Takuya Kanbara

300px|thumb|right|Character Song:Salamander Takuya Kanbara is the main character in the Digimon anime series "Digimon Frontier". In this series, a group of chosen human children are given the ability to turn into digimon. Takuya is the leader of this group, and is given the Spirits of Fire at the beginning of the series.

Description
Takuya's story starts when he receives a mysterious SMS message on his mobile phone one afternoon. The message instructs him to go to a subway station, where a Trailmon took him and four other human children into the Digital World.

Takuya begins the series as a typical "goggle boy" - energetic and athletic, but tending to act without thinking and very stubborn. He has a strong sense of justice, and tries to use his power to do what he believes is right. His hot-headed personality often leads to him arguing with Koji Minamoto, another of Digimon Frontier's main characters, however they learn to respect each other toward the middle of the series, after their first encounter with Duskmon, and become good friends and partners in battle. He acts like an older brother to Tommy Himi, who reminds him of his real brother Shinya.

In Episode 2, it is revealed that Takuya's birthday is in August and that he is 3 months younger than Zoe.

Takuya also makes an appearance in a special chapter of the Digimon manga Digimon Adventure V-Tamer 01, where he teams up with Taichi Yagami to fight Metamormon, and in Digimon Battle Spirit 2 as a battler.

Digimon Forms
Takuya wields AncientGreymon's power through the Spirits of Fire. In Digimon Battle Spirit 2, Takuya can become AncientGreymon himself as a "finishing" move. If Agunimon fills up his power meter, he can warp digivolve into AncientGreymon and fire a massive fireball at his opponent.

Flamemon


Flamemon, known as Flamon in the Japanese version, is Agunimon and BurningGreymon's rookie form. When Takuya returns to the human world after his first encounter with Duskmon, he becomes this half-beast half-human Digimon named Flamemon. In this form, he could not utilize his true power because his fighting spirit had been destroyed. However, after watching himself while in the past, he overcame his fear and returned to the Digital World as Agunimon.



Agunimon


This is the digimon form that Takuya becomes when he uses the Human Spirit of Fire. The name "Agunimon" comes from "Agni", the Hindu god of fire.

Agunimon, known as Agnimon in the Japanese version, appears in the very first episode of Digimon Frontier, when Takuya first finds and uses the Human Spirit of Fire. Takuya was the first human to assume a Digimon form and in his first battle defeated Ultimate leveled digimon Cerberumon. Takuya continues to use this form in many other battles against the evil members of the Legendary Warriors. Later, when Takuya gains the ability to assume more powerful forms, this form is used less and less in battle.

Takuya fights in this form in Digimon Battle Spirit 2.

Attacks
 * Pyro Punch (Burning Salamander): Releases a flame dragon from his fists.
 * Pyro Darts (Fire Darts): Throws small bits of fire at his target from his gauntlet.
 * Pyro Tornado (Salamander Break): Uses a fiery tornado to spin himself around quickly, and then strikes the enemy with a roundhouse kick.
 * Fire Dash : This attack can only be seen in Digimon Rumble Arena 2. This allows Agunimon to run towards his enemy with great force.

BurningGreymon


BurningGreymon, known as Vritramon in the Japanese version, is the form Takuya assumes when he uses the Beast Spirit of Fire. Takuya first obtained this Spirit from a Shamanmon, who had been possessed by the spirit's wild power. At first, Takuya also had problems controlling this Beast Spirit, and even attempted to destroy the other Digidestined with its power. He almost deleted Tommy Himi in this form until a tear drop from Tommy landed on his eye. It wasn't until Gigasmon kidnapped Tommy that Takuya gained the courage to use his beast spirit's power to defeat Gigasmon.

This is Takuya's digivolution in Digimon Battle Spirit 2.

Attacks
 * Pyro Barrage (Corona Blaster): BurningGreymon fires a solar heatwave laser from the "Rudori Tarpana" cannons on his arms.
 * Wildfire Tsunami (Flame Storm): BurningGreymon surrounds himself in a fiery aura which he then releases in waves.
 * Fire Below: This attack is only seen in Digimon Rumble Arena 2.  This makes BurningGreymon jump into the air while flapping his wings, firing rapid small blasts from his Rudori Tarpana cannons. It does a lot of damage and up to 12 hits.

Aldamon


By combining the Human and Beast Spirits of Fire, Takuya can become Aldamon, known as Ardhamon in the Japanese version. Many of Agunimon and BurningGreymon's features can be recognized in Aldamon. Takuya obtains the power to combine his two spirits when he received energy from Seraphimon's Digi-Egg during his fight with ShadowSeraphimon.

Attacks
 * Atomic Inferno (Brahma Sutra): The cannons on Aldamon's hands release thousands of rocketing fireball missiles at the enemy.
 * Solar Wind Destroyer (Brahma Shil): Aldamon raises his hands in the air and gathers energy into a dense fire ball which he hurls towards the enemy.

EmperorGreymon


Takuya attains this form when he Unifies the Spirits of Flame, Ice, Wind, Earth and Wood. EmperorGreymon, known as KaiserGreymon in the Japanese version, looks similar to WarGreymon from Digimon Adventure. Takuya first becomes EmperorGreymon when he and Koji Minamoto are fighting against the corrupted Cherubimon at the Rose Morning Star. EmperorGreymon delivers the final blow to Cherubimon after he impales him in the forehead with his sword. He also fights Dynasmon many times in this form.

The sword EmperorGreymon wields is called the "Dragon Soul Sword" (龍魂剣).

Attacks
 * Dragonfire Crossbow (炎龍撃): Gathers energy to his sword and forms a crossbow-like weapon. He then fires a massive burst of fire which causes an atomic-like explosion.
 * Pyro Dragons (九頭龍陣): Drives his "Dragon Soul Sword" into the ground and generates nine fiery dragons that he sends at his target.
