Spoilers for all Digimon Adventure entries preceding this one, particularly Digimon Adventure tri., will be left unmarked. You Have Been Warned.Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna is an anime film taking place in the Digimon Adventure continuity, specifically set five years after the events of Digimon Adventure tri. It was released in Japan on February 21, 2020, and released in America on September 29, 2020 digitally and on DVD October 6, 2020.The original DigiDestined are quickly approaching adulthood, having already started to take strides in what they want to do in life. All seems well, until the revelation that ends up shocking them to their core is revealed: the reason why children are always chosen to be DigiDestined. Specifically, the endless choices spread across the future for them is what ultimately powers their Digivice... and once that ends, so does the partnership with their Digimon.Rapidly approaching that point, the group struggles to come to terms at the thought of losing their partners who have helped them throughout their childhood. Further complicating matters is a new threat; a Digimon attacking other DigiDestined and rendering them unconscious with what seems to be no cure. The group is now faced with a rather big dilemma, as every Digivolution their partner Digimon undergoes only lessens what time they have left with their partners.Confronted with all this, the group must face one last adventure.Prior to the film's release (November 19, 2019 specifically), a short titled "To Sora" was released as a part of the "Digimon Adventure 20th Memorial Story" series, set as a prequel about Sora and Biyomon a day prior to the film's events. On January 31, 2020, an English-subbed version was released on Toei Animation's Japanese Youtube channel.A sequel film focusing on the Digimon Adventure 02 cast, Digimon Adventure 02: The Beginning, released in 2023.View the Japanese trailer here, and the English trailer here. | |

Retired Badass: Sora is the first of the kids to drop out before the movie even starts, wanting to focus on following her mother's footsteps as a flower arranger. A fast enough pause in the movie's intro also reveals that the timer on her Digivice is already at the final bar. By the time of the third act, Biyomon has already disappeared, explaining why she was absent from the final battle. | |

Bloodless Carnage | |
Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna / int_135b9977 | comment |
Bloodless Carnage: Zigzagged in the final battle, likely due to different biologies. When both Tai and Matt are attacked directly by Eosmon, the two are left bleeding badly from the attack. However later on, when Omnimon is sliced to pieces by Eosmon, his insides seem to be a digital, pixel-y purple. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Being a movie set up for the audience that grew up with the series (Who are likely adults as well with the cast), it has a VASTLY different tone shift from the original series, being more in line with the tone from Digimon Adventure tri.. Including bloody injuries, very few moments of humor, and a more darker, realistic, and somber tone throughout set from the impending separation of the DigiDestined and their partners. As far as villains go, the Big Bad is also easily one of the most dangerous human villains in the series who essentially attempts mass abduction on a scale that would put Oikawa from 02, an already frightening villain with a similar modus operandi, to shame. | |

Unreliable Narrator | |
Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna / int_1869b4b1 | comment |
Menoa's explanation on how she created Eosmon implies that there was more to the story than she was letting on. She claims that that the day the aurora appeared, Morphomon's lifeless data suddenly changed into Eosmon, while a voice she believed to Morphomon told her to save the other DigiDestined. Given her mental instability and tendency to be an Unreliable Narrator, it's unclear whether Eosmon's birth was truly a coincidence and "Morphomon's" voice was merely one of her delusions or if she was being manipulated by an unseen third party and she was simply to blinded by grief and eager to "save" her fellow DigiDestined to realize that something was very off about the whole situation. | |

The Cameo | |
Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna / int_1b65dfad | comment |
The Cameo: The international DigiDestined introduced in Adventure 02, as well as Willis from Digimon: The Movie/Hurricane Touchdown, have a few small appearances either fighting Eosmon or being held captive by it. In a Freeze-Frame Bonus during the opening we see that Izzy has all of them in his email contacts. This was the reason why Menoa went through the trouble of having Eosmon be targeted despite essentially revealing it to the DigiDestined. By earning the DigiDestined's trust, she would eventually gain access to his contact list and allow her to send Eosmons to everyone in it. While Izzy catches on, it wasn't enough to save him from an Eosmon jumping from his computer and simply taking it along with his memories by force. Meiko from tri. is also one of the captured DigiDestined. | |

Poor Communication Kills | |
Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna / int_1c445e86 | comment |
Poor Communication Kills: The only reason people like Menoa came up with their Growing Up Sucks ideology is that the rule that their partner disappears should they mature isn't even told to them. The reasoning for that as given by Gennai is that it is the same reason why no one ever asks how long they live. Not surprisingly, due to how abrupt the separation is as a result and having no time to come to terms with it beforehand, it is any wonder they become unhinged and waste their adult lives forming all forms of crazy plans? | |

A Boy and His X | |
Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna / int_1d435a4d | comment |
A Boy and His X: Deconstructed. Digimon befriend their Chosen Children and accompany them to adulthood, at which point the Digimon's static personality starts to clash with the person's developing maturity, causing the former to disappear. It's heavily implied that Tai and Matt are among the first people to lose their partners because their bonds had grown severely weaker throughout the years, as shown when they leave Agumon and Gabumon behind following the battle against Parrotmon, and when Agumon mentions he had never been to Tai's apartment before the events of this film. | |

Ambiguous Situation | |
Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna / int_1f6983f7 | comment |
Ambiguous Situation: In the climax of the film when Tai and Matt see everyone that Menoa and Eosmon have captured, Meiko is amongst the captured DigiDestined... along with Meicoomon, who was last seen being killed off by Omnimon: Merciful Mode. Whether she somehow came back or was merely a memory copy made for the captured Meiko is never explained properly. No one even expresses any surprise at this. Menoa's explanation on how she created Eosmon implies that there was more to the story than she was letting on. She claims that that the day the aurora appeared, Morphomon's lifeless data suddenly changed into Eosmon, while a voice she believed to Morphomon told her to save the other DigiDestined. Given her mental instability and tendency to be an Unreliable Narrator, it's unclear whether Eosmon's birth was truly a coincidence and "Morphomon's" voice was merely one of her delusions or if she was being manipulated by an unseen third party and she was simply to blinded by grief and eager to "save" her fellow DigiDestined to realize that something was very off about the whole situation. In the credits, Davis, Ken, Yolei, Cody, Kari, and T.K. are all pictured with their partners. The other original Digidestined appear, but their partners don't. Joe, Mimi, and Izzy are all hard at work, so it makes sense that their partners wouldn't be there, but the film has already established that their partners come to work with them. It's possible, but not confirmed, that by the time of the credits, their partners have faded, too. | |

Aborted Arc | |
Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna / int_23698fa8 | comment |
Aborted Arc: The movie runs on a completely different plotline than the one from Tri. Therefore, enigmas such as Maki Himekawa and the Mysterious Man never make an appearance despite the Sequel Hook leaving the potential for them to return in this movie, and the dangling plot threads there like the entire goal behind the Mysterious Man's actions, whether or not Nishijima and Himekawa are truly dead, and what became of Alphamon are left unresolved. | |

Tai is taking political classes in university, Joe is in medical school, T.K. is writing a novel, Davis says he wants to open a ramen restaurant, and the end credits show Matt next to a rocket display. All of these are allusions to the careers they wind up in, as seen in the Distant Finale of Adventure 02. | |

Just Eat Gilligan: Menoa would have an easier time carrying out her plan if she just took the DigiDestined's memories from the start with the exception of Izzy until she obtains his contact list instead of recklessly exposing Eosmon's existence to them. It is painfully clear that Plot Armor was the only reason Menoa didn't do so from the get-go while resorting to a convoluted scheme to obtain Izzy's contact list. If she had done this from the start, the movie would only be five minutes long. | |

Bittersweet Ending: Tai and Matt, with their Digimon, manage to stop Eosmon and save the DigiDestined. Menoa is arrested, and the characters move onto with their lives and their professions. However, there is still no solution behind partner separations, and, like Biyomon, Agumon and Gabumon also vanish. Still, both Tai and Matt believe that they will someday see their partners again, with the Distant Finale of 02 proving them right. | |

Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna / int_4b0ef86e | comment |
Advertised Extra: Sora's screentime in the film basically amounts to less than 30 seconds total due to her retiring before the film's events even start. Her backstory is explained in "To Sora" but removing her from the story wouldn't affect the plot. The other DigiDestined who aren't Tai, Matt and Izzy don't fare much better as they are removed in short order over the first and second acts without any significant contribution to the plot. Even Kari's whistle blowing which broke them free and let them participate in the Final Battle was ultimately window dressing in the grand scheme of things as only Agumon -Bond of Courage- and Gabumon -Bond of Friendship- can hurt and defeat Eosmon's Mega form. The 02 DigiDestined. Despite the first trailer focusing on them, they don't contribute much to the plot outside of uncovering a lead for Tai and Matt and defending other tamers from a massive Eosmon assault. Their partners don't even get to go beyond Champion level. | |

Broad Strokes: It's left ambiguous if the events of this movie directly continued off from tri. or was its own separate thing, as there is evidence for both. On one hand, Meiko and Meicoomon was shown to be one of Menoa's victims, but on the other hand, not only people have no issues with Digimon causing collateral damage on the streets or Digimon existing in the real world (something that is definitely not the case with tri.), the DigiDestined's characterization are also more in line with the source material than they do with their sporadically different characterization in tri.. | |

Lotus-Eater Machine: The Big Bad's goal is to transport every Chosen Child to Neverland, an artificial world that traps whoever enters it into a personal island where they relive their fondest memories. It also brainwashes the victims into believing that spending the rest of their lives as a child and in the company of their Digimon is what they truly desire, causing them to viciously attack anyone who tries to snap them back to reality. | |

Growing Up Sucks | |
Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna / int_57efd4c4 | comment |
Growing Up Sucks: The revelation that growing up causes whatever powers their Digivices to eventually lose their power and in turn ends the partnership with their Digimon ends up hitting the group hard. | |

Central Theme | |
Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna / int_5ce7dbb9 | comment |
Central Theme: Growing up. Specifically how everyone has a different way of going about it, and that it's important one does so in a healthy way. While some may want to move onto other things, such as how Sora seeked to move on from being a DigiDestined, others may want to build upon what was a part of their childhood, such as how Tai wanted to help relations between humans and Digimon. And while it may be hard to let go of part of one's childhood, it's not always gone forever, as seen in 02's epilogue, though it is important that one doesn't hold onto it so much that it comes at the expense of their future as seen with Menoa. | |

Breaking the Fellowship: Downplayed. Though the original Chosen Children are still friends, they are no longer committed as a team, and have drifted apart as they grew up and pursued different careers. Lampshaded by Tai near the beginning of the film, when he laments that only four of them showed up to stop Parrotmon's rampage. | |

Meaningful Name | |
Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: Digimon Adventure's main Japanese theme, Butter-fly, which has stayed with it throughout its lifetime, is made deliberately more meaningful, with this film making liberal use of butterfly symbolism for the Digidestined moving onto the next chapter of their lives (or their struggle to do so). It also arguably, retroactively, makes the song be from the digimon's point of view as Agumon and Gabumon are implied to become butterflies upon the timer running out, but Tai and Matt end the film convinced they will see their partners again. The lyrics of Butter-fly start with 'I'll become a butterfly... to fly my way to you'. Plus the emphasis of 'flying on wings made of love' in the chorus - the strength the digimon and their partners share has always come from a pure expression of love. | |

Saved by Canon: Despite the tragic implications of the film's Bittersweet Ending, the saving grace for the viewers is knowing that no matter what happens, things will be ok. Even if it comes to pass that they lose their Digimon, Adventure 02's Distant Finale shows that somehow, someday, all of the DigiDestined will be by their partner digimon's side again after they've grown up. It helps that the film shows some of the kids already aiming towards career paths that match up with said finale, further assuring that finale is in the cards. | |

Present-Day Past: Modern smartphones are everywhere in the movie, and the kids even all now have smartphone Digivices. This wouldn't look odd to an audience in 2020, but the film actually takes place in 2010, which is when the iPhone-type smartphones only just began really taking off, and certainly had not yet taken hold in Japan. Japanese flipphones - which already had plenty of smartphone functions and thus slowed the rate at which iPhones and lookalikes were adopted - reigned supreme for several years longer. | |

Final Battle | |
Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna / int_830b0ac9 | comment |
Sora's screentime in the film basically amounts to less than 30 seconds total due to her retiring before the film's events even start. Her backstory is explained in "To Sora" but removing her from the story wouldn't affect the plot. The other DigiDestined who aren't Tai, Matt and Izzy don't fare much better as they are removed in short order over the first and second acts without any significant contribution to the plot. Even Kari's whistle blowing which broke them free and let them participate in the Final Battle was ultimately window dressing in the grand scheme of things as only Agumon -Bond of Courage- and Gabumon -Bond of Friendship- can hurt and defeat Eosmon's Mega form. | |

Lampshaded by Agumon when the heroes go through Menoa's memories, as he states that "she's been crying on the inside" all this time. | |

Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna / int_867c3744 | comment |
New Rules as the Plot Demands: The premise of the film is when a DigiDestined becomes mature, their Digimon partner has to leave them. It is even implied that they don't even return to the Digital World, but straight up cease to exist instead. This seems to contradict events from Digimon Adventure 02, which showed the children alongside their Digimon in the Distant Finale, but Word of God says the epilogue is still canon. | |

Rule of Symbolism: Interestingly both cases involve rain on a window. While Tai is talking to Menoa at the pool about a potential way to stop the timer, the shadows of raindrops on the window could be seen on the latter's face, resembling teardrops, and a hint to just how much she's been crying on the inside over the loss of Morphomon. When Matt reminds Tai that Digivolving will accelerate their timers, there's a quick shot of a raindrop splitting into two on a window. | |

Traumatized by her best friend's disappearance, she hopelessly attempts to reprogram it, only to end up creating Eosmon, an entity that can convert people's consciousnesses into digital data. Under the delusion that her invention is meant to save other Chosen Children from the same fate that befell her, Menoa starts trapping the kids into their personal dream worlds, setting in motion the film's main plot. | |

Continuity Nod | |
Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna / int_9dab0a6e | comment |
Continuity Nod: The first scene has some of the kids fend off a giant Parrotmon, including Greymon, bringing to mind the fight between a Parrotmon and Greymon that caused the kids to become Digidestined in the first place, 15 years prior. Agumon's Digivolutions to Greymon and MetalGreymon are faithfully recreated from the main series in new animations, with the latter's sequence being animated in 2D this time. Several design elements that originated in Our War Game reappear in this film, such as the way the inside dimension of the internet is portrayed, as well as the development process of a digiegg as displayed on a computer. The framing of Omnimon going in for a finishing blow on an enemy is also replicated. However, he doesn't make the hit this time. Additionally, the ones who entered the internet to face Eosmon the first time around are the exact same ones from the second movie, namely Agumon, Gabumon, Patamon and Tentomon but this time they are joined by Tai, Matt, T.K. and Izzy. Also, something prevented them from obtaining victory. The thousands of emails caused WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon to slow down followed by Tai "crashing" WarGreymon, causing him to freeze in place and MetalGarurumon alone was not enough to take on Diablomon whereas Omegamon was interrupted by glitching out which allowed their respective antagonists to escape. Adding to that, having a lot of Eosmon copies appeared is similar to Diablomon having many copies of himself. Similar to how WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon could not handle the onslaught of Diablomon's attacks, although Omegamon could take on the Ultimate/Perfect forms of Eosmon's, he could not handle Eosmon's Mega/Ultimate form. Plus, due to miracles, Omegamon was formed and the Courage and Friendship forms of Agumon and Gabumon made their first debuts in movies respectively. The main cast being de-aged was previously done in Hurricane Touchdown, and recreates shots from signature character moments in Adventure. The cast being turned against the remainder of the group brings to mind the Dark Spored kids in Adventure 02. Tai rescues everyone by grabbing Kari's whistle and blowing loudly into it, just like how he woke Greymon. Mimi waking up is much like her postcard message to Tai from Hawaii. | |

Canon Discontinuity: Technically it's not, but the movie certainly acts like it in regards to Tri. Except for the brief cameo by Mei and Meicoomon, the movie makes no references to the events of Tri at all, and seems to position itself as a direct sequel to 02 that fans can watch and understand without needing to see Tri at all. Even noticeable in the animation, which is much closer to the style of the TV shows compared to Tri, and the evolution sequences, which are updated versions of the same evolution scenes from the show. In contrast, Tri gave everyone brand new evolution sequences. | |

Informed Flaw: Tai and Matt are losing their DigiDestined status due to their growing up causing them to lose the multiple possibilities for the future that powers such. But that's somewhat odd considering that one of the subplots is that they're both still Desperately Looking for a Purpose in Life during the film's events, meanwhile there are DigiDestined who already have jobs, or are on career paths with an established trajectory (such as Izzy being the CEO of a company that communicates with and makes new gadgets for the global DigiDestined, or Joe being in medical school to become a doctor, etc.) but aren't yet affected. Even if one argues that there might be a hard limit regarding age, that still doesn't really make sense since Joe is the oldest of the kids. The only main character affected quicker than Tai and Matt is Sora. | |

Demoted to Extra: The members of the original DigiDestined that aren't Tai, Matt, Izzy or T.K. suffer from this and even T.K. has comparatively less to do out of the four. Kari, Mimi and Joe get their memories stolen in short order throughout the first and second acts without any significant contribution, with T.K. quickly following suit. Most egregiously Sora and Biyomon have less than a minute of screen time and don't even join the final battle, since the latter has already ceased to exist by then, though they do have a whole short dedicated to their side of the story set prior to the movie. | |

Later on, after merging with Menoa and Digivolving to a Mega form, Eosmon VICIOUSLY returns the favor, cutting off Omnimon's Supreme Cannon before taking off both his left arm and one of his legs, followed by slicing off his right Transcendent Sword arm to end the fight. | |

Taken for Granite: The fate of a Digivice that has its timer run out, as seen with what happened to Sora's after Biyomon left, and eventually Tai and Matt's Digivices after Agumon and Gabumon leave. | |

Teen Genius: Menoa was famous for being a teen genius, and Matt even finds a news article stating that she was 9 years old when she found the world's largest prime number and was 14 years old when she was accepted into a university. | |

Barrier Warrior | |
Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna / int_d8b146b0 | comment |
Barrier Warrior: Eosmon proves to be very adept in summoning barriers, as in their Mega form, they're capable of effortlessly blocking Omnimon's attacks without a scratch, and even slicing him to pieces when they decide to end the fight. | |

A God Am I | |
Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna / int_dc1761bd | comment |
A God Am I: Menoa's delusions of godhood become apparent when she decides to name her new Digimon after Eos, the Greek Titan who personifies dawn. By the time Tai and Matt reach Neverland, her mental state has deteriorated to the point she proclaims herself to be the goddess of that dimension. | |

Wintry Auroral Sky: The film takes place shortly after an aurora borealis, which the heroes believe has caused an interference in the Digital World. Parrotmon's rampage is attributed to it, as well as Eosmon's egg coming into existence. | |

Call-Forward | |
Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna / int_e3c36782 | comment |
Call-Forward: Tai is taking political classes in university, Joe is in medical school, T.K. is writing a novel, Davis says he wants to open a ramen restaurant, and the end credits show Matt next to a rocket display. All of these are allusions to the careers they wind up in, as seen in the Distant Finale of Adventure 02. The final shot of the credits is Tai's thesis, where he's written about the coexistence of humans and Digimon and says he wants to make suggestions for the future. Like his aforementioned political classes, this leads to him becoming the United Nations' diplomat for the Digital World in 02's epilogue. At the end of the movie, Tai and Matt declare they will see Agumon and Gabumon again someday. Anyone who has watched the 02 epilogue knows this to be true. | |

Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna / int_f3626b09 | comment |
In the climax of the film when Tai and Matt see everyone that Menoa and Eosmon have captured, Meiko is amongst the captured DigiDestined... along with Meicoomon, who was last seen being killed off by Omnimon: Merciful Mode. Whether she somehow came back or was merely a memory copy made for the captured Meiko is never explained properly. No one even expresses any surprise at this. | |

Series Fauxnale: While the film is set up like one big Grand Finale for the Digimon Adventure continuity, wrapping up some story ends to show the DigiDestined on their way towards their future, it's mostly just a finale for the original cast of Adventure, with the upcoming film Digimon Adventure 02: The Beginning set to focus on the cast of Adventure 02 two years after the events of this film. | |

Gadgeteer Genius: Computer wiz Izzy has become this, or his company has anyway. He has created smartphones for everyone that can also function as their Digivices, and in the opening battle of the movie, he's having Tai test out a prototype for VR goggles intended for battle assistance. | |

Well-Intentioned Extremist: Menoa is not an evil character at all, and she does mean well for the DigiDestined to avoid going through the pain of losing their partners that she experienced herself. Maybe the best method is not to steal hundreds of people's memories along with their Digimon partners. | |
