[edit] Appearance

She is a ninjitsu fighter from Japan and wears a baggy, khaki ninja suit with a mask over her lower face.

She is a Kunoichi, but in contrast to the stereotype commonly associated with these ninjas, she also shows a "Valley girl"-ish side, stating that she finds her ninja clothes ugly and her daily training strange, and jumping back into her civilian clothing as soon as she wins a bout.

[edit] Story

Ibuki lives in a village composed entirely of Ninja. She has been trained from childhood, but resents her lot in life.

Ibuki was sent by her clan to procure documents from Gill's organization. These documents concerned the "G-File" project, which was responsible for creating Necro and Twelve. Gill voluntarily gave Ibuki the documents, though the project was already under way by that point.

In 3rd Strike, Ibuki tracks down Oro to fight him for her ninja graduation exam. She fights well enough to pass, and moves on to go to a university. While there, she joins a club which, to her dismay, turns out to be based on ninja training.

[edit] Relationships to minor characters

The other ninja in Ibuki's clan include Sanjou, Enjou, Genda, Raion and Homura Yuuta. Enjou is often mistaken for Geki from the original Street Fighter. Capcom has not confirmed any relationship Ibuki has to Geki.

Ibuki has a pet tanuki named Don.

[edit] Trivia

  • Ibuki was originally designed as a male ninja with spectacles.
