The show features a very distinct art style, reminiscent of Terry Gilliam's animation from Monty Python's Flying Circus, in which all the characters are made out of cutouts of black and white photographs. It is similar in nature to that of South Park.

The characters also appear as an introduction to Digimon: The Movie, released outside of Japan. This is to help disguise the fact that the movie is three Japanese movies cut together.

The animation style is also copied for the music video "Kids in America" by Len, shown at the end of the movie.
