Digimon Adventure Turns 15! Memorial Event to be Held in Odaiba

The TV anime Digimon Adventure created by Toei Animation (Headquarters: Nerima, Tokyo; CEO: Katsuhiro Takagi) and broadcast from 1999 is turning 15 this year. Because this is an anniversary year, various plans are being developed under the 15th Anniversary Project.

The first part of the project will be a special commemorative event for fans held on Aug. 1 in Odaiba, the setting of the show. The title of the event is “15th Anniversary Event 0801 in Odaiba - Today, the Adventure Evolves.”

On the day of the event, there will be a screening of the movie Digimon Adventure: Our War Game! and a special concert by Kōji Wada, singer of the popular theme song “Butter-Fly.” In addition to the not-to-be-missed stage shows, another highlight will be memorial news announced one after the next regarding what is to come for the 15th Anniversary Project. Tickets will go on sale Tuesday, July 1.

More information regarding tickets and detailed information on the event will be announced soon on an event site for the 15th Anniversary Project.
