i watched this episode 3 hours ago: that was a really short "arc". Kurosuma goes to the jail, but before that, a nice fight scene. Not bad... 8/10 for this episode, because i was expecting more Misaka D:

next episode: the girls are gonna practice boxing? O_o

Vrrrrroooooooommmm!

"In the end it turned into boob-talk". Epic quote. xD

I like Kuroko's "I don't give a damn cause I'm wise" attitude during the whole episode. The episode was quite violent for this show, especially the way they showed Hebitani getting punched in the face in bullet-time speed.

She mustn't REALLY love him. Kuroko never arrests Misaka for assault. Or is nearly killing people with electricity somehow a lesser crime than hitting them with your fists?

IA, it's an interesting side of her personality I'd like to see more often. Also, Railgun in confused mode.

I have nothing against Mii, but

Darn it, I wanted Misaka to Railgun Mii. =/
There's got to be something bigger on because of the phone call Hebitani got, or at least I hope so.

Painstakingly slow and boring episode for the first ~18 minutes or so and it all climax with a fist fight. And all the "serious feeling talk" just felt awkward and badly written for some reason.
No this definitely ranks as one of the worst episodes as of yet.

Ironically, I actually liked this episode much more than many of the previous episodes, unlike so many other here. Guess those that like fan service will always look for the fan service episodes.

Helllloooo. Where is the awesome arc you promised?
This one was okay, I don't mind focusing on some of the side characters, but seeing as next week will be one again once more..

Hell yeah for Misaka with boxing gloves. Fits her well.
And the OP is growing on me, I'm now at peace with the change.


This better not go down the Majutsu road..

Obviously. If it did, the OP would feature Accelerator and the Imouto's.
But then again, they can't animate the arc that won't end so soon in manga either.

I liked this arc a lot more than previous ones most definitely. This was a decent episode to end it also. I did feel Konori's relationship with Kuronuma could have been paced a little better, but overall still decent. Plus, I loved that BGM music at the end.

lol at the negative reaction. I think the pacing fits this series very well. To Aru Majutsu was too fast paced, imo....

And about the Imouto Arc....well, the manga is still on it, so I think it's wise to not animate it.....

Okay, first post; some few reminders.

> The Sisters Arc will most probably be shown in the Second Season. Honestly, if they would shove it in 6 episodes (assuming the next two will be about Tessou Tsuzuri), then MORE people would rant.

> Don't look for Touma. You'll get disappointed. This is not his show for crying out loud.

LOL, that's what got me laughing also. That and finding out that Konori was a 3rd level and her esper power is x-ray vision (or DC comic's Ultra Boy's penetra-vision).
What if the Hokey Pokey is what it is all about?

That was a nice little arc. It wasn't over the top like I usually expect from the show. But it tied together nicely in the end, and I'm a sucker for sentimental flashbacks.
