It is soon revealed that Yuu is actually a willing partner to DarkKnightmon, and the true General of the Twilight army.

He cares greatly for even the smallest forms of life, like a butterfly, and hates bringing anyone to harm. However, when DarkKnightmon opens a portal to the Digital World for Yuu and claims to be taking him to a world where nothing really dies or gets hurt, Yuu feels that he can act without remorse, as he isn't really hurting anything.

Because he thinks there are no consequences, Yuu treated the Digital World like a game and acted without regard to the safety of anyone in it.

After the battle, he sees the four students going home.

When their teacher asks Tagiru to deliver a printout to Tokio Hinoki, who was absent from class that day, Tagiru tries to get rid of the duty by challenging Yuu to a rock-paper-scissors, which Yuu wins. After Mikey shows up, the three go together, and Mikey comments that other members of the Robot Club have also been absent from class. Arriving at Tokio's house, the Xros Heart's statement that Tokio missed the class confuses Mrs. Hinoki, who claims the boy left to school that morning.
