There is much uncertainty about Daichi's past as we still don't know anything about his clan, and his history. In the manga or its anime adaptation, he only made a few brief appearances.
He first debuted in Live or Die: Risk it All to Win it All!, episode 56 in the Chunin Exams Arc in the series. In the arc, he was introduced as a classmate of Konohamaru Sarutobi, the Third Hokage's grandchild, and a ninja academy student. When Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage, asked who they would protect, Daichi answered that he would protect his friends.
In the Academy Lead Mission, during a survival exercise, Daichi was a member of a temporary team, alongside his fellow academy students Matsuri and Nobori, under the leadership of Hinata Hyuga.
In the Konoha Plans Recapture Mission, Daichi and other academy students were thrown out of their classes under the threat of a live bomb located somewhere in the academy. Daichi, Nobori, Koji, and some other kids went to an area to throw kunai knives at a wooden block.
Soon after they started throwing their kunai, Naruto Uzumaki, Rock Lee, and Choji Akimichi came to the scene to stop them under the suspicion that the bomb was planted in the wooden block, which turned out to be true.
Daichi hasn't shown up since these appearances, and her absence makes it impossible to ascertain whether he's dead or alive. Daichi is currently assumed to be alive and well unless any information surfaces indicating otherwise.
Daichi never had the chance to interact much in the series and did not have any significant role in the series. He never had an opportunity to showcase his personality. However, based on his brief interaction, it can be deduced that Daichi cherishes his friends and is willing to protect them.
Daichi is a young boy with squinted eyes and black hair that he keeps covered with a beige bandana-like piece of clothing. He also wears headgear resembling a headphone. He wears a grey t-shirt with red-yellow-orange stripes paired with a matching pair of pants and sandals. His knees are wrapped in white bandages.
Daichi is a former Hidden Leaf Ninja Academy student. However, he only made a very brief appearance in the series and was never shown employing any jutsu or skills. The extent of his arsenal of skills is unknown due to a lack of evidence.
