Synopsis
Kari has just surrendered to Myotismon. Wizardmon tells the others they have to return Kari's tag and crest to defeat Myotismon. Myotismon tricks Gatomon into revealing that Kari is the eighth child. Myotismon is about to destroy them when the kids and Digimon arrive. Despite the Digimon fully digivolving, they still lack the power to defeat Myotismon. Myotismon unleashes a deathblow to Kari and Gatomon, but Wizardmon jumps in front and dies from the blast. Tai gets the Digivice back to Kari, which helps Gatomon Digivolve to Angewomon. All the Digimon divert their power to Angewomon, who strikes down Myotismon with her celestial arrow. It seems that Myotismon is defeated, but the kids find it strange that the fog has still not cleared.

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.
