Synopsis

Tai and Agumon return to the DigiWorld, where they look for their friends. They find Tokomon, who tells them that the other kids split up to look for them. He and T.K. met up with a new Digimon, Demidevimon, who seemed to be a friend but caused the two to have an angry fight and go their separate ways. Tai, Agumon and Tokomon find T.K. and Demidevimon, and Tai tries to get T.K. and Tokomon to make up. Demidevimon senses he's losing his influence over T.K. and tries to get the others to eat some mushrooms of forgetfulness, but they're warned off by a mysterious female voice (Sora). Realizing that Demidevimon isn't a true friend, Tokomon digivolves to Patamon and drives him off.

Production notes

This TV series originally ran for 54 episodes.

"Digimon" refers to "digi[tal] mon[sters]."

Three 25-minute mini-features were released theatrically in 2000 as holiday specials in Japan. These were combined for release in the United States as the "Digimon Movie." The Screen Actors Guild in the U.S. launched a legal challenge to production company Saban over residual rights for the movie, arguing that voice acting was a skill that deserved better working conditions.

Afterward, a second season was named "Digimon 02" and ran for 50 20-minute episodes. Set three years later, it introduced the character Buimon.

"Digimon Tamers," a third series, started in April 2001. It was set in the "near-future" year of 200X.
