History Characters / DigimonStoryCyberSleuth

* RevengeBeforeReason: While the other Royal Knights of her faction sincerely see exterminating humanity as a way to save their own world, Crusadermon takes the notion UpToEleven. She's ''hellbent'' on humanity being destroyed and is the most openly callous with the notion; if she can make any human's experience needlessly painful, she'll do it; there is barely a line of dialogue she has when she's not insulting humanity in some way, shape, or form. It gets so bad, that even the usually-neutral ''Alphamon'' ends up calling her out on her behavior.

* RapunzelHair: Her hair runs down nearly to her feet, kept mostly hidden by her coat.

* AmbiguousDisorder: They're definitely...hyperactive for a protagonist. Along with their {{Cloudcuckoolander}} antics and...[[AttentionDeficitOohShiny marginal attention span]], several times they will also space out, often engaging in InnerMonologue and becoming distracted to the point that other characters take notice (most notably during the food tour the team takes). There's also the implication they have little sense of personal space or social awareness, at one point taking a comment Nokia makes regarding her "scent" to ''sniff'' her, much to Nokia's understandable bafflement, and some of their comments imply they feel more comfortable in online chats than in the real world, which, along with the incidents above, can point to Aiba possibly having A.D.H.D. or even Aspergers. [[spoiler:While at least some of their behavior can be explained by their half-digital body breaking down over time,]] they still exhibited these traits even early in the game.

The sub-leader of Hudie and a firm believer in justice. He and Ryuji have been friends for a long time, founding the hacker group together. His Digimon partner is Ankylomon.

* FastballSpecial: [[spoiler:Decides to introduce his TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to Ryuji by throwing poor little Wormon right onto his face]].

* ItWasAGift: The reason he ends up with a Shakkoumon? [[spoiler:The Angemon that Hudie's internet cafe clerk gifted him, DNA Digivolved with Chitose's own Ankylomon. Also serves as an example of GameplayAndStoryIntegration.]]

* {{Hypocrite}}: During a sidequest where a doctor refuses to treat a wounded Kuzuhamon, he has a rather negative opinion of said doctor refusing to treat a wounded digimon. However, during an attack on Akihabara later in the game, he doesn't lift a finger to help the wounded and dying Digimon in the area, failing to even acknowledge their presence (though, granted, [[spoiler:he had to deal with Q and then a crazed Ryuji before they could do more damage]]).

The founder and leader of Hudie, and Erika's older brother. His Digimon partner is Cyberdramon, and later [[spoiler:Arkadiamon]].

* {{Hypocrite}}: During a sidequest where a doctor refuses to treat a wounded Kuzuhamon, he has a rather negative opinion of said doctor refusing to treat a wounded digimon. However, during an attack on Akihabara later in the game, he doesn't lift a finger to help the wounded and dying Digimon in the area, failing to even acknowledge their presence.

* NoodleIncident:
** It's never explained ''how'' or why Barbamon was able to steal a Digivolution stage from Veevee. Let alone why Barbamon was in a Digital Shift and why there was a Digital Shift in Rina's world. Nothing else comes of the situation either after Veevee kills him with Aiba's assistance.
* ReplacementGoldfish: To the original [=UlforceVeedramon=].
** [[spoiler:The fate of the original [=UlforceVeedramon=] never gets any closure, and the rest of the Royal Knights - particularly Alphamon - all but give up on saving [=UlforceVeedramon=].]]

* NoodleIncident: It's never explained ''how'' or why Barbamon was able to steal a Digivolution stage from Veevee. Let alone why Barbamon was in a Digital Shift and why there was a Digital Shift in Rina's world. Nothing else comes of the situation either after Veevee kills him with Aiba's assistance.

-->''"Once I'd reached a certain age, I started to realize that I'm not the hero type. I'm just a background character in this world, and I appear in none of its stories. Still, someday... I dream of the day I can become a hero."''

* {{Hypocrite}}: During a sidequest where a doctor refuses to treat a wounded Kuzuhamon, he has a rather negative opinion of said doctor refusing to treat a wounded digimon. However, during an attack on Akihabara later in the game, he doesn't lift a finger to help the wounded and dying digimon in the area, failing to even acknowledge their presence.

* OutOfCharacterMoment: He spends the entire game being kind to digimon, was visibly uncomfortable with Digimon being traded in the black market, and told off a doctor for not treating a wounded Kuzuhamon in a sidequest. However, when going through an attack on Akihabara later in the game, he has no reaction to the digimon lying wounded and possibly dying around the area, leaving them to die without even thinking about helping them.

* MsFanservice: The female protagonist could be seen as this due to her DangerouslyShortSkirt, ZettaiRyouiki and her rather nice figure.

* ShesGotLegs: The female protagonist, thanks to her DangerouslyShortSkirt.

* DangerouslyShortSkirt: The female protagonist's skirt leaves little to the imagination.

* IllBoy: [[spoiler:His consciousness is trapped in the Digital World in Mother Eater's core, leaving his body in EDEN Syndrome in the real world.]]

* GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere: [[spoiler:It's a completely separate entity to every other threat introduced in the previous game that's only fought by the side characters helping out Hudie. Its whole purpose is to ensure that Erika overexerts herself saving Ryuji and get possessed by her Eater Bits to create the true FinalBoss.]]

* MoralityPet: [[spoiler:For Alphamon. [[ToBeLawfulOrToBeGood Stuck between their duty as a Royal Knight and doing what's right to protect both worlds]] they ask the protagonist to guide their allegiance.]]

* MsFanservice: She's quite explicitly hopeful that guys around her will be into her "sexy-cute body". Interestingly, despite the fact that her character design bares a large amount of skin, it's mostly covered up in her 3D sprites, and other characters don't comment on what they think about it.

** Fittingly for a rock star, Jimiken has a very similar spelling to Jimihen, which is how Creator/JimmyHendrix is known in Japan.

* ClarkKenting: [[spoiler:Early into the game, in one of the first visits to Shibuya Records, you can talk to a businessman called Masao Tanaka that, [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial out of the blue, denies being Jimiken]]. Since "Tanaka" is later confirmed to be part of his real name, there's the implication that Masao Tanaka is Jimiken in disguise.]]

* AmbiguouslyHuman: Drops a few hints he might not be one at the start. [[spoiler:Turns out he is, and any hints to the contrary were just a mysterious act. Except that he ''actually'' gets controlled by a digimon, so this might qualify as [[AccidentalTruth accidental foreshadowing]] on his part.]]

* GenericDoomsdayVillain: It doesn't have many aspirations beyond wanting to destroy and consume everything.

* AmbiguousDisorder: They're definitely...hyperactive for a protagonist. Along with their {{Cloudcuckoolander}} antics and...[[AttentionDeficitOohShiny marginal attention span]], several times they will also space out, often engaging in InnerMonologue and becoming distracted to the point that other characters take notice (most notably during the food tour the team takes). There's also the implication they have little sense of personal space or social awareness, at one point taking a comment Nokia makes regarding her "scent" to ''sniff'' her, much to Nokia's understandable bafflement, and some of their comments imply they feel more comfortable in online chats than in the real world, which, along with the incidents above, can point to Aiba possibly having A.D.H.D. or even Aspergers. [[spoiler: While at least some of their behavior can be explained by their half-digital body breaking down over time,]] they still exhibited these traits even early in the game.

* CessationOfExistence: Aiba faces this if they don't get reunited with their body in time, since their cyber body is essentially an unstable mass of data being held together by sheer force of will. Kyoko outright states that their form ''is'' temporary and will eventually destabilize to the point of collapsing and dispersing completely, leaving only their comatose body which would eventually pass away from complications anyways. [[spoiler: This ends up happenning in the end, but thankfully the PowerOfFriendship allows Alphamon to build a copy of Aiba's data and re-install it into their physical body.]]

* ContemplateOurNavels: Around mid-to-late game, several characters will notice that the player tends to "space out" a lot. It's usually PlayedForLaughs, but dialogue from Pete and Kyoko imply that [[spoiler: the spacing out is a sign that their cyber body is deteriorating and "glitching" out.]]

* GlassCannon: Their [[LiminalBeing half-cyber body]] is certainly kitted out with powers that offers the best of both worlds, but Kyoko and several others point out that the protagonist is effectively a tightly packed cluster of data that is slowly but surely destabilizing over time; while not exactly as fragile as wet paper, physical exertion is definitely not recommended, especially since stressful acts such as [[spoiler: Connect Jumping into [[EldritchAbomination Eaters]]]] takes a severe toll on the body. [[spoiler: Near the end of the game, the protagonist gets into a fistfight with Arata to [[GetAHoldOfYourselfMan snap him out of it]] after pulling him out of an Eater, and the damage from the Connect Jump and the relatively light brawling was enough to cause them to glitch for an instant and interrupt the fight.]]

* HumanoidAbomination: Aiba's "original" half-cyber body form is essentially a vaguely humanoid mass of translucent blue data, and is apparently so disturbing it almost gets them ''arrested'' as soon as they manifest in the real world, but thankfully Kyoko helps them modify their form so that they look normal enough to walk around in public without attracting undue attention. [[spoiler: Late in the game, when their body is beginning to break down, they will periodically flash between their disguised form and the "data" form.]]

** Arguably, the biggest moment comes on the heels of the [[spoiler: revelation about what happened in the EDEN Beta test. They break down ''[[HeroicBSOD completely]]'' and allow Crusadermon to assimilate them into the simulation, all while repeating a MadnessMantra about how they wished they all could have stayed in the beta test.]]
** They also don't hold back on [[spoiler: Suedou when they encounter him again after seeing what he'd done to the now Eater-fused and insane Arata.]] While we don't actually ''see'' what they say, their expression and [[spoiler: Suedou's]] reaction makes it clear that their words for [[spoiler: him]] are anything ''but'' polite.

* SecretlyDying: ZigZagged. Kyoko and several others aware of their state know that it is only temporary and that eventually Aiba ''will'' collapse and disperse completely if they don't get back to their body. [[spoiler: The "secret" part comes into play when it is obvious Aiba is not telling anyone just ''how'' bad their deterioration is getting; the reactions of their friends during the final fight when they almost disperse right in front of them while trying to Connect Jump makes it clear that none of them knew that Aiba was teetering on the brink of nonexistence itself.]]
* StepfordSmiler: It is implied a that they occasionally use their upbeat and AllLovingHero attitude to hide how depressed they actually are over their admittedly serious condition; at one point, they have a conversation with Arata, and discover that, as far as the medical professionals can tell, EDEN Syndrome is permanent and there may not actually be a way to return to their body before they disperse. Their response is to "[[IllPretendIDidntHearThat pretend [they] didn't hear that]]" and continue on. They still have moments where their facade slips, most notably when [[spoiler: they fall into Crusadermon's Beta EDEN trap and learn the circumstances that brought the Eaters to the Digital World.]]

* BigDamnHeroes: Repeatedly. Most notably when she drives up and saves the player from being arrested when they materialize in the real world in their digital form. Then later [[spoiler: when she drives straight into digital shift to help the player fight Crusadermon as Alphamon.]]

* CoolCar: Doubly so for being a V8 sports car in a country where compact vehicles are almost omnipresent, and is [[spoiler: Apparently made out of Alphamon's armor.]] Perceptive players may notice that [[spoiler:it's an Alphamon-colored '''Alfa''' Romeo '''Mon'''treal.]]

* {{Expy}}: Her physical appearance, demeanor, and motivation [[spoiler: to find out what happened to her father]] seem to be heavily influenced by [[Franchise/{{Danganronpa}} Kyoko Kirigiri.]]

* JustJokingJustification: Near the end of the game, [[spoiler: after reviving Aiba, she (as Alphamon) offers Aiba the choice between returning to the human world, or [[IChooseToStay becoming a Digimon and staying in the Digital World]] as their partner. They follow up with saying that they just wanted to [[{{Troll}} mess with Aiba]] one last time, but the sincere tone in Alphamon's voice while they make the offer gives off implications that it ''was'' serious, but Alphamon changed their mind after seeing how conflicted it was making poor Aiba.]]

* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: It is subtle, but one of the few times you ever see her genuinely taken aback by something is when [[spoiler: Aiba offhandedly mentions the Digital World, at which point she all but ''demands'' to know where Aiba heard that term, this coming from someone who typically has the answers to a question before you even know what the question ''is.'' Given that she is Alphamon, one of the Digimon Royal Knights, and humans are ''not'' supposed to be aware of the Digital World at this point, her reaction makes sense.]]

* AchievementsInIgnorance: Despite having almost no knowledge of hacking or of Digimon, she manages to [[spoiler: form a hacker group of her own, evolve her partners to Mega level, and then evolve them past Mega, just through hoping something good will happen if she tries hard enough.]]

* OlympusMons: Her partner Digimon for most of the story is [[spoiler: Omnimon, a Royal Knight and who is often depicted as one of the most powerful Digimon in the entire franchise.]]
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: She is almost constantly plucky, positive, and ''loud.'' So it says a lot when [[spoiler: she collapses in the middle of the street and quietly breaks down when Aiba's over-stressed cyber body finally disperses during the transit back to the physical world.]]
* PleaseWakeUp: [[spoiler: To the comatose protagonist at the end, begging them to wake up and help them locate Kyoko.]]
* PluckyGirl: Boy is she ever; her relentless positivity ends up being a draw factor for recruiting members into The Rebels, despite the fact that she doesn't have much hacker experience. Even during the latter half of the game, when faced with [[spoiler:Arata succumbing to Eater and the Royal Knights looming even further]], she briefly becomes a little dejected, but never fully succumbs to HeroicBSOD level. [[spoiler: Aiba finally succumbing to data deterioration and evaporating in front of her ''just as they were about to come back home'' to push her into a BSOD, causing her to break down in the street when they return. She manages to recover within a few weeks, but it is obvious during her [[ConverseWithTheUnconscious conversation with the protagonist's physical but still comatose body]] that it still hurts and she just wants her friend back.]]

* AmbiguouslyBi: As mentioned under EvenTheGuysWantHim Arata tries pretty hard to impress Nokia and Aiba by making himself appear more "mysterious and cool", regardless of the latter's gender. [[spoiler: Even if both of them are girls the way it's regaining his memories of Yuugo, who is said to have been his "closest friend" when they were kids, that leads to his breakdown can come across as questionable.]]
* AxCrazy: Shows some signs of this in [[spoiler: Odaiba before the second Examon battle. He even has [[RedEyesTakeWarning red eyes]] of madness!]]

* {{Expy}}: Several players draw comparisons for Arata to [[Franchise/{{Naruto}} Sasuke Uchiha]]. Especially later in the game when he [[spoiler: goes with a mysterious MadScientist who promises him power in order to accomplish his goals and said "power" ends up giving him a SuperPoweredEvilside and he ends up fighting his friends.]]

* FalseFlagOperation: Uses the detective agency as a patsy and a fake name so she can investigate the account raiders attacking EDEN without being identified by her ties to the Kamishiro Corporation [[spoiler: or her secret identity as the head of Zaxon]].

* TakeAThirdOption: Upon visiting Fei and Keisuke at the Central Hospital, her and Fei's relationship is called into question by Keisuke. When asked by the two to clarify what she views the relationship as, [[spoiler: she opts to neither confirm it as platonic or romantic, instead simply saying how Fei is "precious" to her and that their relationship is something that cannot be put into words.]]

A girl who hails from ''VideoGame/DigimonWorldReDigitize Decode'' and its corresponding AlternateUniverse. Mirei sends the protagonist to meet her in order to recruit her Veevee as the Royal Knight [=UlforceVeedramon=]. An incredibly aggressive and tomboyish girl, she's described as annoying, oh so very annoying...and cute.

* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Pretty much the basis of her entire character in-game, to the point where absolutely no one can keep up with her randomness. [[spoiler: Not even a Royal Knight.]]

* PeacefulInDeath: [[spoiler:Heavily implied at the end of "Ghost Cat Building": the final cutscene is of Yoshito and Miko leaving together. But what makes the implication stronger is that, rather than walking on the building, they seem to be walking ''on'' the screen instead- giving the illusion that either Yoshito or Miko, or perhaps both, will die soon- and happily together.]] [[spoiler: Kyoko's [[https://youtu.be/2n845pf0tbI?t=1388 monologue]] at the end of this quest can be taken as a kind of eulogy.]]

* ItsPersonal: [[spoiler: Kyoto's father is his DeadPartner, and he wants to take down Kamishiro to avenge him]]

* ManlyTears: Telling the protagonist about [[spoiler: Kyoko's father's death]] leaves him hiding his tears, though Kyoko noticed when he left.

** Towards [[spoiler: a lost Lopmon looking for their friend Tokomon]] she comes across and brings to the protagonist as a client.

* DisproportionateRetribution: Played for laughs. Every time you meet her she'll threaten to arrest you for some reason or other, like being depressed when [[spoiler: Kyoko goes missing]] later in the game.

* {{Tsundere}}

* MaybeMagicMaybeMundane: Although the other cases turn out to have mundane (or at least mundane by in-universe logic) explanations, the case of Shibuya Hirasaka most notably does ''not'', and it's left ambiguous whether the girl involved is an actual dead, vengeful spirit. Kyoko drops it under the justification that her jurisdiction lies in cyber crimes, and not in the occult.
** The Shibuya Hirasaka case is expanded on in ''Hacker's Memory'', as well as the group as a whole. [[spoiler: Lily is in fact an exorcist, and whenever she's trying to derail the group's investigations it's because they're legitimately dangerous. The Shibuya Hirasaka case ended with the group accidentally linking the worlds of the living and the dead, and after the brief connection to the Digital World the girl's vengeful spirit fused with a [[{{Cthulhumanoid}} Dragomon]], not entirely unlike the cat that became Pete, and sought to use its power to take advantage of the linked worlds to [[ZombieApocalypse flood Shibuya with undead]]. After stopping this and exorcising the spirit, the group pushes Lily into training them all to be exorcists in order to help lighten her work load, and to be able to defend themselves if their meddling ever steps into the legitimately supernatural once more.]]

** ''Hacker's Memory'' shows what would happen without [[spoiler: Yuugo acting as a limiter. Erika ends up creating her own Eater Bits to serve her, but once her illness incapacitates her they immediately turn on her, use her connection to EDEN, and within hours EDEN is replaced entirely by "Eater EDEN".]]

* HeelRealization: [[spoiler: That being said, when Ami/Takemi risks their ''very existence'' to enter the Mother Eater and try to rescue him because [[AllLovingHero they didn't want anyone, Suedou included, to disappear]], even after having just stopped his master plan, he comes to realize his folly of trying to recreate a world without sadness (at least, in his own...weird way) and decides it is better to let the universe unfold on its own, and writes himself out of history.]]

* PetTheDog: [[spoiler: He wiped the memories of the survivors of the EDEN beta in order to spare their sanity of seeing an Eater attack.]]

* WellIntentionedExtremist: [[spoiler: Even though he acts as the BigBad of the game, the worst thing he tries to do is evolve the human race to the point where there's no sadness, and he's genuinely baffled that the heroes would prefer the current, flawed world to the one he's proposing.]]

* FauxAffablyEvil: He always acts like he's in a good mood, laughing all the while no matter what he's doing. This attitude usually drops when he loses of course. [[spoiler: However, he undergoes some CharacterDevelopment after his MassHypnosis plans are thwarted; his attitude and irreverence towards the player doesn't change, but he becomes much more legitimate, and even invites Reiko Tawa to go on tour with him.]]

* PetTheDog: [[spoiler: Don't get him wrong, he's still a jerk to '''you''', but after his scheme is thwarted he apparently softens up a bit to the point that he even ''invites'' Reiko to tour with him rather than kidnapping her as the player thought, and it is implied he is much nicer to her and even shared with her his real name: "Tanaka".]]

* ArmorPiercingSlap: Delivers an ''incredible'' one to [[spoiler: Rie/Crusadermon on the Metropolitan Building rooftop, for demeaning human pain and suffering. ]]

* FusionDance: Happens to her twice. [[spoiler: The first is when her Eater Bits turn on her, creating Eater Legion. During the fight against Eater Legion the final uncorroded portion of Erika's memory informs the members of Hudie that at that point her body has been completely lost and its death means her death. After being reminded of everything she wished to do with her life that fragment fuses with Wormmon to become Hudiemon, [[ButterflyOfDeathAndRebirth who proceeds to assist Keisuke in killing her former self, declaring that she's the "new Erika"]].]]

* HiveQueen: Toward the end of the game [[spoiler: she manages to hack into an Eater and use the information to create her own small army of Eater Bits that prove necessary to defeat Arcadiamon.]]

* RetGone: [[spoiler: As history is being rewritten Hudiemon is left with the choice of returning to being Erika who will still suffer the accident that killed her parents and gave her her illness, or to remain as Hudiemon while the new world has no Erika which would prevent the accident from occurring, sparing Ryuji the loss of his family. She chooses to remain Hudiemon, and is only remembered by Keisuke in the new world.]]

* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: It was at least in part her accident and family's desperation to turn to a completely insane and experimental treatment that [[spoiler: drove Suedou toward his plan to push humanity beyond the concept of sadness.]]

* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Ryuji. Together, [[spoiler: they formed Hudie after the Judes disbanded, cementing his place as Ryuji's right hand man and close family friend. It's also a major reason why Chitose saves Ryuji from an Eater attack, getting afflicted with EDEN syndrome in his stead.]]

* ItWasAGift: The reason he ends up with a Shakkoumon? [[spoiler: The Angemon that Hudie's internet cafe clerk gifted him, DNA Digivolved with Chitose's own Ankylomon. Also serves as an example of GameplayAndStoryIntegration.]]

* PutOnABus: [[spoiler: He's out of commission for several chapters due to being attacked by an Eater. Luckily, he gets better and comes back for the final chapters of the story.]]

* AmbiguouslyHuman: Drops a few hints he might not be one at the start. [[spoiler: Turns out he is, and any hints to the contrary were just a mysterious act. Except that he ''actually'' gets controlled by a digimon, so this might qualify as [[AccidentalTruth accidental foreshadowing]] on his part.]]
* BigBadFriend: His real identity is [[spoiler: Yu Nogi, with his HeroWorship pushed straight into {{Yandere}} territory by a Matadormon hiding in his mask.]]
* CoolMask: Wears a white mask at all times. [[spoiler: It's also an EvilMask, being the hiding place of a Matadormon who's gradually driving him insane.]]
* DramaticUnmask: [[spoiler: He sets one up to screw with you. In fact, he [[EvilCounterpart gets]] [[BigBadFriend a few]] [[TheFaceless of these]].]]

* InexplicablyAwesome: The powers he starts showing later on - controlling his Digimon remotely, [[spoiler: puppeteering other accounts, creating a cage around you that blocks logouts]]. Erika notes that it's very odd for someone with such powers to show up out of nowhere so suddenly.

* RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: Wears predominantly red and black clothes, in contrast to Keisuke's cool blue. As for the "Evil" part,[[spoiler: his actions increasingly become antagonistic to the player as the game goes on. Right down to ultimately being the culprit behind stealing Keisuke's account, siccing a [=SkullSatamon=] on a defenseless Keisuke, trapping him on EDEN in a manner similar to EDEN Syndrome and ultimately being the reason Keisuke has to fight an empowered Matardormon. And of course, this doesn't even count the other crimes he's done throughout EDEN. ]]
* SanitySlippage: After the entirety of Tokyo is swallowed by a Digital Shift and hackers gain the power to alter the "real" world, he turns maniacal, starts rampaging with his Digimon, and encourages Keisuke to do the same. [[spoiler: Of course before that, Matadormon was already twisting him. And by the end, Matadormon itself has become insane from the feedback loop.]]
* TheManBehindTheMan: Partway through the plot, he claims to be the real leader of the Demons, with Jimmy [=KEN=] as a front man. [[spoiler: If this wasn't true originally, he does take over after Jimmy [=KEN=]'s final defeat.]]

* {{Yandere}}: He desires little more than to be Keisuke's best friend and partner. And he will do anything to accomplish that goal. [[spoiler: He was the one to steal Keisuke's account and proceeds to send him on a wild goose chase consisting of other accounts he's hacked and controls remotely in order to make Keisuke rely on him, failing to consider that "K" is quickly proven to be untrustworthy while Yu is presented as timid and completely averse to interacting with hackers, which only serves to drive Keisuke to Hudie. When the world undergoes a Digital Shift he snaps completely, deciding he'll just ''become'' Keisuke as he can just bring the account avatar onto himself in the real world.]]

* KnightOfCerebus: When it finally gets involved, things go downhill ''very quickly''. [[spoiler: Ryuji becomes its thrall, dozens of Digimon and hackers fall prey to its hunger, Hudie's workplace is demolished, and Erika is eventually assimilated by the Eater Bits she created in order to fight it]].
* SealedEvilInACan: [[spoiler: The core of Under Zero that was protected by the Knightmon that beat down Jude was this thing's prison. Poor Ryuji ends up freeing it during his HeroicBSOD]].

* HeelFaceDoorSlam: [[spoiler: A minor one, towards Arata after the latter is rescued from Eater Adam. He still supports Aiba, but he makes it clear he and Arata are nowhere near on friendly terms.]]

* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Noted by Omnimon, he swore to never kill a human but went after [[spoiler: Arata, worried about what he would become, though it was rather heavily implied that Gallantmon simply didn't see Arata as human any more after he'd merged with an Eater.]]
