Oh... I thought it would have happened afterwards because they revealed that Mikoto could shoot things larger than a coin, which wasn't actually known until Railgun season 1 episode 24. (fanfare retcon huh?)

Then that was really the first battle between level 5's even if it was just Sogitta defending and Mikoto attacking... I guess that is kind of the same thing as Accel vs. Mikoto (even though Accelerator's defending is kind of like attacking) so I guess you can count those 2 as non-battles if you are thinking about that way.

After all, Mugino was trying to kill Mikoto and Mikoto kind of did the same thing... I don't care if she threw the part of the bridge to save Mugino, she definitely tried to kill her with the dolls beforehand. I know she fought harder because she was against a tougher opponent, but the anime kind of made it look like Mikoto saving her was a little more ridiculous than in the manga, especially seeing after how hard Mikoto tried to hurt her. (There wasn't all of that blood on Mugino's face in the manga which was arguably a nice touch after all.)...

But sure: that was the first real battle between lvl 5's. We have to wait for season 3 Index to see more of that. I like NT (6) a lot as well :D

BTW: I kind of feel like any battle involving Touma at this point is way beyond level 5 fighting so that isn't really a problem... as we saw, level 5's just can't cut it (except maybe one of them...)
