Nagi exchanging with Soutarou
Soutarou is a housepet and also part of the Traditional Sword fighting club. One day, Nagi Kamishimo arrived there and beat him in a fight. After that crushing defeat, Nagi offered to pay Soutarou's debt but in return he would have to follow Nagi around everywhere and do what he says. Ibuki chose to free himself from the pet status and simply become Nagi's partner.
He shows up during the rebellion against Kirari, led by Aoi Mibuomi. He arrives there together with Kamishimo. They both then later play against Mary Saotome, because Nagi wants to do so. He also still accompanies him and gambles against Sakura Miharutaki with Nagi. Both Nagi and Soutarou lost the games, as a result they are unable to assist Aoi in his plan to take down Kirari.
