Digimon Savers

(still under construction)

=Story= It is a story set in the near future, when the existence of "Digital Monster" is confirmed because of the discovery of a Net world, the "Digital World". Daimon Masaru is a rowdy 2nd year junior high school student who spends all of his time fighting and utterly fails at computers. His father, Suguru, is a professor and scientist who was the No.1 leading authority on researching the Digital World, but now he is missing. The government establishes a private national organization, "Digital Accident Tactics Squad" or DATS, to especially handle the virulent Digimon. One day, Masaru meets an escaped Agumon that DATS has labeled as "Substandard" and was to dispose of. They become friends after a fight, and DATS recruits Masaru. Together with their DATS teammates, Thoma H. Norstein and Gaomon and Fujieda Yoshino and Lalamon, Masaru and Agumon go on to resolve various incidents that Digimon causes and protect the human world from the virulent Digimon.

Overview
After the team battle several Digimon realizing in the area, Thoma later hypothesizes that Digimon have been appearing in the real world through human emotions, particularly the seven deadly sins. He also presents information that the barrier between the Earth and the Digital World had rapidly disintegrated during the ten years since the Digital World Exploration.

When Mercurimon, a member of the Olympus Twelve and one of the rulers of the Digital World, realizes in the Real World along with Falcomon, this provokes the DATS team to begin the huntdown for them after the damage they incurred in the area through Piyomon. This embarked the beginning of their adventure in the Digital World. It is eventually revealed that the real enemy was Kurata Akihiro, a former member of the Digital World Exploration Party, who began a Digimon massacre years prior to the current events of the series. This was the pivotal catalyst invoking Ikuto's hatred for humans as his adoptive mother, Yukidarumon, was amongst one of the victims of Kurata's atrocity.

After Kurata escaped back to the real world, he tricked Chief Hashiba that Masaru and the other members of DATS were traitors. Through this, he had most of the group's memories erased, and had Ikuto, Satsuma, and all other members of the DATS branch were put under statutory arrest. However, thanks to their partners, Masaru, Thoma and Yoshino regained their memories. Moments later Kurata blew up the DATS HQ building and escaped to the Digital World. In answer to Masaru and the others' pursued efforts in attempt to stop his plans, he sent his henchmen - Kouki, Ivan, and Nanami - to deal with them.

While on the hunt for Kurata, the DATS team enounter Bantyo Leomon, who takes out a group of Gizmon: XT sent by Kurata. He later trains them on how to master their Digisouls and after they successfully do so, he points them in the direction of the Holy Capital. Tracking down Masaru and the others' whereabouts in episode at the Holy Capital/El Doradimon, Kurata decides to plan an invasion. Concurrently, Kurata gave his henchmen Bio Hybrid upgrades in order to defeat Masaru. It is shown that his is collectng Digimon Life Energy to revive Belphemon Sleep Mode, concealed in his lab.

He planted space-time oscillation bombs within the Holy Capital and detonated them with a device he had at a base, transporting El Doradimon to the real world. The government pledged full support in Kurata in order to get rid of the potential threat. He destroyed El Doradimon and disretely absorbed its Life Energy.

Kurata persuades Thoma to join forces with him, promising that he will cure his ill sister, Relena. He later revealed to Thoma Belphemon Sleep Mode and how he found his DigiTama and was using the Life energy to revive him. He planned to use the Demon Lord not only to subjugate the other Digimon and the Digital World, but for his bid for dominating the real world as well.

Kurata asked Thoma to manufacture a device to maintain full control of Belphemon. In the end, Thoma destroys the device so that Belphemon would remain immobile and that he could no longer control it. Angered by Thoma's sudden betrayal, he enters a chamber, in which he digitizes himself and his data is projected towards Belphemon Sleep Mode's clock via a satellite dish on top of a vehicle and merges with it, enabling it to transform into Belphemon Rage Mode. When Shine Greymon evolved to Shine Greymon Burst Mode, Belphemon was destroyed and Kuara separated from it.

Kurata presses a trigger, which detonates a space-time oscillation bomb floating in the air, ensuing a massive explosion, significantly weakening the interdimensional barrier between both worlds. Kurata gets caught in a secondary explosion and disappears. On the verge of destruction, the collision betwen both worlds was put on a temporary stand-still by the courageous efforts of Bantyo Leomon who then ordered Masaru to search for Yggdrasil.

After reaching Yggdrasil's location, the DATS team encounter Craniummon, along with many of the other Royal Knights, and learn of Yggdrasil's decision to destroy the Human World by dispatching the Royal Knights as an attempt to eliminate the humans, who it believes are a major threat to Digimon. After defeating some of the Royal Knights, the DATS team confront Yggdrasil, who after being expelled from Suguru's body attained a newer form determined to completely destroy the Human World.
