So I hope the audience will see their interactions with us and their cute movements," said Hashimoto. Mr. Matsumoto added, "Digimon are supposed to grow and develop. As the title of the movie says, "Super Evolution Stage," the scenes where they evolve are very powerful, so I would like you to see that. I also hope to express the bond between the eight Digimon and their partner Digimon, and how they are connected by their souls.

During the interview, Hashimoto-san described the Digimon as "lovable like a pet," to which Tagomi-san, who plays Mimi, replied, "They are not pets!　You are a partner! She was his partner! Such a small exchange made the audience feel as if Mimi was actually there and talking to them.
