Personality
Shiozaki has a very modest and courtiers personality as seen that she bows when she was given the chance to proceed in the tournament. She also appears to be religious as she hold her hands in a prayer like form as she thanks for the second chance she received. According to the author, she is supposed to be sweet, very honest, and poor at deceiving or outsmarting people. Also, she prefers to be fair and square when she disagreed with Monoma's plan in the Sports Festival.

Sports Festival Arc
Ibara participates in the Obstacle Race and places 4th, allowing her to participate in the next event, the Human Cavalry Battle. She later teams up with Juuzou, Tetsutetsu and Yousetsu.

At the beginning of the event, Tetsutetsu's team attacks Izuku's team with Juuzou using his Quirk to trap them, but Izuku uses his jetpack to escape. Tetsutetsu's team attacks them again, but Fumikage's Dark Shadow blocks them off. After the Human Cavalry Battle ends, Tetsutetsu's team fails to qualify for the final event with Tetsutetsu confused as to how they lost all their points, with Ibara remarking that it is possibly punishment for taking the dwarfy kid's headband in such an unfair way.

After Mashirao and Shouda resign from the tournament event, Midnight says that the empty slots will be replaced by Team Kendou, but Team Kendou gives the opportunity to Team Tetsutetsu, with Ibara bowing in appreciation. Therefore, Ibara and Tetsutetsu become part of the Top 16 in the tournament event and she is paired up against Denki Kaminari in the first round.

During the first few seconds of her match with Denki, she wraps her vines around Denki, preventing him from moving and causing his Quirk to backfire on himself, thereby defeating him with ease and allowing her to move on to the next round. Ibara then says she is glad that the second chance she was given didn't go to waste.

Ibara faces her opponent, Tenya, in her second round match. During her match, Ibara attacks Tenya with her thorns but they could not hit Tenya due to his maneuverability. In the remaining seconds of the match, Tenya uses Recipro Burst, grabs Ibara and throws her out of bounds which causes her to lose and eliminates her from the tournament event. After being defeated by Tenya, Ibara is seen watching the proceeding matches with her classmates.

Quirk
"Vines" - Ibara's Quirk allows her to grow vines on her head which she can extend, attack and grab with them.
