In June 2015, she achieved four consecutive wins at the Japanese National Championship, and was chosen to be a representative at the World Championship. In September at the World Championship finals, she went up against London Olympic gold medalist Mariya Stadnik from Azerbaijan. Tosaka was given two points due to an activity time (AT) warning, but was able to tie the score in the last ten seconds with a one-legged tackle. In order to declare a winner from this tie, Stadnik challenged the judge's ruling, saying that the point where she was pushed out of the ring was just one point, but this was not approved. The score became 3 to 2 and Tosaka achieved her third consecutive victory at the World Championship. With this win, as long as she participated in the Japanese National Championship in December, she would be offered to be a representative at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. As a measure against strong foreign athletes, she competed in the 53kg weight class at the Japanese National Championship in December, and competed against third year Irie Nanami from Kyushu Kyoritsu University. While it was a close match, Tosaka won the competition and became an Olympic representative.
