In 1999, the Digimon brand began, a product that is still considered an opponent of Pokémon to this day. There have been several iterations of this anime over time, starting with the original Digimon Adventure from 1999, followed by Digimon Adventure 2 from 2000, and many more.
The third iteration of the franchise was Digimon tamers which radically changed some mechanics, but also the main locations where the adventures took place. With new digital creatures and storylines, Digimon Tamers will be remembered by fans today. Since it began broadcasting in 2001, it means Digimon Tamers will be 20 years old this year.
To celebrate the twentieth anniversary, the anime will be the protagonist of two pop-up stores in Japan called “Digimon Tamers Popup Store -20th Anniversary-“, Which will be present in the Natalie Store of SHIBUYA109 in Tokyo from June 25th to July 4th.
