Takato Matsuki, known in Japan as Takato Matsuda (松田 啓人, Matsuda Takato^?), is a cheerful, happy, carefree person and the main protagonist of the Digimon Tamers who is the only child of a family that runs their very own bakery. He loves Digimon, playing the Digimon card game and drawing up Digimon he made up. He eventually finds a Blue Card among his cards and unknowingly used it to bring Guilmon to life. Soon after, he meets Henry and then Rika, learning that Digimon are mysteriously appearing in their world. At first he's not very good at battling, but he improves over time. Because Guilmon was a product of his imagination, Takato appears to empathic with his Digimon and thus the two influence each other in their fights. This bond is later augmented when Guilmon gains the ability to become Gallantmon when Takato Biomerges into him. He generally has feelings for Jeri Katou throughout the series, and confesses in episode 41.

Guilmon (ギルモン, Girumon^?) is a viral raptor-like Digimon who bares the Digital hazard mark on his chest. Guilmon was created by Takato as a drawing and was brought to life soon after by the Blue Card which the Digignomes secretly placed among Takato's card deck. Though a rookie, Guilmon originally has the mentality of a child and was unaware of the differences between humans and Digimon, often calling his partner Tamer "Takatomon" and loving to eat the Matsuki Bakery's bread. After some misadventures, Takato hides his partner in a shed in Shinjuku Park, and Guilmon matures enough to be able to speak normally and play with Takato's classmates.
