Following Fortnite's main storyline is crucial for understanding what's happening around the island at any given point. Sometimes, though, parts of the story get a bit confusing, as is the case with what happened to Daigo after the Super Showdown live event.
Even if you watched the full live event, you may not be sure what happened to Daigo, since he's only featured in a small portion of it. If you want to ensure you're caught up with the lore before the next season begins, here's what happened to Daigo after the live event in Fortnite Chapter Six, season three.

What happened to Daigo in Fortnite?
Following the conclusion of the Super Showdown live event, Daigo is free from the dark presence that was controlling him and is back to his old self. He's changed from the Mask Maker Daigo skin back to the classic Daigo skin originally featured in the Chapter Six, season one battle pass.
During the live event, Daigo summoned a massive kraken beast to do his bidding while under the control of the mysterious dark presence. This creature turned against him, though, and whacked him far away. This hit seems to have broken him free from his captor, as he's now back to the old Daigo we all know and love.
Where did Daigo go after the live event in Fortnite?
Daigo was originally smacked away to a nearby mountain by the kraken during the live event, but following the conclusion of the big boss fight, he returned to Demon's Domain. Now, you can find him hanging out in the middle of the area.
The massive building he was previously found inside at this location was destroyed in the live event. Because of this, he now just mediates, hovering slightly off the ground in the middle of this POI. Since he's back to his old self, he won't attack you on sight anymore, and instead only initiates a battle if provoked. He does still hold a powerful Medallion plus some other items, so if you want some of the best weapons and loot you can get this season, it's worth fighting him.
What happened during the live event in Fortnite Chapter 6, season 3?
If you missed out on the live event and want to understand how Daigo became his old self again and everything else that went down during this epic event, here's a breakdown of everything that happened.
First, Daigo flew up into the sky and harnessed epic powers to summon a massive beast to execute the dark presence's will. As he used his abilities, he completely toppled the central tower that once stood at Demon's Domain.
A large, menacing tentacle covered in glowing yellow eyes then rose out of the nearby lake. Daigo commanded this kraken creature to do his bidding, but it instead smacked him out of the sky, sending him soaring. This is the last we saw of Daigo during the official event, but if you played during it and followed him in replay mode afterward, you can witness him crash-landing on a nearby mountain.
With Daigo out of the picture, the kraken creature was ready to destroy the island. Luckily, our friends from Supernova Academy, who are also NPCs that can be found around the island, arrived to save the day. A massive boss battle between these NPCs, with all players in attendance fighting alongside them, and the kraken ensued.
Just when it seemed like the creature was finally defeated, it rose up again, even stronger, with three massive tentacles and three full health bars instead of one. The battle began anew, and just when it seemed like all hope was lost, Superman arrived to save the day. He tore the tentacles apart and ripped through all the Overlord Spires and Scout Spires around the island, decimating the creature for good.
A massive piece of the mysterious beast remains on the island, though, and investigating the tentacle is a key quest you need to get done before the season ends. These remains have started rotting and have led to some strange new craters spawning nearby. This will likely lead into the theme of next season, and although the kraken is dead, the dark presence controlling it is alive and well.
