Plot

Inazuma Eleven

Season 1

He is first seen in one of Aki's flashback, when him, Ichinose, and Domon are trying to perfect Tri-Pegasus.

Then, when Raimon's match against Kidokawa Seishuu was decided, he was seen with their coach and the Triangle Z-triplets. Ichinose, Domon, and Aki noticed him and so they decided to stay and chat together like the old times. He told the three that he had joined Kidokawa Seishuu's team that year because his parents found a new place to work, but was surprised to see his three childhood friends on the rival team. Ichinose told him that he, Domon, and Endou had perfected their own Tri-Pegasus and he was surprised. Then he departed from them. During the match against Raimon, when he saw the Tri-Pegasus, he told Ichinose, Domon, and Endou that they had truly made it their own technique. And when the match was over, after seeing Tri-Pegasus evolve, he named the new technique "The Phoenix".

Season 2

He was seen as a member of the Dark Emperors with a piece of the Aliea Meteorite. Ichinose exclaimed that he was surprised that Nishigaki was there and had a flashback to when he met Nishigaki at the riverbank — Nishigaki using Spinning Cut on Ichinose, Domon, and Endou to block The Phoenix.

Inazuma Eleven Ares no Tenbin

Nishigaki was the first one to welcome Gouenji back on Kidokawa Seishuu. He was really surprised when the Mukata triplets challenged Gouenji to a 3-3 mini-game, though when he saw Nikaidou Shuugo approved of it, he let it happen.

Nishigaki played in the match against Seishou Gakuen, mainly playing with linked plays. During the match, he intercepted a pass from Kidou Yuuto, destined for Orio Fuyuki, as his teammates eliminated all other pass options. Later in the match, Nishigaki managed to steal the ball from Haizaki with his Spinning Cut, as three of his defenders managed to stop Haizaki from advancing, He quickly passed the ball to Gouenji again, who only just failed to score with his Fire Tornado. In the last seconds of additional time, he got outpaced by Haizaki who successfully caught Kidou's pass and then scored with Death Zone, making the score 4-3 for Seishou Gakuen.
