The opening song was awesome. I would like to see the reaction of Railgun's two friends when they find out that she has a crush on a level 0 esper.

Even though this series is sort of on the generic comedy side it still manages to be enjoyable. However, at this rate I don't think the enjoyment will last the entire season, but maybe it will surprise me.

I found this episode to be absolutely hilarious, however Index is the better series, it had action, humor, and to be honest Touma is a better character than Misaka, there I said it.

At the rate Shirai puts Misaka into all the stressful situations, i dont think Misaka will ever develop properly!

.... Misaka-samaaaaaaaaaa~~

I was kinda disappointed that there wasn't more Touma VS Misaka action this episode, but oh well I guess we'll get to that later. I didn't expect them to use content from the extra chapters though. I'm curious of how many episodes this season is going to be.

LoL! I just checked your profile Monad and you gave index a 7/10. So I guess your taste in anime SUCKS too. Jumping on the band wagon for the Index bashing is just immature.

These first two "filler" episodes of Railgun don't have anything on Index's first two episodes. Index failed later in the series. Lets hope that railgun starts off terrible and gets better. I'm hoping that the other people that have read the manga are right about them throwing all this filler in the beginning so they can concentrate on the real story without filler interruptions at the end.

BTW the best part of episode two was when the teacher snapped Kuroko's annoying little neck.

Maybe are way of scoring it's different. Anyway Index was about 6.5 for me but since we don't have half points i was generous and gave it a 7. On the other hand there are other anime with a 7 on my list that could be 7.5 so in general they are quite better. Things ain't that simple. And the fact that i found Index not as good as it should be, doesn't mean i thought it was the worst anime ever made and i should give it a 3. I have Pokemon for that.

As about this two episodes. If you speak about development, action and events occurring you might be right about not having anything on Index but as simple as enjoyment goes and having a good time watching(which is why we watch things most of the time) they are already better than Index. And it's only the start.

BTW don't forget the delivery man with the "computer parts", the sexy underwear, the masochistic enjoyment of Kuroko being electrified and a few others. See how fun it was?

just that this episode kinda remind me of some post in episode 1 discussion thread:

Also, though I enjoy their interaction, I hope this episode isn't an indication that 50% of the series will be spent on Kuroku trying to go on a date with Misaka

Quick question for those who read the manga (or is it a light novel that this is base on). Will we get to see the other Misakas in this one? and what about the plots that were already taken care in Index (I mean Touma vs Accelerator battle) do we get to see those again from different perspective or what?

DarcyD I agree, arguing about taste is lame and that's why I commented. As for why one might want to discuss To Aru Majustsu no Index vs. To Aru Kagaku no Railgun, go watch or read INDEX and then you will understand why it is worth discussing the difference lad.

I remember someone already answer this in the First episode discussion..and according to manga i read, Railgun happened before Index, it will be interesting to see MISAKA's arc from Misaka's perspective though i don't know if the two story will meet up in MISAKA's arc

hmmmmmm, so-so ep...

It was a full yuri ep >_>

hmmm .. 3/5 for Touma's appearance .. the yuriness was a lil' fun, but meh.

If this series continues on like this I might reconsider my rating on it >_<"

we didn't rly get to c any real biribiri till now! this completely sucks ...

n for ppl saying :"Railgun is better than Index" Well, Index had a plot while this series is nothing more than a yuri anime(until now 80% yuri, 20% for the biribiri parts we got in ep1 ^^)

Yuri should be added soon to this anime main genres...

3/5

Everyone needs to calm down, for the people who saw the first series, you shouldn't be shocked that this anime would be mostly yuri antics.

Even if it is yuri antics, THIS still beats Index, BY A LOT. The first series wasn't that enjoyable, at least this one has the best 2 characters from the first series.

Truth be told, I prefer funny non complicated anime over nonsensical over the top plot with lame characters such as Index and Touma.


I'VE SAID IT BEFORE, I'LL SAY IT AGAIN

RAILGUN>>>>>>>>>>>index


I am in the minority, but I really enjoyed the first season. Sure it had some weak points, but overall it did a lot of things well. Though I do predict I will enjoy this side-story, I don't see it being better than the first season at all. I won't fully judge that until I finish it though.

I also liked Index. Except for the Alister arc, it was pretty true to the manga. And Index was different than the other series because the stories revolved around Index but she wasn't the main character.

As for Railgun being much better than Index...after 2 episodes this person already decided this as fact....that says fail on his part.
What if the Hokey Pokey is what it is all about?

Loved this episode!! Its perfect for me :D
Thank goodness the yuri wasn't a 'serious' one. More like comedy.

Index was enjoyable but I think it serves as a backbone for sidestories like these.
I'm hoping there's going to be a "To aru no kagaku accelerator" cause I loved his powers :3.

And I think the action is gonna come soon. Can't wait to see Kuroko and Onee-sama in action.
Although I love action, Railgun >>> Index.

She can never do that because Touma can cancel all forms of powers. The electrical attack will never shock him unless he wants to. Misaka would have to punch him to beat him up.

You guys are funny. why will she ever bother with all that. Anyone can beat Touma. Just get a gun and shoot the guy. His right hand only cancels special powers.
