Ikki Kurogane vs Tohka Todo: Rematch is a fight between the Hagun Academy students, Ikki Kurogane and Tohka Todo. It takes place prior to the finals of the Seven Stars Sword Art Festival.

Epilogue
Having now defeated the Hagure Sisters, Byakuya Jougasaki, Momiji Asagi and Renji Kaga, Ikki now faces Tohka Todo, a fellow Hagun Academy student. Ikki and Tohka previously faced each other in the finals of the selection matches, where Ikki defeated Tohka with a single slash. Though Ikki has already had multiple battles, he is still in good condition and ready to face Tohka, who has improved from their previous encounter.

Battle
As the match starts, Tohka immediately uses her Noble Art, Raiou, launching multiple lighting attacks at Ikki. Ikki easily starts dodging the attacks, but Tohka keeps on shooting more of her lightning slashes. Yudai Moroboshi, who is watching the match, notes that Tohka has figured out that Ikki can't use Edelweiss's technique when making sudden stops and directional changes, which is why she is continually launching attacks, which put a load on Ikki's body. This should result to Ikki getting hit eventually hit. However, Ikki manages to avoid the attacks more easily, by running through the gaps below the attacks. Ikki then rushes towards Tohka, and attacks her extremely fast, forcing her to use her signature move, Raikiri, to simply force him back for a few moments.

Ikki and Tohka then clash, exchanging multiple slashes. Although Ikki is extremely skilled, Tohka manages to counter him fairly well. Ikki then manages to throw Tohka off balance, planning on using that moment to cut her and win the match. However, when Ikki attempts to attack Tohka, his strike is blocked by her, despite that Ikki should be faster than Tohka. As their swords are touching each other, Tohka delivers an electric attack through them, zapping Ikki and immobilizing him for a moment. Tohka attempts to use this opportunity to attack Ikki, but Ikki uses his body control to manipulate his heart muscle and neurotransmission to quickly recover from the electric shock, allowing him to dodge Tohka's attack. They then continue their sword duel. Although Ikki should be able to break through Tohka's swordsmanship with his faster attacks, Tohka is managing to push him back, her slashes having somehow become faster. This increase in speed is due to Tohka's new Noble Art, Inazuma, which allows Tohka to return her blade into her scabbard, using electromagnetic propulsion and repulsion present in the magnetic field created by the technique itself. This technique allows Tohka to block Ikki's naturally faster attacks, while also delivering faster attacks of her own. However, this technique puts a heavy load on her wrist, causing it to be able to only be only used sparingly to disrupt the opponents rhythm. Tohka then launches a thrust, that actually pushes Ikki back even further, surprising both Shizuku Kurogane and Yudai. Yudai himself notes that Tohka is far stronger than when he faced him the semifinals of the 61st Seven Stars Sword Art Festival.

Tohka continues to push Ikki back until he stumbles on the part of the arena that was previously broken by Renji Kaga's attack. He gets hit by another electric shock, which paralyzes him. Tohka then decides to use her Raikiri to finish the battle but is unable to return her sword to its sheath, due to a rock being stuck inside the sheath. This is actually Ikki's plan, who kicked a broken piece of the arena into Tohka's sheath. Ikki uses this opportunity to cut Tohka's throat with his Device's Illusionary Form, causing Tohka to crumble down, and lose the match.

Prologue
Tohka is surprised by Ikki coming up with such a unique way of overcoming Raikiri, being impressed by his creativeness. She thanks Ikki, as she was able to learn from him. Ikki also thanks Tohka for fighting him. They are though interrupted by Yudai, who now challenges Ikki into a mock battle.
