Archnemon and Mummymon attack a bunch of Mojyamon in order to interrogate them on where the next Holy Point is, but Paildramon and Silphymon intervene, with the kids having told the Mojyamon to keep quiet. [=BlackWarGreymon=] arrives and quickly finds the Holy Stone, and despite Paildramon’s attempts to stop him, he successfully destroys it, causing the chained Digimon to once again appear and disappear. [=BlackWarGreymon=] moves on to destroy the next Holy Stone with Archnemon and Mummymon at his tail, and the kids flee the area, which is now falling apart.

As they return home, they wonder how they can defeat [=BlackWarGreymon=], and Takeru says that it’s unforgivable to create a sad life with the power of darkness. Ken takes his leave, but before he departs, Daisuke invites him to have dinner at his house in order to hold a meeting for what they should do to defeat [=BlackWarGreymon=]. Ken says that he also wants to defeat [=BlackWarGreymon=] and can’t forgive Archnemon, and agrees to call his mother to get permission. Hikari and Miyako also agree to meet up with Daisuke and Ken for dinner, while Takeru and Iori decline.

Ken calls his mother to get permission to go to dinner at Daisuke’s place, and Ken’s mother, happy to know that Ken has friends, gives her permission and hangs up, beginning to cry. Ken arrives at the Motomiya household to find Daisuke’s mother and Jun fangirling over him, and Daisuke is forced to awkwardly steer himself and Ken over to his room.

Iori visits Yamato after Yamato’s band practice and asks him about Takeru, including [[Recap/DigimonAdventure02E19AnOldEnemyReturns his outburst of anger when the Digimon Kaiser had made Chimeramon]]. Iori tells Yamato that Takeru is unable to forgive Archnemon for having created [=BlackWarGreymon=], and asks if something had happened in the past. Yamato tells Iori about the 1999 Chosen’s [[Recap/DigimonAdventureE8EvilShowsHisFace battle with Devimon]] and Angemon’s resulting death, and how it had left a mark on the young Takeru. Iori remembers that [[Recap/DigimonAdventure02E21TheCrestOfKindness Ken had also seen Wormmon die]], and Yamato says that both Ken and Takeru have gone through the same feeling of having lost their partners, causing both of them to have a shared hatred of those who try to make life with the powers of darkness.

After Iori thanks Yamato and walks home with Upamon, he wonders if they really do have to kill [=BlackWarGreymon=], still knowing that [=BlackWarGreymon=] has a soul, but Upamon tells Iori that he’s too kind. Yamato calls Takeru and tells him about his conversation with Iori, and Takeru wonders why Iori hadn’t just asked him upfront but, as he sees Iori returning to their building complex, smiles and decides that it’s just like Iori to do this kind of thing.

Hikari, Miyako, Ken, and Daisuke discuss how they’re going to protect the remaining Holy Points, and they decide to go to the Digital World to get some allies to help them out in battle. Leafmon tells Ken that having friends is great, which Ken agrees to.

[=BlackWarGreymon=] continues to search the Digital World for the next Holy Point, despite Archnemon and Mummymon’s attempts to get him to calm down. [=BlackWarGreymon=] begins to feel the presence of a Holy Stone and follows it.

Ken wakes up the next morning at Daisuke’s house, having slept over for the night. Daisuke gets a call from Hikari telling him that Ikkakumon has found the next Holy Stone under the water, but [=BlackWarGreymon=] is on the way there as well. The kids hurry there, with Iori going to find the Holy Stone underwater with Submarimon while the other kids protect the area. [[Recap/DigimonAdventure02E16TwentyThousandDigiLeaguesUnderTheSea MegaSeadramon]] and some Rukamon[[note]]Dolphmon[[/note]] also arrive to assist.

As [=BlackWarGreymon=] approaches, XV-mon and Stingmon Jogress evolve to Paildramon and Tailmon and Aquilamon Jogress evolve to Silphymon. Paildramon, Silphymon, and Angemon attempt to attack together to ward [=BlackWarGreymon=] off, but he wards them off and goes into the water to try and get to the Holy Stone. Submarimon and Ikkakumon successfully blast him out of the water and back to Paildramon and Silphymon. Unfortunately, [=BlackWarGreymon=] manages to [[PartingTheSea split the waters apart]] in one attack, allowing him to get to the Holy Stone.

Iori intervenes and tries to reason with [=BlackWarGreymon=], asking him to stop destroying the Holy Stones if he has a soul. [=BlackWarGreymon=] refuses to listen. Iori refuses to move between [=BlackWarGreymon=] and the Holy Stone, saying that he can’t fight someone who has a soul, and even though [=BlackWarGreymon=] briefly remembers [[Recap/DigimonAdventure02E32IfIOnlyHadAHeart the flower he tried to save]] and briefly hesitates, he goes ahead and destroys the Holy Stone with Angemon pulling Iori and Armadimon out of the way and to safety.

After the kids return home, Takeru and Iori spend some time at the beach, and Upamon asks Iori if it’s bad for Digimon to come to the human world. Iori says that they need to prevent it, to which Upamon laments that he’s a Digimon too, to which Iori responds that he wishes that all Digimon were like Upamon. Takeru tells Iori that there isn’t necessarily good or evil to a life, and that all life is beautiful by existing.

!!Tropes
* PartingTheSea: In order to reach the Holy Stone that is underwater, [=BlackWarGreymon=] blasts a path through the ocean to it. The dub even has Daisuke ask if he thought he was Moses, which is a surprising move considering the dub usually goes out of its way to avoid religious references.
* SixthRanger: The meeting at Daisuke's house is arguably where Ken can be said to actually join the group. Prior to this episode, whenever Ken had fought along the others, he had just happened to be around in the area or had been alerted to Archnemon's location via someone sending him an email about it and had joined in due to their common enemy. [[Recap/DigimonAdventure02E36SteelAngelShakkoumon The episode after this one]] has Ken send them an email actively apologizing that he'll be late and will meet up with them later, meaning that he now considers them as fellow team members whom he works alongside.

Takeru's statement about how all life is important is actually consistent with his attitude in the prior episode. It's because he values life that he's willing to kill Black War Greymon, because otherwise countless of lives will be lost. It's not something he's happy about, but he sees it as a necessary evil. Also, Takeru hating those who try to create life with the powers of darkness also fits with his previous attitude of hating those who use said powers to make others suffer. Takeru states how he hates those who use the powers of darkness to create sad lives, which falls under making others suffer. Using the powers of darkness to try and take over the world also fits under making others suffer. Takeru does not hate Black War Greymon; he hates Archnemon, as Iori states to Yamato. Takeru's intense anger towards Archnemon starts as early as the end of E29, after Archnemon reveals her motivation is destruction for destruction's sake. There's nothing inconsistent with Takeru's statements, behavior, and attitudes.


* DependingOnTheWriter: Takeru makes a statement about how all life is important, which is ''completely opposite'' to his behavior in [[{{Recap/DigimonAdventure02E34DefendTheHolyPoint}} the prior episode]] about how he was totally willing to kill [=BlackWarGreymon=]. His general attitude is different too; this time he hates those who try to create life with the powers of darkness, rather than those who use said powers to try and take over the world or make others suffer.

Ken wakes up the next morning at Daisuke’s house, having slept over for the night. Daisuke gets a call from Hikari telling him that Ikkakumon has found the next Holy Stone under the water, but [=BlackWarGreymon=] is on the way there as well.

* SixthRanger: The meeting at Daisuke's house is arguably where Ken can be said to actually join the group. Prior to this episode, whenever Ken had fought along the others, he had just happened to be around in the area or had been alerted to Archnemon's location via someone sending him an email about it and had joined in due to their common enemy. [[{{Recap/DigimonAdventure02E36SteelAngelShakkoumon}} The episode after this one]] has Ken send them an email actively apologizing that he'll be late and will meet up with them later, meaning that he now considers them as fellow team members that he works alongside.

* MercyKill: Takeru’s specific dialogue in this episode carries the implication that he views killing [=BlackWarGreymon=] more as this than just killing a Digimon carrying the powers of darkness for the sake of it. While he hates those that increase the powers of darkness, he seems to be more angry at Archnemon for having created [=BlackWarGreymon=]’s “sad life”, and thus believes that [=BlackWarGreymon=] should not be alive for this reason. It seems, however, that he’s changed his tune by the end of the episode thanks to Iori.

* MercyKill: Takeru’s specific dialogue DependingOnTheWriter: Takeru makes a statement about how all life is important, which is ''completely opposite'' to his behavior in [[{{Recap/DigimonAdventure02E34DefendTheHolyPoint}} the prior episode]] about how he was totally willing to kill [=BlackWarGreymon=].

Archnemon and Mummymon attack a bunch of Mojyamon in order to interrogate them on where the next Holy Point is, but Paildramon and Silphymon intervene, with the kids having told the Mojyamon to keep quiet. [=BlackWarGreymon=] arrives and quickly finds the Holy Stone, and despite Paildramon’s attempts to stop him, he successfully destroys it, causing the chained Digimon to once again appear and disappear. [=BlackWarGreymon=] moves on to destroy the next Holy Stone with Archnemon and Mummymon at his tail, and the kids flee the area, which is now falling apart.

As they return home, they wonder how they can defeat [=BlackWarGreymon=], and Takeru says that it’s unforgivable to create a sad life with the power of darkness. Ken takes his leave, but before he departs, Daisuke invites him to have dinner at his house in order to hold a meeting for what they should do to defeat [=BlackWarGreymon=]. Ken says that he also wants to defeat [=BlackWarGreymon=] and can’t forgive Archnemon, and agrees to call his mother to get permission. Hikari and Miyako also agree to meet up with Daisuke and Ken for dinner, while Takeru and Iori decline.

Ken calls his mother to get permission to go to dinner at Daisuke’s place, and Ken’s mother, happy to know that Ken has friends, gives her permission and hangs up, beginning to cry. Ken arrives at the Motomiya household to find Daisuke’s mother and Jun fangirling over him, and Daisuke is forced to awkwardly steer himself and Ken over to his room.

Iori visits Yamato after Yamato’s band practice and asks him about Takeru, including [[{{Recap/DigimonAdventure02E19CompositeMonsterChimeramon}} his outburst of anger when the Digimon Kaiser had made Chimeramon]]. Iori tells Yamato that Takeru is unable to forgive Archnemon for having created [=BlackWarGreymon=], and asks if something had happened in the past. Yamato tells Iori about the 1999 Chosen’s [[{{Recap/DigimonAdventureE8DevimonTheEmissaryOfDarkness}} battle with Devimon]] and Angemon’s resulting death, and how it had left a mark on the young Takeru. Iori remembers that [[{{Recap/DigimonAdventure02E21GoodbyeKen}} Ken had also seen Wormmon die]], and Yamato says that both Ken and Takeru have gone through the same feeling of having lost their partners, causing both of them to have a shared hatred of those who try to make life with the powers of darkness.

After Iori thanks Yamato and walks home with Upamon, he wonders if they really do have to kill [=BlackWarGreymon=], still knowing that [=BlackWarGreymon=] has a soul, but Upamon tells Iori that he’s too kind. Yamato calls Takeru and tells him about his conversation with Iori, and Takeru wonders why Iori hadn’t just asked him upfront but, as he sees Iori returning to their building complex, smiles and decides that it’s just like Iori to do this kind of thing.

Hikari, Miyako, Ken, and Daisuke discuss how they’re going to protect the remaining Holy Points, and they decide to go to the Digital World to get some allies to help them out in battle. Leafmon tells Ken that having friends is great, which Ken agrees to.

[=BlackWarGreymon=] continues to search the Digital World for the next Holy Point, despite Archnemon and Mummymon’s attempts to get him to calm down. [=BlackWarGreymon=] begins to feel the presence of a Holy Stone and follows it.

Ken wakes up the next morning at Daisuke’s house, having slept over for the night. Daisuke gets a call from Hikari telling him that Ikkakumon has found the next Holy Stone under the water, but [=BlackWarGreymon=] is on the way there as well. The kids hurry there, with Iori going to find the Holy Stone underwater with Submarimon while the other kids protect the area. [[{{Recap/DigimonAdventure02E16SubmarimonsEscapeFromTheBottomOfTheSea}} MegaSeadramon]] and some Rukamon[[hottip:* :Dolphmon]] also arrive to assist.

As [=BlackWarGreymon=], XV-mon and Stingmon Jogress evolve to Paildramon and Tailmon and Aquilamon Jogress evolve to Silphymon. Paildramon, Silphymon, and Angemon attempt to attack together to ward [=BlackWarGreymon=] off, but he wards them off and goes into the water to try and get to the Holy Stone. Submarimon and Ikkakumon successfully blast him out of the water and back to Paildramon and Silphymon. Unfortunately, [=BlackWarGreymon=] manages to split the waters apart in one attack, allowing him to get to the Holy Stone.

Iori intervenes and tries to reason with [=BlackWarGreymon=], asking him to stop destroying the Holy Stones if he has a soul. [=BlackWarGreymon=] refuses to listen. Iori refuses to move between [=BlackWarGreymon=] and the Holy Stone, saying that he can’t fight someone who has a soul, and even though [=BlackWarGreymon=] briefly remembers [[{{Recap/DigimonAdventure02E32MysteriousRuinHolyStone}} the flower he tried to save]] and briefly hesitates, he goes ahead and destroys the Holy Stone with Angemon pulling Iori and Armadimon out of the way and to safety.

After the kids return home, Takeru and Iori spend some time at the beach, and Upamon asks Iori if it’s bad for Digimon to come to the human world. Iori says that they need to prevent it, to which Upamon laments that he’s a Digimon too, to which Iori responds that he wishes that all Digimon were like Upamon. Takeru tells Iori that there isn’t necessarily good or evil to a life, and that all life is beautiful by existing.
