When Nate believes that Jibanyan is brave for his actions, Jibanyan is surprised and overwhelmed with joy, forming a friendship with Nate. He later ends up staying at Nate's house, where he often spends his time eating chocolate bars or worshipping his favorite idol group, Next Harmeowny. Jibanyan had initially assumed that Amy called him lame for dying, but after being sent back in time by the Grim Reaper duo Kin and Gin, he learns that she was actually referring to herself, as Rudy's death was really the result of saving Amy from getting hit by the truck as she crossed the intersection to meet with her friends.; Jibanyan can transform into different Yo-kai under certain circumstances.
