Technically, in that it's a fourth installment of Adventure.

But it seems Tri. is as relevant to Kizuna as 02 was to Tri. - that is, not at all.

Withthewill site is gone. I went to open the page and it directs me to "site cannot be found."

I still haven't seen the other Tri movies because I hear mixed things about them.

Digimon Adventure: Ψ debuts in Japan this April. It's a soft reboot that follows the original 8 digidestines with new digivices dealing with digimon threats that come to the real world. New trading card game to follow!

But... why?

I was all ready for Adventure to finally end. It should. We've had plenty of different seasons since then, several of which are a lot better. So... why reboot and not just do a new cast like usual? :/

I think because Toei and Bandai want to compete with Pokemon again this decade. They realized that Adventure is their most beloved and recognizable brand in Digimon, and having made so many changes over the years has only diluted the franchise instead of reinvigorating it. Treating it like a Sentai series did not work out for them at all. Tamers might have been the pinnacle of their creative abilities, but it is a reminder of how Digimon began losing its footing with pop culture. This new Adventure series even has a writer from Pokemon involved on the project.

I hope it doesn't become a Pokemon clone, and I doubt it will be, but I completely understand wanting to rebrand with familiar characters for a new audience. It will bring old fans back to the franchise and introduce a younger generation to the Adventure gang. Plus new cards and digivices. I'd love to see a dub get made this year. Maybe Bandai America will rebrand itself as a hub for Digimon toys to content with Power Rangers and Pokemon.

New Digivices you say? I need to see these.

They haven't debuted yet. They'll probably be revealed in March at AnimeJapan 2020. Hopefully we'll learn the fate of the digivolving spirits line at the same time. I love to see new digivices, cards, and Piyomon finally get a release date.

I love Digivices. I love seeing what they come up with design-wise.

Me too. They are my favorite digital accessory.
