List of Digimon Adventure characters
Digimon Adventure, Digimon Adventure 02, Digimon Adventure tri. ''Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna, Digimon Adventure 02: The Beginning, and the 2020 reboot of Digimon Adventure are produced by Toei Animation for the Digimon franchise, are centered on the DigiDestined, a group of children chosen to protect the Digital World. Each child is partnered with a Digimon and use a Digivice to help them Digivolve into stronger forms.
The main DigiDestined cast was designed by Katsuyoshi Nakatsuru. Producer Satoru Nishizono and the staff used a name analysis software to decide on the characters' names, using kanji combinations that related to "luck". For Digimon Adventure tri., director Keitaro Motonaga found that some parts of developing the characters were "difficult to control" due to the characters' "strong personalities", but the staff had "rebuilt" the characters by taking account of their personal growth while retaining their original personalities. A new group of DigiDestined, in addition to T.K. and Kari, were made into the new main cast for Digimon Adventure 02'', consisting of Davis, Yolei, Cody and later Ken.
