Q1: Does a "may digivolve this card as if the Tamer is a Digimon" effect also treat the Tamer that will become a digivolution card as a Digimon when it digivolves?
Yes, it also treats the Tamer as a Digimon when it digivolves. It treats it as a Digimon that digivolves, therefore "when a Digimon would digivolve" effects and "when a Digimon digivolves" effects will trigger. In addition, if a "Digimon can't digivolve" effect activates, digivolution won't be possible using this effect that also treats the Tamer as a Digimon.
Q2: When using the Koji Minamoto: Cost 2 digivolution requirement to digivolve, can I use a "may digivolve this card as if the Tamer is a Digimon" effect to treat that Koji Minamoto as a Digimon for digivolving?
Yes, you can. If you do, it's treated as a Digimon that digivolves, therefore "when a Digimon would digivolve" effects and "when a Digimon digivolves" effects will trigger. In addition, if a "Digimon can't digivolve" effect activates, it won't be possible to use this effect to treat that Tamer as a Digimon.
Q3: Is a digivolution bonus draw performed even when a Tamer digivolves?
Yes, you perform a digivolution bonus draw. A digivolution bonus draw is performed for any kind of digivolution.
Q4: If this card digivolves from a Tamer that was played this turn, can it attack in the same turn?
No, it can't. Even if a card digivolves from a card that was placed on the field in the same turn, it can't attack during that turn. It can only attack in the turns after it's played.
Q5: Does a Tamer card placed under a Digimon become a digivolution card?
Yes, it becomes a digivolution card. If that Digimon would leave the field, the Tamer card will be trashed like a normal digivolution card.
Q6: If I use this Digimon's When Digivolving effect to digivolve into AncientGarurumon, then it digivolves or is affected by De-Digivolve, what happens to the "delete this Digimon at the end of this turn" effect?
Digimon carry over effects after digivolving or de-digivolving, therefore it's deleted at the end of the turn.
Q7: This Digimon has a Tamer card in its digivolution cards, and I used its When Digivolving effect to digivolve into AncientGarurumon, then it was affected by a De-Digivolve effect and became a Tamer. Does the "delete this Digimon at the end of this turn" effect delete this Tamer at such times?
No, it isn't deleted because it's no longer considered a Digimon.
Q8: I used BT3-109 Back for Revenge! on this Digimon, then I used this Digimon's When Digivolving effect to digivolve into AncientGarurumon. After this Digimon is deleted at the end of this turn, does BT3-109 Back for Revenge!'s effect play this card or AncientGarurumon into the battle area?
Digimon carry over effects after digivolving, therefore it plays AncientGarurumon.
Q9: I have BT17-023 KendoGarurumon with BT18-088 Takuya Kanbara & Koji Minamoto in its digivolution cards. At the end of the turn, I use BT18-088 Takuya Kanbara & Koji Minamoto's inherited effect to attack, and I use BT17-023 KendoGarurumon's When Attacking effect to digivolve into this card. If I use this card's When Digivolving effect to digivolve into AncientGarurumon at such times, the end of the turn timing has already passed, but does this card's effect delete that AncientGarurumon?
No, it won't be deleted. Effects that are processed at specific timings will be processed when that timing arrives, similar to triggered effects. If this card's effect is used to digivolve at the end of the turn, the end of the turn timing has already passed, therefore this card's "delete this Digimon at the end of the turn" isn't processed.
Q10: Can I choose to not digivolve with this card's 1st effect?
No, you can't. For this card's 1st effect, you declare a digivolution, then upon revealing this card, you can also choose a Tamer as the card to digivolve, and that Tamer is also treated as a level 3 Digimon. As with the normal digivolution procedure, after revealing this card and declaring a digivolution, you can't choose to not digivolve. In addition, you can't declare digivolution into this card in the first place unless there is a card on the field that you can digivolve.
Q11: Does a Digimon gain the security effects in the lower text of a Tamer card in its digivolution cards?
No, it does not.
Q12: Does a Digimon gain the inherited effects in the lower text of a Tamer card in its digivolution cards?
Yes, it does.
