Digimon Adventure 02
Daisuke is introduced as a longtime classmate of Hikari. When he saw that Takeru, the new kid, is being friendly with Hikari, he became jealous, as he had a crush on Hikari. He soon received his D-3 and was brought to the Digital World. There, he lifted the Digimental of Courage, freeing V-mon, who was overly excited to see Daisuke. They were attacked by a Monochromon under the control of an Evil Ring, and Daisuke saved Hikari from being run over by it. By V-mon's instruction, he activated the Digimental of Courage, Armor Evolving V-mon to Fladramon, who then freed Monochromon from the Evil Ring. Some time later, Daisuke's soccer team played a game against Tamachi FC, a team led by the famous Ichijouji Ken. When Ken came into the game and scored goal after goal, Daisuke prevented him from scoring a tenth goal by tackling him, injuring his ankle in the process. In retaliation, Ken (as the Digimon Kaiser) had Daisuke degrade himself, threatening to feed the Chosen Children to Deltamon. However, the real Chosen Children appeared, revealing the deception. Daisuke tackled him in a scuffle, and during the fight, Daisuke recognized the injury on the Kaiser's leg, prompting Ken to reveal himself as the Digimon Kaiser.

When Ken used an Evil Spiral to control Taichi's Agumon and evolved him into Metal Greymon Daisuke does not want to attack him for fear of hurting him. Yamato showed him that you have to do what is best for a person, and his desire to help his friends gained him the Digimental of Friendship.

During the final battle with Chimeramon, Daisuke attempted to locate the Kaiser's base's engine room and was led there by Wormmon, who was equally determined to save Ken from himself. Daisuke discovered that the base's power source was the Digimental of Miracles, which he used to Armor Evolve V-mon to Magnamon. When Daisuke unlocked the Digimental, V-mon noticed that a crest is inside of it, which was later revealed to be Ken's Crest of Kindness. Although Magnamon was powerful, his true power was not revealed until Wormmon gave him the energy to defeat Chimeramon using his Extreme Jihad attack. Daisuke and the others finally made Ken realize that Digimon were real, living things, not just computer data.

Daisuke was the first of the new Chosen Children to have his partner evolve naturally to XV-mon. He was also the first to extend his hand in friendship to Ken. Through hard work, he was able to convince the others to forgive Ken, some earlier than others. When Ken went head on into a hopeless battle against Ookuwamon, Daisuke showed up and tried to convince him that he can't go fighting all on his own. Daisuke's words to Ken enabled XV-mon to Jogress with Stingmon and form Paildramon. From this day on, Ken was slowly integrated into the team, and became Daisuke's close friend.

On Christmas eve, Daisuke and the younger Chosen Children came to Ken's Christmas party, which ended abruptly as they had to send rampaging Digimon back to the Digital World and destroy a Dark Tower. On Christmas Day, the Chosen Children found out that Digital Gates were open in the entire world. Qinglongmon gave the Chosen Children one of his Digicores to help power up the Digimon, enabling Paildramon to evolve into Imperialdramon. Traveling with Imperialdramon, Daisuke went to New York City to help Mimi, Michael and the rest of the American Digidestined to round up the wild Digimon that had come through the gates.

Back in Japan, the children had to fend off the Demon Corps, a group of evil Digimon led by Demon. The others' Perfect Digimon gave Imperialdramon the power they got from Qinglongmon he mode changed into Imperialdramon Fighter Mode, and with this power, Imperialdramon destroyed Skull Satamon. Following this, Archnemon and Mummymon showed up with a truck full of kids they had rounded up, and coaxed Ken to come with them. Ken agreed, but Daisuke chased after their truck, first by car with Kido Shuu, and then on the back of Lighdramon. He finally reached Ken when the truck was stopped in Hikarigaoka by Demon, who demanded to have Ken. Daisuke and the other children helped Ken open a gate to the World of Darkness and banished Demon through the gate. However, Archnemon, Mummymon and their boss, Oikawa, managed to run away.

Daisuke and the others followed the seeded children for the following days, facing Oikawa several times. On December 31st, they followed Oikawa and the children to the world of dreams, where it was revealed that Oikawa Yukio was possessed by the spirit of Belial Vamdemon, who absorbed the power of the Dark Seeds to gain a corporeal form. He killed Archnemon and Mummymon, which shocked and frightened the other Chosen Children, but only Daisuke wasn't frightened enough and he and XV-mon started fighting back. Belial Vamdemon subjected the children to an illusion, showing their greatest desire, but Daisuke was the only one not affected; he was happy with what he had, and his only desire was to defeat Belial Vamdemon. Instead, he and his Digimon, split up into V-mon, Fladramon, Lighdramon and XV-mon by the power of the world of dreams, went to each of the Chosen and helped bring them back to reality. When everyone's illusions were broken, Daisuke encouraged the others to try what he had done with his own Digimon, and with Ken's help Paildramon, Imperialdramon and Imperialdramon Fighter Mode appeared all at once to fight BelialVamdemon. After BelialVamdemon escaped to the Digital World, the light from his D-3 helped weaken Belial Vamdemon. When Belial Vamdemon clung onto life using the dispair of the Dark Seed children, the Chosen Children encouraged them by having them share their dreams, and Daisuke shared his dream of owning a ramen cart. The light of his Digivice was used again to power up Imperialdramon Fighter Mode's Giga Death cannon.

Digimon Adventure 02: Diablomon Strikes Back
Three years after the events of Our War Game, the evil Diablomon resumed his reign of terror on the Internet. Daisuke was on his way to soccer practice when Koushiro contacted him to fill him in on the situation but on the way, he met some kids who confused him with talk of jellyfish, not knowing that the Kuramon were Realizing via e-mail. While Taichi, Yamato and their Digimon entered cyberspace to battle Diablomon once more, Daisuke and Ken had to track down the Kuramon. But when Daisuke learned that Hikari, Takeru and their Digimon had gone to help their big brothers and Omegamon, he demanded that he should go as well. However, his urge to get in was all part of Diablomon's revenge plan - as the entire Kuramon swarm emerged from the gate before heading to the Rainbow Bridge at Tokyo Harbor to merge into Armagemon. After Imperialdramon managed to destroy the monster by changing to Imperialdramon Paladin Mode with help of Omegamon, the Chosen Children used their Digivices, along with the spectators' cellphones, to capture the Kuramon.

25 Years Later
By the year 2027, Daisuke achieved his dream to open his own noodle cart which became a huge success, developing into a successful restaurant chain. His entrepreneurship earned him a place on magazine covers around the globe. He is married and has one son, who has inherited Taichi's goggles and has a Chibimon.

Digimon Adventure 02: Hurricane Touchdown
In this non-canon adventure, Daisuke went to the United States with the other Chosen Children to help Hikari and Takeru. On the way, they met Wallace, a Chosen Child from Colorado, whose rogue Digimon partner Chocomon was the cause of the problems. During the battle with Cherubimon, Daisuke used the Digimental of Miracles, temporarily recreated by Seraphimon and Holydramon, so Magnamon could help Rapidmon defeat Cherubimon and end his pain.

Digimon 02: Michi e no Armor Shinka
In an attempt to get some Valentine's Day chocolate from the girls, Daisuke tried to change his image to one the girls adored. He first tried to impersonate Yamato, but he wasn't good at playing bass. He then posed as Koushiro, but his way of "fixing" computers annoyed Koushiro. Daisuke eventually decided to use Ken's Digimon Kaiser persona, as girls seem to like the "bad boy" look. Problem was, as the girls' Digimon had it, Daisuke was all talk so V-mon yelled at him to take extreme measures to be super-bad. It took Ken's convincing and the power of Pucchiemon to stop Daisuke from reluctantly beating up V-mon to get into character. When Pukumon entered the scene with a Dark Tower, Jou got knocked into the 02 gang and Daisuke ended up with Takeru's D-Terminal, allowing V-mon to Armor Evolve to Sagittarimon. Despite learning an important lesson from the ordeal, he still envied the fact he has no girls going ga-ga over him.

Digimon Adventure 02: Doors to Summer (Natsu e no Tobira)
The second 02 drama takes place in the summer of 2003, following Hurricane Touchdown/The Golden Digimentals. Daisuke, who was having a particularly bad summer, and V-mon, who was quite insensitive to the whole thing, went to America to visit Mimi and Wallace. They ended up in a strange dimension, which resembled New York City in winter time. In the cold weather, they encountered a strange girl, who took immediate affections to Daisuke. During introductions, she said that she was nameless so Daisuke gave her the name "Na-chan".

But when Na-chan turned out to be a Digimon, she was forced by the "fireflies" to transform into a large roaring creature. The others tried to stop Daisuke from going to her but Daisuke said that she was just lonely and wants a partner. But Na-chan destroyed herself to protect him. Daisuke was a bit saddened but Chibimon gave a healthy reminder that he's Daisuke's partner as they find her DigiTama.

Wallace and Mimi indicated that the winter was the result of Na-chan's solitude mixing with Daisuke's regrets, such examples being his loss at the district soccer competition and his unrequited love for Hikari. In a way, Na-chan was taking Hikari's place as the object of Daisuke's affection, though she knew it wasn't meant to be.

Digimon Adventure V-Tamer 01
During one of his battles, he and the other 02 Chosen Children encountered Parallelmon, who absorbed Hikari, Takeru, Miyako and Iori as he inadvertently sent Daisuke into the V-Tamer continity where he met the Taichi of that series. After Daisuke made his peace with Taichi, the two worked together to save the others and defeat Parallelmon. With the monster destroyed, Daisuke and his friends returned to their continuity. }}
