STORY

Takuma and friends visit a shrine related to the “Beast Gods” legend. The fog-covered shrine had an otherwordly, suspicious air floating about it. They separate to explore the shrine, and a suspicious monster emerges from the bushes, to approach Takuma.

Calling himself Koromon, he tells Takuma that he feels like he already knows him. Takuma has no time to be perplexed by Koromon, when he hears a scream from his friends. At the scene, he finds his friends attacked by monsters unlike Koromon, and the fog is also surrounding the boys desperately trying to escape…

With Agumon’s power, who evolved from Koromon, manages to repel the monsters that attacked him. He reunites with Minoru and Aoi and return to the school building where their camp is located. The appearance of the school building surprises them, as it looks to be covered in vegetation and deteriorated over time. Could this really be the school they were staying at? Did they slip through time, or are they lost in another world?

They hear Ryou’s scream coming from the school building. A new crisis has now swooped down on the children!
