Prep your digivices, we’re set to return to the digital world once again! The animated series Digimon Adventure (better known as Digimon Digital Monsters) celebrated the 15th anniversary of the original core series that ran for 54 episodes, and recurring roles throughout the second generation. During the event, it was announced that there will be a new series set to debut in spring of 2015, that will center on the original group of lovable digidestined.
The original series is about seven kids who get transported into a world full of creatures with some becoming quick friends, with a couple major bad guys in the mix. It went on to spawn numerous installments but none quite captured the magic of the original series. (Though each following season was special in different ways, especially the second series)
A clip was released confirming the Digimon continuation that brought me back to my childhood commitment to the series, and notes that the series protagonist Tai will be the center point once again, now a 17 year old high school student.
I am absolutely pleased to here that we will get a chance to revisit the characters that started it all, and i’m personally hoping they include my all time favorites, Kari and her adorable but dangerous Gatomon! Anyone else share my sentiments?
Take a peek at the official announcement video for yourself below! Who are you most excited to see return to the Digital World?
