Digimon Adventure 02 is a 50-episode sequel of the 1999 anime series Digimon Adventure. It was created by Toei Animation and aired in Japan on Fuji TV between April 2, 2000, and March 25, 2001.[1][2] The series was directed by Hiroyuki Kakudō and produced by Keisuke Okuda. Music for Digimon Adventure 02 was composed by Takanori Arisawa, and characters were designed by Katsuyoshi Nakatsuru.[3] The story, set in an alternate timeline of the real world, opens four years after the events of Digimon Adventure with the next generation of DigiDestined children.[a] In their quest to maintain peace in the Digital World, the kids battle both new and returning foes. In a 2001 survey published by Japanese anime and entertainment magazine Animage of its readers, Digimon Adventure 02 placed 17th on the list of anime that should be most remembered in the 21st century. It tied with the 1988 film My Neighbor Totoro.[7]
The series has aired in many countries in Asia, Europe, and the Americas in a combination of dubbed and subtitled versions. For example, Mexican public and cable television channels aired both versions of the anime.[8] In the United States, the English dub of Digimon Adventure 02 began airing on Fox Kids on August 19, 2000.[9][10] Following the discontinuation of the programming block, it aired on ABC Family,[11] Toon Disney, and Disney XD.[12] During its airing on Fox Kids, the series helped push the network into first place during the February 2001 Nielsen ratings sweeps among viewers aged 6–11.[13] The episodes of Digimon Adventure 02 have also been made available digitally through various media outlets. The first 15 episodes were made available for download on IGN's Direct2Drive service in July 2008.[14] The subtitled version of the series has been hosted on the streaming media website Crunchyroll since October 27, 2008.[15] In a digital partnership with Toei, Funimation Entertainment also began streaming the subtitled Digimon Adventure 02 on its online video portal on April 3, 2009.[16] Volume DVDs have been released by Toei in Japan, and boxed sets have been released by Happinet in Japan and by Alliance Entertainment in North America.
In the original Japanese version, the opening theme of the series was "Target: Akai Shōgeki" (ターゲット～赤い衝撃～, Tāgetto: Akai Shōgeki, lit. "Target: Red Shock") by Kōji Wada.[3] Two ending themes by Ai Maeda (credited as AiM) were used, "Ashita wa Atashi no Kaze ga Fuku" (アシタハアタシノカゼガフク, lit. "Tomorrow My Wind Will Blow") and "Itsumo Itsudemo" (いつもいつでも, lit. "Always Whenever").[3][17] The English opening reuses the theme song from Digimon Adventure by Paul Gordon.
The second season of Digimon: Digital Monsters (aka Digimon Adventure 02 in the original, unedited Japanese version) was licensed by Saban Entertainment in North America. The show initially aired on Fox Kids and Fox Family Channel, before distribution rights were held by Disney/BVS, later airing on Toon Disney and ABC Family.

Ken meets Yukio Oikawa, who knows his past and wants to copy the data of the Dark Spore embedded in his neck for the kidnapped children. The rest of the DigiDestined fight LadyDevimon and MarineDevimon to catch up to him. Yolei and Cody are both forced to watch their Digimon partners kill other Digimon for the first time. | ||||||

|
Having reached his goal, Oikawa hands Ken over to Daemon. Davis and the other DigiDestined intervene, but Imperialdramon and the other Digimon are powerless against him. As Daemon is able to move freely between the Real and Digital Worlds, Ken takes a risk in redirecting the portal to the Dark Ocean. Oikawa lets the kidnapped children return home as he and his followers escape. | ||||||

|
While the DigiDestined monitor the children, BlackWarGreymon confronts Oikawa, who tells him the truth about his creation. BlackWarGreymon is angered by what he hears and tries to attack him. He is stopped by both WarGreymon and Imperialdramon. After a fierce battle, they plead with BlackWarGreymon to befriend them. | ||||||

One of the children's Dark Spores blooms into a Dark Flower and is harvested by Oikawa, despite the DigiDestined's best efforts to stop him. When Cody's grandfather fails to dissuade him, BlackWarGreymon takes a fatal blow to protect him. Noticing that Oikawa is possessed, he uses his remaining power to seal Highton View Terrace's portal to the Digital World. | ||||||

|
Oikawa attempts to bring the children to the Digital World, but because BlackWarGreymon sealed Highton View Terrace's portal, they end up in the Dream World. Oikawa's possession manifests as Myotismon, who Digivolves into MaloMyotismon using the Dark Spores and kills Arukenimon and Mummymon in cold blood. The DigiDestined become fearful of Malomyotismon and losing their Digimon, with the exception of Davis, who charges into battle with Exveemon. | ||||||

|
MaloMyotismon tempts the DigiDestined with illusions of their dreams, but Davis, whose dream was that ExVeemon could grow more powerful to defeat him, guides them out. The others follow his example, causing the Digimon to duplicate all Digivolutions. The attacks of all the Digimon send MaloMyotismon into the Digital World, leaving only Imperialdramon fighter mode, Silphymon and Shakkoumon to face him, as he increases his powers. | ||||||
| 50 | "A Million Points of Light" ("Our Digital World") Transliteration: "Bokura no Dejitaru Wārudo" (Japanese: ぼくらのデジタルワールド) | Hiroyuki Kakudō | Genki Yoshimura | March 25, 2001 | May 19, 2001 | |
|
Assisted by DigiDestined all over the world and the kidnapped children, the DigiDestined weaken MaloMyotismon with their dreams and Imperialdramon destroys him, ending Myotismon’s reign of terror for good. Oikawa sacrifices himself by using the power of the Dream World dimension to become data and restoring the Digital World. Twenty-five years later, everyone in the Real World has a Digimon partner, and the DigiDestined's kids hold the responsibility of protecting the worlds. | ||||||
