Q: It seems the Digimon series has a new project in the works; could you share with us any plans that you have for the project, at least what you are allowed to share?



A: All 6 parts of Digimon Adventure tri. have now been screened in theaters. By screening this movie, which is primarily aimed at both male and female audiences in their 20s, on a smaller scale in about 15-20 theaters, we were able to make this project a success. The new project will, in addition to this core audience, also be aimed at a slightly wider audience. Click to expand...

The drip feed continues...During a briefing last month regarding their fiscal year that ended in March 2018, Toei responded to some investor questions regarding various plans.The summary of the Q&A they gave only included 4 questions: 1 which was about Toei's initiatives regarding overseas distribution, 2 regarding upcoming plans for Dragon Ball, and 1 was about the upcoming Digimon project.So based on the answer, Toei specifically aimed tri. at people in their 20s (a sequel to Adventure, announced for it's 15 anniversary being aimed generically at people in their 20s won't really surprise anyone, but since they are discussing things with investors they are explaining things from a financial perspective to people who aren't generally going to be fans.)The new project intends to aim at the same core audience that made tri. a success for Toei, while also attempting to expand wider.With tri. being the biggest success Digimon has had in a long time, it makes logical sense that they'd want to try and primarily aim at the core group that made it successful, while also attempting to increase the size of the audience.Thanks to garururou for the info about the document and garm for the translation.
