content

The sporty and kind-hearted boy Taiki Kudō ( 工藤 タ イ キ ) hears a strange melody and soft calls for help one afternoon. When he replies, the Digimon Xros Loader appears and he and his friends Akari Hinomoto ( 陽 ノ 本 ア カ リ ) and Zenjiro Tsurugi ( 剣 ゼ ン ジ ロ ウ ) are drawn into the world of Digimon. There they see an army attacking a village. Shoutmon had called for help and together with Taiki succeeded in repelling the army by merging with the Xros Loader Digimon, a so-called Digi Xros .

The army belongs to the Bagra Empire, which wants to conquer the whole Digiworld. From then on, Taiki, his friends and their Digimon fight against the army of Bagramon.

One year after the victory over Bargamon, the Taiki and a friend named Taigiru discovered a world between the Digiworld and the human world, the DigiQuartz. They receive the Xros Loader from a mysterious old man (who later turns out to be Bargamon, but is now on the side of the people). He also tells them that the remaining power of Bargamon has mixed with the digital power of the human world and so the Quartzmon was created, which wants to transform the human world into DigiQuartz and thus wipe out humanity, and it is now the task of the team stop it. Since the strength of Taiki and his friends is not enough, the mysterious man gets help from parallel worlds that the viewer knows from the other Digimon series. Together with the power of Omnimon, Imperialdramon, Gallantmon, Sussanoomon and Shinegreymon can finally defeat Taigiru and Gundramon.
