Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Ichigeki at none against Stick Athlete's 1. Ichigeki also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 18.0). Stick Athlete's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 4 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
