WATCH: Djokovic meets Japanese fan that moved to Serbia

Novak Djokovic is having an absolute blast playing in Tokyo for the first time. The world No. 1 eased into the semifinals with a 6-1, 6-2 win over Lucas Pouille, and after his work day was done, he met with super fan Iori Yoshida.

You might think you've heard all the most impressive fan stories, but 21-year-old Yoshida might take the top prize. Hailing from Japan, he moved to Serbia after being inspired by Djokovic's 2011 season to play tennis, learn the language and...meet Djokovic.

It never happened in Djokovic's home country, but they finally met in Tokyo and the results were amazing.

"He speaks Serbian so well and is a very funny guy. Made me laugh so hard," Djokovic said. "I had a blast and these are exactly the situations that remind me how grateful I need to be every day to have the position to positively impact many lives."

Yoshida is chasing his dreams on court too, as he's played a few ITF pro tournaments and was good enough to hit around with Djokovic.

Djokovic took the positive energy into the next rounds, where he beat David Goffin and then topped John Millman for the title. He didn't lose a set all week.
