 * Most of the production crew for this movie differs from past seasons. The recently-formed Stuidopolis Inc.(responsible for the English dubs of show such as Zatch Bell and Naruto) is behind the Post-Production of the movie. However, the movie also marks the return of some past faces to the Digimon franchise - Jeff Nimoy returns as Director and Writer, not having been involved with the show since Season Two, and Rita M. Majkut, Producer of Season One, also makes her reappearance.
