Brief description

Daiki is Daisuke's grandfather and Emiko's father. Daiki was Dark 40 years before the series takes place. Unlike Daisuke, he worked many times without Dark, gaining the ability to use wings in human form much sooner than Daisuke does. He took the task of stealing during his time as Dark as though it was his job. In his youth, Daiki has bowl-shaped, crimson hair that later becomes grey and spiked like his grandson's in old age. He appears more often in the manga than he does in the anime series.

Personality

Daiki is Daisuke Niwa’s eccentric grandfather. With the aid of his daughter, Emiko, he prepares Daisuke for his destiny. The last one, before Daisuke, of the Niwa family to transform into Dark. During the Anime, he randomly wanders around town gaining information about Dark's potential targets.
