I haven't seen it yet. I'll have to buy it on home media first if it's not shown on TV. (I still haven't seen Sailor Moon Crystal either, partly because the prices for that series are outrageous due to SM being so popular.)

The series is currently being shown on Crunchyroll, even without the need for a subscription so long as you don’t mind the occasional ads. The only downside is just those without a subscription will be a week behind.
It‘s been a bit since I watched the 2020 series, took a break around episode 27, but what I have seen has been pretty good
and I’ve seen a few clips regarding alternate forms and digivolutions for the partner Digimon and that’s a neat surprise to help it stand on its own two feet. I’ll come back to it sooner or later, but so far, it’s solid 
Been catching premieres for the reboot since day one and yeah, I can definitely say it started out strong and was glad that they're doing a new original storyline for the reboot instead of just reusing the one from the original anime. The pacing gets pretty janky imo once you get past the first batch of episodes after they introduce nearly everyone in the main cast.
Spoiler Show
Digimon "Ghost Game", coming fall 2021, taking over the "Adventure" reboot.
The new film will tell a story about Daisuke Motomiya and the other characters from the Digimon Adventure 02 anime. Director Tomohisa Taguchi and writer Akatsuki Yamatoya are reuniting from Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna to work on the new film. Below is an "super-early teaser trailer" for the film:
The film's teaser visual reads, "The new Digimon film is 02. Now, the gates to adventure open …. 'I'm the world's first human to form a partner relationship with a Digimon."

Ghost Game is an interesting title for a Digimon series. Looking forward to seeing how it turns out. Also, I don’t know who’ll be adapting characte designs for animation, but I can tell the Ghost Game kids were drawn by Tenya Yabuno, artist of Digimon V-Tamer 01.
Also I’m curious to see how the new 02 movie will address Kizuna, if at all, along with the story they plan to tell. Either way, it’s a good time to be a Digimon fan

Soo this happened at a DigiFest not long ago.
They have a Digmon convention themed around Tamers, and the original Tamers writer decided to use the audio drama to just make it his soapbox to have a cry about conspiracy theories and other dumb stuff he’s into on the internet.

I believe it’s a live read of a script written by Konaka, read by the seiyuu from Tamers.

Digimon Sparks Backlash Over "Political Correctness" Script
Digimon is celebrating a big anniversary this year, and there is plenty coming for the franchise as such. Not only is there a new TV show and film in the works, but the team behind Digimon Tamers came together for a special event this week. But after watching the stage show, well – fans were […]

Yeah... Cancel Culture and political correctness, as annoying and unbearable as they often can be in many situations I've seen play out online, aren't responsible for "fake news." That's mostly coming from social media bot farms. To blame political correctness for the mass lies online sounds very Trumpy. If they were simply having a nuanced critique of Cancel Culture--God knows there's plenty of incidents to criticize--that would be one thing, but that part of blaming it for fakes news makes it sound like rightwing propaganda / drivel.
Thankfully I was never a big fan of Tamers anyway. I'm glad it didn't happen to anything related to the Adventure re-make.

It’s worth noting that the script was written only by Konaka left to his own devices with no involvement from Toei, as stated by the man himself :
www.animenewsnetwork.com
While I haven’t watched the script reading in question, using those terms for a villain name and attack is fairly cringey. Somehow I get the feeling if different terms were used or if Toei had some input on the script he was writing, this backlash could have been avoided.
The 2018 script was a really neat idea though, would’ve rather had a direct continuation to that so it could follow up on that cliffhanger.

Yep, and I’m looking forward to it
I actually like that we’re getting a new dub cast for the Digidestined and partner Digimon. The 2020 anime went with a new cast for the kids in the Japanese language, so why not? Plus it’s a new continuity, so while we likely won’t hear any reprisals from the old cast, there is still the 02 movie in the works where that could happen.
And speaking of the new cast, with the knowledge that Ben Diskin is Agumon this time around, maybe that means we’ll here both old and new voices in the franchise as different characters separated from previous iterations, eg. Steve Blum as Leomon or Max Mittelman as Gomamon. Either way, looking forward to seeing who else they cast

Well, the tri. series sort of ruined the whole thing for me by re-casting Matt / Yamato unnecessarily (with the original anime's dub voice actor saying he wasn't even asked to return online, when he would've been willing)... So I mean, might as well just re-cast everyone for the new anime.

I had a feeling the new series was gonna be a full on recast with this being a reboot (though not a very good one from what I've heard). Whoever's voicing both Joe and Mimi have some incredibly large shoes to fill after the unfortunate passing with both Michael Lindsay and Philece Sampler.
