Digimon Adventure: 2020 anime will receive an English Dub!

Yesterday, it has been confirmed that one of the recent anime of the Digimon franchise, Digimon Adventure: - and yes, the colon is part of the name, though it's easier to just refer to it as Digimon Adventure 2020 - will be receiving an English dub, though when it will be released is unknown.

For those who don't know, Digimon Adventure 2020 serves as a reboot of the classic 1999 Digimon Adventure show. Set in more modern times, the series sees Tai, and his friends - Matt, Sora, Mimi, Izzy, and Joe - getting transported to the Digital World, where they meet Agumon and his friends - Gabumon, Biyomon, Palmon, Tentomon, and Gomamon. Together, they must work together to stop the evil Digimon, who's relentless attacks on the Digital World are causing disastrous effects in the Real World.

When it comes to the voices, it's been confirmed that all of the characters will be receiving new voice actors. However, only Tai's and Agumon's new voices have been revealed. Tai Kamiya will be voiced by Zeno Robinson, who notable works include voicing Hawks from My Hero Academia, as well as Genya from Demon Slayer. Agumon will be voiced by Ben Diskin, who previously voiced Shoutmon from Digimon Fusion. Both voice actors appeared in a video message to the fans, with Robinson commenting that he had grown up with the original show and was honored to be voicing the series' main character.

Following this news, some fans wonder if the current Digimon anime, Digimon Ghost Game, will be dubbed as well, though nothing was said about it.

Are you excited to see this? Would you have preferred if some of the original voice actors returned? Let us know in the comments!
