So we know that the next installment in the Digimon series will be divided into six films. I will say that this had me worried. No offense to the old movies in the franchise but each arc was extremely short for my taste. I had big concerns that whatever was going to be released this time around would be something of the same.

Fortunately, this is not the case. The film will run a total of 80 minutes. That for me is still too short but we need to take our victories where we can! That’s a solid 1:20 minute film. That is the equivalent of about FOUR episodes. So, the six films could overall equal something around 24-26 episodes which is more than fine. I would rather 24-26 really visually amazing episodes opposed to 50 alright episodes any day.

The first “chapter” of the series will be”Saikai” (Reunion) and will hit theaters (in Japan) November 21 with home release on December 18.
