Still no relevant plot :(
But we got to see Misaka in a maid costume and a nice dress x)
Also, we got to see an embarassed Misaka because of Touma :P

Damn, even Kuroko was silenced at the end. She really is the ace of Tokiwada.

The animation of playing violin .. so poor. They'd better do a slide show.
Anyways pretty good filler (I guess?) episode.

OH geeez.... The filler was okay. But why did Touma show up at the most random times ever! I mean show us glimpses rather than just like out of nowhere he comes out.

Why did Touma acted like he don't know Misaka? Is it because he didn't expect that biribiri to be that pretty? lol

Another Index cameo.

I laughed out loud when Shirai bought the book for 10k yen.

Edit: WHOAA!!! I just realized that this means, this is a side by side story where Touma FORGETS about Misaka and everyone else. I can't believe I forgot such details!

Woooow, it was a lovely surprise that they throw in a Touma cameo after he had [Index spoiler]


Wonder what's up with Uiharu not knowing about the flower decoration on her head.

Mikoto in maid oufit and then a beautiful dress.. with the finishing Touma cameo. That's good enough for the boring parts before.

First I thought it was bit weird how Touma was acting but then it occurred to me that he lost his memories.
When Kuroko was admiring Misaka during the performance... I just so wanted to punch her right in the face haha :P

Wow, this was actually pretty bad. At least the other slice of life episodes took some advantage of the setting, the world of Raildex. Here, the only link to the setting was that the proceeds of the auction went to the Child Error orphanages. That's very, very weak. In any case, this was the most basic kind of festival episode that I could find in practically any nondescript high school anime. And getting to see Misaka play the violin in a dress does not justify the episode, even if it's nice to know that she has a hobby.

It's becoming harder and harder to ignore the gnawing feeling that this whole second cour of Railgun is a waste of resources and artistic effort that could have been used for something actually good. It's even failing at being good slice of life, because it does way too little to explore the setting in a meaningful way, and the main characters don't provide consistently good comedy or drama. Repeated harassment jokes, by themselves, aren't good comedy.

...it's pretty cute how excited Uiharu is about everything concerning Tokiwadai. I do have to admit, I'd enjoy that town too, though. Being somewhere that picture perfect in real life, would be quite a spectacle.

Heh, still, her enthusiasm the whole time makes me smile. She's definitely a character I like, Uiharu.

This episode would have benefitted from trying to capitalize on the famous anime tropes a little less, though. It seems like they favored content less than most fillers, assuming maid costumes would make up for it... This could have been used to provide more insight into the characters, honestly (or the world, for that matter) ... but was largely untouched. Well, I don't hate it, I just don't particularly find much to care about either.

Ugh, me too. I don't mind a standard shonen hero normally, but Touma is just a little too dull... not only does he have the personality of clay pottery, his "good guy-ness" is totally unbelievable and lame, and as cool as his power is in theory - it's boring too. They should maybe have had the foresight to predict that the power to "make things not happen" saps a lot of excitement out of any potential action scenes.

I like Railgun for lots of reasons, but my FAVORITE reason is that I don't have to have Touma on my screen... Usually... Don't get me wrong, he's got a couple cool scenes in Index and later in Railgun but ...just about anyone in his place would make it much cooler in every one of those scenes

I think all 4 of the girls make me laugh for different reasons... if cuteness was water this episode would be a flood.

Good to hear I'm not the only one who feels that way, to me he's just the most generic and boring protagonist I've seen so far. But adding to his attitude being generic, he also has a boring as fuck power as well. He wins every fight by pointing his right hand at the enemy and one-punching him/her to oblivion...

Ultimately, the episode is quite funny, but the best thing about this episode is that it shows characters from the Index series again, including the Maika character. Narration with really nice and very comic moments. Who knows if the next episode will have a self-contained story or a new narrative arc will open, I'm going to check immediately. Kongou always manages to stand out, for better or for worse. Quality of the drawings a little lower than the reference one.

Uiharu really likes rich girls.. And snakes.. ;p
Well, to be honest.. These activities of rich girls - like composing flowers, or working with needle, or reading in the library.. I feel that I wouldn't be able to enjoy all of them, really.. But they can be quite nice, if enjoying one or two, or three from these things..
Well, nice that children from previous episode actually return in anime again.. I mean, a bit unexpected.. Thought, we won't be touching them more.. But it seems they're more regular stayers now.. ;P Well, more characters to the show, I guess.. There are a lot of them for now, I guess.. But also not too much, for some reason..
Hm?.. Who is that heavy eater visitor is going to be?.. I wonder, if it's Index?.. ;P
What is that play where Misaka is going to participate?.. Lots of people anticipate it with eager.. Show, you're really hyping us for it.. I hope you won't play it out just as a joke in the end.. Though, you'll do, what you'll want..
Encounter with Touma made Misaka calmer.. Well, she switched her thoughts to other thing, and that's worked.. ;p I wouldn't say, though, that I like Touma's and Misaka's relationship or see any potential in it, really, though.. I'd prefer it to stay this way, really.. Unless they'll add something more to their relationship, because now it's strange, really, if it'd become love relationship on these grounds we have now.. I also enjoyed Touma more together with Index.. ;p
Well, it was Index the heavy eater visitor, guessed it right.. ;P And Misaka plays violin?.. Or some kind of that instrument.. Well, nice to know that she's good at that.. And she's also good with needle as well, as well as Saten.. Well, nice to get more about characters.. ;p Though, a bit hard to believe, how they're good at these things.. ;P
