I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| And once again, i can't believe that was a 20 minutes episode... so fast ;_; Itsuwa got a lot of screentime, and i'm pleased. Those nuns are batshit insane, i mean, stab your own ears!? ouch. I never though i'll say this but, i can't wait for the next episode!!! |
 Vrrrrroooooooommmm! |
| Itsuwa ive been waiting for your screen time.. after this ill have to wait long to see you again though ;/ |
| Wow, Index was actually useful in battle this time around o.O; Talk about a first. the end where the nuns poked out their own ear drums to avoid Index's spell is absurd though; talk about devotion. Makes my ears hurt just thinking about it (x.x) Pretty awesome episode this time, can't wait for next week. :o woo screenshots~ |

| Index's spell is epic The battle has just begun. |
 |
| Itsuwa is cool in battle and so cute, I'm waiting her relationships with Touma. Index is cool, too, her spells are more effective now. Anieze - ~kawaii~, Dark Shana is epic-epic-epic ^^ P.S. In light novels, nuns use only an earplugs without traumatizing ears, but some blood and horror in anime is awesome! This is the best episode in second season for me) Waiting for 5th. |
 |
| way better than expected. actually, I was really anxious about battle scenes and picture quality because they J.C staff are making many animes now. It's awsome of Kamijo-san to relentlessly buffet even a girl or kids if they're making a mistake! |

| As usual the battle is what makes this series good for me. I for one am happy the fan service toned because in my experiences it tends to seriously ruin all in animes. For the price of selling more.....sheesh *shakes head* Yeah the nuns are insane but they are just showing what devotion can do. Like someone mentioned in the LN they don't do that. |
| Yeah it's make me feel my ear hurting while thinking about that |
Nothing ventured, nothing gained (Girls und Panzer der Film ) / from Nishizumi Miho |
| Suddenly, she is useful! |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| he just punched a girl....a nun at that. although i would do the same thing.index has always been useful, she just doesn't need to use her power all the time |
| Just one word. Ouch. |
| That last scene looked painful going as far to stick out your own earplugs. Index does have some nice abilities after all besides the one that erased Toma's memory, she looked awesome like that. And it seems that none of the guys where gentlemen they all where hitting the nuns. My thoughts of Anieze dropped she was acting like a serious bitch this episode. |
| You know someone's brainwashed when they do crazy stuff like that. Ksa said: P.S. In light novels, nuns use only an earplugs without traumatizing ears, but some blood and horror in anime is awesome! Anime actually made an improvement? o.O |

Agreed and the ability SXF were nice that I agree with. Was just pointing out a reminder. No offence towards you. sry. |
| Holy shit, I got chills when they pierced their ears. |
| If only anyone in this freaking anime had a gun. It could have been so much easier. That and the author of Index seems to hate Catholics as much as I do. |
| Wow....Those girls are seriously messed up. Nice battle...and it's not even over yet. |
| Just when i thought Index could not fight o-olll |
     |
| Index II, episode 4 SCOREBOARD: More Religion BULLSHIT...................................-10 Stiyl and Mugen kicking some serious nun ass..........+5 Index actually being useful (I'M SHOCKED!!!)..........EVEN (she still horrible) Agnese Sanctis (RIE) as a villain..........................+1 Nuns bursting their ear drums with pens.................+5 (Crazy, but badass) Overall, this was probably my most enjoyable episode of the season so far, I hope it keeps up.....4/5 |
kisami said: index has always been useful, she just doesn't need to use her power all the time EXACTLY. C: holyshit they stabbed out their eardrums o_o talk about fanatical. |
| Very awesome episode, man Touma hits whoever he wants huh? Nice thinking by Stiyl to get in the battle. Index's Sheol Fear was sick as heck. The nuns stabbing their eardrums seemed painful as hell. alexcampos said: More Religion BULLSHIT...................................-10  |
 |
| WTF?!?! they stab themselves in the freakin ears religious psycho-bitch nuns!!! Can't wait for next week's episode hahahahaha!!!! Seriously man their fuckin crazy period. o_0 |
alexcampos said: Seriously?!? If you've actually watched the first season, you would know this isn't anything new. There have been religious references since episode 1 in the first season. At this point, I think you're just trolling since you already finished the Railgun OVA and have nothing better to do.Index II, episode 4 SCOREBOARD: More Religion BULLSHIT...................................-10 |

That and the author of Index seems to hate Catholics as much as I do. TheMetalOverlord said: I don't agree with you. The religious references could have been done better. For example the cheap ass fan service of episode 2 and make funs of religion are cheap like stabbing your ear drums in the name of devotion. If there are any reference of religion they should be more diverse than catholic. Like Celtic, Witchcraft, Shinto which episode 1 does good etc. Also where the heck are the science references? There is clearly a lack of them so far.alexcampos said: Seriously?!? If you've actually watched the first season, you would know this isn't anything new.

BTW, nice of you and the other FAIL idiot (Kenju) to only focus on that, when I clearly said this was an ENJOYABLE episode and I thought it was well done. I'm not a troll, I'm a CRITIC, I have a right to HATE horrible characters like Index, just like I have a right to analyze each episode as I see fit. and if you wouldn't have focused on the first line you would have noticed I acknowledged the fighting scenes and thought they were good, hell, I even acknowledged Index for finally doing something in her pathetic existence in this show. Whatever dude, I'll continue to be a CRITIC of this show, because to tell you the truth, I do like the story and MOST of the characters, to believe I do this out of spite or to simply troll is idiotic and a waste of my time. I do it because every season I usually focus my time on one or two shows, last season (summer) I focused on HOTD and K-ON season 2. This season I'm focused on Index II and Sora no Otoshimo Season 2. |
alexcampos said: Being a critic or not, taking away points for a show that based around both religion and science, mostly religion, for talking about some religious things that have to do with whats going on is like me taking away points from a Railgun episode because Misaka used her Railgun or they talked about some more science BS (see what I did there). Perhaps I jumped gun a bit since you said you enjoyed the episode, but still that first point is kinda, not sure how to say this, out of place.TheMetalOverlord said: alexcampos said: Seriously?!?

Hana-kei said: J.C. STAFF most likely treats this series as one of it's main ones for the season.way better than expected. actually, I was really anxious about battle scenes and picture quality because they J.C staff are making many animes now. Ckan said: It's more of messing with them spiritually. Their soul gets paralyzed.Contradictions in my doctrine make me squirm on the floor but self mutilation is nothing! - why is it so hard to take Index seriously? That said, great episode. Reminds me of how the series felt at the beginning of the first season until it suddenly got a little side-tracked during that whole Hyouka mess (and the fan-service episodes). This series always delivers with the main battles. And it's rather stupid of people to complain about all the religious stuff when the bloody premise is about an special nun who escaped from the church. Let's also not forget how the science side is actually secretly linked to the magicians since the creator of Academy City was the greatest magician in existence, according to Tsuchimikado. |

| Ok episode... nothing special but the unfolding of the events was well executed. Looking forward to the next episode. :) |

OK, sometimes I don't fully explain myself, when I said "more religion bullshit", I meant the idealogical crap that was spewing from the mouth of Agnese Sanctis, and then you had Stiyl say that the minute the cross was placed on Orsola she became part of the Anglican Church??? BEYOND RIDICULOUS, not only as a religion thing, but as a plot device... I don't mind that this anime has theological aspects which include the Anglican church, the roman catholics, or any other religion, but it's HOW they do it that annoys me and turns me off. But again, I found this episode to be better than the others, and the fight scenes were entertaining, overall it DID do it's job at keeping me amused and wanting to see the next episode and for that I applaud this episode. |
Army of Nun vs Amakusa catholic,Touma,Styll and Index = great battle. |
|
| <Insert comment about how the OP is awesome here> Eh, them crazy bitches are crazy. Yeah, let's stab our heads with pens, sounds like a great idea! |
| Protip: I don't really check the forums anymore, so if you want something, take it on my profile. Is it time for my long-awaited return to the forums? щ(ﾟДﾟщ) Nope™, probably not. |
TheMetalOverlord said: Oh yes! The juicy MILF of the OP. Hope she does something to make Misaka fall into Touma and accident ecchi or something like that.Yumekichi11 said: Though technically I have no idea since I have not read the light novels but we may see Misaka soon after this arc TheMetalOverlord said: Well that's good to know.

Index is only good in her guard mode but since Touma got rid of that somehow or I think he did....it just makes me :( not being to see Index like that. If spell interceptor is the only thing then it might get old fast.Army of Nun vs Amakusa catholic,Touma,Styll and Index = great battle.

Does that make you happy? |

| Now that's some magic those nuns used at the end xDD To poke your own ear drums is just ridiculous.. Anyway, can't wait for the next ep :o |
| why people always making fun of little index shame on you ;) |
 |
| That was a bit different from what I imagined when my friend told me about this part but that last part with the nuns was both disturbing and great. The cross issue though wasn't what I imagined but it was ok. The fights were really good this time. Wonder what'll happen next, I missed the next part of the story when my friend was talking about this :)) |
 |
| Man, this weren't as epic as i wanted it to be. Vol7 verdict: novel>anime. Oh well, there's still one op to end the arc. |
| レッツゴー ED イケイケゴーゴー |
