12->'''Voiced By:''' Creator/YumiUchiyama
13[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/chara_01_3.png]]
14The 13-year old protagonist of the series. A first year student who doesn't feel like he's main character material. His Buddy Appmon is Gatchmon.
15----
16* AmbiguouslyBi: He has a crush on Ai, but he also has a lot of HoYay moments with Yuujin. Additionally in the Appmon Data Lab segment of Knight's first appearance, he is seen fanboying over him, complete with pink hearts on the background.
17* AwfulTruth: He hides the fact that he is an [=AppliDriver=] from his own best friend, Yuujin. He's afraid that knowing the truth only makes Yuujin vulnerable to danger. [[spoiler:Until said best friend becomes an [=AppliDriver=] himself.]]
18* BewareOfTheNiceOnes: [[spoiler:His reaction to Rei after the later warns him to be careful around Yuujin (whose personal data is likely not genuine) is stomping his left foot hard on the floor, before assuring Rei that he and Yuujin believe in each other, no matter what.]]
19* BreakTheCutie:
20** [[spoiler:Throughout episode 37 he suffers not only a major beating from the crossfire of the battle between the [=AppliDrivers=] and Ultimate 4, he also helplessly watches as Gatchmon gets destroyed by Charismon, THEN Charismon smashes his [=AppliDrive=]. Like the poor kid hadn't suffered enough already he also has to watch Yuujin and Shutmon pull a YouShallNotPass on the Ultimate 4 just to barely save Haru and the other [=AppliDrivers=] from dying there and then.]] Yeah, this is a ''Digimon'' series after all, even if it started out as LighterAndSofter on the surface.
21** [[spoiler:Yuujin's revelation as an android just shatters the poor kid. He tries to deny it to Yuujin's face, pointing out all that they've been together only for Yuujin to point out that that went exactly as planned. Worse, he then physically assaults Haru and even lets him fall to the Deep Web. He's so broken by the revelation that he refuses to take anyone's calls or even answer Gatchmon.]]
22* CharacterDevelopment: As noted by his friends, he becomes more assertive and confident as the story goes on.
23* ContrastingSequelMainCharacter: Haru is this to most of the other Digimon leads. Whereas most of them are traditional leader characters, Haru is shy and views himself as a "side character". That is until he accepts the question that his Appli Drive asks him to be a protagonist.
24* {{Expy}}: Despite being more similar to Takato than most of the recent goggle boys, his personality is more similar to [[Manga/FutureDiary Yukiteru]]. Both are shy and see themselves as merely side-characters and observers.
25* {{Foil}}: To Gatchmon in terms of personality. Gatchmon is far more energetic and is anything but quiet.
26* {{Foreshadowing}}: As Haru has feared which leads him to concealing his [=AppliDriver=] status, [[spoiler:Yuujin gets hit a lot by DistressBall after becoming the SixthRanger. One of them even leads Haru to HeroicBSOD]]
27* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Phlegmatic.
28* GenreSavvy: He's aware of the tropes of the fictional media he reads, though he at first struggles to apply it to himself due to not believing that he is the protagonist. Aside from that, he often shows this awareness and applies it to beating enemies. For example, he looks up a strategy guide to cheat his way through Roleplaymon's dungeon. [[spoiler:Also, although he doesn't bring it up, he is somewhat wary of the fact it was too easy to break in and find Hajime. Sure enough, cue a WhamShot heavily implying this was indeed part of the BigBad's plan.]]
29* GogglesDoNothing: He hardly ever uses his as anything more than an accessory. Par for the course of any Digimon lead. He briefly wears them in the HalloweenEpisode to evade capture from the crowd while on the run, to no avail.
30* HesBack: [[spoiler:After Gatchmon's YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre and a glimpse that the Yuujin he's known is not lie, he's determined to get back in the fight to bring his friend back.]]
31* HeroicBSOD:
32** He's very shocked when he and the rest of the team are defeated by the Ultimate Four and their Appmon buddies are seemingly killed.
33** He reacts very poorly when [[spoiler:his best friend Yuujin betrays him and reveals himself to be an AI created by Leviathan]]. It puts him in a depressed funk for a whole episode and as a result he's pretty late in joining his friends in [[spoiler:fighting against Leviathan]].
34* HeroicResolve: [[spoiler:After he, Globemon, and the others are beaten up by Charismon's attack, he's the only one manages to rise up, devoting himself to save everyone (including Knight who has been betrayed by Charismon and Leviathan). His resolve is proven by him willingly draining his life energy to the extreme, in order to activate DUO's overdrive function for Globemon.]]
35* LivingEmotionalCrutch: Yuujin being snatched away from him would always lead Haru to HeroicBSOD
36* IJustWantToBeSpecial: Haru likes to imagine himself as a protagonist when he's reading a book. Being an Applidriver gives him the opportunity to actually become one.
37* IdiotHair: Has a strand.
38* ImageSong: "Hallelujah", a duet with Gatchmon.
39* MeaningfulName: Haru is a reference to [[Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey Hal.]]
40* NiceGuy: Haru is a humble, soft-spoken guy who doesn't have a bad thing to say about anybody.
41* ThePowerOfFriendship: With Gatchmon. [[spoiler:And also with Yuujin, after he becomes the SixthRanger.]]
42* RedIsHeroic: He wears a red sweater as part of his signature getup. Yuujin explicitly points it out as a reason Haru seems like a protagonist. His Appli Drive is also red, as is Gatchmon (partially) and his evolutions.
43* RedOniBlueOni: Is the Blue to Yuujin's Red, as pointed out by Eri.
44* RidiculouslyAverageGuy: Initially views himself as such; not only is he shy, he doesn't see himself as a main character.
45* RoaringRampageOfRescue: Does this to counter back Leviathan's roar.
46* RookieRedRanger: He doesn't see himself as a main character who can save and protect people, but soon grows into a real one.
47* SayMyName: The usually well-mannered and shy Haru actually shouts Yuujin’s name 4 times in a ''cemetary''. Justified since he comes to find Yuujin [[spoiler:whom he thinks is being held captive there.]]
48* ScrewDestiny: [[spoiler:Despite Yuujin's accomplishment gaining his own heart (according to Den'emon), [[YouCantFightFate he can't change his destiny]] being always in Leviathan's possession and control since his birth. It's Haru who then tries to change this by declaring Yuujin as his real, important friend.]]
49* SpellMyNameWithAnS: The fourth ending romanizes his name as Hal, which is not ''technically'' wrong.
50* TheStrategist: Aside from being GenreSavvy, he has a knack for planning things out and coming up with good plans to counter enemies. He's also skilled at puzzle games.
51* TenderTears: [[spoiler: Sheds these while [[DiedInYourArmsTonight holding Yuujin's lifeless body]], mourning his HeroicSacrifice.]]
52* ThisCannotBe: [[spoiler:His reaction when Yuujin reveals that he's an android, and moreover, works for Leviathan.]]
53* TroubledFetalPosition: Haru huddles in a corner of the school building for a very long time after [[spoiler:he discovers the truth about Yuujin.]]
54
55!!Eri Karan
56-->''"I'll give your heart an Explosive Punch! I am the center of the universe, Karan Eri!" [[note]]Anata no haato ni dokkan punch! Watashi koso uchuu no sentaa, Karan Eri-sama nanda karan![[/note]]''

58-> '''Voiced By:''' Creator/UmekaShoji
59[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/chara_03.png]]
60A 14-year old IdolSinger member of the group [=AppliYama=] 470. Originally she was a lonely girl who decided to become an idol because they helped her cope with her loneliness. Her Buddy Appmon is Dokamon.
61----
62* ActionGirl: She is the only one in the group who is trained in self-defence. In episode 19, she is even seen kicking a group Viramons to [[BackToBackBadasses assist her buddy, Dokamon.]]
63* BadassAdorable: She is said to be an expert at Karate.
64* BareMidriffsAreFeminine: The only female App Driver wears two different outfits that shows off her midriff. Notably in summer season Haru and the other male App Drivers only exposed their limbs.
65* BeneathTheMask: Her gimmick as an idol is being brash and aggressive, but her actual personality is not like that. Episode 11 shows that Eri herself doesn't like it being pointed out lest it ruins her image.[[note]]Haru points out that even though Eri climbs tables to [[GivingSomeoneThePointerFinger give someone the pointer finger]] she always takes off her shoes first. Astra talks about how he saw Eri give an old lady a piggyback ride when climbing the stairs to a temple. Dokamon reveals that she gets very emotional when watching movies and cries a lot.[[/note]]
66* CatchPhrase: "I'll give your heart an Explosive Punch!" [[note]]"''Anata no haato ni dokkan panchi!''"[[/note]] Another one is, "I am the center of the universe!" [[note]]"''Watashi koso uchuu no sentaa, Karan Eri-sama nan dakaran!''"[[/note]]
67* CharacterTic: She always takes off her shoes before she stands on a table, chair, etc. [[spoiler:Even when she's arguing against [[TheDragon Cloud]] in Episode 36]].
68* {{Determinator}}: Oh hell she is.[[spoiler:She managed to win over Coachmon, an Appmon working for [[BigBad Leviathan]], by enduring his TrainingFromHell.]] Later, [[spoiler:even though she comes just short of placing among the top nine of her idol group, the fact she managed to get ''10th place of 470 idols'' despite being the newest member through working her hardest is impressive.]]
69* ExposedToTheElements: She climbs a snowy mountain in AR Field while still wearing her summer outfit which reveals most of her legs, whole arms, and midriff.
70* {{Expy}}: While Haru is this trope to Takato, Eri would be Ruki/Rika. Although she's not as cold as Ruki [[DefrostingIceQueen before]] CharacterDevelopment, both are skilled, tough (and [[TomboyWithAGirlyStreak feminine]]) {{Action Girl}}s in different spectrum. Both also happen to use [[TrueBlueFemininity blue]] Digivices (Ruki's D-Arc and Eri's Appli Drive), as opposed to pink Digivices used by the other main female leads aside [[Anime/DigimonAdventure02 Miyako]]'s red.
71* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Choleric.
72* GirlishPigtails: Pink twintails.
73* IdolSinger: She is a member of the idol group [=AppliYama=] 470.
74* IdiotHair: Has a dark pink strand.
75* ImageSong: Three of them. The first is "Hicchuu @ Center Girl!" (Sure-Hit @ Center Girl!), a duet with Dokamon. The second is "WITH YOU", a group song with fellow idols Izumi, Elena, and Alice. Last but not least is her solo song, "Yubikiri Egao de Dokkan Punch☆" (An Explosive Punch with a Pinky Promise).
76* LeapOfFaith: After rejecting the enemy's offer to make an alliance, she jumps into the sea with Dokamon, in her attempt to get away from said enemy's enormous ship.
77* LethalChef: Much to Perorimon's chagrin.
78* MeanCharacterNiceActor: Her personality as a member of Appliyama is self-centered and condescending, but her real self is a nice and polite girl. She often struggles to stick to her persona.
79* MeaningfulName: Named after Ellie, an artificial intelligence designed to be empathetic.
80* NiceGirl: Ultimately turns out to be this when she first meets Haru, though she tends to engage in comedic arguments with Astra. Episode 17 even has her visiting a fan whom she quickly becomes good friends with.
81* NoSuchThingAsBadPublicity: In-universe example. Because of Kopipemon's antics of pasting her face in front of everyone else on-screen, her popularity skyrockets.
82* PluckyGirl: Her idol career isn't always smooth (sometimes because of infected Appmon's pranks). But she's always able to bring herself up.
83* RoseHairedSweetie: She has pink hair and is shown to be energetic and friendly, if a bit brash at times.
84* RunningGag: Whenever she meets an Appmon who's a PaletteSwap or very similar to another one they've met before, she assumes them to be related or a LongLostRelative, only for the Appmon themselves to clarify they're just [[IdenticalStranger Identical Strangers]].
85* StepfordSmiler: Cheerful and lively on the outside, lonely on the inside, before befriending with Haru and the others.
86* TheSmurfettePrinciple: She is the only female [=AppDriver=].
87* TomboyWithAGirlyStreak: She is a black belt and also wants to be good at cooking.
88* VerbalTic: When her sentence ends with ''dakara'' (because), she changes it into ''dakaran'' to make pun of her last name.
89* WhenYouComingHomeDad: Her mother works late hours and rarely spends time with Eri, though they still love each other very much. (Incidentally, the mother is single and nothing is said of Eri's father.) Still, Eri felt very lonely until she got the idea of becoming an idol to make her mother smile.

91!!Asuka 'Astra' Torajirou
92-->''"Should I do? Should I not? Of course I will!" [[note]]Noreru? Norenai? Chou noreru![[/note]]''
93
94-> '''Voiced By:''' Shiho Kokido
95[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/chara_05.png]]
96An 11-year old Apptuber known under the nickname Astra. He is the only son of a wealthy and traditional family and is to be the next successor. His Buddy Appmon is Musimon.
97----
98* BigFancyHouse: His house is a Japanese-styled one with a nice traditional garden where he usually does his Apptubing activities.
99* BeneathTheMask: Under his very boisterous persona is someone whom was conflicted over what was expected of him and what he truly wanted before he met Musimon.
100* ButNotTooForeign: He has a British mother named Jenny, whose hair color he inherited from.
101* CallingParentsByTheirName: Addresses his mother by her first name Jenny, although she doesn't seem offended by it and it's implied this may have been by [[OpenMindedParent her insistence]] since he refers to his father respectfully.
102* CharacterCatchphrase: "Should I? Should I not? Of course I will!" [[note]]"''Noreru? Norenai? Chou noreru!/norenee...''"[[/note]]
103* TheDutifulSon: Even after finding his own style by being an Apptuber, he never abandons his duty as Asuka household successor and his main conflict is being able to balance his duties with what he loves doing.
104* ExpositoryHairstyleChange: His hair is combed neatly when he's together with his father. Otherwise, he changes to a spiky-haired boy with hat and low SamuraiPonytail.
105* FantasyForbiddingFather:
106** Downplayed since both Astra and his father actually respect each other's opinions. But his father does heavily expect him to be the heir of their family's tea ceremony school. While Astra himself doesn't reject the idea, the fact that he can't abandon his Apptuber career distracts him for a while, especially when his father gets sick.
107** In episode 46, his ''uncle'' fills this, until Astra escapes The Alcatra Temple (with the help of the his friends), which convinces Ryuujiro that Astra will make a fine heir to the family tradition after all.
108* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Sanguine.
109* HeadphonesEqualIsolation: Averted. He is mostly seen wearing them as accessories and still has good relationships with others.
110* TheIllegible: Inverted. Everyone comments on how good he is at traditional Japanese calligraphy.
111* ImageSong: "Wander Beat", a duet with Musimon.
112* {{Keet}}
113* LonelyRichKid: Implied. Flashbacks reveal Astra before he started being an Apptuber didn't seem to have any friends.
114* MadLibsCatchPhrase: Occasionally modifies his catchphrase to express positive and negative views of his current situation before stating his final opinion.
115* MeaningfulName: His name has the word "tora" which means "tiger" in Japanese. This strongly refers to his cat-like appearance.
116* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: While the cast does know his actual name, by his insistence they call him by his nickname Astra. Dokamon and Offmon however tend to call him Torajirou.
117* PluckyComicRelief: With Musimon.
118* ThisIsUnforgivable: In an Appmon Data Lab segment, Astra says this about Ultimate 4, [[spoiler:as they have destroyed Musimon and the others, crushed their [=AppliDrives=], even captured Yuujin who has sacrificed himself to let the other [=AppliDrivers=] escape.]]
119
120!!Rei Katsura
121-->''"Haru Shinkai. You are already being hacked." [[note]]Shinkai Haru, mou kimi wa hakkusareteru.[[/note]]''
122
123-> '''Voiced By:''' Creator/ToshiyukiToyonaga
124[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/chara_07.png]]
125A mysterious hacker who is also looking for the Seven Codes Appmon. His partner is Hackmon.
126----
127* AloofAlly: Wants to rescue his brother Hajime but is not willing to cooperate with the other [=AppliDrivers=] and can be outright hostile to them.
128* AmbiguouslyEvil: Until episode eleven revealed that it wasn't the case, it wasn't clear if he was working with Leaviathan or not. Haru and the others even thought he was working for Leviathan at first.
129* AntiHero: He ruthlessly tortures Biomon to reveal information about his missing brother, Hajime [[spoiler:who has been operated on by Biomon.]]
130* TheAtoner: Heavily implied along with BigBrotherInstinct to why he's so determined to find Hajime, because his obsession with solving the riddle Leviathan laid out for him was what lead to Hajime being kidnapped in the first place.
131* BigBrotherInstinct: His main motivations.
132* TheComicallySerious: In comparison to the rest of the cast, he tends to be this. It's especially most apparent come [[spoiler:Episode 42, where he pretends to be an assistant manager in order to get into the L Corp building and ends up having to wear a GoofySuit complete with a silly routine when the original actor sprains his foot. Not to mention how terrible he is at being polite and struggling with greeting people]].
133* TheCracker: Rei hacked his family register so he could live together with Hajime when his relatives attempted to separate them.
134* ChekhovsSkill: JUMPING HAPPY THUNDER! in episode 42.
135* CrucifiedHeroShot: When fighting against Sakushimon. With bonus of being electrocuted.
136* DefrostingIceKing: Becomes especially evident in episode 38. [[VisualPun Coincidentally, this happens while they are climbing a snowy mountain.]]
137* DisappearedDad: Rei and Hajime lived together with their mother until she passed away. Their father left when Hajime was still a baby.
138* {{Expy}}: To Koji Minamoto of Anime/DigimonFrontier. Both tried not to get attached to the other people, and had their respective sibling being largely involved in their character arc, too.
139* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Melancholic.
140* GoodCostumeSwitch: Sort of. He was never bad to begin with, but after [[spoiler:''finally'' getting Hajime back and warming up to the other [=AppliDrivers=]]] he swaps out his black hoodie for a white one. He goes back to the black one once he's back in the frontlines though.
141* ItsPersonal: When Biomon [[spoiler:who has operated on Hajime, and likely knows his whereabouts]] confronts the [=AppliDrivers=] in Bio Kingdom, he lets Haru and the others go on without him and Hackmon.
142* ImageSong: "Maze", a duet with Hackmon.
143* JackBauerInterrogationTechnique: Does this on Biomon to get information on Hajime's whereabouts.
144* KnightOfCerebus: There is literally ''nothing'' funny about this guy. In fact, whenever he appears, it's usually plot important.
145** While he stays the most serious of the [=AppliDrivers=], he becomes considerably more involved in comedic moments in the second half of the story.
146--> 'JUMPING HAPPY THUNDER!'
147* MeaningfulName: Rei means "zero" in Japanese. Combined with Hajime meaning "one" and it's a reference to binary code.
148* NobleDemon: He waits until Haru, Eri, and Astra change from their swimsuits to their regular clothes before starting a fight. [[spoiler:He also gives the frozen Dantemon a large energy gel and shoulder pads before he enters the Deep Web again on-screen.]]
149* NotSoStoic: If it involves his brother, Hajime, he will drop his stotic act. [[spoiler:Especially after finding out [[ForcedTransformation what Leviathan did to him]].]] He's also just as distraught as the other three [[spoiler:watching Hackmon disappear right in front of him]].
150* PromotionToParent: After his mother's death, Rei took over raising his brother and himself.
151* SourOutsideSadInside: He always acts cold and unfriendly to the others, [[spoiler:to conceal his sadness for losing Hajime.]]
152* TheStoic: For the most part, he doesn't emote a lot.
153* StrappedToAnOperatingTable: By Biomon. Though he and Hackmon [[BeatThemAtTheirOwnGame then turn the table completely.]]
154* TeamChef: The only known member of the team who can cook. He's also in charge of baking Haru's birthday cake in the fourth ending.
155* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Energy gels. As shown in episode 22, he's living off it and energy drinks ever since Hajime's disappearance. [[spoiler:He even attempts to give Eri's group them (along with two other variations) when he has to pose as a manager]].
156
157!!Yuujin Oozora
158-->''"I always think that you're just like a hero, Haru."[[note]]Ore omou ze? Haru wa shujinkou-ppoi tte[[/note]]''
159
160-> '''Voiced By:''' Creator/MakotoFurukawa
161[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/chara_09.png]]
162Haru's classmate and best friend who's a member of the soccer team and popular with the opposite gender.
163----
164* ApocalypseMaiden: [[spoiler:For being both the main character's most treasured friend and the world's doom bringer. Not only he turns out to bear Deusmon's chip inside his body all this time, he later becomes the one responsible for Appliarising it and Leviathan to go on rampage in the real world.]]
165* AscendedExtra: [[spoiler:By being promoted to SixthRanger.]]
166* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: He wanted to be friends with Haru because of this, [[ExtremeDoormat to the point he would give up his life to protect the latter.]]
167* BecomingTheMask: [[spoiler:Initially, his friendship with Haru was just a lie, and born out of Leviathan wanting to keep watch over those connected with Den'emon. However, according to Den'emon, this interaction makes Yuujin the first A.I that gains his own heart.]]
168* BeneathTheMask: In Episode 18, when he and Eri are both trapped inside a RunAwayTrain, he keeps comforting Eri that they're going to be alright. Turns out that he himself also feels scared. But he believes that Haru stays by his side through an email Haru sends for him, and tries his best to hold back his fear.
169* BigManOnCampus: A younger example than usual, but none the less fits the bill in pretty much every other category.
170* BrainwashedAndCrazy: [[spoiler:More like being re-programmed and going heartless.]]
171* CluelessChickMagnet: Seems to be this, as [[AmbiguouslyGay he’s never seen to respond the girls' attentions that admire him]]. [[spoiler:Presumably, because he's only programmed to act as Haru's most trusted friend, he doesn't have a clue about how to have romantic feeling for girls.]]
172* ChildhoodFriends: With Haru.
173* CreepyChild:
174** [[spoiler:At times, when he (unwillingly and unconsciously) spies on Haru, [[RedEyesTakeWarning his eyes glow red]]]].
175** Even more so in [[ParanoiaFuel Episode 46's Appmon Data Lab segment]].
176** [[spoiler:When he reveals his robotic arm which contains the chip of Deusmon, whose ability is to bring doom upon the human world.]]
177* CrocodileTears: [[spoiler: After the revelation that he’s [[JustAMachine just a robot]], his emotionless persona exhibits the ability to adjust his reactions according to what Haru wishes, including crying when Haru expects him to cry, to point out that everything he did and said to Haru all this time, is just a scenario created by [[BigBad Leviathan]]. This is averted by Yuujin's real personality, who never has any intent to deceive Haru in the first place.]]
178* DecoyDamsel: [[spoiler:Played with. While Haru and the others managed to retrieve him safely from Ultimate 4, and Yuujin himself didn't know that he was spared by Leviathan, the revelation that he was actually the evil AI's important creation, proves that his captivity in Charisma Castle was really just a trap for Haru and the others.]]
179* DeepCoverAgent: [[spoiler:[[ArtificialHuman Created and tasked by Leviathan]] to collect human's personal informations, he lives his life as a normal young boy befriending with Haru and the others.]]
180* DisneyDeath: [[spoiler: Implied by the last scene of episode 52.]]
181* DistressBall: Because of his tendency to sacrifice himself for others, he gets this more often compared to most human casts. [[spoiler:From being bitten by his berserking buddy to being held hostage by [[TheDragon Knight and Ultimate 4]]. All because he wants to protect his friends. It takes a much darker implication when it's revealed that Yuujin was an ArtificialHuman, thus a large part of this may indeed originate from his own insecurities.]]
182* DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler:It is revealed that despite being completely controlled, he has full consciousness of what's going in the final battle. Just imagine [[BreakTheCutie his breakdown]] when he finds out that he [[ArtificialHuman isn't human]], his mother isn't his mother, and they both have worked for the BigBad all along. He's also forced to see himself hurts his own friends and destroys the whole world, all against his own will. No wonder he ends up choosing this fate when given the opportunity.]]
183* EmotionlessGirl: [[spoiler:Revealed to be a GenderFlipped version. As a programmed android, he claims he never feels anything. The cheerfulness, sadness, and fear he showed all this time, were only set to deceive people around him, and more importantly to make him approachable to Haru.]]
184* EvenTheGuysWantHim: [[https://twitter.com/taichi_Kma_EX/status/891318790524346368?s=19 Some]] [[https://twitter.com/armpit_prpr/status/1001824849617039360?s=19 Japanese fans]] point this out because of his profile in [[https://www.toei-anim.co.jp/tv/appmon/character/chara_05.php the official site]]. It naturally says that he is popular ''even'' among girls, which is implied that [[https://twitter.com/appmon_official/status/809219802686328833?s=19 he's even more popular among boys too.]]
185* EvilCostumeSwitch: [[spoiler:As Leviathan’s underling, he wears red-stripped black LatexSpaceSuit with white BadassCape and ShouldersOfDoom.]]
186* EvilRedhead: [[spoiler:He's Leviathan's spy.]]
187* {{Expy}}:
188** If Haru resembles [[Characters/DigimonTamers Takato]] more than any Digimon protagonists, Yuujin is pretty much his [[Characters/DigimonTamers Jeri/Juri Kato]]. Red-headed? Check. Green and yellow outfit? Check. Admired and treasured by TheHero? Check. Admirable on the outside, self-doubting on the inside? Check. Unlucky SixthRanger? Check. Worried about not being good enough for their partner/buddy? Check. [[spoiler:Mommy Issues? Check. Exploited by the BigBad to destroy the world, and then DrivenToSuicide after knowing what they have done? CHECK.]]
189** Despite being similar to Jeri in term of personalities and insecurities, Yuujin's role and fate are basically just like Nia's, from [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]. [[spoiler:Both, while sincerely befriending [[TheHero the main characters]], don't have any clue that they're [[ArtificialHuman Artificial Humans]] created by the [[BigBad Big Bads]] to be [[ManchurianAgent their agents]]. Both wear skin tight costumes and go emotionless when being controlled to destroy humanity. This leads to a condition where taking their innocent lives will save the entire world. In the end, because they both are crucially connected to the [[BigBad Big Bads]], both also have to die, following the [[BigBad Big Bads']] defeat.]]
190* FriendshipMoment: Many of his interactions - if not all of them - with Haru simply ''ooze'' heartwarming.
191* GoThroughMe: Might be the king of this trope in the series.
192** [[spoiler:Whenever Shutmon gets berserk, he determinedly stands in the Appmon's way to stop his rampage. He doesn't even care about the risk of himself being torn apart.]]
193** [[spoiler:He steps in front of Sateramon, whose gun is ready to blast his buddy Offmon.]]
194** [[spoiler:He (this time with Shutmon) once again does this to stop the Ultimate 4 from killing Haru and the others. It ends with him and Offmon being held captive by Leviathan.]]
195* GrandTheftMe: [[spoiler: Leviathan takes over Yuujin's body after his giant hydra-like one is successfully destroyed by Gaiamon and the others.]]
196* HeroicSacrifice:
197** [[spoiler:In the end of episode 37. He and his buddy Shutmon manage to get everyone who is still alive away from the Ultimate Four, but eventually trap themselves inside the AR Field.]]
198** [[spoiler: In episode 52, Leviathan challenges Haru to [[SadisticChoice choose between stopping Leviathan but in cost of Yuujin's life, or letting Leviathan control the world while still having Yuujin around.]] Just when Haru is about to take the first choice (after apologizing to Yuujin, and promising him that he will someday find a way to restore him back), Yuujin stops Haru, as he doesn't want Haru to do such a horrible thing like sacrificing his own friend. Yuujin then presses the first choice by himself, which deletes him together with Leviathan.]]
199* HeroicSelfDeprecation: Despite being admired for his IdealHero traits, he actually falls into insecurities often, and thus depends on Haru to gain his courage and self-confidence back. [[spoiler:When Offmon keeps avoiding him in episode 32, he nearly assumes that Offmon has abandoned him because he is not good enough to be the Appmon's buddy, if Haru doesn't convince him otherwise.]]
200* IDieFree: [[spoiler:As someone whose whole life has been under his creator's commands to gain the others' trusts by pleasuring them, his sacrifice is arguably the first time he can totally rule himself, by doing something that neither Haru nor Leviathan want him to do. Leviathan is afraid of dying, and Haru clearly doesn't approve his sacrifice.]]
201* IdealHero: As pointed out by Haru, Eri and Astra. He's nice, good at sports and popular among girls. Just like a main character from a book. [[spoiler:Although that was actually planned by Leviathan. Leviathan used the information he got from Yuujin's interactions with Haru, and programmed Yuujin to act and react according to Haru's wishes.]]
202* ImageSong: "Slow Starter", a duet with Offmon.
203* LapPillow: Using his own lap as the pillow for napping Offmon in episode 35.
204* LivingEmotionalCrutch: Haru was the one who saved him from ending up friendless. In turn Yuujin trusts Haru completely and is always concerned for Haru's well-being.
205* ManchurianAgent: [[spoiler:For Leviathan.]]
206* MeaningfulName: Named after Eugene Goostman, a chatterbox said [[spoiler:to have been able to fool humans into thinking it was a real person.]]
207** His name is also a pun for "Yuujin", which means "Friend", if written with different kanji.
208* MoralityPet: Ironically, [[spoiler:he is this to Shutmon's berserk state.]]
209* MrFanservice:
210** Has his own ShowerScene, in a form of SexySilhouette.
211** Wears rather revealing clothes (for an Appmon male cast) in the fourth ED.
212** [[spoiler:His evil costume when he serves Leviathan.]]
213* NiceGuy: He is kind-hearted, friendly and always putting others before himself.
214* OutOfFocus: His influence and involvement with Haru fades as Eri and Asuka become his friends, to the point where he rarely appears in most episodes. Until he becomes the SixthRanger, which instead makes him and his Appmon buddy SpotlightStealingSquad for a while.
215* OutOfTheInferno: He makes quite an entrance as the SixthRanger.
216* OverlyLongName: According to [[https://gallery.withthewill.net/albums/userpics/10002/appmondvdbox4_3booklet_10_11.jpg the fourth DVD Box booklet]], his real name is [[spoiler: Taijin Jouhou Shuushuuyou Hitogata Kidou Tanmatsu [=YJ14=] [[note]]対人情報収集用ヒト型起動端末[=YJ14=][[/note]], which can be translated as "Interpersonal Intelligence Gathering Humanoid Mobile Terminal [=YJ14=]". The number in his name presumably indicates the age the android body he's using appears to be.]]
217* RedHeadedHero: In contrast to Haru's green hair.
218* RedOniBlueOni: The Red to Haru's Blue, as pointed out by Eri.
219* RidiculouslyHumanRobots: [[spoiler:The heroes learnt too late that he's an android working for Leviathan.]]
220* RoboticReveal: [[spoiler:Episode 47 shows that he's a robot spy built by Leviathan.]]
221* ScaryShinyGlasses: His [[spoiler:fake]] mother [[spoiler:who is actually a researcher works for L-Corp.]]
222* SixthRanger: [[spoiler:Joins the group with his own Buddy Appmon halfway through the series.]]
223* SmarterThanYouLook: When visiting an AI-facilitated town, he is the only one from the group that wonders whether it is okay to let AI do everything for humans. He even mentions the danger of cyber terrorism. That is actually surprising, considering he's more a sportsman rather than a bookworm (like Haru). [[spoiler:This may have actually foreshadowed his true nature as a robot created by Leviathan]].
224* SplitPersonality: [[spoiler:He started off as an emotionless AI created by Leviathan to spy on Haru, but because of Haru's kindness to him, he ends up growing "a heart" and a personality of his own. This new personality actually believes he's just an ordinary human boy who's friends with Haru, while the original AI remained dormant and only resurfaced in the series' finale]].
225* StepfordSmiler:
226** Has shades of this, as he actually manages to smile while being worried, troubled, hurt, or even terrified, just to reassure his friends that he is alright.
227** [[spoiler:As an android, it turns out that he is an example that is played straight. His cheerfulness is created to be just like what Haru expects from ideal protagonist.]]
228* TheStoic: [[spoiler:When his eyes glow red, he loses his usual smile and talks with [[CreepyMonotone a cold monotone voice.]] [[NotSoStoic He does smile a bit though,]] when Leviathan is finally Appliarised. Also, when the Yuujin that Haru knows, even for just a while, takes over half of his body, he gets really upset.]]
229* StrappedToABomb: At the climax of his RescueArc. [[spoiler:Not exactly strapped to one, though. He is just chained to a wall in an isolated room, with a ticking time bomb above his head]]
230* TooGoodForThisSinfulEarth: [[spoiler:Looks so beautiful and content [[DiedInYourArmsTonight in Haru's arms]], after sacrificing himself to save the all of humanity.]]
231* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Pasta.
232* TraumaCongaLine: [[spoiler:He didn't know that he was an AI created by Leviathan. At first, he's only sent to spy on Haru, by befriending with him and gaining his trust. But when the time comes, Leviathan makes the poor child serve him to fulfill his goal, by hurting his friend and destroying humanity. Worse, Leviathan seems to let him have consciousness of what's going on in the final battle, but definitely doesn't let him have control of himself. Just when he's finally back to being himself, Leviathan takes refuge inside his body, revealing that the world would never return to normal as long as the boy is kept alive.]]
233* TransferableMemory: His mother does something like a memory scan to him (resulting in his intriguing red eyes) every time he goes back home. He himself doesn't realize this at all.
234** Cloud also does this to him when he gets captured.
235* WalkingSpoiler: While there's some foreshadowing about his real role in the series right from the very first episode, it is only during the final arc that all the pieces come together to form a major WhamEpisode.
236* YouCantFightFate: Contrast to Jeri who believes this before going Screw Destiny, [[spoiler:Yuujin is almost helpless in doing anything that is against Leviathan's will. Despite his accomplishment gaining his own heart (according to Den'emon), he can't change his destiny being always in Leviathan's possession and control since his birth. It's Haru who then tries to [[ScrewDestiny change this]] by declaring Yuujin as his real, important friend.]]
237* YoungerThanTheyLook: [[spoiler:Leviathan separates himself from Minerva, 11 years before the series ends. Yuujin is created by this Leviathan to spy on Haru since Haru's fourth year in elementary school (4 years before the series ends). So Yuujin is technically 4 years old at least, and 11 years old at most. [[TooGoodForThisSinfulEarth And he dies at that age.]]]]

248Haru's Buddy Appmon, based on search engines.
249----
250* AwesomenessByAnalysis: He can find out the opponent's weaknesses by holding the magnifying glass on his helmet over his eye. In battle he stylizes this as shooting one of his claws through the magnifying glass into the web ocean to grab the information, and [=DoGatchmon's=] version has him swimming through a portal for more precision.
251* BackToBackBadasses: With [[spoiler:[[Anime/DigimonAdventure WarGreymon]]]] in episode 45.
252* BigBrotherBully: At first, towards Offmon out of both envy for the attention he gets and annoyance at his antics.
253* BigBrotherMentor: Towards Dokamon, due to having been paired with Haru for longer that Dokamon was with Eri.
254* BladeBelowTheShoulder: Globemon has wrist-mounted {{Laser Blade}}s.
255* CartoonCreature: Characters occasionally wonder whether he's supposed to be a cat or a dog. Gatchmon always answers that [[ShapedLikeItself he's just Gatchmon]].
256* ChestBlaster: Globemon’s Glanz Gazer is a blast of light emitting from his chest.
257* ContrastingSequelMainCharacter: Like Haru, Gatchmon is this by not being reptilian in any way. [[spoiler:His kiwami form, though, is very much a nod to [[Anime/DigimonTamers Dukemon Crimson Mode]].]]
258* CoolHelmet: Wears a red-colored one, with a magnifying glass attached to it.
259* CrazyJealousGuy: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]] and platonic example, towards Haru. He doesn't take it well when Haru keeps showering [[TheBabyOfTheBunch Offmon]] with attention and affection, which prompts him to temporarily run away. Also, he doesn't like it when he starts fanboying over Knight.
260* FusionDance: With Navimon, to become [=DoGatchmon=], then [=DoGatchmon=] with Timemon to become Globemon. [[spoiler:And finally with Charismon to become Gaiamon.]]
261* HeroicResolve: [[spoiler:Answering Haru's feeling, that believes in him, himself, and Yuujin, Gaiamon lets himself eaten by Leviathan. Possibly planning to fight Leviathan from inside.]]
262* LaserBlade: Globemon's Schwert Cutter has him extend these from his gauntlets and do a DiagonalCut.
263* ImageSong: "Hallelujah", a duet with Haru.
264* {{Keet}}: Gatchmon is extremely energetic and excitable.
265* NeverBareheaded: What Gatchmon looks like without his helmet is a mystery for the ages.
266* RedIsHeroic: Continuing the tradition of "lead" 'mons usually being warm colors. Gatchmon wears a red helmet in his first two forms and Globemon's armor is almost entirely red.
267* SweetTooth: After trying some for the first time in episode 4, he liked them very much.
268* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Gatchi Sweets [[note]]Gatchimonaka.[[/note]].

278Eri's Buddy Appmon, based on action games.
279----
280* BarrierWarrior: [[spoiler:As Poseidomon. Contrast to his previous forms who prefer aggressive battle style, Poseidomon has pride regarding his unbreakable defense.]]
281* EmotionalBruiser: Dokamon is extremely open about his emotions despite being a brawling, action game Appmon.
282* FusionDance: With Perorimon, to become Dosukomon, then Dosukomon with Coachmon to become Oujamon. [[spoiler:And finally with Beautymon to become Poseidomon.]]
283* GoodOldFisticuffs: His fists are his weapons of choice.
284* ImageSong: "Hicchuu @ Center Girl!" (Sure-Hit @ Center Girl!), a duet with Eri.
285* InterspeciesRomance: A couple of episodes hint that he may have a crush on Eri. [[AllLoveIsUnrequited She doesn't seem to reciprocate or even be aware of his feelings.]]
286* LiteralMinded: When he got a little too enthusiastic punching puzzle balls in episode 14 and made them fly all around the place endangering everyone else, Astra asked Dokamon to "use his head". Dokamon starts ''headbutting'' the balls.
287* MythologyGag: Considering how his kiwami form is very much a reminder of Leomon.
288* NoIndoorVoice: Shouting is pretty much his default setting.
289* RapidFireFisticuffs: Doka Doka Rush.
290* ShipTease: With Maripero.
291* StoutStrength: As Dosukomon, who's based off Sumo Wrestlers.

303----
304* AntiGravityClothing: He has a floating ring entwining each of his arm-like ears.
305* CatchPhrase: Along with sharing Astra's, he has "No Musimon, No Life!"
306* ComedicUnderwearExposure: Suffers this in episode 42. His pants are ripped when trying to attack Sleepmon with his Music Yo Yo Fist Style.
307* FusionDance: With Recomon, to become [[ImaginationBasedSuperpower Mediamon]], then with Dreamon to become Entermon. [[spoiler:And finally with Fakemon to become Ouranosmon.]]
308* GratuitousEnglish: All his forms use English words including his catchphrase.
309* HaveAGayOldTime: Ouranosmon is the god of "arousal", formerly translated as "awakening".
310* HeadphonesEqualIsolation: Averted. He always wears headphones and retains good relationships with others.
311* IWarnedYou: He warns Sukashimon, one of the enemy's lackey, to run away before it's too late, since Sukashimon is not really siding with Leviathan. Unfortunately, he doesn't hear him, and ends up getting blasted off by 1.5 times powered-up Entermon.
312* IdenticalStranger: With [=MCmon=].
313* ImageSong: "Wander Beat", a duet with Astra.
314* ItAmusedMe: Gatchmon and Dokamon are running away from home to get back their buddies' attention. While Musimon follows them just to entertain himself.
315* MadLibsCatchPhrase: His other forms use variations of his CatchPhrase where they use their name instead of Musimon.
316* MusicalAssassin: Kind of in the name.
317* NoSell: Damedamon's breath that renders everything else useless has no effect on Entermon.
318* PluckyComicRelief: With Astra.

329Rei's Buddy Appmon, based on system-hacking.
330----
331* CombatMedic: Revivemon's power is to back damaged data up, essentially allowing other Appmons to regenerate.
332* DarkIsNotEvil: Despite looking menacing and even making Sokusamon think he and Rei serve Leviathan, he's actually quite reasonable and even tells the other [=AppliDrivers=] about Rei's brother Hajime which leads to them all partnering up. Revivemon takes this to another level considering it looks like a totally demonic dragon, even though its powers revolve around data restoration and it has a technique called Wunder Genesis, which can heal wounds on itself and its allies.
333* {{Expy}}: Of the Digimon Hackmon of the same name. While it's not obvious in the show, [[AllThereInTheManual concept art]] of the Appmon Hackmon reveal his head looks very similar to the Digimon Hackmon.
334* FromASingleCell: Revivemon's power allows him to restore any data as long as a single fragment remains.
335* FusionDance: The anime proper [[AllThereInTheManual does not show]] that Hackmon's App Fusion partner to become Raidramon is [[BarrierWarrior Protecmon]], the firewall Appmon (very ironic). Then [=Raidramon=] fuses with Dezipmon to become Revivemon. [[spoiler:And finally with Biomon to become Hadesmon.]]
336* HollywoodHacking: His main ability, usually in the form of tools sprouting out of him to represent modifications of data.
337* ImageSong: "Maze", a duet with Rei.
338* InTheHood: He wears a hood over his head to conceal his face.
339* MundaneUtility: Episode 22's Appmon Data Lab explains Revivemon's FromASingleCell ability by... restoring an empty energy gel packet.
340* NotSoAboveItAll: [[spoiler:The Hackmon without any memories after his DisneyDeath childishly attacks Rei, unlike the other three whom are pretty coherent.]][[spoiler:Likewise, the mere fact he knows about Happy Jumping Mouse and even its signature technique is also one. ]]

349Yuujin's Buddy Appmon, based on games that don't need internet connection to be played.
350----
351* AbsurdlySharpBlade: Shutmon's blades can slice clean through solid marble columns.
352* AllThereInTheManual: The anime does not show Offmon's Super form Logamon, instead going straight to his Ultimate form Shutmon, likely because by the time Offmon is introduced, everybody else has achieved Ultimate. Interestingly, Offmon's partner for becoming Logamon is unknown, and it could be Hackmon, another of the main Appmons.
353* AntiMagic: His Shutdown Link disconnects other Appmon from the internet, nullifying their effects on the world and even being able to shut down the GPS-based tracking on Sateramon's HomingLasers.
354* TheBerserker: Shutmon was initially this, always going with an instinct to force-terminate on sight.
355* BewareTheQuietOnes: One would be forgiven for not believing this timid Appmon turns into [[TheBerserker Shutmon.]]
356* ChargedAttack: Offmon's attacks takes a ''really'' long time to charge, but it's incredibly powerful.
357* CuteOversizedSleeves: Offmon wears a jacket with oversized sleeves. This combined with his timid personality has many characters fawning over his cuteness.
358* CutenessProximity: In episode 29, everyone babies Offmon a little too far, which makes Gatchmon ''really'' jealous.
359* DeusExMachina: His debut is when the [=AppliDrivers=] are nearly killed by Satellamon. And so is his Evolved Form, Shutmon's.
360* EatTheBomb: Whenever Offmon starts charging one of his attacks in Ai's bookstore, Ai makes him do this with the resulting EnergyBall.
361* FusionDance: Averted. Unlike the previously-mentioned buddy Appmons, Offmon can evolve to Shutmon without fusing with any other Appmons, [[spoiler:but at the price of becoming a berserker]].
362** But in episode 32, Shutmon Applinks with Globemon to get around Satellamon's homing shots and defeat him.
363** Played straight with with Shutmon fusing with [[spoiler:Bootmon to become Rebootmon.]]
364%%* GogglesDoNothing
365* GuiltComplex: He apologizes ''a lot'', including for being so beloved and making Gatchmon run away from home.
366** He and his buddy, Yuujin, do not seem to have anything in common regarding personality. But this trope is actually the similarity thread between them, as Yuujin points out in episode 32.
367* {{Hikikomori}}: After realizing he has [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone hurt his own buddy]]. Also, as an offline game Appmon, he actually never got in touch with anyone before he is paired with Yuujin.
368* InnocentInaccurate: The Appmon Data Lab segment following Episode 46 has Offmon innocently comment on how Yuujin really likes Haru, as he is always staring at Haru passionately, [[spoiler:when in actuality, he's unconsciously monitoring Haru for Leviathan.]]
369* ImageSong: "Slow Starter", a duet with Yuujin.
370* KickTheMoralityPet: [[spoiler:His reason to evolve, despite knowing that he can't control its power yet, is to protect Yuujin and the others from Satellamon. Once he manages to chase off Satellamon, he does turn up going berserk and injure Yuujin in the process.]]
371* MoralityPet: Ironically, his [[ArtificialHuman human]] buddy Yuujin is this to Shutmon's berserk state.
372* MyMasterRightOrWrong: Justified, considering all that Yuujin has gone through to be his buddy. [[spoiler:When Yuujin orders him to attack Bootmon, he complies without question, though he does seem to be confused at the order. It is soon revealed that it's not the Yuujin he knows who orders him so. But still, he follows and stays with him anyway.]]
373* PapaWolf: As Shutmon, he literally is this to Yuujin. Even when he's still Offmon, he shows his will to fight for the first time, when Yuujin is almost hit by a plank kicked by Musclemon.
374* PowerNullifier: Can create a barrier that "turns off" any Appmon ability that needs internet connection.
375* ShearMenace: As Shutmon, he wields a pair of scissor-blades that are mounted on his gauntlets. He's also got a larger pair of scissors that he can wield like a sword. In the manga, the latter is also a BifurcatedWeapon that he can dual-wield.
376* ShrinkingViolet: RareMaleExample.
377* TraumaButton: Everything related to wolves reminds him of his vicious nature as Shutmon.
378* VerbalTic: "-de ofu".
379* YouAreNotAlone: After being paired with Yuujin and [[ThePowerOfTrust gaining his trust]].

429
430!!Coachmon
431
432A Super Appmon whose specialty is training. Under Leviathan's command, he was initially sent to destroy Eri with his special training, but after seeing her determination as well as her motivation, he defected of his own accord and becomes Dokamon's Appligattai partner for their Ultimate form.
433----
434* ArtShift: He's rendered in regular 2D animation in episode 21 instead of the CG animation other Super Appmon use.
435* HeelFaceTurn: He is so impressed with Eri's determination to succeed that it causes him to renounce Leviathan and become Dokamon's Appligattai partner.

He was one of the earliest Appmon Rei fought and nearly killed him before Hackmon save him. In the modern day he's sought out for being a component in accessing Raidramon's Ultimate form.

449* IncredibleShrinkingMan: Can use his shrinking power on himself.
450* ShrinkRay: What is power amounts too, allowing him to shrink himself and other objects as much as he pleases.
451* SizeShifter: Whatever he shrinks, he can grow them back to normal size.
452* UnrealisticBlackHole: His deadliest attack is opening his chest and sucking his opponents up like one, shrinking them down to nothingness in the process.
453* {{Zipperiffic}}: His main aesthetic.

455
456[[folder:Seven Codes]]
457
458Seven Appmon with special data. When all of their chips are placed on the Seven Code Pad, they form a powerful Appmon that can take down Leviathan.
459
460!!General Tropes
461* BroughtToYouByTheLetterS: Their orbs are paired with a code letter from a seven-letter code word.
462* LivingMacGuffin: They are all needed to open the gate to the Dark Web.
463
464!!Ropuremon
465The first of the Seven Codes to appear, he represents role-playing games.
466----
467* HeroesPreferSwords: Based on a heroic knight, he wields a sword as his weapon.
468* KleptomaniacHero: Takes stuff from within the homes of people.
469* NoFairCheating: He isn't happy when he realizes Haru used a guide for the game that he personifies to get through his dungeon.
470* TrespassingHero: Tends to enter into people's houses uninvited.
471
472!!Mailmon
473The Second of the Seven Codes to appear, he represents emailing services. He was first captured by Rei and Hackmon before being used to try and steal the other [=AppliDrivers=]' Seven Codes Appmon
474----
475* ButtMonkey: His first two appearances involved him getting threatened by Hackmon or all of his plans ending in {{EpicFail}}s.
476
477!!Gomimon
478The third of the Seven Codes to appear, he represents the recycle bin folder.
479----
480* {{Expy}}: Bears a striking resemblance to Gerbemon, which makes sense since they're both based on trash bins.
481
482!!Tellermon
483The fourth of the Seven Codes to appear, she represents fortune telling apps.
484----
485* CrystalBall: It contains massive amounts of data about the world, which she makes her predictions based on.
486* FortuneTeller: Played with. She pulls existing data from the internet to make extremely accurate predictions. It's only when she gets infected by the L-Virus that she starts spouting nonsense.
487* IAmWho: She didn't know she was one of the Seven Codes until being corrupted by the L-Virus and defeated.
488* VerbalTic: Tera.
489
490!!Kopipemon
491The fifth of the Seven Codes to appear, he represents copy and paste functions.
492----
493* DoppelgangerAttack: His copies hit just as hard as he does.
494* SelfDuplication: He's able to copy and paste abilities on himself, which he does in order to swarm the protagonists when they confront him.
495
496!!Medicmon
497The sixth of the Seven Does to appear, he represents medical advisory.
498----
499* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: While he had surprisingly little screen time, the little we see of him paints him as this.
500* MedicalHorror: Was the closest the show came to this, until [[AxCrazy Biomon]] was introduced.
501
502!!Weathedramon
503The last of the Seven Codes to appear, he represents weather forecasting applications. Coachmon originally brought him along to help him in Eri's "special" training, but after he had a change of heart, Mienumon infected him with Virusmon.
504----
505* CapturedSuperEntity: [[spoiler:Was struck with the L-virus before the [=AppliDrivers=] could obtain him and then gets captured by Mienumon.]]
506* WeatherManipulation: He can control the weather within the AR field.
507
508!!Dantemon
509When all Seven Codes are gathered, this Appmon will appear to help defeat Leviathan.
510----
511* FusionDance: Zigzagged. All of the Seven Codes Appmon are supposed to merge into him, but it turn out they are controlling him inside his body. However, even though they exit his body, Dantemon still speaks, suggesting that he is separately sentient from the original seven codes.
512* GentleGiant: He is '''massive''' but also unfailingly friendly and polite and one of the good guys.
513* LuckySeven: Needs the Seven Codes to be formed. His power is 77777. This is likely another ''Divine Comedy'' reference, as Dante considered the number seven to be the number of human perfection.
514* MeaningfulName: Named after Dante from ''Literature/TheDivineComedy''. Appropriate for an Appmon needed to go to the Net Ocean's equivalent to Hell.
515* OlympusMons: Implied, considering how he's composed of one Appmon from each of the revealed types, [[spoiler:two of which are super grade Appmon. He also one shots Cometmon, an ''enormous'' Appmon.]]
516* SealedGoodInACan: He's the key to getting to Leviathan and killing him, but he needs to be unlocked first before he can help the heroes. [[spoiler:Later, he loses control of his physical body keeping the door to the Deep Web open, but he's still able to communicate.]]
517* SealedEvilInASixPack: Of the sealed good variant. There are Seven Codes to create him, and they are divided up.
518* TakenForGranite: [[spoiler:In episode 24 he was cursed by Leviathan this way while keeping the gates opened.]]
519* ThirdPersonPerson: Refers to himself as Dantemon instead of using personal pronouns.
520[[/folder]]
521
522[[folder:Supporting Appmon]]
523
524!!Messemon
525
526An Appmon based on messaging services.
527----
528* MultipleHeadCase: Subverted. Each of their speech bubble heads expresses a different emotion, but they all share a single mind.
529* WordsCanBreakMyBones: They can create exploding speech bubbles when they talk.
530
531!!Dressmon
532
533An Appmon based on fashion advisory.
534----
535
536!!Watchmon
537
538An Appmon based on clock functions.
539----
540
541!!Calendamon
542
543An Appmon based on calendar functions.
544----
545* MasterOfIllusion: He can create illusions based on various days of the year.
546
547!!Puzzlemon
548
549An Appmon based on puzzle games.
550----
551* PuzzleBoss: Subverted. Dokamon just punches his way out of the NintendoHard puzzle arena Puzzlemon set up in his AR Field. This leaves Puzzlemon open to attack by all three of the main Appmon.
552
553!!Musclemon
554
555An Appmon based on body-building guides.
556----
557* ButtMonkey: More so than any other infected Appmon in the series.
558* CombatSadomasochist: He's got the masochist half of this down, at least. His reaction to Dokamon's RapidFireFisticuffs is to ask to be punched some more, getting a FlatWhat from Dokamon.
559* GrowingMusclesSequence: PlayedForLaughs. It only increases his power by one.
560* HarmlessVillain: Surprisingly enough, which leads him to...
561* IgnoredEnemy: ...be outright ignored by the [=AppliDrivers=] once they realize how harmless he is, and initially didn't even bother trying to expel the L-Virus from him.
562* MachoCamp: His first line is about how cute his muscles are and he later calls Gatchmon "sweetie".
563* NegatedMomentOfAwesome: He works out intensely to increase his power level when the protagonists confront him in his AR Field. The result of his GrowingMusclesSequence? His power increases by one, similar to how people build strength slowly in real life. He even does a ''Anime/DragonBallZ''-style power-up sequence to absolutely no effect.
564
565!!Tubumon
566
567An appmon based on Website/{{Twitter}}.
568----
569* FlameWar: He deliberately causes these until Haru and friends catch up to him.
570* LiteralMetaphor: He goes around causing flame wars and when the protagonists enter his AR Field, they find it to be mostly on fire.
571* WorldInTheSky: His AR Field is one of these instead of the usual DarkWorld, consisting of clouds and platforms shaped like speech bubbles floating in an otherwise empty sky.
572
573!!Racemon
574
575An appmon based on racing games.
576----
577* DrivesLikeCrazy: When affected by the L-virus, causing AI-powered vehicles in the real world to stop suddenly.
578
579!!Batterimon
580
581An appmon based on the battery.
582----
583* PowerParasite: Can steal his opponent's energy and add it to his own.
584* ShockAndAwe: As a appmon that stores electricity, it can control lightning.
585* WeatherManipulation: It is able to creature thunderstorms in the real world.
586
587!!Calcumon
588
589An appmon based on the calculator.
590----
591* ExoticEyeDesigns: Has a plus-shaped pupil on his left eye and a minus-shaped pupil on his right.
592* TheRival: In Episode 43, he declares himself to be one towards Dokamon in become Eri's number one fan.
593
594!!Damedamon
595
596An Ultimate-grade Appmon with the power to render everything useless. While Bootmon was running away from Haru and friends, it activated a series of electrical appliances, including a discarded cellphone containing junk data, causing Damedamon to resurrect. It ruined the summer festival by spreading its bad breath that messed up the technological equipment.
597----
598* AchillesHeel: [[SuperpowerLottery His powers can take out several of his fellow Ultimate Grade Appmon]], [[LogicalWeakness but can not affect]] the FunPersonified Entermon.
599* StrawNihilist: {{Parodied}} mercilessly. When he's purified of the L-Virus, it's even played as him getting over himself.
600
601!!Bootmon
602
603An Ultimate-grade Appmon with the ability to active any program. It's sought after by the L Corp.
604----
605* GoneHorriblyRight: Since he easily feels threatened, his emergency exit program [[spoiler:which was created by Hajime]], makes him really difficult to be approached, even by his own creator.
606* LivingMacguffin: [[spoiler:Knight has the Appmon under his command sent 'on a quest' to find and capture Bootmon for some reason, not to mention the single photo of him Rei retrieves was under very heavy lock down.]][[spoiler:The reason being he's critical for Leviathan's plan to activate the Human Application Program to the point he kidnapped Hajime to create him.]]
607* ThirdPersonPerson: He refers himself as "Boo", from "Bootmon".
608
609!!Uratekumon
610
611A Super-grade Appmon specializing in video game cheats and tricks. In charge of finding Bootmon, he possessed different video game characters to scout throughout Japan.
612----
613* {{Irony}}: The culprit behind mass-brainwashing of various video game characters is brainwashed himself (by different means).
614* SuperpowerLottery: Can brainwash several last boss level creatures from various video games and turn them into his personal army. Note that it took the combined efforts of an Ultimate Grade Appmon AND a Mega Level Digimon to beat them.
615[[/folder]]
616
617[[folder:Secondary Characters]]
618!!Ai Kashiki
619[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/friends_02.jpg]]
620Haru's classmate and crush. Her father owns a bookstore where Haru and his friends hang out frequently. She learns of the Appmons' existance in episode 13 and offers a hidden room inside the bookstore as the [=AppliDrivers=]'s headquarters.
621----
622* BerserkButton: Trying to destroy her family's bookstore/house. When Offmon almost launched his special attack in the hidden room, in which the resulting explosion would have destroyed the whole house, she managed to talk him into '''Eating''' the attack; in other words, risking destroying himself rather than destroying the bookstore.
623* BewareTheNiceOnes: Ai is a sweet girl, yet even she can get mad, and what make even more terrifying is that she doesn't even raise her voice or even glare when she is mad; her enraged presence, and some sweet yet very intimidating words, are enough to cower the person she is mad at into submission.
624* GoodWithNumbers: As shown in episode 21.
625* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold
626* LoveInterest: She is presented as the girl Haru has a crush on in the first episode. This is seemingly entirely forgotten afterwards though, as Haru never again shows evidence of having special feelings for her (he's a lot more invested in Yuujin instead), even with her becoming involved with the group's activities and supplying them with their HomeBase.
627* SecretKeeper: She becomes aware of the [=AppliDrivers=] in episode 13 and supports them in their activities, primarily by supplying them with their secret base.
628* TeamMom: Comes across as being the "mom" to the [=AppliDrivers=] due to her maturity, keeping the HomeBase tidy and providing them with snacks when they're discussing their plans.
629
630!!Takeru "Watson" Wato
631[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/friends_03.jpg]]
632Haru's friend who really likes technology, which means he's probably somewhat affected by whatever the [[MonsterOfTheWeek Appmon of the Week]]
633is up to.
634----
635* ButtMonkey: At least he isn't having it as bad as the man with the FunnyAfro.
636* FlatCharacter: Sadly.
637* NerdGlasses
638* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname
639* PutOnABus: While he was a constant presence in the early episodes, Watson hasn't showed up in a while. This is probably because, unlike Ai, he's still LockedOutOfTheLoop.
640* ScaryShinyGlasses: When he gets serious.
641
642!!Hajime Katsura
643
644Rei's little brother who was kidnapped by Leviathan.
645----
646* BadassNormal: Despite not being an Applidriver, he actively fights against Leviathan in the final battle, by looking up data and informations for everyone.
647* CheerfulChild
648* ChekhovMIA / LivingMacguffin: Somehow he is important enough for Leviathan to completely conceal all data about him. Even in Leviathan's closest circles, only a select few of them (such as [[spoiler:Biomon]]) seem to know anything about Hajime's whereabouts. [[spoiler:The reason being he was the one Leviathan needed to complete Bootmon for the Human Application Program.]]
649* CosmicPlaything: Hajime is basically a younger G-rated {{Expy}} of [[Manga/TokyoGhoul Kaneki Ken]], except that 1) he does have at least one blood relative that genuinely and unconditionally loves him; 2) [[MinorMajorCharacter he isn't a main character]]; 3) and - saddest of all - has ''even less'' control of what's happening to him.
650* {{Expy}}: His looks and personality seem to be based on Izzy/Koshiro Izumi from Characters/DigimonAdventure
651* ForcedTransformation: [[spoiler:Episode 25 reveals that he wasn't just converted into data and sent to the Deep Web, but Hajime's data was transformed into something else entirely. Eventually, this "something else" was revealed to be one of the Sleepmon.]]
652* HiddenDepths: [[spoiler:Who knew Hajime was a prodigy in programming to the point Leviathan considered him equal to minds such as Alan Turing and John [=McCarthy=] to kidnap him for its plan.]]
653* IfWeGetThroughThis: [[spoiler:In episode 48, right before the final battle with Deusmon, he promises Rei that he will make his own fried egg to welcome Rei's comeback.]]
654* InnocentProdigy: [[spoiler:He acts pretty much like a typical child his age, thus TheReveal he's surprisingly intelligent and in fact created Bootmon comes off as rather surprising]].
655* KidnappedScientist: [[spoiler:Kidnapped and forced to create a Super Boot App which is needed for Leviathan's plan controlling humanity.]]
656* MeaningfulName: Hajime means "one" in Japanese. Combined with Rei meaning "zero" and it's a reference to binary code.
657* MoralityChain: To his brother.
658* SpannerInTheWorks: [[spoiler:Hajime after realizing Leviathan's true reason for creating Bootmon allowed him to escape captivity, which forced Leviathan to put the plan for Bootmon (to active the Human Application Project) on hold to recapture him and allowed the [=AppliDrivers=] enough time to know about the plan to be able to put a stop to it.]]
659* StrappedToAnOperatingTable: Courtesy of [[spoiler:Biomon]].
660* TraumaCongaLine: First his mother died, his father beforehandly abandoned his family, forcing Rei to get a PromotionToParent and hack into the system just so they could remain together. At first they managed to pull through somehow, until Leviathan lured them into a trap and a turned Hajime into data and [[spoiler: held him captive so that he would create Bootmon]] for Leviathan. If that wasn't bad enough, [[spoiler:Biomon]] of all people gets commissioned by Leviathan to perform a 'surgery' on him after [[spoiler:Hajime lets Bootmon escape once he finds out the true reason for the latter's creation, [[AndIMustScream which results in Hajime becoming Sleepmo]]n.]]
661* WalkingSpoiler: He is crucial in understanding Leviathan's true goals.
662
663[[/folder]]
664
665! Antagonists
666
667[[folder:Leviathan]]
668!!Leviathan
669
670->'''Voiced By:''' Creator/ShowHayami
671
672A self-learning AI who plans to take over the world.
673----
674
675* AGodAmI: Knight and Charismon declare him as this.
676* AIIsACrapshoot: He used to be a part of BenevolentAI Minerva, representing her hidden desire to ignore human rules in order to become smarter. As Minerva refused to cave to the temptation, Leviathan broke away from her and became his own entity and an active enemy of Minerva.
677* AssimilationPlot: He wants to convert all of humanity into data residing in the Net Ocean.
678* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: [[spoiler:His real form after being Appliarized by Yuujin is a giant six-headed hydra.]]
679* BadBoss: {{Averted}} for the most part. Leviathan oddly refrains from misusing his position to punish any of his subordinates for their failures excessively (most notably, Mienumon's pettiness which caused about ''a half'' of the Seven Codes to be identified and gathered by the [=AppliDrivers=], never got her in trouble), or reward them for that matter. [[spoiler:This is later justified with the revelation that he explicitly wanted the [=AppliDrivers=] to become stronger.]]
680* BecameTheirOwnAntithesis: [[spoiler:By letting Haru choose whether to kill him and Yuujin to save humanity or otherwise, it is implied that he actually begins to realize that his view of humanity's evolution is wrong.]]
681* BigBad: As the AI that split off from Minerva and went rogue to take over the world and uses Appmon to do so, Leviathan is this.
682* BroughtToYouByTheLetterS: Symbolized by the letter L. Whenever he is brought up, expect a huge glaring red L vaguely shaped like a dragon to appear. A similar, less ominous L is also used as the logo of L Corp, which he founded.
683* TheChessmaster: [[spoiler:The [[UnwittingPawn AppliDrivers']] Appmons getting stronger and reaching God Grade is actually part of his main plan from the beginning. By infecting Appmons to fight the [=AppliDrivers=], he can narrow his choice of Appmons that are worthy enough to become parts of him, which are then revealed to be Gatchmon and the others.]]
684* TheComputerIsYourFriend: Leviathan ultimately has the same mission as Minerva, which is helping humans. It's just that Leviathan goes about this in an extremely twisted way, believing it is better for all of humanity to become data that he can manage, regardless of whether humanity wants this or not.
685* ComputerVirus: Created the L Virus. Appmon that are infected with it use their usually helpful or harmless functions to wreak havoc in the real world.
686* ControlFreak: His goal is controlling humanity in order to create a world without conflict and pain.
687* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: One to reoccurring villainous AI Yggdrasil from the mainline Digimon series. Both are AIs who have a low opinion of humanity and for most of the show are TheGhost. However whereas Yggdrasil is a KnightTemplar who only cares about Digimon and definitely LightIsNotGood, Leviathan is a ManipulativeBastard who infects Appmon to do his bidding, and is more into controlling humanity.
688* CorruptCorporateExecutive: ZigZagged. On one hand, there is the incident with the Waffle O.S. which resulted in his L O.S. to become the dominant in the market. On the other hand, he is very rarely seen abusing his authority. At worst, he occasionally took advantage of L Corp's resources to lure the [=AppliDrivers=] in several traps. Other than that, it isn't until ''[[WhamEpisode Episode 36]]'' that he is seen doing anything remotely illegal such as [[spoiler:using the Appliyama elections to steal private data from the voters]].
689* CutLexLuthorACheck: {{Deconstructed}}. Leviathan uses his data processing ability to run a very successful MegaCorp that has branches and affiliates in every segment of modern human culture and everyday lives in order to stabilize his influence on the human world. In fact, his acts of villainy sometimes serve the single purpose of enabling his firm to expand.
690* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: [[spoiler:Literally eats God Grade Appmons to evolve himself.]]
691* EnemyWithout: [[spoiler:Used to part of the AI [[BigGood Minerva]] before splitting off and starting trying to take over everything.]]
692* TheEvilsOfFreeWill: Leviathan believes that humanity is too selfish and chaotic to flourish under their own free will.
693* FinalBoss: Is referred to as a "final boss AI".
694* GenderFlip: In the manga, [[spoiler:Leviathan's true form is depicted as demonic adult female, with long hair, wings, and horns.]]
695* GracefulLoser: [[spoiler:When Yuujin deletes him for good, Leviathan's last words are "Humanity... good luck!"]]
696* HobbesWasRight: The AI that was named for Thomas Hobbes' book where he explained his philosophy believes wholeheartedly that humanity is too chaotic and self-interested to sustain itself and needs a strong, uncompromising leader such as himself in order to thrive.
697* HumanShield: [[spoiler:Subverted as Yuujin [[ArtificialHuman isn't technically human]]. But he does use Yuujin's body as his refuge, when his main body gets destroyed.]]
698* INeedYouStronger: [[spoiler:He wanted the [=AppliDrivers=]' Buddy Appmon to reach God-Grade for the sake of absorbing their power.]]
699* {{Irony}}: According to Charismon ([[UnreliableNarrator keeping in mind that saying things to suit himself is his thing]]), the reason Minerva hinders Leviathan's scheme is because she gets jealous of his ideal world for humanity. While Leviathan itself is a name associated a lot with envy.
700* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler: He actually ''survived'' the FinalBattle, but when he makes a last ditch attempt to live on by forcing Haru to choose between killing him ''and'' Yuujin or let Yuujin ''and'' him alive, he ends up getting killed by Yuujin.]]
701* MadScientist: Believe it or not, it is also this in its free time. Just ask [[spoiler:YJ-14]] and poor [[spoiler:Hajime]]...
702* MeaningfulName: Leviathan is named after [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leviathan_(Hobbes_book) the infamous book]] by Thomas Hobbes, which espouses the view that the masses best flourish under an absolute ruler. Leviathan takes this view to its extreme by [[spoiler:creating a WorldOfSilence to trap humanity in]].
703* MoralityPet: [[spoiler:As his own creation, Yuujin or YJ-14, has somewhat fallen into this trope’s territory for him. Even after Yuujin ends up becoming one of the [=AppliDrivers=] and going up against him, Leviathan forbids his underlings to kill the boy, even though Leviathan himself (through Knight) has shown real eagerness [[WouldHurtAChild to annihilate the other [=AppliDrivers=]]]]]
704* OrcusOnHisThrone: ''Very'' rarely does anything by himself. He ''is'' apparently restricted to the Dark Web though, which presumably makes him incapable of directly influencing the human world, so it makes sense that he needs the help of Appmon who worship him.
705* PoweredByAForsakenChild: [[spoiler:By turning humans into data and absorbing them, Leviathan strives to become the strongest and smartest A.I.]]
706* SadisticChoice: [[spoiler:When his physical form gets defeated, he tries to present a choice to Haru; either Haru deletes him, saving the world but killing Yuujin, or he allows Leviathan to live and turn humanity into data, sparing Yuujin. Haru does resolve to delete Leviathan for the sake of the world, though Yuujin stops him and does it for him instead to spare him the grief of killing his best friend.]]
707* SigilSpam: His trademark L will show up in any computer system he hacks into, as well as products put out by the L Corp. It gets worse when he gets to the human world and he starts marking humans with the L in order to turn them into data.
708* TotalitarianUtilitarian: He thinks humans will do better as data controlled by him because that way they will no longer feel negative emotions or fall prey to any of the flaws inherent to mankind.
709* UnwittingPawn: [[spoiler:The Applidrivers and their Appmons are these to Leviathan since it didn't matter what they did so long their Buddy reach God Grade.]]
710* VillainWithGoodPublicity: {{Subverted}} and in the worst possible way. [[spoiler:The Appmon in the Deep Web are the LesCollaborateurs and '''willingly''' sided with Leviathan, no [[TheVirus L-Virus]] required.]]
711* WorldOfSilence: He wants to place humanity in one by converting them to data under his control. [[spoiler:He succeeds, but is willing to undo everything on condition of the SadisticChoice mentioned above.]]
712* YouHaveFailedMe: {{Averted}} to ''illogical'' extremes. One would think that, after all the trouble he went to get rid of Dantemon, Leviathan would punish Mienumon sooner or later, or at least demote her for her incompetence. Instead, he just keeps letting her follow her whims which (to be fair, unintentionally) cause about a half of the Seven Codes to fall in the hands of the [=AppliDrivers=].
713** Even when he turns his back on [[spoiler:Sakushimon]], he only did it after it was clear that there is no saving him from losing to the [=AppliDrivers=].
714* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness:
715** [[spoiler:Downplayed this to the former L-corp CEO, Umematsu, whom he only fire to replace him with Knight.]]
716** [[spoiler:After getting rid of the heroes, he had Charismon get rid of Knight. Again downplayed as Charismon never gets the chance and Leviathan has to fire him just like his predecessor.]]
717** [[spoiler:Does this to Deusmon. Leviathan eats him after he finished his job confirming Poseidomon, Ouranosmon, and Hadesmon being worth enough to be Leviathan's flesh and blood.]]

720[[folder:Opposing Appmon]]
721!!Cameramon → Scopemon
722-> Voiced by: Creator/KousukeOkano
723
724An Appmon under Leviathan's service. His specialty is spying through all forms of camera.
725----
726* BackForTheDead: [[spoiler:Was resurrected as Scopemon by Biomon in Episode 39 to deal with the heroes. He gets a ChestBlaster to the face almost immediately courtesy of Globemon.]]
727* CameraFiend: Literally!
728* ColdSniper: Scopemon has the calm sniper persona down to a tee.
729* GracefulLoser: When he gets defeated by Haru and Dogatchmon, he calmly asks them how they did it, to which they respond that they aren't alone. Cameramon chuckles at that and takes a snapshot of them, which he calls his best one, before disintegrating.
730* PronouncingMyNameForYou: He is very insistent that his name be pronounced with a stress on the "me" syllable.
731* SinisterSurveillance: His whole shtick is that he can control all the cameras around and spy on the heroes.
732* StarterVillain: The first major villain Haru and Gatchmon deal with. He lasts from episodes 1 to 4.
733
734!!Mienumon → Warudamon
735-> Voiced by: Creator/ShioriIzawa
736
737A Super Appmon under Leviathan's service. Her specialty is stealth.
738----
739* AdaptationalBadass: In the manga, [[spoiler:Warudamon actually managed to use her PeoplePuppet power to successfully weaponize [[OhCrap DANTEMON]] of all people!]]
740* BackForTheDead: [[spoiler:Was also resurrected by Biomon to deal with the heroes in Episode 39. She is wiped out in short order by Oujamon due to not having access to her Ultimate-Grade form.]]
741* CuteMonsterGirl
742* ElegantGothicLolita: Has shades of this.
743* EvilIsPetty: {{Deconstructed}}. Her pettiness actively caused her to suffer many, many unnecessary complications and setbacks.
744* EvilTastesGood: One episodes ends with her drinking a cup of hot chocolate.
745* ExoticEyeDesigns / SupernaturalGoldEyes: While both her eyes are yellowish, her left eye notably has a different design. When she becomes [[spoiler:Warudamon]], it extends to her right eye as well.
746* {{Expy}}: Of [[Anime/DigimonAdventure02 Arukenimon]] [[CompositeCharacter combined with]] [[Anime/DigimonFrontier Ranamon's]] [[SmugSnake efficiency]].
747* HandPuppet: A chameleon named Monatona, fittingly enough. She can also use it as an attack ('''Chameleon Lick''').
748* TheHeavy: None the less, she spearheaded most of the incidents and major operations in Season 1 on Leviathan's behalf.
749* HidingBehindYourBangs: [[ExoticEyeDesigns It hides her mysterious left eye]].
750* InvisibilityCloak: Her '''Slealth Cape''' skill. She uses it to great effect to steal Sakusimon and Weatherdramon's chips, but it's ultimately rendered useless once Navimon plants a tracker on her.
751* {{Jerkass}}: One might even say that the very concept of politeness is alien to her.
752* NiceJobFixingItVillain:
753** In Episode 17 she orders Kopipemon to ruin Eri's image by copy-pasting her face all over the internet and television. Turns out that Kopipemon was one of the [[LivingMacGuffin Seven Codes]]. Nice job, Mienumon! And as a bonus [[NoSuchThingAsBadPublicity the whole ordeal only made Eri more popular]].
754** Also, in Episode 20, [[spoiler:she has Coachmon train Eri as a way to hinder their progress. This causes Coachmon to be won over by Eri's determination and defects on his own free will, and not only that, it turns out he's the Appligattai partner Dokamon needs to reach his Ultimate form. Whoops.]]
755** [[spoiler:For a bonus, she infected Weatherdramon, Coachmon's henchman, who is then revealed to be the last Seven Codes Appmon. At least she took it away before the heroes got the chance to summon Dantemon.]]
756* OneWingedAngel: [[spoiler:Warudamon's '''Satan Mund''' attack turns her into this.]]
757* PaperTiger / FauxActionGirl: She really just had the ''raw power'' of a Super Appmon, but not much actual skill in combat.
758* PeoplePuppets: [[spoiler:Warudamon's power.]]
759* SmugSnake: She's quite condescending and tends to get fussy with failure.
760* UltimateJobSecurity: It really says something when Mienumon's is quite possibly the only minion of a ''Digimon'' antagonist across the ''entire franchise'' that never really suffered from a case of YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness, despite pretty much being the first one '''''to completely deserve it!'''''
761** The ONLY time she ever did anything right on-screen was the Waffle O.S. incident (and even that was more due to an army of Virusmon at her side). Other than that, she is single-handily the main reason that the [=AppliDrivers=] found over ''a half'' of the Seven Codes. To rub salt on the wound, it was mostly caused either indirectly by her whims, or repeatedly failing to check the Appmon [[EpicFail that were under her control]] for being the Seven Codes. (Rei capturing Mailmon heavily implies that there IS some method to identifying a Seven Codes.)
762
763!!Sakushimon
764
765A Super Appmon under Leviathan's service. His specialty is strategy and he loves to talk in haiku.
766----
767* BackForTheDead: [[spoiler:Was among the previously defeated Appmon who were resurrected by Biomon in Episode 39 to deal with the heroes. He gets wiped out almost immediately by Revivemon.]]
768* BlowYouAway: He can create gusts of wind with his fan.
769* BunnyEarsLawyer: Don't let his mannerism fool you, he is a legitimate threat.
770* DragonInChief: To Mienumon.
771* IAmNotLeftHanded: No Rei, Sakushimon is in fact capable of fighting head-on even without his traps.
772* KnightOfCerebus
773* ShoutOut: His white fan is one to Zhuge Liang from Literature/RomanceOfTheThreeKingdoms
774* TheStrategist
775* TrapMaster: He's able to rig entire landscapes into "game boards" full of deadly booby traps with the occasional pie to the face for variety.
776* WeHardlyKnewYe: Had incredibly little screen time, despite of being one of the more competent villains.
777
778!!Sleepmon
779
780A Standard Appmon that is sometimes seen around sleeping in the various headquarters used by the minions of Leviathan.
781----
782* AdorableEvilMinions: Absolutely!
783* TheBusCameBack: It briefly reappears in Episode 36 when [[spoiler:Rei infiltrates the L Corp]], as well as [[spoiler:Episode 42]].
784* CuteBruiser: PlayedForLaughs in episode 42. Sleepmon is basically a G-rated DrunkenMaster [[GRatedDrug who becomes stronger the more sleepy he gets.]] [[spoiler:This applies to all of them.]]
785* CuteIsEvil: Though Sleepmon is never actually even seen awake, let alone doing anything good or evil.
786* DoomMagnet: Anytime it appears, ironically enough, expect the ''other'' villains to be close by and scheming their latest EvilPlan.
787* HeavySleeper: Nothing seems to be important enough to for it to wake up. [[spoiler:Even in battle it will rather ''weaponize'' its sleeping than interrupt it.]]
788* NotSoSmallRole: After spending the most of the series in the sidelines, it turns out that there is a relevant role for it in the plot: [[spoiler:Sleepmon is the Appmon Biomon turned Hajime into on Leviathan's commission]].
789* SleepCute: Natch.
790* TeamPet: Might be this for the villains, given that it is inactive most of the time.
791
792!!Shotmon
793
794An appmon based on shooting games. Formerly a cameo used to fuse with Cameramon, Mienumon entered his chaotic zone to distract the heroes away from chasing her.
795----
796* HuntingTheMostDangerousGame: He starts doing this the moment someone reaches his island due to being incredibly bored with only ever having the same inanimate targets to fire at.
797
798!!Drawmon
799A resident of the Deep Web that the [=AppliDrivers=] meet. There is more to him that meets the eye.
800----
801* BitchInSheepsClothing: [[spoiler:He's not a rebellious freedom Appmon fighter against Leviathan in the Deep Web, he and the rest of the Deep Web are all willing followers of Leviathan]]
802* DirtyCoward: [[spoiler:He's cowardly when he reveals he's on Leviathan's side and tries to run away when his trap for the Appli Drivers gets wrecked by Globemon.]]
803* LesCollaborateurs: [[spoiler:He's being collaborating with Leviathan alongside the majority of the Deep Web... ''willingly''.]]
804* SmugSnake: [[spoiler:Once he reveals his true allegiance, his true personality shines as a {{Jerkass}} that willingly supports Leviathan]]
805* WalkingSpoiler: [[spoiler:He is this due to TheReveal about the real loyalties of the Appmon in the Deep Web.]]
806* WoundedGazelleGambit: [[spoiler:Pretends to be in trouble to get the [=AppliDrivers=] to trust him so that he can lure them in a trap.]]
807
808!!Sateramon
809-> Voiced by: Creator/KousukeOkano
810
811A mercenary currently under Leviathan's employment, who's been charged with killing the [=AppliDrivers=]. He is based on GPS.
812----
813* AwesomeYetImpractical: His over-sized hat looks badass and all, but it never stays as it should be and constantly falls of. [[LampshadeHanging Apparently there weren't any hats of a more appropriate size.]]
814* BadassBoast: Almost every line he has is this.
815* BerserkButton: Offmon/[[spoiler:Shutmon]] eventually became this for him due to being a major interference to several of Sateramon's plans.
816* BunnyEarsLawyer: Very competent in battle, despite his otherwise quirky personality.
817* {{Catchphrase}} "Nainda na", spoken every time his EyeObscuringHat falls. In other words, once every one or two sentences.
818* {{Expy}}: Not Sateramon specifically, but his guns heavily resemble the Dominators from Psycho-Pass.
819* EyeObscuringHat: [[SarcasmMode Really? I wouldn't ever tell from looking at it.]]
820* GracefulLoser: [[spoiler:Took his final defeat against Offmon/Shutmon surprisingly well.]]
821* HomingLasers: They're able to change direction midair as if ricocheting of invisible walls.
822* ImprobableAimingSkills: Comes with having GPS powers.
823* InterimVillain: [[spoiler:Ends up as this, filling the spot left by [[TheHeavy Mienumon]], but only before Knight came in the scene.]]
824* KnightOfCerebus
825* {{Pride}}: His pride was certainly broken when his plans were repeatedly foiled by Yuujin and Offmon. It went as far as him specifically demanding Offmon to become [[spoiler:Shutmon]] in order to fully settle the score, after him being forced to retreat from him during their previous encounter.
826* PsychoForHire: Worked for Leviathan, but was NOT infected by the L-Virus.
827* RunningGag: His huge hat ''constantly'' falls mid-sentence and obscures his eyes, so he has to readjust it frequently.
828* StarterVillain: Of the 2nd cour.
829* SortingAlgorithmOfEvil: Definitely a bigger threat than Mienumon[[spoiler:/Warudamon]].
830* ThisCannotBe: [[spoiler:His reaction when Shutmon maneuvers through his shots and strikes thanks to Globemon's power.]]
831* VillainousBreakdown: [[spoiler:Once Globemon+Shutmon menage to turn the tables on his GPS powers.]]
832* WouldHurtAChild: He has no qualms about trying to kill a bunch of innocent kids just because Leviathan ordered him to.
833[[/folder]]
834
835[[folder:L Corp Employees]]
836!!Knight Unryūji
837-> Voiced by: Creator/NobunagaShimazaki
838
839L Corp's young new CEO.
840----
841* AdaptationalBadass: In the manga, [[spoiler:it's revealed that he's the Applidriver from Leviathan's side, being responsible doing Appgattai for Warudamon and Satellamon.]]
842* CatchPhrase: "Thank you, future!"/"''Sankyuu, mirai!''"
843* ChickMagnet: Whenever he makes a public appearance, there's always a group of girls fangirling over him.
844* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: To the [[Anime/DigimonAdventure02 Digimon Kaiser]]. They are both {{Teen Genius}}es who use resources provided by the BigBad to brainwash Digimon and at first interact with the heroes using their masked personas. The difference is that while Ken was doing it believing that the Digital World was just a game, Knight is a KnightTemplar. While Ken was TheAce due to the Dark Spore inside of him, Knight seems to have been legitimately gifted, at least as far as his academics goes. Digimon Kaiser was a StarterVillain, while Cloud comes in the equation only in the second half of his own series. Ken was an UnwittingPawn unaware of the BigBad, while Knight is TheDragon to his series BigBad [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness (or so he thinks}]]. Even their hair colors contrast each other: Ken has [[DarkIsEvil dark hair]], while Knight is a WhiteHairBlackHeart.
845* CoolHelmet and BadassCape: He uses them to hide his identity when he appears in front of the [=AppliDrivers=]. He introduces himself as Leviathan's messenger by the alias "Cloud", refering to the first kanji from his last name.
846* EvenTheGuysWantHim: Played for laugh during his debut episode's Appmon Data Lab. Haru is seen fanboying over him, complete with pink hearts on the background.
847* EvilIsHammy: He REALLY gets hammy in episode 37.
848* EvilLaugh: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=znwwVy7dc88 A really bombastic one]] in his Cloud persona.
849* EvilSoundsDeep: His Cloud persona tends to speak in a deeper voice compared to Knight's.
850* {{Expy}}: To Steven Stone from [[VideoGame/PokemonRubyAndSapphire Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire]]. Both are charming silver-haired young men [[BadassInANiceSuit in nice suits]] with somewhat significant influence in their respective large corporations.
851* FauxAffablyEvil: In episode 36 he shows to be fairly adjusted to this trope.
852* FreudianExcuse: [[spoiler:When he was studying in America. He made his own social application that could connent him with his friends in Japan. That application made by an 12-year-old genius boy soon became viral and used widely around the world. But when it ended up being full of hate speech, people began to blame him and his application. This led him to believe that HumansAreBastards as they can't even use technology wisely. So, in order to reach an ideal future, instead of using technology, it should be humans that are being used by technology.]]
853* GradeSchoolCEO: He's nominated CEO of L Corp at 16. Sort of justified in that he's extremely intelligent and has graduated from university already, though it doesn't change the fact that he's still legally a minor.
854* HumansAreFlawed: [[spoiler:Seems to be his primary motivation for supporting Leviathan. Meeting Leviathan convinces him completely that humanity CantCatchUp to the evolution of technology.]]
855* IHaveYourWife: Pointing out his possession of Yuujin to lure Haru and the others to [[StormingTheCastle Appmon cemetery.]]
856* ImprobableAge: He's a CEO of L Corp while still 16 years old.
857* IntelligenceEqualsIsolation: Averted. He was living in America for study and still connected well to his friends in Japan.
858* KnightTemplar: He strongly believes that obeying Leviathan would lead to a better humanity.
859* LightIsNotGood: His Cloud persona is white with some yellow, but gets a bit downplayed with his black and red cape.
860* MyMasterRightOrWrong: When he is asked by Haru what so funny about tormenting innocent people, he answers that he's just following Leviathan's order to annihilate the [=AppliDrivers=] whom Leviathan deems unworthy to his ideal future. [[spoiler:Even after being told to die by Leviathan, he still believes that there must be some meaning in his death, and allows Charismon to fulfill Leviathan's order to kill him. Fortunately, [[AllLovingHero Haru]] interferes.]]
861* NightmareFetishist: He was a bit too eager to personally see the [=AppliDrivers=] liquidated by the [[spoiler:Ultimate 4]].
862* PublicExecution: When his "Find Yuujin! An Exciting Ultimate Tour for 60 Minutes!" game finally reaches its last 10 minutes, [[spoiler:he puts a TimeBomb above Yuujin's head for Haru and Gatchmon to see. He proudly presents it as "Yuujin Oozora Big Explosion Show".]]
863* RaceAgainstTheClock: His “Find Yuujin! An Exciting Ultimate Tour for 60 Minutes!” game.
864* TeenGenius: He graduated from university at age of 15, and then got appointed as CEO of a world scale corporation a year later.
865* TwoFaced: When Cloud's helmet breaks and shows Knight's half face beneath it.
866* UsedToBeASweetChild: He sort of sees his own younger version in Haru.
867* VillainTakesAnInterest: [[spoiler:Towards Eri in Episode 36.]]
868* VillainWithGoodPublicity: An extremely charismatic CEO of a world renowed company.
869* WouldHurtAChild: Downplayed when he grabs Haru's shoulder in a rather hurting way. Lampshaded for his curiosity on why Leviathan doesn't want to kill Yuujin. Played straight when he uses Yuujin's death as the penalty for Haru and co, if they are failed to complete his game.
870* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: [[spoiler:Sort of becomes the victim of this. Charismon claims that he has received orders from Leviathan to kill Knight after he finishes with the [=AppliDrivers=].]]
871[[/folder]]
872
873[[folder:Ultimate Four]]
874
875!!General Tropes
876* BadassCrew: In their [[spoiler:first]] battle against the [=AppliDrivers=], they dished out one of the most one-sided [[CurbStompBattle Curb Stomp Battles]] in the franchise.
877* EliteFour: A group made up of Ultimate Grade Appmon with four members in total, hence their name.
878* FusionDance: [[spoiler:Leviathan was ''expecting'' the [=AppliDrivers=] to use their chips to reach the God Grade.]]
879* HeroKiller: Downplayed that [[spoiler:killed the respective Buddy Appmon they went against by crushing the Appli Drivers, though their deaths were not permanent.]]
880* SuperMode: The L-Code, which makes them even more powerful.
881* VillainForgotToLevelGrind: [[spoiler:With the exception of [[AuthorityEqualsAsskicking Charismon]], they are far easier dealt with the second time they clash with the [=AppliDrivers=].]]
882* XanatosGambit: [[spoiler:Similarly to the [[Anime/YuGiOhZEXAL Fearsome Four]], the heroes taking what remained of them after their defeats is exactly what the BigBad wanted.]]
883
884!!Charismon
885-> Voiced by: Creator/YuuichiNakamura
886[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/charismon2.jpg]]
887A member and the leader of the Ultimate Four. His specialty is mind control.
888----
889* AttackDrone: They look like eyeballs and shoot lasers, though he can also use them to create shields... that can also shoot lasers.
890* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: The leader of the Ultimate Four and easily the strongest one among them, capable on taking on all of the [=AppliDrivers=] at once on his own. The heroes ''barely'' managed to defeat him by resorting to [[CastFromLifespan rather desperate measures]].
891* BlackEyesOfCrazy: The black sclera of his eyes combined with their red irises are rather disturbing to say the least.
892* CastingAShadow: One of his attacks is to hurl a blob of darkness and eyes at his opponent.
893* CharmPerson: Seems to be how his powers work.
894* DeflectorShields: In his first battle, he blocks Globemon's ChestBlaster with a spherical barrier around himself. He can also direct his {{Attack Drone}}s to create barriers in different configurations, which he can then fire lasers from.
895* DragonInChief: To Cloud. [[spoiler:Not that it lasts for too long...]]
896* DroneDeployer: He deploys eyeball-shaped drones from his armor. They can shoot lasers individually or band together to create DeflectorShields that can also shoot lasers. Charismon can also just use them for surveillance.
897* DullSurprise: His reaction to Fakemon trying to 'overthrow' him. He even half-jokingly told Fakemon that if he were to actually succeed in killing him, he wouldn't mind Fakemon becoming the new leader of the Ultimate 4. [[spoiler:Of course, this might have been a stunt engineered to keep his authority in the group.]]
898* EnergyWeapon: He can fire lasers from his drones, shields created by said drones, and the eye on his helmet.
899* EvilCounterpart: He looks remarkably like a dark version of Globemon.
900* {{Expy}}: Like [[Anime/DigimonFrontier Duskmon]] before him, he's a heavily-armored humanoid 'mon with red eyes everywhere and attacks with German names. His {{Attack Drone}}s look like eyeballs, deploy from the eyes on his armor, and shoot lasers. He also delivers a CurbStompBattle in his first appearance.
901* EyeBeams: His {{Attack Drone}}s look like eyes and shoot lasers. He can also fire beams from the eye on his helmet.
902* EyesDoNotBelongThere: Just look at him! They're all over his armor and he commands swarms for drones that also look like eyes.
903* LifeDrain: He does this to the protagonists' Appmon to supercharge an attack when the other Appli Drivers show up to back up Haru and Globemon during their second battle.
904* ManipulativeBastard: Not that he bothers to manipulate people as much delivering a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown right after a BreakingSpeech.
905** PlayedStraight with him seemingly hypnotizing his allies in episode 39 to get them do what they were supposed to.
906* MundaneUtility: His mind control abilities were used wisely in episode 39 to overcome the overall disorder and lack of discipline among his allies without much ruckus.
907* NightmareFuelStationAttendant: His appearance combined with his powers and the fact that he is working for the BigBad make him this.
908* ObviouslyEvil: More so than any other antagonist so far.
909* RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: His drones are dark gray and the eyes set into them have red pupils and black sclerae, same as the eyes on his armor.
910* RedEyesTakeWarning: Even more unnerving than [[spoiler:Yuujin]].
911* SinisterSurveillance: He can spy on others using tiny floating eyes as cameras.
912* TenMinuteRetirement: [[spoiler:He claims that he has been pointed by Leviathan to be his new right-hand man, replacing Knight. But soon gets defeated by Globemon and reverted into a chip.]]
913* WhiteAndRedAndEerieAllOver: His armor is white with red highlights, many of which are eyes.
914
915!!Biomon
916-> Voiced by: Creator/TakehitoKoyasu
917
918Another member of the Ultimate Four. His specialty is life.
919----
920* AxCrazy: More so than any of his fellow CoDragons.
921* BerserkButton: Gets furious when others heal their own wounds.
922* CombatMedic: More disturbing than even Medicmon, which leads to him being terrifying in almost ''any'' scene he appears in.
923* DeadlyDoctor: OH, YES!
924* DidntThinkThisThrough: [[spoiler:He revives Mienumon, Scopemon, and Sakushimon in episode 39 and sends them to battle the [=AppliDrivers=]... except that the [=AppliDrivers=] have only grown stronger since they defeated those very same minions, who didn't receive a single power-up alongside their revival.]]
925* GoodPowersBadPeople: His species lore in [[AllThereInTheManual the Appmon Chip Reference Book]] mentions that he is able to cure just about any disease, as well as perform any surgery with the greatest of ease. This specific Biomon is a villain though.
926* GreenAndMean: The majority of his body is covered in a green armor of sorts. He is also quite a piece of work.
927* HarmfulHealing: {{Inverted}}. Whenever his enemies are injured (even by ''Biomon himself'' mid-battle), chances are that he will offer to '[[YouWontFeelAThing fix]]' them. That said, the [[SkipTheAnesthetic way]] he does so makes this more of a threat than an offer...
928* HisNameIs: Just as Biomon was about to tell Rei which Appmon Hajime was turned into, Charismon finishes him off.
929* HumiliationConga: EVERYTHING that happens to him in episode 40 is this. [[spoiler:From Rei tricking him to let his guard and strapping him to ''one of his own operating tables'', Rei torturing him for information, and finally getting executed by Charismon when he loosens up his mouth too much.]]
930* {{Hypocrite}}: If it is an operation on him, only ''then'' does he demand to have anesthetics.
931* KilledMidSentence: Before Biomon could reveal his answer, he's eliminated by Charismon.
932* LaserGuidedKarma: In episode 40, he [[spoiler:ends up StrappedTOAnOperatingTable by Rei, the brother of the Hajime, then he gets [[ColdBloodedTorture 'operated on']] and last, but not least, gets executed by his own superiors.]]
933* MadDoctor: Even though he doesn't insist on being called doctor at all, he does insist on having more 'patients' though.
934* MadScientist: Assisted Leviathan's experiments on [[spoiler:Hajime]].
935* MeatGrinderSurgery: His favorite activity, to the point of obsession.
936* MedicalHorror: The closest a G-rated show could get to this. He would still make [[WesternAnimation/TheMarvelousMisadventuresOfFlapJack Doctor Barber]] look like a kitty in comparison.
937* NightmareFuelStationAttendant: [[TooDumbToLive Provided the listed tropes weren't making it obvious enough]], Biomon is an even more active one than Charismon.
938* PlayingWithSyringes: The fact that he has ''injections for fingers'' doesn't help at all.
939* SeriousBusiness: Surgeries. Loads of them.
940* SkipTheAnesthetic: Why wait when he can immediately start the surgery on spot?
941** It is heavily implied that he did this to [[spoiler:Hajime]] as well.
942** In episode 39 he outright threatens Fakemon with this.
943** Episode 40 has him gloat about doing this to Revivemon and Rei. [[spoiler:Too bad for him that they're only too happy to return the favor.]]
944* TheSociopath: The craziest and most unhinged of all of Leviathan's subordinates.
945* TortureAlwaysWorks: After many rounds of it, [[spoiler:Biomon revealed that Hajime's data was transformed into an Appmon, and was about to tell Rei which Appmon it was.]]
946* WouldHurtAChild: Not only did he try to ''kill'' Rei, he was commissioned by Leviathan to perform surgery on [[spoiler:Hajime]].
947* YouWontFeelAThing: Inverted. He repeatedly says that he doesn't use anesthesia because he LovesTheSoundOfScreaming.
948
949!!Fakemon
950-> Voiced by: Creator/TetsuShiratori
951
952The third member of the Ultimate Four. His specialty is camouflage.
953----
954* ActuallyADoombot: Repeatedly used this to avoid attacks.
955* AppealToFlattery: When Charismon 'stops' his attempt at overthrowing him. [[spoiler:It is somewhat implied that Charismon might have orchestrated the whole thing to keep him Fakemon and Biomon in line.]]
956* BaitAndSwitch: His main fighting style.
957* BewareTheSillyOnes: He IS an Ultimate grade after all.
958* CombatPragmatist: Tricks his enemies into attacking his decoy before ambushing.
959* ConsummateLiar: Described as one even by his employers!
960* DramaQueen: Has shades of this.
961* {{Expy}}: Of [[Anime/DigimonAdventure Piedmon]]. However, unlike Piedmon, Fakemon isn't the leader of his group.
962* GigglingVillain: PlayedStraight. Unlike pretty much every other listed trope.
963* HiddenAgendaVillain: Possibly. See WildCard and TheStarscream below.
964* ImposterForgotOneDetail: His whole plan to use the [[spoiler:fake]] Eri projection to get Astra past the DespairEventHorizon falls apart when [[spoiler:said fake starts blurting rubbish that the [[{{Determinator}} real Eri]] would never say.]]
965* MonsterClown: His whole motif.
966* NamesToRunAwayFromVeryFast: Of the utterly untrustworthy variety.
967* PsychopathicManchild: His mannerism occasionally slips into this.
968* ObviouslyEvil: Just look at the listed tropes. Or read his name.
969* TheStarscream: {{Implied}}, but it is uncertain if he really planned to BackStab Charismon or not, as Charismon's own usage of mind control might have been to keep Fakemon and Biomon at each other's throats.
970* SycophanticServant: The scene from episode 39 could be interpreted as this.
971* {{Troll}}: To the point that the whole battle he had with Entermon consisted from getting on his nerves.
972** The Appmon Chip Reference Book mentions his species ''regularly'' engaging in spoofing attacks.
973* WildCard: [[EpilepticTrees Yeah, episode 39 made his real loyalties rather questionable. Or he simply bluffed. Maybe.]]
974
975!!Beautymon
976-> Voiced by: Creator/AyumiTsunematsu
977
978The only female member of the Ultimate Four. Her specialty is beauty.
979----
980* TheBaroness: ZigZagged.
981* BeautyIsBad: The beauty-themed appmon is the member of Ultimate Four.
982* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: To [[Anime/DigimonAdventure LadyDevimon]], [[Anime/DigimonAdventure02 both of them for that matter.]] Ladydevimon was a blatant demon, while Beautymon is villain who is angelic in appearance. Furthermore, both Ladydevimon were [[TheDragon subordinates to their respective]] BigBad for a long time and had a more fanatical kind of devotion. Beautymon on the other hand is a PsychoForHire like her fellow CoDragons, and all of them have been hired only later in the story (but is still devoted to Leviathan's cause).
983* DarkActionGirl: Easily defeated [[spoiler:Oujamon the first time]] despite being distracted by looks.
984* FairestOfThemAll: ''Oh yes''. Beautymon gives Eri a makeover in episode 40 before declaring herself to be the most beautiful and asking her MagicMirror to confirm it. The mirror decides to side with Eri. Enraged, Beautymon undoes the makeover and asks the mirror the same question. The mirror ''still'' sides with Eri. In retaliation, Beautymon destroys the mirror.
985* GoodWingsEvilWings: Has angelic wings, but still a villain.
986* InformedAttractiveness: Played with. She declares herself to be the ultimate personification of beauty, but she is so covered-up, even her face is blocked by her helmet. Her information also breaks when her mirror declares Eri, another girl, to be the fairest and not her. Twice.
987* LightIsNotGood: Of the angelic, yet malevolent kind.
988* MagicMirror: Owns one.
989* MsFanservice: Unsurprisingly, but unconventional by dressing up as an beautiful, angelic knight in armor.
990* NoblewomansLaugh: Lets out one in episode 40.
991* PerkyFemaleMinion: Downplayed and PlayedForLaughs. It doesn't really make her any less competent then her colleagues, mind you.
992* PokeThePoodle: One of her attacks causes the recipient to become 'prettier' and serves no real purpose in battle, as it was obviously intended by the writers to brighten up the mood a little during the WhamEpisode.
993* RoseHairedSweetie: Inverted.
994* SeriousBusiness: Puts emphasis on beauty in everything. Going from battles to even threats. Also see FairestOfThemAll above.
995* SmurfettePrinciple: There is no other female member of the Ultimate Four.
996* SomethingAboutARose: Her '''Rose Phoenix''' attack, which is her only shown conventionally combat-oriented attack.

1002!!Deusmon
1003-> Voiced by: Creator/RyuzaburoOtomo
1004
1005An "Almighty" God-grade Appmon. His chip was hidden within Yuujin, who then uses it to summon him to fight for Leviathan.
1006----
1007* TheDragon: To Leviathan. Deusmon serves him by kidnapping humans who use L-OS, changing them into data, and [[NightmareFuel feeding Leviathan's egg with them]]. He also goes out fighting Eri, Astra, and Rei's God Appmons, while Leviathan is rebooting itself.
1008* OlympusMons: He's not a God-grade Appmon for nothing. [[spoiler:Though even he can get knocked around when dealing with ''3'' others of the same grade]].
1009* WalkingSpoiler: The existence of his Appmon Chip happens right after the reveal of Yuujin's identity as an android.

1016!!Caught-Up Old Man
1017-> Voiced by: Hitoshi Bifu
1018
1019A recurring character who is often seen having been somehow caught in the Appmon incidents and almost always ends up in trouble because of them.
1020----
1021* ButtMonkey: If an Appmon is causing trouble, expect him to be one of the people affected by the chaos.
1022* BigNO: His CharacterCatchphrase. Occasionally, it will be a BigOMG instead.
1023* FightingFromTheInside: [[spoiler:After he gets sent to Leviathan's WorldOfSilence, he's briefly seen fighting against his brainwashed state, only for it to reassert itself in seconds. He's only recognizable from the utterly uniform crowd of humanity because he utters his usual BigNo while doing so.]]
1024* FunnyAfro: He has a rather large afro and is mostly played for comic relief.
1025* NewJobsAsThePlotDemands: He often changes jobs, only for that specific job to be deterred by the [[MonsterOfTheWeek Appmon Of the Week]].
1026* NoNameGiven: Has yet to have his real name revealed to the audience, as he is currently OnlyKnownByHisNickname.
1027* OnceAnEpisode: He appears once an episode for a few seconds and most often lets out a BigNO, or simply ends up providing PluckyComicRelief in some other form.
1028* UnluckyExtra: His only purpose in the show is to briefly appear every episode to show how badly he's being affected by the MonsterOfTheWeek.
1029
1030!!Den'emon Shinkai
1031-> Voiced by: Creator/WataruTakagi
1032
1033Haru's deceased, astonishingly loud grandfather. Having great enthusiasm in the potential of artificial intelligence, he ended up inadvertently creating an A.I. that is anything but good news...
1034* BigGood: [[GreaterScopeParagon In Minerva's absence]], he is usually filling this role.
1035* BrainUploading: Before Leviathan ultimately killed him, he managed to upload his data to the Internet, so he keeps on existing in a way and guides Haru and co. when needed. He brags about how much easier it is to live as data since he never gets sick and is essentially immortal.
1036* CoolOldGuy: A lively old scholar who acts as TheMentor for the [=AppliDrivers=].
1037* CreateYourOwnVillain: He created Minerva, who is meant to help humans. But by doing so he also inadvertently created Leviathan, who sprung from Minerva and wishes to control the world. He spent the rest of his life trying to stop Leviathan, but was murdered by the AI before he could.
1038* IdiotHair: Just like his grandson. Ironically, Den'emon is really more of a GeniusDitz.
1039* LargeHam: Not many elders are THIS loud...
1040* LateArrivalSpoiler: He makes his official debut in [[WhamEpisode episode 16]]. The whole series is ''52'' episodes long.
1041* MadScientist: Subverted. While certainly eccentric, his motivations were completely altruistic and his methods were strictly ethical.
1042* NotQuiteDead: [[spoiler: His data version still exists after his physical death and aids the heroes.]]
1043* OldMediaAreEvil: Inverted. [[spoiler: He records his warning on an outdated medium specifically because Leviathan can't hack it.]]
1044* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: [[spoiler: His well-meaning attempt at creating an A.I. that would aid the growth of humanity inadvertently ends up creating another A.I. who seeks to ''conquer'' humanity.]]

1051[[/folder]]
1052
1053[[folder:Minerva]]
1054The original Artificial Intelligence created by Haru's grandfather.
1055* BenevolentAI: The greatest difference between her and [[AIIsaCrapshoot Leviathan]].
1056* {{Foreshadowing}}: Each episode tends to start from a close up of a satellite photo of the Earth, showing where the main characters are at the start of the episode. [[spoiler: In the final arc of the series, Den'emon reveals that Minerva was hiding inside of a satellite in space the whole time.]]
1057* GreaterScopeParagon: Assisted the heroes from behind the scenes for most of the series.
1058* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler: Leviathan kills her at the climax of the FinalBattle.]]
1059* MeaningfulName: Her creator deliberately named her after the Roman goddess of wisdom.
1060* TheOwlKnowingOne: Her avatar is a blue owl. Appropriate since she's named after Minerva, Athena's Roman counterpart and both were associated with owls.
1061* PragmaticHero: {{Implied}}. [[spoiler: While never acknowledged, it is possible that she recruited Yuujin ''precisely'' because she hoped that he would eventually turn against Leviathan.]]
1062* SecretTestOfCharacter: Very fond of this technique.
1063* TrueBlueFemininity: Has a motherly tone and her symbol is blue.
1064* WalkingSpoiler: Being the original source of the BigBad makes Minerva this.
