Comment from Maayu Matsuoka (original text)

I have loved "Digimon" since I was a child, so I was so happy when I heard that I was going to be a part of it. I fell in love with Yamato-kun and longed to be a girl like Sora-chan. I watched it over and over again until I wore out the videotape. It is the work that "made me who I am" and taught me "kindness," "strength," and "pain. It is "the work that made me who I am.

Menoa, the character I played, is a vivacious and pleasant woman who can work quickly and efficiently, but she is also a woman with many thoughts and feelings, such as the struggle of becoming an adult from a child. I was grateful to be cast in the film and had discussions with Director Taguchi, and we worked on the play until we were satisfied with our performance.

Many people from the "Digimon Adventure" generation were involved in the production of this film, including the director. So people like me, who used to enjoy watching the TV series every week when I was a child, will be able to say, "This is the kind of Digimon I wanted to see! I hope many people will watch this movie and miss it. I hope that many people will watch this movie and shed tears of nostalgia, happiness, sadness, and emotion. I hope that many people will watch this movie and shed tears of nostalgia, happiness, sadness, and emotion, and that they will feel the "bond" between you and Digimon.

Daisuke Ono's comment

Congratulations on the 20th anniversary. I am thrilled to be a part of such a long-loved and historic series. The main characters of Digimon are children. The bond between the children and the Digimon is dependable, and as an adult watching over them, I was dazzled by their brilliance.
