| So we have to ask why is Ken evil again? And where are the rest of the 02 group? And clearly the lady is in on it...the bitch. I hope next movie we start getting answers. Rosemon and Vikemon were awesome! 8/10 |
 |
| As bad as the last movie. At least they put the evolution secuences this time, that's a progress i guess. 6/10 |
| Boring af for me. But the ending was intense. 5/10 |
 |
| Pacing was bad and they focused WAY too much on Meiko and Meicoomon, although since now it seems that Meicoomon seems to be part-antagonist hopefully that'll shift. I'm glad Mimi got her time to shine though. Seeing Lillymon (my fave Digimon) and Rosemon was AWESOME. Not as good as the first, hopefully the next one will be more of an improvement. Sucks though since Mimi is my favorite character - would've preferred to see her in a better future movie. |

| Ken's struggling with puberty, that's the only explanation. But really-- Did they forget that Adventure 2 happened when they were making this orrr? |

| Hey guys, I don't know if it has been asked or even explained before but why was Leomon even alive again? In Adv 02 Wizardmon was a ghost-like identity instead of a Digimon, and I thought that was because it died while the Town of Beginnings was destroyed, just like Leo. Was it because it died in the real world instead? But then why wasn't Leomon part of Adv 02 at least once lol, it was such an important companion in Adv, no way the children wouldn't ask for help in 02 if it would have been possible. Maybe I've just missed something owo Also! I recently saw on the internet that the way Kaiser disappeared into data after he took Meikuumon looks exactly like the copy of Sora Nanomon created to lure Etemon in Adv did. So maybe the new Kaiser is a reserved copy from the time the original was around 3 years ago? I'm kinda digging that theory! EDIT: Found it (credits to lightofhikari.tumblr)   |

| I really liked the movie. Though it was more slice of life and drama oriented, It was still good. Loved the Mega evolution of Gomamon and Palmon, Hope we get to see the others Mega evolve too. I understand what Joe's issues were but I think they should have drawn out Hikari and Joe's scene, He gets over his issues with just a single line. Maybe an inspiring small speech would have been better :3 |
 |
| BTW, for ppls talking about Leomon and his death... I believe he may still come back, because after he was killed, Meicoomon opened up a "distortion" which leads to the Digital World. This means Leomon's data might have gone into that Distortion and to the Digital World. Leomon just can't be killed, he needs to be reborn countless times and die countless time for the sake of tradition. |

| Honestly, it's a good thing the Digimon franchise has a ton of long-term enthusiastic fans; otherwise these movies wouldn't make nearly enough to be a good investment. Needless to say, as a avid fan, I enjoyed the movie. ONLY because it was a continuation of the Digidestined story. But I just can't help but be UTTERLY ANNOYED about the lack of explanation about the 02 cast. Or, at least explain why the Digidestined aren't even the least bit curious as to where the 02 cast are. Even a lame explanation like a out-of-the-blue, totally-not-skipping-weeks-of-school camping trip would've been better than pretending they don't exist. Even if this was an alternative universe instead of a sequel (which can't be true b/c the Digidestined knew Ken by name and said "him again"), the least Toei could do was hint us in on that. And now, when the Digimon Emperor Ken Ichijouji himself appears OUT OF THE BLUE and kidnaps A PARTNER DIGIMON, NO ONE even wonders for more than a few moments about the situation (a situation in which I can't even pinpoint a question the DIgidestined would be wondering because WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON WITH THE 02 CAST) And, yes, I understand that it was the end of the movie and "there wasn't enough time to get in-depth about Ken". But, considering that Ken was the person who kidnapped Meicoomon, sealed himself up in another dimension, fought Palmon and Gomamon with Imperialdramon (meaning that Daisuke was somewhere nearby), AND messed Meicoomon up (and I really doubt Koushirou wasn't about to put two and two together), I'd think the Ken situation would be more addressed than a simple "Him again...? Why?" Like, legit, that was the most confusion over Ken the Digidestined showed the whole movie. Yeah, this has turned into quite the rant. But, seriously Toei, please explain the goddamn situation. About the whole "surpassing darkness will bring greater power" or whatever, that's ridiculous. Back in season 1, Taichi and Yamato didn't have any "surpassing darkness" moments when they were about to warp-digivolve; it was thanks to Angemon and Angewomon piercing them with special arrows. Oh, and, as a nitpick, please bring back those warp-evolution animations, Toei. That's the least you can do in improving the evolution sequences. Otherwise you're cutting out half the hype. I don't know if I should be happy about the one consistency in the show or sad about Leomon dying yet again. And yeah there's so much more I could rant about (like, Joe's 5-second change-of-heart, killing Imperialdramon, the low production values, etc. etc. etc.) but I'll just leave the rest to the thousand other discontent Digimon fans. ;) |

| And still gatomon doen't get to evolve, I feel sorry for that poor thing |
 <-click |
| Poor Leomon, he got killed again. Meicoomon is evil? What we know for sure is that Himekawa isn't what she pretends to be. Jou was annoying as hell, at least he showed up in the end for the fight. I don't think that's the real Ken. |
 |
| Watching this movie wants me to know what happened in the past series, but it would took long time to watch them all. from what I can remember, I watch adventures and 02, but I almost forget the entire character and storyline (I recall some of them when I googled). is there anyone here care to explain to me in a simple way about their past, I very appreciate it. |
| Since the moment Leomon appeared I knew he would die (like it has been tradition in the Digimon franchise). I was surprised he managed to survive Imperialdramon, but then Meicoomon gone bonkers and things went as I expected. You simply can't have Digimon without Leomon dying. The Mega Evolutions to Vikemon and Rosemon looked lazy, but at least the Mega phase isn't exclusive to just Agumon and Gabumon (one of the things I disliked the most in Adventure). I also enjoyed the final fight, I mean, it's not ufotable and it has a lot of QUALITY moments (it's Toei, for fuck's sake), but it was better than that underwhelming fight against Alphamon in the previous movie. The reaction of the Chosen Children to the situations are also quite jarring. They killed Imperialdramon and nobody showed some emotion over the fact that they probably murdered their friends, let alone what Davis situation was. At least they showed some reaction to Digimon Emperor, but only a bit of surprise. I also expected more of TK, considering (if I remember right, since I watched 02 time ago) he had a lot of grudge against the darkness in the previous series. Here, he is pretty much a mannequin who does nothing, not even his interaction with Kari are interesting. Joe's angst was kinda annoying, but at least it pretty much ended in this movie and he will (hopefully) take more part in the action with his friends. This chapter raised a lot of questions (what happened with the cast of 02, why Ken is Digimon Emperor again, if that Imperialdramon was actually Veemon+Wormmon or if it was just a clone, what Himekawa role in this is, considering that suspicious smile when Leomon is killed...) who I hope will be resolved in the next movies. |

Yeah, that's what i'm liking from the Tri series. So far the original digidestined are doing fine. I hope Joe sets his mind finally and regains the semi-leadership he once had (being the oldest and such) |

| The new two evolutions were the best of this time!!! |
| Evil Ken is back and Leomon bite the dust again. A surpr The movie was ok overall, but I would've wished for more relevant moments amidst all the fun. Still think that the character development was decent, especially for Joe. The last segment with the fight against Imperialdramon was dope, tho. Although the evolutions didn't look that great, even the original TV series did it a lot better, but the soundtrack and action brought back some sweet memories. God, I was so little when I've watched the series for the first time. I still wonder what brought Ken to act as the Digimon Emporor again and if that was the "real" Imperialdramon, if so, then where is Davis? I would like to see him and the other 02 DigiDestined again too. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| The teenage drama and problems make this show much more than it is :D |
| Okay, stop. Stop stop stop. Is this going to be a thing? This whole "good beginning, okay ending, terrible ending that makes you want to double facepalm"? Because that's twice now that when it gets to the actual big bad fight that Tri craps the bed and becomes almost unwatchable. |

| Dat egg.Dem eggs. Ogremon. Elecmon. Leomon. Butter-fly! Meiko and Meichan. Taichi and Hikari. Mimi. Onsen. Gomamon. lol at the digimon saying yay then being shushed. Just like on the train back then. What an ending. It was expected, but they really killed Leomon and in such a cruel way. No one cried for him. Now about that Ultimate shinka. That was hype along with the fight. Mimi had that F everyone energy. Rosemon oppai and booty were on point. And dat oppai jiggle on Rosemon. The first oppai jiggle in Adventure. Can't wait to see Angewomon now. I love the Shimane no computers callback from Bokura no War Game considering I watched it right before Tri. Dat Seven Tri. version is so good. Lastly, 1 month after this movie aired, something terrible happened that greatly affected the Digimon franchise. Seven Tri version was the last time.... |
| If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have). |
| Honestly, I just don't bother with continuity at this point because franchises like Digimon are bound to have some inconsistencies so I really just don't give a fuck anymore over stuff that happened in Adventure 02 that contradicts Tri so whatever I guess XD Anyways, Japan's in great danger over infected Digimons causing havoc in Tokyo. Joe: I have exams. This was so funny for some reason (T_T) like the guy just flat out declined on the phone to save the world. Anyways, this isn't a drag by the way. I get where he's coming from and I can see where the writers are heading with this narrative. I like it honestly. I like how they're giving them conflicts related to their crests like Joe avoiding responsibility or Mimi's sincerity turning into egocentricity. The resolutions to it, however, are kinda disappointing. I'm especially iffy about Joe's situation. He's got a lot of things weighing him down but the rest of the world won't stop just for him and like Taichi said, it's not like he doesn't want to, it's just that he's unable to. What I didn't like was that it basically solved nothing. All it did was just brush off his worries so he can become a Digidestined again. Mimi's resolution also doesn't seem to solve anything at all. It's true that she can be egocentric and she knows that. I expected something like an apology or whatever to the committee for her inconsiderateness of others and that maybe she can find a middle ground to her honesty but all they did was basically just make Mimi not give a fuck at all. I expected a conversation between her and Koushiro too. It feels like they were setting their earlier argument up for that but there was nothing. Hopefully, the third movie gives something like that. Okay what's Ken's problem this time. And at least the mega and ultimate evolutions aren't CGI. Also that Rosemon jiggle physics (ToT) RIP Leomon. It seems like it's just your fate to die in this franchise. Anyways, this was alright I guess. They had some great ideas tbh but the execution just left nothing to be desired. |
 |
| Is it just me or is the whole movie excluding the action scenes is filled with not-that-great stills when animation is sorely needed (ie: Mimi's dance for her class cafe) It's an alright movie that focuses more on the group's relationships including Meiko and Meicoomon. Ken and Maki should have a good reason why they're going with their plan to level up the Digimons since if Ken just becomes evil for "experiments" again is just stupid. |
| When did Ichijouji become the Digimon Kaiser again? Am I missing something? |
 |
| Gomamon cooking for Joe was the cutest thing ever. I'm glad I can binge these movies. |
 |
| Despite I enjoy a lot of the time the guys are doing nothing related with the digital world, sometimes it feels like a slice of life, I guess the main plot is about a conflict with digimons, so I’m not sure where this will end. Izzy’s discussion with Mimi was pointless, I kind of understand more Joe’s point, but it seems like he ended up understanding his role. The mega evolutions were kinda anticlimactic, but they’re cool. Meicoomon acting very strange, so much to discover. Ken appearing, his use of imperialdramon, he is our Ken from gen 2? |
 |
| loved seeing my guy Zudomon again, my boy from way back, was actually my username on the digimon forum I used to use lol |
| I have a third testicle that gives me psychic powers |
| This one was even better than the first, as it had more action and a little more plot development. Finally, the other Digimon, apart from Taichi and Yamato, had their mega evolutions. Vikimon and Rosemon are fantastic. Speaking of which, Mimi has become an excellent character, I thought she was boring before, but now she transmits a good aura, her seyuu was excited about the role. It helps that she is now visually prettier and has ditched that damn hat. |
