Ikeshita is a member of Sawara Middle School's Go team. He faces off against Tetsuo Kaga of Haze Middle School during the second round of the Kita Ward Middle School Go Tournament. Ikeshita is easily trounced by Tetsuo. When a Sawara teacher makes a misleading suggestion to Ikeshita, Tetsuo demonstrates that the suggestion would not have saved Ikeshita and resigning was the correct choice.
