History
Ike spent time with Ken Sudō and Yamauchi Haruki, a Class D trio Kazehara Tetsu dubbed the “Three Fools.” At a café, Kazehara showed them footage of a Class A student stealing lipstick. Ike was curious about both the student and the footage; when Yamauchi agreed to pay 50,000 Personal Points for it, Ike reluctantly contributed to the purchase 7 8.
Ike initially celebrated passing the midterm, then learned that a changed passing score left his mathematics mark of 38 two points short. Facing expulsion alongside Sudō, he begged their teacher for another chance. Class D ultimately raised 300,000 Personal Points to buy the six points the two students needed, though the fundraising caused resentment among their classmates 48 49 50.
Later, as a Class C student, Ike was selected for expulsion. His weak academic and athletic record made him vulnerable, but his poor relationships within the class also left him without classmates willing to defend or fund his rescue. Class C could not afford the 20 million Personal Points required to save him, and the school posted his expulsion 324.
