Later when Ultraman Taro awoke, having recovered from his wounds, he found himself in a cage with Tomoya sitting in front of him. When asked who he was, he showed a Dummy Spark and declared he was the owner of Jean Killer while revealed to be inside the robot itself.
As Jean Killer, Tomoya made his first move when Hikaru/Ginga finally purified Ragon/Chigusa from the Dark Dummy Spark. He started his attack by brutally firing at Ginga while at the same time studying the Ultra's time limit of three minutes. Before Ginga reverted back to Hikaru, Jean Killer retreated.
Later, Tomoya and Alien Valky decided to use the corrupted Kenta to destroy Hikaru. He first baited Hikaru with Taro into Jean Killer to make him believe Kenta was Jean Killer's host. However, when the plan failed, he challenged Hikaru to a fight where he used Doragory followed by Ultraman Ginga. When both of them were falling from space, Ginga reverted back into his Spark Doll form due to the time limit, leaving Hikaru falling until he was saved by Jean-Killer himself. Shocked by this, Dark Lugiel sent Tiga Dark to destroy both Hikaru and Tomoya, revealing Tomoya's secret to Hikaru.
When Tiga Dark unleashed his energy blast again, Taro quickly teleported the three of them to the school. All of Hikaru's friends were in disbelief that Tomoya was Jean Killer. He revealed that he told his father that he would follow his footsteps as an adult but only to be scholded. Taro approached Tomoya and revealed that he also had a similar experience as a child. Hikaru felt bad about him and decided to give him a dream: to defeat Ultraman Ginga. Tomoya agreed and summoned Jean Killer while Hikaru transform into Ultraman Ginga and fought.
He defeated the giant robot with relative ease by phasing his hand into the cockpit and crushed the Dark Dummy Spark with his own hand. Due to this, Tiga Dark appeared and eventually enlarged Alien Valky and the duo began to overpower the Ultra. Tomoya saw that his dream would be crushed and shed tears, causing the Gunpad to appear and Jean Killer, now Jean Nine assisted Ginga with fighting the villains. After the battle, Ginga spoke for the first time about Jean-Nine actions and Tomoya's conviction though he didn't answer Taro's questions. Tomoya leaves as he finally accepts Hikaru's friendship while reminded that he will surpass Hikaru/Ginga.
In the second arc of the series, Tomoya started to assist Hikaru though mostly seen in civilian rather than Jean-nine. After Dark Lugiel finally arose, Tomoya was rendered helpless due to Jean-nine still on maintenance and Ginga easily defeated after his rise interrupted. However, just when all seemed to be lost, multiple Ginga Light Sparks appeared in everyone's hands and Ultralived Taro, regain his full size and rose to challenge Dark Lugiel before channeling all of his energy to revive Ginga, resulting in Taro being defeated by Dark Lugiel. The villain was shocked to see Ginga revived again. The two then transform their Sparks into an energy ance and took their battle to the moon, with Ginga won. After Dark Lugiel was defeated, all of the Spark Dolls are presumed to have returned to their universe. A fully repaired Jean-nine thanked Tomoya and departed with Ginga as he and all of his friends celebrated their victory.
Ultraman Ginga S
Two years later, Tomoya joined the UPG after a global alert of countless monsters. He is in charge of researching the Mysterious Stone “Victorium” in his “Ichijouji Lab”. After Hikaru joined in too, he decided to secure Hikaru's secret as Ultraman Ginga from his teammates. Later, when Android One Zero raided the UPG Live Base, Arisa Sugita managed to knocked her and Tomoya successfully disarm the robot's Zetton Bomb via his Gunpad. In the final of the series' first half, he came up with a plan to use Shepardon to revive Ginga and Victory after the duo Ultra killed by Five King.
