What's the difference between Digimon Adventure 1999 and Digimon Adventure 2020?


Aside from the New Songs in Digimon Adventure [2020] (or also called "
**REBOOT** " ) there are some changes made in the anime.

One Notable Factor was that: The _**first three episodes**_ of 2020 was
basically a _**movie**_ they're basically one long prologue to the new series.
The end of episode 3 essentially feels like the true beginning to Adventure
2020.

another one is that _**introduction**_

> As much as I love 99, I think we can all agree 2020 has it beat, at least in
> its introduction. 99 throws you into all the characters with no time to
> breathe, and then becomes and episodic show as it develops its world and
> characters. An approach that worked, but so far 2020 feels so much more like
> a properly paced series that will slowly add to the cast, which I think will
> pay off in dividends.

**CHANGES TO THE VILLIANS** [![enter image description

> Digimon Adventure 2020 series: Has Anything Changed From Past To Present -
> The Illuminerdi The foes in the series have had some changes as well with
> new Digimon entering the series as the obvious foe but still, there are wild
> Digimon that the kids must face that may be evil or just hungry and
> animalistic in nature. Whether will see some of the big villains of the
> original series is yet to be clear but it will definitely be completely
> different from the original series.
>
> The original series also had Black gears that made good Digimon evil but so
> far they have yet to make an appearance so whether this will be part of the
> show later or the new Digimon has replaced them, has yet to be confirmed.

Another Notable feature about Reboot(2020) is that it had better
_**animation**_. We know the fact that it is new hence better animation. (or
should I say CGI)

**10\. Changed: The Date Of Events** [![enter image description

In the original Digimon Adventure, the date was an important detail to the
plot. The kids get transported into the Digital World on August 1st, 1999.
When the kids return to their world they think they've been gone for months,
only to realize it has just been a few minutes.

In the reboot, the year is 2020 and the world has been updated. Everyone has a
cellphone, laptops, and the Japanese landscape that is shown is one that
matches real life. The date is not mentioned at all. All we know is that
Taichi and Koushiro are getting ready for summer camp.

**9.Stayed The Same: The Effects Of The Digital World** [![enter image
description
here](https://i.stack.imgur.com/ttLX5.jpg)](https://i.stack.imgur.com/ttLX5.jpg)

In both the original Digimon Adventure and the reboot, the first episodes show
how closely the Digital World and the real world are linked. In the 1999
series, it starts snowing while the kids are at camp, even though it's summer.
The entire real world is experiencing weather phenomenons due to the issues in
the Digital World.

**8\. Changed: The Order Of Events**

The 1999 Digimon Adventure picks up the story with the DigiDestined at camp
before being transported into the Digital World. In the American version,
there isn't much information revealed initially as to why these kids are
chosen. However, fans of the series now know that the events that took place
in the first Digimon movie are canon, explaining why.

In the reboot, the timeline is given a fix. They combine the first movie, The
Digimon Movie, and the second, Our War Game. We see glimpses of the other kids
but they are not initially involved. We also get the Omegamon evolution, which
occurred in Our War Game. At the end of the third episode, it appears the kids
have finally arrived in the Digital World as we know it.

**7\. Stayed The Same: The Roles Of Takeru And Hikari**

Yamato's younger brother, Takeru, was initially shown as the runt of the
DigiDestined. Alongside Patamon, he was very naive and was often trying to
prove his independence. Patamon was the last Digimon to Digivolve to his
Champion form, Angemon. Hikari, who doesn't join the group until later, gained
Gatomon as a partner who's Ultimate form, Angewomon, is the counterpart of
Angemon. Together they play a pivotal role in defeating the Dark Masters.

**6 Changed: Introduction Of The Digimon**

One of the interesting things about the original Digimon Adventure was that we
met all the Digimon companions in their baby forms until they Digivolved into
their rookie forms, in which they stay most of the time. This provides a good
insight for the DigiDestined and the viewers since any time the Digimon are
too exhausted, they can regress to their baby forms.

When Taichi is transported into the Digital World in the reboot, he sees
Agumon's baby form, Koromon, as they are falling. By the time they land
Koromon has Digivolved into Agumon. Later on, when Taichi has been transported
back into the Digital World, Taichi sees Agumon, not Koromon.

**5 Stayed The Same: The Personalities Of The DigiDestined**

Although not all of the main characters have been introduced yet, it's clear
that the characters haven't been given a makeover as far as their
personalities are concerned. So far, in Digimon Adventure 2020, we have seen
Taichi, Yamato, and Koushiro in action.

**4 Changed: Summer Camp**

The fateful trip to summer camp changed everything for the kids in the
original anime. The kids were at camp together, and right before a big wave
hit to drag them to the Digital World, they all received their DigiVices. The
camp was also important because it united Yamato and Takeru who did not live
together due to their divorced parents. Hikari was also supposed to attend the
camp but did not because she got sick, leading to her being sought out later
on as the 8th DigiDestined.

In the reboot, fans were thrown through a loop when the kids arrived at summer
camp, and... then they left promptly after. This may have been a small way for
the show to tribute the original but it also explains that the reboot is
taking a different approach.

**3 Stayed The Same: The Focus On Taichi And Yamato**

It goes without saying that all eight of the DigiDestined played an important
role in the original Digimon Adventure. It is clear though that Taichi and
Yamato have always had more of a spotlight, especially in regards to their
relationship with each other. Early on in the original, Taichi and Yamato were
often butting heads as they were both trying to be leaders.

**2 Changed: The Abilities Of The DigiVices**

One of the coolest parts of being a DigiDestined is owning a DigiVice. The
DigiVice is the connector between the kids and their Digimon. The original
DigiVice would light up when a Digimon was about to Digivolve, it had a small
on-screen map, and most importantly, it played a huge role in stopping the
world from being destroyed.

In the reboot, the DigiVice appears to have undergone a complete hardware
makeover. The DigiVice now seems to light up dramatically, display the crests
in full color, pull up maps, and even allow for holographic communication.

**1 Stayed The Same: The Emphasis On Teamwork**

Digimon Adventure may have its stand out characters as mentioned earlier, but
one of the reasons it has held its ground for the last 20 years, throughout
different adaptations, is because of its emphasis on teamwork. No one
character or one Digimon could have saved the world by themselves, a point the
original Digimon Adventure made sure to drive home time and time again.

In the new series, the saving of Tokyo could not have been possible without
the combined efforts of Taichi, Yamato, and Koushiro as well as their Digimon
partners. While it may seem like a small detail, the main story has always
been about friendship and working together to overcome obstacles.
