[edit] Description
Koji was the child chosen to wield the Spirit of Light. Koji starts the series as the group loner - a kid who wanted friends, but never had the chance to make any because he had to change schools too many times. Koji receives Ophanimon's cell phone message while he was out buying flowers for his stepmother. He followed the instructions on the SMS, which led to a subway station where a Trailmon took him to the Digital World.
Koji travelled alone until he met Tommy Himi and J. P. Shibayama and had to save the two from a horde of attacking Pagumon. From then on, Koji showed up to help the other Digi Destined from time to time, and then eventually joins the group permanently.
Koji also meets his twin brother, Kouichi Kimura, for the first time in the Digital World. Koji's parents had split up when they were young, and his mother had moved out with Kouichi Kimura and their grandmother. Koji's father remarried, told Koji that his mother had died, and never informed him of his twin brother. As such, Koji never knew he had a brother, let alone a twin.
Ironically, Koji was the last to find out that Kouichi, in the Digital World, was only spirit with a semi-physical form (in the real world, Kouichi fell down a flight of stairs and went into a coma). Bokomon overheard the conversation between Kouichi and Crusadermon, and was forced into telling the others (Takuya, Zoe, J.P, and Tommy) while Koji and Kouichi were out of hearing range.
[edit] Digimon forms
Koji wields AncientGarurumon's power through the "Spirit of Light".
He never goes to the Rookie stage of Lobomon, Strabimon, stage in the show.
[edit] Lobomon
 
Lobomon (Wolfmon) is Koji's Digimon form when he uses the Human Spirit of Light. The name "Lobomon" comes from "Lobo", the Spanish word for "Wolf". Lobomon first appears in "Lobomon: Warrior of Light" of Digimon Frontier. Tommy and J.P. were being chased by a group of Pagumon and fell into a mysterious chamber. They were found by Koji, who beat off the Pagumon using a pole. However, a Pagumon digivolved into Raremon, and turned the tables against Koji. Takuya and Zoe arrived and Takuya proceeded to use Spirit Digivolve. However, he lost the fight and reverted to his human form. Trying to push Tommy away from an attack, Takuya accidentally pushed Koji into a deep hole. Raremon's acid attack hit the wall at just the correct spot, releasing a beam of light that revealed Koji's Human Spirit of Light. This allowed Koji to Spirit Evolve into Lobomon for the first time.

[edit] KendoGarurumon
KendoGarurumon (Garmumon) is Koji's digimon form when he uses the Beast Spirit of Light. KendoGarurumon is a wolf-like digimon who can move at the speed of light. It looks similar to MetalGarurumon. KendoGarurumon first appears on "Can't Keep a Grumblemon Down" when the group fought against Grumblemon. Koji helped some Gotsumon by replacing a gem into the eye of a rock, and released the Beast Spirit of Light. Koji became the first of the group to Spirit Evolve with a Beast Spirit, turning into KendoGarurumon and defeats Grumblemon. He had trouble at first controlling the Beast Spirit but quickly got over it. Attacks

[edit] Beowulfmon
Koji assumes this form when he gains the power to combine both his spirits. Beowulfmon's name derives from the Epic poem Beowulf, and the poem's protagonist hero of the same name. Beowulfmon first appears in "Stuck in Sakkakumon with You", where Koji was trapped within Mercurymon's Darkness Sphere. Koji fought, and was defeated by Duskmon, forcing him to revert to his human form. About to be killed by Duskmon, Koji started thinking back to all the things he felt he regretted in his life. His will to continue living wakened Seraphimon's Digi-Egg, upgrading Koji's D-Tector and giving him the power to combine his Beast and Human Spirits. Attacks

[edit] MagnaGarurumon
Koji achieves this form when he Unifies the Spirits of Light, Darkness, Thunder, Water and Steel. He fights against, and eventually defeats, Dynasmon and Crusadermon alongside EmperorGreymon. This is the form he assumes during most of his fights against Crusadermon. He also fights against the corrupted Cherubimon. When he attacks with any move except Magna Saber, the weapon falls away from MagnaGarurumon afterwards, meaning he can only use each attack (except Magna Saber) once per use of this form. Attacks

[edit] Susanoomon
Susanoomon is created when all 10 spirits left by the Ancient Warriors are fused together, and possesses the combined powers of all 10 Legendary Warriors. The name "Susanoomon" comes from the Shinto Storms God Susanoo. When Kouichi sacrificed himself to save the others from Lucemon Chaos Mode, he gave his Spirit of Darkness to his brother Koji. Takuya and Koji then brought all 10 Spirits together and became Susanoomon. In this form, they fought against Lucemon twice - the first time against Lucemon Chaos Mode, and then again to stop Lucemon Shadow Lord Mode from entering the human world. In this second fight against Lucemon, Susanoomon was able to penetrate the shadow-sphere where Lucemon Larva was hiding. In the final battle, Susanoomon managed to shatter the shadow-sphere, destroy Lucemon Shadow Lord Mode, and then split into the 10 separate Legendary Warriors and destroyed Lucemon once and for all.
