Takato Matsuki

Takato Matsuki (松田 啓人タカト Matsuda Takato) is a fictional character in the Digimon Tamers series and one of its three main protagonists. He is the Tamer of Guilmon and his creator.

Appearance
Takato is a young boy with light skin, light brown hair and light red eyes. He usually wears a blue hooded shirt over a white t-shirt, with long gray shorts, yellow wristbands on his hands, and green converse sneakers. He usually wears yellow goggles over his forehead, but can be seen occasionally without them.

His pajamas consist of a pale yellow button-up shirt and pants. In winter, he sometimes wears a light brown coat with large pockets and brown buttons over his regular outfit.

Description
For all intents and purposes, Takato is a very normal boy. He is a cheerful and carefree person who loves Digimon, the Digimon card game, and drawing. He is a gentle, sensitive and true to his feelings, which makes him very emotive. He is a very imaginative and creative person, which is the reason he made Guilmon up, though his imagination often gets the best of him. He is inexperienced as a Tamer, but makes up for it with his enthusiasm and his honest love for Digimon. Takato cares deeply for others, and when he is thrust into situations where people's lives are at stake, he treats the situation with appropriate seriousness and does his best to help out. However, he is easily upset when he thinks he has failed to protect his loves ones; he cries when he thinks he has been a bad Tamer to Guilmon, and is sent into rage when Leomon is killed. As Takato gains experience, he is able to control his feelings better, and his perception of the enemy changes, judging the opponents by their actions rather than instantly thinking of them as "bad guys".

Takato is an only child. His parents run their own bakery, and the family lives in an apartment right above it. He sometimes helps out in the bakery, so he knows how to make bread. He has a grandfather and cousin, Wataru and Kai Urazoe, who live in Okinawa.

Takato has a crush on Jeri Katou, which he openly admits twice throughout the series.
