In Densetsu no Starfy 3
After Torito clears his name, Starfy, Starly, and Moe continue to search for the one who was trying to eat Crawdaddy and his son by heating up the hot spring. After confronting Lovely and her friends about falsely accusing Torito, they think about anyone else suspicious before landing on "someone wearing some strange outfit" further in the area. Going to investigate, the trio meet Kittana for the first time, who was training at the time of the "crime". Though he recalls seeing someone actually suspicious not too long ago, due to being offended at being called suspicious, he refuses to say anything unless they can find weaknesses in a technique he's been practicing. If they can, he offers to teach Starly how to perform the Wall Jump, refusing to do the same for Starfy due to him knowing the technique of his rival, Shurikit. After Moe gives Starly a bag of matatabi, or silver vine, and a cattail plant to draw Kittana out of hiding, he is found in disbelief that his technique has a weak point. He then keeps true to his word, teaching Starly how to Wall Jump and giving her information after she finishes practicing the move. He tells her that he saw this "suspicious person" not too far from here, adding that Salandad lives nearby as well. Though he worries for Salandad, Starly assures him that she'll deal with whoever it is and that she'll make sure to use Kittana's technique. Wishing her the best, Kittana gives Starly the Eyepatch Stuff Item.
