this time) Its a must watch for all Digimon Adventure fans!
I had big expectations when I saw that the S2 cast would get an actual role this time around (Veemon is my favorite Digimon) and I was not disapointed. While I will not mention anything from the plot I will just be listing what I enjoyed from the movie. Though I will be making a slight comment on something some people might consider a spoiler n the "Overall Section so just ... May 4, 2021
Digimon has a special place in my heart :3 I litterelly grew up with these characters, i’m actually the same age as Taichi and Yamato are in Last Evolution now :D And like them, i don’t really have a clear path/idea of where my life’s gonna end up. Seeing the Digi-destined grow up before my very eyes, and realizing that means i’ve grown up too really made me question “what does it mean to be grown up?”
I loved all the callbacks and easter eggs from older Digimon series and movies. My favorite callback was Agumon’s digivolution scene, seeing the original digivolution sequence that used to ... Sep 7, 2020
Well... Let me be honest here this is actually a good movie for life long fan of this series but it will be hard as hell for none digimon fan to enjoy this.
Due to a lot of thrown back and somewhat chaotic cut the story may look completely mess to non-fan base viewer and yet still not good enough to impress the fan base viewer. However I will be honest here... The story is really well written if we view it from adult perspective.. Why? Because if you are a fan of this series it mean you grown up watching it from maybe elementary school till ... Oct 1, 2020
Wasn't expecting much after Tri, but this movie blew my mind. There's a brief slowdown at the middle, but the rest is super nice. Every aspect of it.
Almost no new characters, lots of well-placed fan service, incredible animation, music, the plot is very good too and it focuses on only two characters, there's no filler, pacing is good, backgrounds and reall life locations are stunning, etc. Oh, and you don't really need to watch Tri. In fact, I guess both products were written at the same time with some kind of "Write this without caring about the other" directive. This was REALLY REALLY GOOD, as ... Apr 1, 2021
I've seen seasons 1 and 2 of the original Digimon show when I was in middle school, and watching this seventh film is really good.
Story wise the film connects well in between the climax and the epilogue of the final episode of Season 2. The writer of the movie did a very good job in keeping the story true to the epilogue of season 2. Love the design of Eosmon, while man vs. man situation in the movie dealing with a villain caught my attention while there was some sad moments. The journey will continue I know it. Watching the whole movie to the very end ... Sep 10, 2020
The story is well developed. It's really good to see the the choices each one made to their future. I felt their doubts and saddness, and I cried a lot. Actually, I still have some tears right now.
The soundtrack is amazing, it brings some memories from previous series. The art visual is so amazing and the fights were really good. I grew up with Taichi and the others, it's part of my life. It was a pleasure to watch their adventures and the maturity of each one. I consider the finale appropriate for the story we all have been accompanying for years. We will be ... Sep 4, 2020
So if we look at the story its to be honest really bland but maybe its just me and my emotional ass but this was really hard to watch in a emotianal way
i was just really hyped up at the start cuz there were good action scences but maybe it was the fact that i didnt expect things to come up like fricking guns or kidnapping (which if i think again didnt really made scence) it made me feel like oh shoot this is actually happening no i dont want that but you cant change the fact that time goes on like being an adult ... Dec 16, 2020
Simply put this is a loveletter to all of us original Digimon fans.Its a fun, exciting amazing ride but it also has its emotional heartbreaking moments. It is after all the end of an era. Its essentially the perfect way to end this amazing era.
I honestly would not need to write any more about this. It took me way to long to get around to watching it. I always put it off wanting to wait for the perfect moment to watch my final ride with these characters I had grown to love so much over, for me, nearly twenty years. And it was so worth ...

As a short preface to this review, I will say that Last Evolution's target audience is pretty obviously targeted towards those who grew up with the original Digimon Adventures as a child. As someone within that demographic (college to early adulthood) and has stuck with the series until now, I will mainly speak with that perspective and bias in mind, noting that the impact and emotional resonance of this movie will likely be somewhat diminished if you're not within that demographic
Characters (7/10): Easily the biggest highlight of the movie is seeing how Matt and Tai struggle to cope with adulthood. It's incredibly bleak and melancholy, ... |
