[edit] Brief description
Dark is an entity passed on through the Niwa family to each new male once he reaches the age of 14 and experiences love. He was gone for 40 years due to the fact that Daisuke's grandfather Daiki, who was Dark before Daisuke, had an only daughter, Emiko. Being female, it was impossible for her to become Dark. He is the phantom thief who constantly steals cursed art pieces made by the Hikari family in order to seal their harmful powers (the only exception known is the Agate Links, which was an heirloom given as a gift from Daiki to Menou). Unlike Daisuke, who likes Risa, Dark fell in love with Riku, the older twin sister (in the manga). He uses Wiz as his wings, since his real ones, like Krad's and their magic, would hurt Daisuke. In the English version, Dark is known as the Phantom Thief Dark. Every time he uses his magic he gets closer and closer to his true form. Since Krad is the only one to address him as Dark Mousy it is under debate as to whether or not it is his real name.
[edit] Further Details
[edit] Reputation
He is a known as Phantom Dark (Kaitō Dāku in Japanese) and is a legendary thief of artworks (most of which, unknown to the public, have two common factors, one is that they belong to the Hikari family, the last of which is Satoshi Hiwatari, and that they contain magical properties). Who he is and where he is from are mysteries. For 300 years (400 in the manga) Dark’s power has been passed down through the male members of the Niwa family.
Though he always informs where, when and what he is going to 'steal', he never got caught by the police or any other human forces.
[edit] Personality
His demeanor is candid and confident, which is the complete oppostite of Daisuke (shy and reserved.) He is well aware of his good looks and on the surface he could be seen as arrogant. It would be easy to dismiss the deeper, kinder side of his personality. Many anime lovers have fallen for him and discussions tend to get very heated. Daisuke and Dark often fight against one another for control (resulting in some comedy relief.) He is also very flirtatious around girls. In other words, he's your typical bad boy.
He obviously seems to dislike Krad a lot (seeing as Krad has attempted to kill him and Daisuke several times; most likely in the past as well, he has encountered Krad before).
In the manga, he fell for Riku, but Riku labels him as a pervert as he stole her first kiss. He was rejected by Riku numerous times, and though it seemed to be not such a big deal on the surface, Dark's feelings were hurt by Riku's comments towards him.
Later on, Dark went on a date with Risa, who was, of course, thrilled and excited. He then asked Risa a strange question: "If I was a monster, what would you do?" Risa hugged the phantom thief, saying that she would love him, triggering romantic feelings in Dark, who hastily runs away before he could turn back into Daisuke.
As Daisuke has noted, Dark's feelings towards Risa are slowly changing. The reason why Dark had gone to a date with Risa was to tell her not to pursue him anymore, as he would not be able to be together with her (seeing as Dark would disappear when Riku accepts the fact that Daisuke is Dark.)
Risa smiles at his rejection, and responded by saying: "You can't be serious about anyone... right?" She asks for one last ferris wheel ride, to which Dark agrees. But then there was a blackout, (caused by Argentine, the newest character)and Dark noticed that it was caused by magic that was very similar to Krad's. Knowing that Risa would be in danger if he continued to stay with her in the ferris wheel, he told her to stay there quietly until he comes back.
Risa told him that she will wait for him, and Dark speeds off. But then Argentine kidnaps Risa, leaving a card that said that he has taken Dark's "Sacred Maiden" away. Seeing the message, Dark turns furious, yelling that he won't forgive him (Argentine), and rips the card apart.
