Captain Satsuma, Megumi Shirokawa, and Miki Kurosaki
  • Captain Rentarou Satsuma: Rentarou Satsuma is Masaru, Tohma, and Yoshino's superior officer, responsible for giving them orders and supervising all operations from the base. More often than not, his purpose was to delegate to his subordinates from the command center. However, when Akihiro Kurata's machinations led to his team being dissolved, he was arrested. Presumably broken out by his digimon partner, Kudamon, he rejoined his team. When they resolved to try and enter the Digital World, Satsuma and Kudamon were forced to remain behind, and hold off the three mysterious beings known as Kouki, Ivan, and Nanami, who had the power to turn into Digimon. Satsuma and Kudamon battled them, and were last seen in an explosion. It is unknown if or how they survived.
Before the start of the series, Satsuma was a private investigator who worked with Hiroshi Yushima. After investigating multiple missing persons cases, they came to learn that the disappearances were the result of the opening of numerous gates that led to the strange realm known as the Digital World. Satsuma and Yushima joined an expedition into the Digital World, where they came to know Masaru's father, Suguru. However, they were forced to return to the Human World without him. After this, Suguru somehow managed to send something to the human world - Yushima and Kudamon's partners, Kudamon and Kamemon, as well as the data for the Digivice. Satsuma then became the Captain of the Japanese branch of DATS.
Satsuma is voiced by Taiten Kusunoki.
  • Kudamon: Kudamon is Satsuma's Digimon partner, who is commonly seen curled around his partner's neck, like a scarf. Though he does not fight much, he has the power to digivolve into his Champion (Adult) form, Reppamon, as well as his Ultimate (Perfect) form, Qilinmon.
Kudamon is voiced by Nanaho Katsuragi.
  • Miki Kurosaki and Megumi Shirokawa: The two DATS computer operators. They are partners with the two PawnChessmon, and primarily aid the team from the control room. It is they that usually identify a Digimon when it appears in the real world. After their DATS branch was disbanded, Miki and Megumi were left behind with Ikuto's family while the rest of the team went to the Digital World.
Miki is voiced by Ai Nagano, and Megumi by Yukiko Hanioka.
  • PawnChessmon Black and White: Miki and Megumi's two Digimon partners. While completely silent, they aid the group from behind the scenes, and can even digivolve (evolve) KnightChessmon to fight alongside their comrades as well.
Hiroshi Yushima

Hiroshi Yushima
  • Chief Hiroshi Yushima: Hiroshi Yushima is the chief officer of DATS, and is a former private investigator as well as a member of the expedition to the Digital World. When the series began, he appeared to Masaru, giving him his Digivice. The old man would appear again, mostly at opportune times, to give Masaru advice pertaining to his latest challenge. The facts about him were later revealed when he journeyed to the Digital World in order to aid Masaru and the others in their first encounter with the Digimon known as Mercurimon. Yushima was eventually forced to help them escape back to the Human World, and disappeared in a cave-in inside Mercurimon's lair. He later reappeared, captured by the Digimon riding on ElDoradimon, until it was revealed that the Digimon saw Masaru's (who was also present) father as their savior, and they were set free. Later, Yushima helped in the fight against the Gizmon, attempting to prevent their attacking ElDoradimon, but it was in vain, as ElDoradimon was transported back to the Human World via a Digital Gate and later destroyed.
Yushima is voiced by Yuuichi Nagashima.
  • Kamemon: Kamemon is Yushima's Digimon partner, though this fact was not known for some time. The Digimon typically appeared doing grunt work in DATS headquarters, and his relationship with Yushima was not known until the old man called on him to help him in Mercurimon's lair. He disappeared along with Yushima, later reappearing on ElDoradimon, where he finally spoke a full sentence (although, the group's surprise at this caused him to retract his head into his shell). He later helped in the fight against the Gizmon attacking ElDoradimon.
Kamemon is voiced by Naozumi Takahashi.

[edit] Daimon Family

  • Sayuri Daimon: Sayuri is Masaru and Chika's mother, as well as Suguru Daimon's wife. When she first appeared, she reacted somewhat casually to Agumon's presence, giving the impression that she was somewhat simple-minded. However, it was eventually revealed that she had been knowledgable of the existence of Digimon for some time. Though kind and supportive of her son, she is somewhat fearful when he voiced that he had to go to the Digital World and stop the machinations of Kurata. Her memories of the family's time with Agumon were temporarily erased, but that seems to have been reversed. She later appears to give the former DATS team dinner, and is very dumbfounded when meeting BantyoLeomon for the first time.
Sayuri is voiced by Mariko Kouda.
  • Chika Daimon: Chika is Masaru's sister. She was immediately taken with and friendly towards Masaru's rival and friend Touma, and it was her wish that she escort her and her mother on her birthday. Later, Chika befriended a newly hatched Digimon who eventually became Biyomon (Piyomon), but this relationship ended in tragedy when Biyomon was struck down, and later driven to madness after being revived. When her friend was finally defeated, Chika was happy to know her friend no longer had to suffer. Later, her memories of her experiences with digimon were apparently erased by the Confidentiality Ministry, but she seems to have regained them.
Chika is voiced by Kokoro Kikuchi.
  • Suguru Daimon: Though he has never been seen personally, Daimon Suguru's legacy is felt throughout the series. He is Masaru's father, and a member of the expedition to the Digital World. When the group was forced to escape back to the human world, he was left behind, and for a while, it was unknown what happened to him. That is, until the answers were revealed by the Digimon called Mercurimon. Suguru had remained back in the Digital World in order to seek out the "god" of the Digital World named Yggdrasil. Before that, however, he created the Digivice, and sent the data for it to the human world along with Kudamon and Kamemon. After making a deal with Mercurimon to preserve the peace of both worlds, he departed. His current whereabouts are unknown, although he seems to have a connection with BantyoLeomon, evidenced by the second opening.
Suguru is voiced by Hozumi Gôda.

[edit] Digimon

  • Mercurimon: Mercurimon is a powerful Digimon and one of the Olympus Twelve.[1] He raised Ikuto after the death of Ikuto's guardian, Frigimon, and ruled over a portion of the Digital World from his palace, the Infinity Ice Ridge. He was originally open to the idea of trusting in humans, and formed a friendship with Suguru Daimon. His trust in him was shattered, though, when Akihiro Kurata lead an attack on it. This lead to the resolution that humans were evil, and made every effort to avoid them. However, when the truth was revealed by Kurata himself, Mercurimon decided to try believing in Suguru's words again, and sacrificed his life to save Ikuto, Masaru, and the others.
  • BantyoLeomon:A lion Digimon that seems to have a connection to Suguru Daimon. At one point, he rescued the group from numerous Gizmon XT. Later, he appeared to the group, and ultimately helped them in the proccess of mastering the full power of their Digi-Soul. He then departed, leaving Touma and the others to wonder just who he was and how much he knew. He later appears in the Human World to inform Masaru about the Burst Mode. His arrival in the presence of all three members of the Daimon family (and his small grin towards Sayuri and Chika) makes one wonder about his past, and true identity.
  • ElDoradimon: A massive Digimon that resembles a turtle. He is, in fact, the Holy Capital of the Digital World, in that he carries an entire city of Digimon on his back. Ultimately, he came under attack from Kurata's forces, and was sent to the real world, where Masaru and the others failed to protect him, resulting in his being impaled and destroyed by a massive lance created by way of merging numerous Gizmon together with a weapon.
  • Baromon: The leader of the Digimon living on ElDoradimon. He sees Daimon Suguru as a sort of savior to his people, and thusly, did the same for Masaru. He participated in the defense of ElDoradimon, only to be wiped out by a Gizmon XT when he actively tried to challenge Kurata's plans.

[edit] Primary Antagonists

[edit] Kurata

Main article: Akihiro Kurata

Kurata was once part of the expedition to the Digital World, along with Yushima, Satsuma, Suguru Daimon, and several others. This event left a huge impression on Kurata, leading his hatred and fear of all Digimon. He led an army of soldiers into the Digital World, where he began a massacre that was stopped by Mercurimon. Resurfacing years later with the intention to continue his work, he began a series of events that culminated in the death of Mercurimon at the hands of his creation, Gizmon, and the dissolution of the Japanese branch of DATS. He has since returned to the Digital World, intent on continuing his efforts to inflict genocide on Digimon.

Kurata is the creator of the Gizmon, whose attacks can result in a Digimon being permanently deleted. He also presumably gave Kouki, Nanami, and Ivan the power to turn into Digimon.

[edit] Bio-Hybrids

The Bio-Hybrids are three Digimon hunters under Kurata's command. Consisting of Kouki, Ivan, and Nanami, they have the ability to turn into Digimon thanks to the fact that Kurata combined their DNA with the data of a Digimon. First possessing three forms based on Armor Digimon, they are later given more powerful forms that are equal in strength to Mega-level Digimon (Ultimate-level digimon).

[edit] Kouki

Kouki and BioThunderbirmon
Enlarge
Kouki and BioThunderbirmon

Kouki is one of the modified (seemingly) human individuals with the power to turn into a Digimon through the process of Hyper Bio Evolution. He first appeared to defend Kurata from Ikuto and Yatagaramon. He then appeared before the series' heroes, where he clashed fists with Masaru - an act that alerted everyone to the fact that he was no mere human. However, both his and his comrades' attack were halted by Satsuma and Kudamon.

Kouki's voice is supplied by KENN.

BioThunderbirmon: BioThunderbirmon is Kouki's Digimon form, based on the Armor Digimon Thunderbirdmon.

  • Attacks
    • Thunder Storm: Releases a wave of thunder and electricity from his wings.

BioDarkdramon: BioThunderbirmon's next stage, based on Darkdramon, which Kouki assumes through "Hyper Bio Extra Evolution", which he gained the ability to do after having his body combined with the data of a Mega (Ultimate) Digimon. He fought ShineGreymon in the real world in order to keep him from interfering with Kurata's plans. He was destroyed and reverted to Kouki and a digi-egg after ShineGreymon impaled him through the chest with the Geo Grey Sword.

  • Attacks
    • Giga Stick Lance: Attacks with the lance built into his arm.
    • Dark Roar: Creates an explosive ball of dark matter, and directs it at his enemy.

[edit] Nanami

Another one of the modified individuals working for Kurata. After the DATS building was destroyed, she and Ivan chased after Satsuma, and later fought Miki, Megumi, and the two PawnChessmon before facing Masaru and the others along with both her colleagues. She dresses rather oddly, carrying an umbrella, and wearing clothing in the style of Gothic Lolita. Nanami is also something of a genius herself, and used her intelligence to counter the battle strategies of Touma after gaining the ability to become BioLotusmon. However, Nanami was defeated when Tohma used an attack that was reminiscent of Masaru's reckless fighting style.

It is unknown whether or not Nanami perished after this fight.

BioCoatlmon: BioCoatlmon is Nanami's Digimon form, based on the Digimon Quetzalmon.[2]

  • Attacks
    • Freeze Wave: Wraps around her foe and releases a wave of paralyzing energy.

BioLotusmon: BioCoatlmon's next stage, who she assumes through "Hyper Bio Extra Evolution", which she gained the ability to do after having her body combined with the data of a Mega (Ultimate) Digimon. The only Bio Digimon not based on an already-existing Digimon. She has the ability to use her snake-bearing staff to induce hallucinations. Ultimately, Nanami was unable to handle the power of a Mega Digimon and she regressed to her human form while her Digimon half became a Digi-Egg. The Digiegg is very similar in pattern to that of Wormmon's Adventure 02. Since Quetzalmon is an Armor form of Wormmon's, it's very possible that if Nanami returns, Wormmon could be her partner.

  • Attacks
    • Seventh Fantasia: Fires a rainbow-colored beam from her flower-ended staff.

[edit] Ivan

The strong man of the trio consisting of himself, Nanami, and Kouki. Ivan seems to have difficulty with-holding his inner thoughts, and tends to blurt out what he's thinking without realizing it. After meeting her for the first time, he developed a sort of attraction towards Yoshino (calling her his "beloved honey" at one point). After gaining his ability to assume his final form, this prompted him to engage Rosemon in a duel for Yoshino's love, only for him to be defeated at their hands.

In the same episode this battle occurred in, it was revealed that Ivan is something of a mercenary, and underwent his transformation into a BioHybrid for the sake of money. It was also learned that he also had many brothers and sisters, and that he was fighting for their sakes.

Ivan is apparently Russian.

BioStegomon: BioStegomon is Ivan's Digimon form, possessing strength as well as durability. He is based on the Digimon Stegomon.

  • Attacks
    • Shell Needle Rain: Fires off the numerous spikes on his back.
    • Guillotine Wheel: Spins, turning into a living saw and slicing with his row of spikes.[3]

BioSpinomon: BioStegomon's next stage, based on Spinomon, which Ivan assumes through "Hyper Bio Extra Evolution", which he gained the ability to do after having his body combined with the data of a Mega (Ultimate) Digimon. BioSpinomon is has both armor and rows of detachable spikes on his body.

  • Attacks
    • Blue Prominence: Breathes a burst of blue-hot flames.
    • Sonic Slash Rain: Fires off the main row of spikes on his back.[4]

[edit] Other

  • Gotsumon: Gotsumon was a minion of Mercurimon, who both hated and feared humans, even Ikuto, whom his master had raised. Despite his master's orders not to get involved with the humans' actions, he attacked the members of DATS on numerous occasions, and even temporarily sided with SaberLeomon. His final effort had him taking a stand as his Ultimate (Perfect) form, Meteormon (Insekimon), but he was destroyed by RiseGreymon.
  • SaberLeomon: SaberLeomon is a powerful Mega-level digimon, who terrorized the expedition team that Satsuma and Suguru Daimon were a part of. Back then, he was defeated by Suguru personally, an act that would prove to be ironically haunting years later. Ten years later, SaberLeomon confronted Mercurimon about his supposed cowardice in dealing with humans. He struck an alliance with Gotsumon, who he had lead SaberLeomon's army into the human world. When this failed, he attacked the human world personally - only to fall prey to Kurata's schemes. He was struck by a beam from Gizmon, one of Kurata's creations, which weakened him to the point that Masaru could shatter his fang. He was then defeated by RiseGreymon, and his Digi-Egg was destroyed.
SaberLeomon's voice was supplied by Hitoshi Bifu.

[edit] Other Characters

Chief Hashiba.
Enlarge
Chief Hashiba.
  • Chief Hashiba: Chief Hashiba is a representative from the Japanese Confidentiality Ministry, whose responsibility is to over-see DATS. Hashiba first appeared after the Digimon known as Mercurimon made his presence known, and threatened to shut down DATS for blowing their cover. He appeared again when it appeared that Kenji and Misuzu Noguchi had opened a gate to the Digital World, and had them taken into government custody. After this, he seemed to fall prey to (or cooperated) with the machinations of Kurata) and had the memories of the DATS personnel and their families' memories erased.
Hashiba's is voiced by Satoshi Tsuruoka.
  • Kenji Noguchi and Misuzu Noguchi: Kenji and Misuzu are Ikuto's biological parents, as well as the father and mother of his young sister. Ten years ago, they attempted to create a Digital Gate, but disaster struck when Ikuto was drawn into it. They joined the expedition into the Digital World in order to find him, but they were forced to return to the human world with the others before they could. They were reunited with their son years later, however, but their reunion was interrupted when a Digimon called Hagurumon appeared in their home, and transformed their house into a monster based on a toy Ikuto had as a child. Hashiba appeared, accusing them of illegally creating another Digital Gate, and took them into custody. Later, they were approached by Masaru, Tohma, and Yoshino, who asked them to create a Digital Gate for them. They agreed, and despite reservations on not having more time to spend with the son they never knew, they gave Ikuto their blessing to go as well.
Kenji's voice is supplied by Hiroshi Naka and Misuzu's is performed by Niina Kumagaya.
  • Frigimon (Yukidarumon): Frigimon was Ikuto's surrogate mother after he was left stranded in the Digital World. Having heard his mother's cries for him on the other side of the gate, she came to know his name, and decided that she would take care of him. However, her life ended in tragedy during Kurata's attack on the Digital World, as she was struck by a beam from one of the attacking Gizmon.
Frigimon was voiced by Tomoko Ohtsuka.
  • Tsubasa Hayase (Hayase Tsubasa): A famous boxer whose career was an inspiration to Tohma as a child. Some time ago, he was critically injured in a match. However, his career enjoyed a resurgence due to maladies that affected his opponents, which led DATS to suspect a Digimon's involvement. In truth, it was Tsubasa's daughter, Manami, who was using the Digimon, a Togemon, in order to ensure her father's victory. Tohma and Gaomon defeated Togemon, and explained what had happened to her father. Despite losing his memories of the event, he resolved to fight his title match, even with the risk to his body, all in order to show his daughter the way he was meant to fight - fairly and honestly.
Tsubasa's voice was supplied by Isshin Chiba.
  • Hitoshi "Neon" Hanamura (Hanamura Hitoshi): A childhood schoolmate of Yoshino's, Hitoshi was often ridiculed by his peers for his weight. Years later, he became a well-known pop singer, using the alias of "Neon Hanamura", whose sudden rise in popularity attracted the suspicion of DATS. It became known that he was using a Keramon to manipulate digital information to widen the audience of his music, as well as manipulate statistics for downloads and rankings of his songs. Yoshino went undercover and began a relationship with him, but when it appeared she was getting too attached to the case, Tohma decided it was time to act. Eventually, all three members of the team confronted Neon, and the young man's anxiety led to him inadvertently causing Keramon to digivolve into Chrysalimon. Despite losing what he'd worked so hard for, in the end, Neon's greatest regret was that he'd have his memory erased, and thereby lose all memory of coming to know Yoshino again.
Neon's voice was supplied by Tomokazu Seki.
  • Koichiro Shiratori (Shiratori Kouichiro): Koichiro was a schoolmate of Masaru's, whose dream it was to follow in his father's footsteps as the proprietor of his family's store, which was famous for its manjuu. However, the store had fallen on tough times after Kouichiro's mother had fallen sick, leading to his father becoming desperate for money. This led to his Koichiro's father becoming obsessed with gambling, leading to him falling prey to three DemiDevimon (PicoDevimon) and a Vilemon (Evilmon), who sought to use his greed to grow in power. They disguised themselves as an idol statue, and rigged horse races in Koichiro's father's favor. However, Masaru discovered this, and with Yoshino, destroyed the four digimon. In the end, Koichiro and his father made peace, and resolved to re-vitalize their store.
  • Drimogemon / Digmon: This Drimogemon was one of many Digimon to breach the gap between the Digital World and the human world, but he was significant in regards to the events that lead to his defeat. He was accidentally brought to this world through the equipment used by two would-be bank robbers. Their greed caused Drimogemon to increase in size and rage out of control, and eventually, it escaped back to the Digital World. However, Tohma, unable to accept his failure or the chance that Drimogemon could lead even more Digimon to the human world, went to the Digital World after him. Masaru followed him, and together, they faced Drimogemon. Before he was defeated, however, he digivolved into Digmon, forcing Tohma and Masaru to combine their digimon's power against him. This lead to both accepting one another as team-mates.
Drimogemon was voiced by Satoshi Tsuruoka.

[edit] Future Characters

The following characters are reported to appear in the series, as indicated by various sources, such as the series' opening and foreshadowing in the series itself.

  • Belphemon: A digimon floating in a tank that is overseen by Kurata. He matches the appearance of Belphemon Sleep Mode, which has been seen in the Digimon Card Game.

[edit] Notes

  1. ^ Mercurimon was called a member of the Olympus Twelve by Frigimon in a flashback in episode 24, "The Revealed Past - Heartless! Gizmon: AT".
  2. ^ As the series is not yet dubbed, BioCoatlmon is referred to by its Japanese name, rather than assuming it would be the same as its normal counterpart's English name, Quetzalmon.
  3. ^ BioStegomon's second attack was not named in dialogue, but it matches the name and description of Stegomon proper's secondary attack.
  4. ^ While this is not named in the show, looking at the normal Spinomon's attacks can lead one to infer that this move is, in fact, Sonic Slash Rain.
