Digimon Adventure Reboot Series Announces English Dub Release and Cast
Digimon Adventure's reboot anime series is finally getting an English dub! The makers confirmed the news at Sunday's Digimon Con live stream event. In 2020, the Digimon franchise released their eighth anime series, Digimon Adventure, rebooting the original 1999 anime television series of the same name. The series was released in celebration of the franchise's 20th anniversary.
Digimon Adventure's reboot series aired 67 episodes and ended its run in September 2021, with fans still awaiting the English dub release. The Japanese voice cast from the original series reprised their roles in the reboot, with dub fans hoping for the same. However, though the DigimonCon 2022 online event confirmed that Digimon Adventure would finally be releasing an English dubbed version, they also notified fans that a new English voice cast would be joining the franchise.
