Using insta-kill against a raid boss is generally just a bad idea too. Even if you hit that 1% and actually manage to kill her, because IK counts as an effect and not an attack, it will deal 0 damage. So if you kill Ibaraki with Shiki you will only gain the damage you inflicted to her before the IK hit as damage points (so if she gets insta-killed at 5M HP you'll only gain 1M damage points, if she gets it at 2M HP you'll only get 4M damage points etc). It's better to just try to kill her the normal way.
