I would like to introduce Mr. Daikichi of Fukuoka Softbank Hawks performance team "Acrobatic Performers".
Born in Fukuoka, Japan on August 31, he is 170 cm tall and enjoys hot springs. Mr. Daikichi is in his third year with the company. His reason for continuing his activities this season is his desire to "perform with the best view at MIZUHO PayPay Dome FUKUOKA. This season, he will continue to add to the entertainment of the The Hawks performance team with his spectacular acrobatics.

What are you grateful for in your life?
In my first year of high school, I was often absent from school and didn't have enough credits, so my promotion to the next grade was in jeopardy. However, the school closures due to the COVID-19 pandemic coincided with this, and I was able to successfully advance to the next grade.
During that break, I came across some acrobatics videos and started practicing, which became a turning point in my life. Thanks to acrobatics, I was able to graduate from high school, and I believe that "if it weren't for the pandemic, I wouldn't be standing on the dome stage today."
Some may find this insensitive, but I truly believe that there are people in this world who find solace in tragic events and whose lives are transformed.
