27-3 - Digimon: The Movie


Listen Later

After doing Yu-Gi-Oh! And Pokémon, it only felt fitting to do the other main collectible anime craze of the 2000s: Digimon.


Digimon: The Movie is a fascinating film, as its actually three Japanese films (Digimon Adventure, Digimon Adventure: Our War Game!, and Digimon Adventure 02: Hurricane Touchdown!!) squished into one film.


Join as us we watch and react to this anime classic and dig into its weird production history, discussing exactly why Fox and Saban opted to Frankenstein three Digimon films together and talking about the weirdest bits of the film (including the infamous Angela Anaconda short that was glued to it)

Toonami Absolution is a weekly podcast where Alyx, Jon, and Sam revisit the Toonami and Adult Swim shows that made them, and you, you.


From the block's early days with shows like Space Ghost: Coast to Coast and Transformers: Beast Wars to the imported anime that made Toonami and Adult Swim appointment television for a generation of kids, such as Cowboy Bebop, Sailor Moon, and Dragon Ball.
