The dubbed versions of Digimon Adventure, Zero-Two, Tamers, and Frontier are scheduled to leave Hulu in 13 days.


They've left and reappeared before, including some extensions when they were scheduled to end, but contracts were renewed, so we will see what happens.


Thanks to WTK for the heads up and the image.


Discotek recently announced a Blu-ray remaster of Season 1 is in the works.

That does make we wonder about the reboot dub, maybe it wont be on Hulu based on this.

Given Discotek now has the BD rights of the first season of Digimon, I won't be surprised if the dub shows back up on streaming at some point, whether on Hulu or Crunchyroll or someone else, though it not might be right away. But with the upcoming BD release, Digimon will be back in some official capacity, so I'm not too worried about the Hulu stream expiring. And thankfully I already own the previous Cinedigm DVDs which you can still easily find used copies of on eBay at decent prices and sometimes I still see the singles at bargain bins at stores. But with Digimon still being a good seller for Toei, they're not about to let it stay off streaming for long.

With the reboot dub announced at the global stream of the Digimon Con, the dub will almost certainly on Crunchyroll, who still has a successful business relationship with Toei directly. If Hulu streams the dub, it would be more likely as a sublicense through Crunchyroll. Hulu hasn't streamed any anime exclusives in years, not since they streamed s2 of One Punch Man and the Viz dub of the 90s Sailor Moon. Hulu pretty much only now streams shows that are already on other anime sites and Viz's backlog. I don't think Hulu ever finished adding the rest of the Adventure: sub even.

I looked up Discotek Media and their library and seems like a lot of their anime, stream on Roku TV platforms and Pluto TV. I can see Digimon going on there at some point, I’ve seen Monster Rancher & Medabots airing on some Roku anime channel. I’ve also seen Digimon Adventure Tri airing on both of those streaming services. Just speculation of course.
