There are other worlds out there. Digital, Organic, worlds where our dreams come true...
Digimon Tamers takes place on an Earth where Digimon is a media icon. Card games and TV shows ARE Digimon. At least, that's what people think. A secret government organization has found another world, and its digital inhabitants are crossing over. Digimon run amok throughout Japan and three children with Digimon partners are out to stop them, learning important lessons along the way.
==Overview==
According to Chiaki J. Konaka, the story-line of early episodes of Digimon Tamers was based on "Konaka Gamera", one of the original scripts for in 1996, by Chiaki and Kazuya Konaka before the final script by . Konaka brothers' draft was later adopted for Digimon Tamers and in 2006, and in 1996.Chiaki J. Konaka, 2018年, という事をここに書いているのは、以前にも書いたけれど、テイマーズの1～3話は設定などは全然違うものの、小中兄弟版ガメラのエッセンスが濃厚に入っている。だからもしこの映画が成立していたら、テイマーズは生まれなかったとも言える。, TwitterEiga Hiho (映画秘宝), 2021, Vol.AprilHeisei Gamera Perfection (平成ガメラ パーフェクション), 2014, p.237, KADOKAWA/

 	Ai and Makoto are both the partners of Impmon. For some reason, they didn't receive a D-Ark at first. Due to their young age, they did not understand the implications of having a Digimon partner, and treated Impmon like a toy to be played with, arguing over him and pulling him around like a ragdoll. Impmon was finally fed up with their immature behavior and left. His experiences with Ai and Makoto shaped his opinions on humans and Digimon who have Tamers.
