Shizuya Kirihara/Relationships

Ikki Kurogane
Shizuya and Ikki had nothing more than an antagonistic relationship since their first-year at Hagun Academy. After being urged by his teachers who were allied with Itsuki, he attempted to be nice to Ikki who was unable to attend classes and tried to fight him to prove himself. Knowing it was a trap that the teachers set up, Ikki refused walking about but was shot from behind by Shizuya who continued until he passed out getting nothing more than a simple punishment.

Despite a year passing, Shizuya still continued to bully and harass him when they met again, during the selection match, he started hitting him with different arrows in various vital spots. He even revealed that if Ikki won the 62nd Seven Stars Sword Art Festival, then he could graduate and urged the group to cheer him on by laughing while all of them ridiculed him. After losing to Ikki, Shizuya revealed his fear of being injured himself and even thought that all his accomplishments were nothing more than luck.
