Dai is a friendly, energetic person and greatly idolizes heroes, desiring and training to be one, much to the annoyance of Brass who wants to mold Dai as a mage, which Dai dislikes. He initially comes off as naïve but sometimes he's not an idiot, he has a mischief side and always had a strong sense of justice, largely because of a result that Dai was raised by monsters and he's the only human feral child on Dermline Island, lack of contact with humanity at large which leaves him only to assume to best intentions out of the people he meets with, being largely unable to deduce second intentions. This comes to backfire when he meets the Fake Heroes and during the coup against Leona.
Dai is friendly yet sometimes naïve regarding people he meets. Within the first episode, we also see somewhat of a mischievous side to him.


Many people note that Dai's most defining trait is his courage because it is the secret weapon of the hero, never backing down and fighting for true justice, regardless of the difference in strength between himself and his foes, always trying to overcome his present obstacles, a trait that has won over many individuals to his side and help him, for he has a heart of a true hero. In both instances, although shocked at the malice he is witnessing, he is nonetheless brave enough to hold his ground and fight back being completely capable of discerning between right and wrong and fight against perceived wrongdoing like when Dai refused to run away from the battle of Flazzard even know the Blizzblaze Curse Field drain his powers but continue to fight, but making him stubborn and reckless as he almost got killed.
Overall, he cares deeply for his monster friends and immediately gets heartbroken when all the monsters on his island slowly become evil again thanks to Hadlar's influence.
 
Being a feral child, Dai gets along impressively well with the monsters of Dermline Island, acting as a leader of the pack of sorts as the monsters follow his every directive with both sides treating each other as a genuine family. Although at times annoyed with Brass's strict upbringing, he loves his adoptive grandfather with all his heart and is saddened when all the monsters go feral as a result of Hadlar's influence, and even refused to escape alone as he desired a way to help them instead. His love for his family is a weakness that was once exploited and almost resulted in his defeat, yet it also ignites his rage and his full power which can severely backfire on his offenders.
 
Dai greatly looks up to his master Avan, a true hero in every sense of the word who not only oversaw his teachings but recognized the boy's potential and drive to be a hero, following Avan's teachings to its fullest and serving as a true disciple of Avan who fights for love and justice. He got along well with Popp a more senior disciple although often annoyed at the latter's cowardice which he manages to eventually overcome with the two becoming great friends and developing a brotherly bond. Dai was initially surprised and somewhat disappointed at princess Leona, for her personality was the stark contrast of the image of a typical princess, being extremely blunt and direct but ultimately comes to respect her as a resolute person who truly means well, developing a strong sense of loyalty and even a crush for her.
