THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Not much about this OVA... Misaka feels like someone is stalking her, she found Touma and says he is the one doing that. Touma obviously doesn't know what's happening. The episode goes on an on on the same thing, till Kuroko notices one chick from the Judgement (?) has a device doing that. Misaka defeats her, and done.
Nice OP and the ED does look like your average OVA ending...
4 of 5 i think is enough for this.

Vrrrrroooooooommmm!

Entertaining, but the ultimate reveal of who the "villain" was ended up being a disappointment.

Plot is pretty weak, of course that's expected. But it's nice to see some railgun action again after so long.

Anyways why isn't this week's Index out yet? come on subbers!

I don't expect much from Index II so I was really looking forward to this, it certainly wasn't at par with Railgun's best episodes but nonetheless still a good OVA. Sadly the villain was really lame but who cares... Uiharu was awesome at the end and made up for it.

I liked this OVA, it reminded me why i like Railgun over Index.
Still there both pretty good.
For a OVA this was very good especially considering that most OVA's lately are almost all swim or hot spring episodes.
It's one of the better OVA's i seen.

One thing it needed more tho is angry Misaka i like her sparkles!!

Completely agree. I still prefer Railgun over Index, and this is probably why I decided to watch this OVA before Index II Ep. 4 even though subs for both are available to me at pretty much the same time...

Also, the new OP and ED for this OVA are definitely a plus. Really love the OP sequence. I can just keep watching that for the whole night!

I'm also a bigger fan of Railgun rather than index...

and this episode was a perfect example, In Railgun we never have to deal with idiotic religion BS that index is so obsessed with, Railgun is also more enjoyable and of course we get to see BiriBiri as the main character.

The OVA was nice, I would've wished for a more laid back episode but this still leaves me wanting SEASON 2!!!

Anyway, the episode was okay. I lol'd at the "Truth" part. I like how they're making full use of Misaka's electromagnetic powers by having her glide all over the place too. That said, I knew very early that it was an electromagnetic wave... and the eventual reveal of the culprit was quite weak.

Decent OVA 7/10

Is this supposed to be a funny or clever way to get at me?? or the show???

You know the funny thing is that, Index SHOULD BE BETTER THAN RAILGUN, this shouldn't be a competition, remember Railgun is a Spinoff from Index.

The fact that there are so many people divided is an sad reality that Index hasn't delivered on many aspects such as Character likability, Smooth storyline, and overall enjoyability.

You know, I'm not an Index anime hater, how could I hate it, BiriBiri is on it, Kuroko is on it, Accelerator is on it, the great stories form those characters is what made me want to continue watching index II.

HOWEVER, when the main female character is the WORST character in the whole series, you have problems, when the story structure is so discombobulated that many people get lost on what the plot even is.....you have problems.

Having lesbians in a Anime is a bad thing?

Only arguable point i can think of is that Religion is a touchy subject and there will always be some to argue about it.
Other then that i agree with you that most people are just trying justify why they do like or do not like one of these Anime.
And most of the people that did mention religion, just said there was to much religious shit but did not mention actual religious points that they disliked.
In other words they where just short sighted or trying to provoke the people who did agree with the points mentioned.

In the end both Anime are very similar and just look at things from a different perspective and from a different characters point of view.
There both good Anime and the one that you think is better is just a mater of personal taste.

It was great like the 9/10 said. Missed this series a lot and in fact the characters Uiharu, Saten, Misaka and Kuroko. I noticed not many paid attention to the parody of the Biribiri comic joke at the following part

nor did anyone catch the playboy reference in the spoiler

for me the railgun that blew the boat was the peak of all. The fan service was a plus in regards to a good view of Saten's body. Yes, Misaka was good to for the fan service problem is that Saten was not shown enough so it was better.

I loved it! Being a biribiri fanboy, my reasonings will obviously be biased, but I couldn't help get the awesome goosebumps feeling when the OP kicked off and the final railgun blast.

Can't get enough of the railgun blast.

Speaking of the OP I though they did a good job with the new OP itself incorporating like it was filmed but the ED was less fun other than the art pics present in it.
