Personality[]
He showcases a great deal of pride and confidence in his abilities as a Buddyfighter, declaring his certainty in reaching the finals of the tournament in front of his potential opponents. Dai displays a similar passion for his cooking skills, willing and able to cook every thing he fishes from the sea and in large quantities, though he disregards any possible side effects said food has when consumed. He is willing to offer his help to anyone, with no reward in mind. Dai has shown to be also honorable and humble, he was horrified upon the discovery that Gao became ill due to his underlings (rather unknowingly) feeding him Silly Seaweed and claimed that he was to blame as their chief for what happened after apologizing profusely. He and Genma got along extremely well during their first match against one another and was visibly moved by Tasuku's good sportsmanship after his defeat to his powerful Duel Jeager "Revolted."
