Digimon Adventure: La última evolución Kizuna

As a Digimon fan who was sorely disappointed with the Adventure Tri movie series, I was reluctant to watch Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna. ("Kizuna") However, the Kizuna trailer convinced me to watch the movie. Older Digimon fans should not miss Kizuna, for I think this movie was targeting us.

Personally, it was an overwhelming emotional roller coaster ride from start to end. At certain points of the movie, I could resonate with the feelings joy and sorrow of Taichi & Yamato, especially the parts on growing up and moving forward in life. Digimon has always featured some difficult questions that children face, while providing some moral values as guidance.

The producers of Digimon obviously learned from its mistakes in Adventure Tri. Elements which were essential to Digimon fans from the Digimon Adventure series and the first movie are abundant in Kizuna. The main plot in Kizuna is simple and despite some shortcomings, manages to keep its focus on a few crucial themes.

Having little expectations for this movie helps, as it allows us to finally have a nice closure for Digimon Adventure.

This Anime grow together with our, Being adult is not easy but It make our know the childhood moment have meaning.

Ask me how to create a good story, and I'll tell you create a Protagonist I can relate to. Ask me how to create a great one and I'll say, make sure I can relate to the Advisory too. This movie has this amazing element. Although it's not an easy task to create an Advisory people can relate too. As oppose to other "enemies" in the previous movies / TV series who were in fact bad entities, this movie does not have any "bad guy". Oh yes, there are fights. But the greatest fight is within the audience, who must fight the question is what the advisory attempt to accomplish is really bad? Had I have the option to do the same, would I act differently. (I still not sure I have the answer).

As for the rest of the movie, as oppose to Adventure Tri, I think 90% of the movie contained an interesting events, or a build up to a conflict. I enjoyed watching it, and that what I did. I didn't feel an urge of checking my phone or fast forward.

It's nice to see the heroes you grew up with straggling the same issues you straggle now, well maybe not exactly the same things... It reminds my a little bit the Pixar movie Inside Out, where they objectify the feeling and thoughts into physical beings. This movie did the same with the tools, the people and the relations that were craft for 20 years, and the result is great.

Bottom line, if you watch it, you'll enjoy it (assuming you are 15+ years old so you can relate to the characters). If you know the backstory of Season 01 you will really enjoy it. (the last episode of season 2 is also worth watching before heading to the movie, but it's not mandatory).

The only thing that bothered me however, was the post ending. The ending was fantastic, amazing a seething emotions were outburst, but then there was another scene which the only purpose (I think) was not to leave the audience with such a bidder taste. I saw a similar thing in the movie Your Name movie where there was an additional scene to give a little bit of hope to the audience. I really don't like this, I want a story to make me feel strong feelings. Even if they are not happy feelings, it's better than shutting me down.

Please don't let this last comment discourage you from watching this movie. It's really good, just stop in the ending (it's very obvious when the movie really ends).

Digimon Series have always touched hearts and gave a new understanding of life. The last evolution gives ideas of human evolution in life and future of digimons. The story could have been little more extending, felt like a short version of full movie. Nevertheless, the feel was still same. I loved the franchise always. This movie is more about the humans and the future they hold with their partners.Animation, Soundtrack, Music awesome as always.

Story line could have made use of all characters, missed there a bit compared to earlier movies.I enjoyed how it ends, sad and happy both, however, it shows the reality of life and tells us about limitless human potential

Oh man, from where to start! I am now an adult and I used to watch Digimon when I was in my early teen years. This movie is a perfectly done finale for that era, the music, the evolution sequences, the cinematography! I am very very very biased to Digimon and this movie is perfect, I cried alot around the end of the movie. If you loved the original series you will love this movie!

The only thing I would've loved to see is more of Angemon/Angewomon and their evolutions but that's okay! We can't have Angemon the hero every time :) but loved that it was the first Digimon to grace the screen in this movie.
