Digimon Adventure Last Evolution Kizuna introduced us to Menoa Bellucci, who wanted to spend her whole life with her Digimon partner Morphomon. She rushed through school so she could spend more time with Morphomon, only to find she had given up her childhood and lost Morphomon as a result.
Meanwhile, the Digidestined discover that, as their own childhoods come to an end, so do their bonds with their Digimon. The story focusses on Tai and Matt and their relationships with Gabumon and Agumon, who ultimately undergo a special Last Evolution into Agumon - Bond of Bravery and Gabumon - Bond of Friendship in their last battle before they disappear from Matt and Tai's lives.
So apparently someone on Reddit correctly guessed what the Menoa Tree took from Eragon, and CP confirmed that they got it right but didn't say who they were or what was taken.
I’m seeing several posts about the Menoa planting the seed for another Menoa tree in Eragon, which is super fucked-up if true, and some comments in the relevant post where they discussed the confirmation that it may have been Eragon’s figurative “roots” to Alagaesia that were taken (which is also fucked but in a different way, if true).
Pest eller kolera, as we say in Swedish. Between these two I’m hoping for the roots, since roots can grow back. It’d be genuinely hideous for the Menoa to freaking stealth-inseminate Eragon just so there can be another massively assholeish tree somewhere else. Like Linnea, learn your fucking lesson already and stop cradlerobbing.
DIGIMON ADVENTURE: LAST EVOLUTION KIZUNA
NEW (SUPPORTING) CHARACTERS
Source: this tweet and this tweet + official website ( from official twitters )
NOTE: Since making this post, Kizuna has since been released!!
Various details were further clarified in the film,
so please feel free to watch it & compare my earlier analysis+Thoughts!
Names (possible): Menoa Bellucci (woman; left); Kyotaro Imura (right)
Kyotaro Imura (first name Kyotaro)
[ Bellucci surname is my assumption for now = perhaps she’s from Spain too
( since Miyako canonically now studies/visits there ?? ) [ or Italian ?? ? ]
It also seems the director of the movie feels Menoa particularly was
“ created [particularly/exactly] for this movie ”
i.e. she appears to fit right in with this movie or may have an important role
KYOTARO is also MENOA’s assistant, not the other way around (!!) (?)
They seem to want her to “move the hearts of the protagonists” (????)
( as in emotionally “move” them )
According to this tweet,
‘ Menoa and Imura reveal to Taichi the serious secrets related to Digimon...! ‘
[ Google Translate summarized ]
EDIT: HD version from the tweets as well!:
( ^ The BUTTERFLY clip in Menoa’s hair is a nice touch !! )
[ “ Butter-Fly ” is the Adventure opening song, get it !?..... ]
EDIT #2 via Toei official English twitter:
“ Talented Japanese Actress Mayu Matsuoka & Actor Daisuke Ono joins the cast of the new film Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna as new characters, Menoa Bellucci: a scientist conducting Digimon research & Kyotaro Imura: Menoa's assistant! The film opens in Japan on 2.21.20! ”
