This was a enjoyable episode with the whole eyebrow thing. I'm pretty impress by Uiharu computer skills.

Seems like the setting up an actual story with the level 2 girl having powers above her station. I would just like to see more rampant destruction honestly.

PS: Haven't read the manga.

just watched episode 3 and OMG this episode was just pointless. i really did not enjoy it... if the rest of the anime will be filled with episodes like this i might even consider to drop this.

i rate the episode a 2/5, i really hope they will get the main story plot movie... if they even have one... :/

Don't worry, they're getting to it. Their little convo at the end of the episode is already hinting at what's coming later.

Isn't the database built on data from Tree Diagram... and wasn't Tree Diagram destroyed by a little accident involving our good friends Toma and Index? And without the level calculating super computer, people who improve their abilities won't go up in level? Or am I looking too far into this?

This was probably the worst of the 3 episodes. No funny moments like 2 and no cool action scenes since the criminal was nothing but a silly girl. Nothing interesting about catching her.
The only interesting thing was the hint that something is wrong with the computers and there data. I guess that is a hint of the plot that we are going to see in the future.
On one hand of course it might be good they didn't use Kuroko lesbian jokes since it won't be a good idea to over do it.

I hope something better is coming along. With some really good evil guys and not a silly girl with an eyebrow complex.

That hasn't happened yet. Touma and Biribiri haven't been introduced to each other yet, nor has their first meeting on the bridge happened yet, so he hasn't even met Index yet.

I'm liking this series so far. Also, am I the only one who's noticed that in the opening credits for the show you see that thing that's inside Kazakiri Hyoka's head from Index?

The database is NEVER wrong. You will out later on why she was stronger then she should have been ;)

and wasn't Tree Diagram destroyed by a little accident involving our good friends Toma and Index


Touma has yet to meet Index yet alone accidentaly make her destroy the Tree Diagram so the Tree Diagram still exists.

Touma and Biribiri haven't been introduced to each other yet


They have, few months before. In ep2 you can even see that they know one another.
And just to repeat it: the scene at the bridge in first episode of Index was NOT their first meeting, neither in Railgun nor in Index (only in Index manga, but Index manga is not canon).

rawrs ... i wan Touma to make an appearance x_x


Judging by episode titles, it seems that he will get some more screentime in ep5.

Yeah it was good until the eye brow foolish thing. The music playing in the beginning with Kongou Mitsuko was something I did not hear since finishing Index. That was nice. Since I am French, I love the reference of "Amour De Pierre/ Bijoux Mineraus" (means Love of Rocks/Jewelry Minerals) and "Les Anges"(means The Angels). Garden of Education looks like Old Europe. I was a little scared off to Komari warning that the pic are not pretty but guess not after I know what happened to Saten. "Dummy check" power is nice. I do find Juufuku Miho's story sad. If that guy did not reject her she would not do this stuff. It was funny that Miho tried to shock Misaka and did not work. Great Italian reference to treats. So now Miho is in love with Saten? O_o more girl love? The best was this:
best because I learned from it a lot. Will put it as reference in my profile to possible abilities of this serie. BTW Anyone know how to make the pics bigger so text is clear? I was able to see on player better than this.

Yeah that is true since all this happens before Index.

Yeah I know that but when was it officially the first meeting? When Touma got into the city?

It's not the database is wrong, just like the older post said, this episode is just an introduction to the plot, see the flag right?, probably 2-3 episode until the real plot kicks in, more probably if we count the fillers.

I had enough Yuri..Kampfer and Railgun already gave me too much

Uiharu is much much more useful than Saten, probably she will catch up later

There is no one evil in this series, they just lost

Quite nice but brainless episode. I hope the scenario won't be as silly as Index's one when it takes off in some episodes. Animation and art are still great though.

If there's trying to tease me with the 23-minutes of nonsense and then the 2-minutes of actually hinting at a plot, I want some goddamn yuri for all my troubles. >:o

But besides my issues, it was pretty good, and I'll definitely be waiting for the next episode.

Even if she did cut some off, it will still be visible because she used INK (it'll reach the skin man)

don't worry guys we're slowly moving to the main plot, slowly but surely...

You're talking about Saten right? But why don't the eye-brow girl just cut some of hers off?

Nice episode. This is a good action-fantasy slice-of-life series. So even when we get to the plot, don't expect it to be extremely serious.

The database is never wrong indeed. They clearly got an ability boost from something which will turn out to be a main plot.
bla bla bla
The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

decent ep!

this ep is in reality 4/5 but I gave it 5/5 (will in comparison with the previous ep, this ep completely rocked!)

I should say again welcome back my beloved BiriBiri <3<3!!

n how naive of the eyebrow-girl .. no would be able to use a stun-gun against my BiriBiri ^.^

n just like what Uiharu said, for the next ep: "Kimochi waroi!" xD

hope it's gonna be fairly fine ...

looking forward 2 returning on the right track with the manga!

n can't wait 2 c more of my BiriBiri <3!

It's more like they have met before, just that the main series showed them meeting after a month of fights with each other.
