That sure was a trailer.

I get the feeling the dialogue is supposed to refer to something that happens in tri, but I can't help but read it as "the second show was so bad it shouldn't have happened".

I would unironically support this plot.

So it being a TV show was not true, it starting in Spring was not true, they changed every human VA...

Can you handle this worse, Toei? I thought the nade-nade was bad enough, but holy poo poo this is terrible.

Beyond that, it looks really really good. That Alphamon vs Omegamon, and even moreso Greymon vs Kuwagamon looked insane. The cryptic as gently caress lines make me interested in the plot, but it being six OVAs makes me fear we'll be seeing the last by 2021. I can't say I'm hyped, how badly Toei has handled everything has killed my hopes for this series. Hopefully it will be better than I expect.

Also there's a new nade-nade, because of loving course there is one.

Yeah, changing the VAs makes sense. That trailer still saps my enthusiasm though. They are continuing to dribble out tiny little details, and we haven't learned much of anything we didn't know before.

Do we know who is directing? I'm guessing not Hosoda :(

I assume this restructuring is because they spent all their budget animating goggles.

Of course that's a joke, but I'm sort of amused at how they seemed to call out the crowd that were unhappy about the lack of goggles in the concept art. "There, you assholes happy now!?"

Literally all the voice actors were adults when they started adventure. I'm so bummed they dropped Mimi's voice actor... I thought she was a Digimon staple. She always sings the closings. :sigh:

The worst thing is that she still does. The ending is confirmed by the same trailer to be I Wish (meaning the original opening, ending and battle song are back), yet she's not voicing Mimi because...reasons?

Like the only understandable replacements are Taichi and Koushirou because women should not be voicing 17 and 16 year old men, respectively, but the rest are really weird. I guess Takeru is acceptable too because he can't keep a VA for two different things, that'd be crazy (he's had different VAs for Adventure, 02, the PSP game and now tri). Masami Kikuchi is especially weird, since he's been in every single Digimon show ever and was even Joe in Hunters' crossover (as well as Grani, giving him far more lines than the actual "main character" he voiced, Damemon)

Replacing the girls and Yamato make no sense and replacing Masami Kikuchi makes negative sense, considering the guy voiced Joe's entire family.

I’ll be appearing as Taichi Yagami in the Digimon Adventure tri. theater anime!
It’ll be screened starting from November 21, 2015! I’m happy to be here! I’m truly honored to be involved in this way in something I looked forward to watching every week when it aired in real time. I’ll be doing my best to play older Taichi, so please look forward to the screening! Right now I’m in the middle of rewatching the Blu-Ray (link to picture).

I was crying a lot during the marathon broadcast.
There were a lot of people in my generation who were particularly touched by Digimon Adventure. Of course, I was one of them! Somehow, I was given the opportunity to play Koushirou Izumi in Digimon Adventure tri! I’m nervous, but my heart is full of happiness. I’m happy to be here! I can really feel the impact of Digimon! So much celebration on Twitter(≧∇≦) Even my normally cool little brother is happy for me ☆ So we went and bought the Blu-Ray box together *\(^o^)/* I’m gonna study Koushirou~☆ If you missed the marathon broadcast, you should too! (link to picture)

Hitomi Yoshida (@hiTomi_713)

It’s finally been announced!
I will be playing Mimi Tachikawa in Digimon Adventure tri.!
Of course, I’m anxious about being handed down such an important work, but when it comes to her, the holder of the Crest of Purity, straightforwardly and wholeheartedly taking the hands of her partners and friends, I feel I really want to do this. And, personally, I can’t help looking forward to seeing the continuation of their adventure! I would be happy if everyone could enjoy and welcome it warmly. In every way, I’m happy to be here!

Junya Ikeda (@junya_ikeda2710)

I’m from the Digimon generation. Right now…from the bottom of my heart, I’m happy! It’s like a dream! I’m going to put in my all for everyone who loved Jou Kido and his partner Gomamon, for everyone’s memories, for the yearning dreams I had at that time, and the dreams of everyone who loves Digimon!

I feel like I want to fly. Look forward to more!

Junya Enoki (@enojunjunjun)

It was just announced that I will be the one to play Takeru Takaishi in the theater anime Digimon Adventure tri.! I’m so happy that I want to tell my child self that he’d be in Digimon when he becomes an adult!
The theater screening begins November 21! I’m happy to be here! I played the games a lot as a kid, too…It really is like a dream.Thank you for your messages about Digimon Adventure tri. There are a lot of people who have loved this work for a long time, so I’m feeling some pressure, but I’ll do my best to play Takeru in my own way! For some reason, my dad sent me a picture of the family cat with the email he sent me to congratulate me about getting the role in Digimon.

They're pretty cute... I guess. :colbert:

Well if it gets enough attention and loving Nickelodeon doesn't sit on their rear end about it we could get it a little quicker. Look at DBZ Battle of Gods that took over a year, and now Resurrection of F will only take a few months because how much interest was shown from BoG. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

All of the promotional stuff Toei has been releasing has English language versions, so I would be surprised if they stream them over here in some fashion.

Also the guy that leaked the plot of Ressurection F early has allegedly released the plot for the first tri movie. I'm taking it with a grain of salt but if it's true it's definitely not what I would have expected.

Well, this whole thing was a bit more worldwide-esque with the nade-nade being accessible and intended for everyone and every teaser having a subbed version minutes after release, so maybe they're going to go for a closer western release, like official CrunchyRoll subs release of the new episode/movie after its theater release ends. Or it could be longer and we get an official subbed release of each episode/movie right before the next one comes in theaters. Or Toei decided that western audiences actually don't matter and we're gonna be waiting for BD release and fansubs...

Man, I read the Junya Ikeda one in his most excited GokaiSilver voice. Somehow, that makes it really easy to believe what he wrote. That said I can't see his voice fitting Joe at all, and I still don't get why Masami Kikuchi, easily the most important VA in Digimon, is not doing his very first role but...

Also considering how everything until now was released subbed despite there being no real need to, I'm going to guess we're getting official subs out of the movies soon. And by guess I mean hope.

I have this weird idea that Toei didn't get the children VAs entirely because it'd be more expensive for some reason. It's the only explanation I can actually think of. It's better than making everyone mutes like the Digimon in Hunters, at least!

Also I wonder if you also missed that Hikari is GokaiYellow? Because we have two Gokaigers in the team, and that's such a waste, if they were going to change all the VAs they should've just got all the team in, it'd be funny. Marvelous as Taichi, Joe as Yamato (not as Joe, of course, that'd be silly), Doc as Koushirou, Ahim as Sora. Gai as Joe is an awful choice but the only character I can see him fitting is Daisuke and he might not even appear at all.

I'm glad I bought all the materials relating to the movie, because I bought a big NAS and put all my DVDs on the other month, and while Japanese copies of the trilogy are everywhere it's pretty difficult to find the US blender film with a completely random Fatboy Slim drop like god intended.

I watched the Latin American dub for the first four series and they were of extremely high quality. Straight from the original, with some of the name changes of the English version for some reason, songs were either kept as-is (battle songs, mostly) while the openings and endings were dubbed in Spanish and were awesome.

Everything I've read of the USA dub sounds terrible and that rap is horrible, but I get that people are nostalgic for it. That said, I fully hope the English dub, if any, will actually be faithful to the series. But more than that I just want subs that don't take years, and considering these will be released in cinemas I can't help but be a bit scared on that front.
