Koichi Kimura

In the Digimon Frontier series, Koichi Kimura (Spelled "Kouichi" in the Japanese Version) was the final member to join the team. He is chosen to wield the Spirits of Darkness that hold AncientSphinxmon's power.

He is Koji Minamoto's older twin brother. Their parents divorced when they were very young, so they hardly knew about each other. Koichi learns about Koji when his grandmother tells him on her deathbed. He runs after Koji, who is on his way to the Digital World, to try and catch up with him but he falls down a flight of stairs and ends up in a coma as a result. His mind is taken into the Digital World by Cherubimon, who can see his sadness. He erases Koichi's memories and gives him the Human Spirit of Darkness to give him a semi-physical form as Duskmon until he is freed from Cherubimon's control. After this, he wields the purified Spirits of Darkness and fights alongside his brother and the other DigiDestined.

Later on, Koichi begins to realize that, in reality, his mind isn't truly in the Digital World. On multiple occasions, the DigiDestined are seriously injured, revealing their Fractal Code (Digi-Code in Japan). However, each time Koichi is far-less hurt and reveals no Fractal Code. Crusadermon informs that he is only a ghost within the Digital World and this troubles him towards the end of the series. As the final battles with Lucemon ensue, Koichi sacrifices himself to save the other DigiDestined, giving his spirits of darkness to his brother, Koji. The powers of light and darkness begin to react within Koji's body, helping trigger Koji and Takuya's final evolution into Susanoomon. In the finale episode it is revealed by Lowemon that Koichi is still alive but is badly hurt. In the end the other DigiDestined D-Tectors Digivices were able to bring him out of his coma.

Koichi was voiced by Kenichi Suzumura (Japan) and Crispin Freeman (US).

Digimon Forms (Tainted)
As Duskmon, Koichi has no memory of his past until he almost kills Koji during their first two confrontations. Hearing Koji's name being said over and over gives Duskmon great pain. After this, Duskmon fights Koji in order to learn the connection between them. Cherubimon gives him his Beast Spirit to become Velgemon but Ophanimon restores Koichi's memories, freeing him from his Spirits' control.

Duskmon
One of Cherubimon's evil warriors, Duskmon can transform other Digimon's regret into dark energy. An expert swordsman with the blades he can extend from his forearms, the source of his power is sealed in his armor's three necks and seven eyeballs.

Attacks

 * Geist Abend (Spirit Evening) (English: Deadly Gaze): Projects energy beams from his hands and the assorted eyeball-like protrusions over his body.


 * Eroberung (Lunar Plasma): He raises and lowers his swords forming a red moon and then rushes at his enemy, slicing them.

Velgemon
Cherubimon gives Duskmon the Beast Spirit of Darkness to 'free' him from his humanity. From his appearance, he is called "The Devourer of the Dead". Duskmon hates changing into this ugly form unless it is necessary. He is so powerful that only a combination of Aldamon and Beowolfmon is powerful enough to stand up to him.

Using the Human Spirit of Darkness, Koichi becomes this majin Digimon. Strongly holding the power of AncientSphinxmon, he wields the ancient Digimon's tail and head as his spear which is known as the Spear of Conviction and his Sphinx Guard Shield.
