Daiba serves as the audience surrogate, acting as the viewer's entry point into Harlock's world. He is the 14-year-old son of a scientist killed by the Mazone, and he joined the Arcadia crew after his father's death. He lost his mother in a disaster on the Neptunian moon Triton when her pleas for help were ignored by the indifferent government. Tadashi occasionally clashes with Harlock early in the series, but he eventually becomes a trusted member of Harlock's senior staff as the series progresses.
