Plot
Years after the events of Digimon Adventure[a], the Digital World is invaded by the Digimon Emperor, who is enslaving Digimon with the Dark Rings while building Control Spires that negate Digivolution.[b] To fight him, three new DigiDestined are recruited, each gaining an ancient Digimon for a partner. The three, along with T.K. and Kari, each possess a D-3,[12] a new type of Digivice that allows them to open a gate to be transported to the Digital World through any computer. They are also given D-Terminals that hold Crest-themed Digi-Eggs that allow their Digimon partners to undergo Armor Digivolution to counter the presence of Control Spires. The Digimon Emperor, revealed to be boy genius Ken Ichijoji, flees to the Digital World. Assisted by Ken's partner, Wormmon, the DigiDestined defeat Ken.
While the DigiDestined rebuild the Digital World, Davis, Yolei, and Cody unlock normal Digivolution. At the same time, they ally themselves with a reformed Ken, who joins the team to fight Arukenimon, a Digimon who revives the Control Spires as other Digimon. When the Control Spire Digimon prove to be stronger than them, the DigiDestined learn DNA Digivolution,[c] which enable two champion-level Digimon to merge into a stronger ultimate-level one. When Arukenimon creates BlackWarGreymon, he begins to destroy each Destiny Stones, hoping to fight Azulongmon, who appears when each Stone is destroyed. After BlackWarGreymon flees, Azulongmon warns the DigiDestined about an impending threat behind Arukenimon and Mummymon.
During Christmas, Control Spires appear across the human world, bringing Digimon with them. While the DigiDestined set off with Imperialdramon to destroy them with the help of the international DigiDestined, Arukenimon and Mummymon begin kidnapping several children for Yukio Oikawa, a friend of Cody's father who dreams of entering the Digital World. Once the DigiDestined return to Japan, they fight the Daemon Corps, and their leader, Daemon, while Oikawa uses the Dark Spore inside Ken to implant them into the children. After Daemon is imprisoned in the Dark Ocean, BlackWarGreymon sacrifices himself to seal the portal to the Digital World at Highton View Terrace, before Oikawa and the kids can transport there.
The DigiDestined are transported to a Dream World with Oikawa and the kids and learn he was controlled by Myotismon. Myotismon splits from Oikawa and uses the energy from the Dark Spores to be reborn as MaloMyotismon. Demonstrating his powers over his opponents worst fears by destroying Arukenimon and Mummymon, he plunged the DigiDestined into illusions, but thanks to their Digimon partners and Davis were able to break free and turned the Dream World against MaloMyotismon by having the Digimon Armor Digivolve, Digivolve, DNA Digivolve all at once, pushing him into the Digital World. The deceived and frightened kids, after being encouraged by the DigiDestineds, began to express their dreams of what they want to be when they grow up that began weakening MaloMyotismon, and with help from the DigiDestined all over the world, Imperiadramon Fighting Form defeat MaloMyotismon.
Cody tried to carry Okiawa to the Digital World, and was then met by Datirimon, his partner Digimon that had been waiting for him for a very long time. Over joyed to finally meet, Oikawa knew that from all the time he was controlled by Myotismon, his body had become too weak to carry on, and sacrifices himself to rebuild the Digital World. Twenty five years later, humans and Digimon live together.
Media
Anime
Digimon Adventure 02 aired with fifty episodes on Fuji TV between April 2, 2000, and March 25, 2001. The opening theme is "Target ~Akai Shōgeki~" (ターゲット~赤い衝撃~, Tāgetto ~Akai Shōgeki~) by Kōji Wada, which peaked at #85 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart.[14] The ending themes are performed by AiM, the first half of the show being "Ashita wa Atashi no Kaze ga Fuku" (アシタハアタシノカゼガフク)[15] and the second half being "Itsumo Itsudemo" (いつもいつでも).[16] "Ashita wa Atashi no Kaze ga Fuku" peaked at #50 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart, while "Itsumo Itsudemo" charted at #93.[15][16] Insert songs featured in the show include "Break up!" by Ayumi Miyazaki as the Armor Digivolution theme and "Beat Hit!" by Miyazaki as the DNA Digivolution theme.[17] The Japanese version was streamed with English subtitles on Crunchyroll in 2008, followed by Funimation Entertainment in April 2009.[18]
Saban Entertainment licensed the show in North America. Its English dub aired on Fox Kids in the US and YTV in Canada between August 19, 2000, and May 19, 2001 as the second season to Digimon: Digital Monsters.[3] Much like the English version of Digimon Adventure, which was dubbed as the first season of Digimon: Digital Monsters,[19] the original soundtrack of the show was replaced by music composed by Udi Harpaz[20] and Shuki Levy,[21][22] and the opening theme is "Digimon Theme" by Paul Gordon.[23] Other songs featured in the show include "Let's Kick it Up", "Change into Power", and "Hey Digimon", also by Gordon.[23] Jasan Radford also performed songs to the show, including "Run Around", "Going Digital", and "Strange."[24] The songs, including "Digimon Theme", were released on the original soundtrack of Digimon: The Movie.[23][24]
After the success of season 1 of Digimon: Digital Monsters, the producers requested the writers to add more North American jokes to the script, resulting in several revisions. Eventually, along with the result of Digimon: The Movie, this caused writers Jeff Nimoy and Bob Buchholz to leave the writing team near the end of the series' run.[25] A DVD boxset of the English dub was released in North America by New Video Group on March 26, 2013[26] and in Australia by Madman Entertainment on July 23, 2014.[27]
On July 29, 2023, Discotek Media announced that they are releasing a Blu-ray collection in English and Japanese separately.[28]
Digimon Adventure 02 was streamed by Netflix along with Digimon Adventure from August 3, 2013 to August 1, 2015 in separate English dubbed and Japanese subtitled versions.[29][30] Crunchyroll acquired streaming rights to the English dubbed versions, while Funimation acquired rights to the English subtitled versions. The English dubbed version of Adventure 02 briefly returned to Netflix while the English subtitled version was exclusive to Funimation.[citation needed]
Films
Several short films were screened in Japanese theaters during the show's run. A two-part featurette, Digimon Adventure 02: Hurricane Touchdown!! (デジモンアドベンチャー02 前編 デジモンハリケーン上陸!! / 後編 超絶進化!! 黄金のデジメンタル, Dejimon Adobenchā Zero Tsū Dejimon Harikēn Jōriku!!/Chōzetsu Shinka!! Ōgon no Digimentaru) was released on July 8, 2000 as part of Toei Animation Summer 2000 Animation Fair. The film was featured along with Ojamajo Doremi#: The Movie, which was screened in between. In the film, the older DigiDestined are abducted by Wendigomon. The younger DigiDestined investigate their disappearance along with American DigiDestined Willis and his partner, Terriermon, who share a common past with Wendigomon. The film grossed ¥120 billion. The film's ending theme song is "Stand By Me ~Hitonatsu no Bōken~" (スタンド・バイ・ミー~ひと夏の冒険~, Sutando Bai Mī ~Hitonatsu no Bōken~) by AiM.[31]
Digimon Adventure 02: Part 1: Digimon Hurricane Landing!!/Part 2: Transcendent Evolution!! The Golden Digimentals was released in North America on October 6, 2000, as the third part of Digimon: The Movie, which included Digimon Adventure (1999) and Digimon Adventure: Our War Game! (2000). The film was heavily altered, one of the cuts including the subplot where the older DigiDestined are kidnapped by Wendigomon, because Saban Entertainment lacked funding to produce a full two-hour movie. Scriptwriter Jeff Nimoy had wanted to release the movie separately as a television film, but the idea was overruled.[25] In addition to Japanese elements being removed and North American jokes added,[32] Willis' backstory was slightly rewritten to include that he had created Diaboromon in order to draw a connection to Digimon Adventure: Our War Game![25]
Digimon Adventure 02: Revenge of Diaboromon (デジモンアドベンチャー02 ディアボロモンの逆襲, Dejimon Adobenchā Zero Tsū Diaboromon no Gyakushū) was released on March 3, 2001. The story follows the DigiDestined fighting against a resurrected Diaboromon. The film was released in the United States on August 5, 2005, and was dubbed by Studiopolis and was distributed by BVS Entertainment. Discotek Media released the film on Blu-ray on December 30, 2025.[33]
Digimon Adventure 02: The Beginning (デジモンアドベンチャー02: THE BEGINNING, Dejimon Adobenchā Zero Tsū: THE BEGINNING) was announced in late 2021.[34][35][36] The film is set two years after Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna, and introduces the Digidestined to Lui Owada, a boy who falls from Tokyo Tower and who claims to be the first DigiDestined, though he does not have a Digimon with him.[37] The film premiered on October 27, 2023.[38]

Various audio dramas were released onto CD in Japan, with the cast reprising their roles from the television series.
The first drama CD, Digimon Adventure 02: Drama CD: The Unknown Armor Digivolutions (デジモンアドベンチャー02 ドラマCD 未知へのアーマー進化, Dejimon Adobenchā Zero Tsū: Dorama Shīdī: Michi e no Āmā Shinka) was released on February 7, 2001 and is centered on the DigiDestined fighting Boltmon, who captures Sora, Mimi, and Kari on Valentine's Day.[39]
