| It's an ok episode. Looks like Touma will be fighting Oriana next episode. |
 |
| Good episode about what Oriana can do in terms of nasty traps such as using elementals as in the beam traps looked like the light element and the earth ones were of that spike ball with the huge mud slide whom Touma did a magnificent job of dispelling but the worst was the back fire towards Magnus when he tried to track down Oriana. Rather nasty since he could have burned to death if Touma did not save him. As for the rest of the first half, it was very enjoyable OST at some points and Tsuchimikado's wound is rather nasty! Really nasty. For the second part, Touma saves another girl, which I wonder if she will be a new character or just another random one. Misaka Railgun again, heck yeah! However, I must say I loved Misaka Mikoto's reactions especially the following one: that was the best of bests for Misaka x Touma! I as a fan am very satisfied with that moment. Poor Fukiyose being hurt by Oriana! K, that Oriana is now going to get a Touma beating and I fully team up again with Touma despite my disliking of Touma's other female target against Oriana. Beauty needs a Touma fist! She will not get away with hurting the Fukiyose! Fukiyose being is far better with her breasts than a older one like Oriana IMO. |

| Yay! Touma can finally punch another girl next episode! |
 |
| I liked Fukiyose, seeing her collapse wasn't nice. Misaka's face with Touma was priceless as always. Tsuchimikado is awesome. Any episode involving him I fully endorse. I'm not gay, but if he was real, I might be. Shame he coughs up blood anytime he uses magic, would love to see his real fighting potential. But his martial arts seems to be pretty ace itself. |
  |
| Stiyl sacrificing himself for that spell truly shows his dedication as a magician. Oriana involving people who have nothing to do with her objectives is very selfish of her. And Fukiyose getting hurt because of that is very sad she was working so hard as a committee member and to let everyone enjoy the event. The Touma and Misaka misunderstanding moment was nice to watch, i really love Misaka's face when she is shy. Also there school event gives extreme sports a new meaning. |
| Just like in the novel. <3 But some moments seemed really...derp...lol  |
Kingwel said: But some moments seemed really...derp...lol Yep |
| I will never get tired of Misaka x Touma moments, Misaka's faces are always priceless during these scenes.. poor Fukiyose, but I would preferred if it was Misaka in her position.. X3 lol, looks like Touma's falcon punch and sermon is already set to make another appearance.. orz |
 |
| Man... Fukiyose... |

| lol, second half was good. I felt like i was watching what i thought made season one awesome. Less fanservice, more magic, and Misaka made this episode one of the best so far. (Excellent 9/10) Oh wow it is the highest i have rated an episode yet -.- |

| Loved the Misaka x Touma moment. Next episode Touma´s revenge for Fukiyose! Inarius said: Lol! Not a loli but it´s a woman. |

(Now besides the image breaker it´s a loli converter.) |
| great episode I already love this arc^^ |
 |
| This Anime is heading into the direction of Elfen Lied... Did anyone noticed Touma called Misaka by her name instead of Biribiri? |

| Awesome eps ^.^ Misaka face is priceless <3 And I'm waiting for Tsuchimikado to show off.. Although Touma will end this with his fist :X |
Zutto Anime, Game, Manga!  |
Dan777 said: I love how Styil and Tsuchimikado just use Touma as a human shield without caring if he blocks it or not. I bet he felt like a right idiot when he realised it was the wrong pole but oh well it made more ToumaxMikoto and with her attacking him only a little and her having a nice reaction to him getting close Mikoto's railgun seems kinda weak considering the poles whitere only damaged instead of being blown in half. Not sure if she used coins for that railgun. Also if it was blown up, it would hurt Touma |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| nice episode ^_^ haha, Kongo is in it too illusion breaking is now considered loli punching |

| While I like the variety, magic spells in Index are always really hard to follow, I feel. I don't know if I'm missing some fundamental aspects or they really are just so full of techno (magico?) babble. Can someone explain what she's doing special with this shorthand technique that's so different from every other incantation, spell circle, or whatever? |

Can someone explain what she's doing special with this shorthand technique that's so different from every other incantation, spell circle, or whatever? She has a notepad with pre-written spells on it. She can tear off the paper to activate the spell instantly for traps and other evasive spells and such(among other things, as shown), the catch is she can only use each spell once, since it's not a proper "magic book" as they call it. |

Inarius said: Hahahahahaha.....thank you Inarius your awesome dude, awesome |
| I know it will never happen, but I would really love to see Misaka go all Railgun on Oriana. |
 |
| Not the greatest episode but pleasing as it was. I liked getting to see Komoe-sensei again, however that only lasted a minute or so. (-.-) (Index as well, now that I think about it) I loved the Misaka and Touma scene on the field. Very clever! Poor Fukiyose being thrown into a situation that was the exact opposite of her goal! (Y.Y) Next week looks like we might pick back up again! Looking forward to the next! |
| I'm very pleased with this week's episode....A LOT BETTER than the nonsense from last week. It seems like every female in this anime gets the shit beaten out of them on a regular basis... I'm looking forward to next week, and my impression of Index II is slowly getting better and better. Who knows I might actually give this a 7 or 8....as compared to the first episodes which were GOD HORRIBLE. |

| The whole scene with Misaka and Touma was just plain ass stupid as hell. Instead of repeating "IT'S DANGEROUS OVER THERE COME OVER HERE" multiple times, Touma could've just said "DON'T TOUCH THAT MOTHERFUCKING POLE" and just ran up to it and checked it which will inevitably result in Fukiyose not getting pwned. But of course, for the sake of pandering to the audience, they had to showcase Misaka's tsundere at least once. |

That hot woman thomson is really good at setting traps!! |

I agree the whole scene was unnecessary and another example of this show damn near destroying Mikoto's reputation by making her look like a complete IDIOT at times. I don't mind the occasional blushing scene between them, but that was VERY ridiculous. One of the big reasons why I came to like Railgun more than Index, is because Mikoto is a completely different person when she's not around Touma, she's more badass, she more down to earth, and overall she's a better character when she's not acting like an overused Tsundere. |

Can someone explain what she's doing special with this shorthand technique that's so different from every other incantation, spell circle, or whatever? yeah it was hard to follow in this episode, though it's tough to say whether it's a translation issue or what. The gist I got is that she imparts some knowledge of magic onto paper by shorthand writing, which involves two things. First, the paper serves as the caster rather than the magician. Second, she imparts analysis of the current situation and decision-making rules to the paper. The way I interpret it is that she's created something like a "sentry", which follows basic rules to perform different magic based on the situation. If I'm interpreting it right, it seems really interesting in contrast to magic like Stiyl's, which takes prep work in a given area. Overall a really good episode, but Tsuchimikado looks better with his Hawaiian shirt. I definitely liked seeing many different kinds of magic used instead of the same thing over and over. Misaka was lots of fun too. |

DuroDeMatar said: Yeah that's the good part. It should be "Fuck with my big breasted girl will you bitch?" Let's see how you'll feel after I punch you next episode" Yeah that's it! That's what it should be! Inarius said: Lol! Not a loli but it´s a woman. Confucius said: Hey, anything that makes Misaka x Touma is the best. I think Misaka being ready for a kiss from Touma proves a lot more.This Anime is heading into the direction of Elfen Lied... Did anyone noticed Touma called Misaka by her name instead of Biribiri?  alexcampos said: I agree too but love can you make be a idiot at some points. Some friends of mines are completely different when with a girl, especially with their gf for some of them.alexcampos said: Well if the ridiculous leads to a pleasant reaction for fans of Misaka x Touma then it's all good to me I say but perhaps to you if it overspills the soup it's bad.I don't mind the occasional blushing scene between them, but that was VERY ridiculous. alexcampos said: That's because her love is not affecting her, maybe that's why you don't like Touma around Mikoto, it shows a side of Mikoto that is nothing of her badass side at all.One of the big reasons why I came to like Railgun more than Index, is because Mikoto is a completely different person when she's not around Touma, she's more badass, she more down to earth, and overall she's a better character when she's not acting like an overused Tsundere. |

| Just like in novel. <3 |
| レッツゴー ED イケイケゴーゴー |
| it was ok ep as already mentioned the toma x Misaka was fail. Railgun>Index :o |

Wasabi said: Exactly my thought^^The whole scene with Misaka and Touma was just plain ass stupid as hell.

But of course, for the sake of pandering to the audience, they had to showcase Misaka's tsundere at least once. Touma really isn't the most brilliant guy, I mean for instance he got one useful trait, to dispel magic and esper abilities. But people still need to bloody remind him to use it all the time -.-' The whole episode was filled with unnecessary forced scenes imho and there was just way too much hypocrite Touma screen time as well. Bad episode is bad ^^ |
