| hmm i wonder how he is going to get his memories back. they keep on circliing around it so i just wonder what kind of affect it is going to have. |
| Boring episode. Had a couple of good parts, but that was about it. At least next week's looks interesting, what with Touma covered in blood. |
| I reject your reality, and substitute my own. |
| Noto Mamiko <3333 anyways, great episode, i liked the fast pace this episode. so, i like how he is putting the innerside of the coin thing. sometimes it makes me feel like it has a relation to shana, but not really. lol, he called index in middle of a battlefield. gregorious choir seemed weird...... little light balls. "Bad Luck, Scarecrow" had me laughing for awhile." Izzard looks.... like a bad guy, no shit xD Miko time was awesome. she is awesome. noto mamiko is awesome. lol @ Aisa's magic wand.... xD alchemy is fearful magic.... lol, a touch in the head, and memories return xD haha, charms xD knights of round.... i chuckled. next episode seems awesome. kamijou covered in blood looks interesting. poor index, will she ever get out of trouble? i want miko to be in kamijou's harem. |
     |
| "Bad luck, scarecrow." and mamiko's magic wand makes up for irregular pacing. Looking forward to more :P |
| wow interesting ep that alchemist is like unbeatable O_O and his power is to reverse time? |
| Great episode as always. I dont see why so many people are confused by the explanations. They all make sense when thinking about them through the perspective of the world in which the anime is set. Although I do think this isn't going to be the kind of anime where its all about action (which is a GOOD thing), whats the point in having heaps and heaps of action in every single episode if there is absolutely no point in it? This anime manages to build on (what appears to be) an intellectual plot with action thrown in where it can be. Exactly what anime should have. Looking forward to the next episode now... |
 |
| The anime has become too wordy...oh well still a pleasant watch. |
| the anime is going slow... but the episode goes fast. |

Jacut said: Huh, yeah, I'm confused by this episode. By this show actually. It feels like there's something to grasp, but all the eps are so messy and slow that I can't seem to understand what's happening on the screen and the logic behind the characters' motivations. It was a decent episode though, with nice action scenes and some kind of development I guess. .... Very disturbing plot and characters. On top of that, some dialogues are really strange, I wonder if the translation is messed up or if they are like that in Japanese... Exactly my thoughts after watching this episode! naikou said: windy said: FROM WIKIPEDIA: (Regarding Stiyl) "Despite his looks, he is actually fourteen-years-old and ironically is physically weak." WHAT THE FUCKKKKKKKKKK IS THIS INFO RELIABLE?? SAY IT ISN'T SO! Yup, it's true. At least it makes his crush on Index less creepy, right? :-P *Schocking* 0_0 He definitely seems to be at least 10 years older. There has to be a mistake here... or some very odd character design! ;) |
 |
| i found the fights in this to be rather interesting id like to see how the final fight will be |
| The cat is gonna become a super saiyan and beat everything up. Oops, shoulda put spoiler tags there. |
     |
| I often wonder, if that so called revelations passage is real. Given the general demeanor of the book, I wouldn't doubt it. |
 Old avatar and sig retired for now. |
| Damn that was intense, the thirteen knights magic was cool |
 |
Laevantein said: Damn that was intense, the thirteen knights magic was cool Indeed, Holy bombardment, talk about an OP skill :P Laughed so hard when Stiyl said he had an escape plan and then Touma down the stairs and ran off xD |
| eh. I liked the upper cut. SHORYUKEN! and index is moe. I wish she was not a sister :_: |
| The pacing is a bit slow and the plot is confusing right now. Other than that it's pretty good. |
 |
| I wish Himegami will have a better role than that. This anime is just like dating sims but all the females become side-characters right after Touya saved them. :( |
Veronin said: Either I'm just too tired or things are getting kind of confusing. And Stiyl is ADORABLE. |
 |
| Fuck, Index is being held captive by that Aurelius Alchemist. Why did she go there in the first place?! Also, that Aurelius guy's power sure was impressive. Heck, he has like the power of the kings, the Geass. :> Wonder how Touma remembered that their mission was to rescue Deep Blood if the Alchemist brain washed them. Also, what the fuck is a Gregorio Choir? Were those knights trying to destroy Aurelious's building but failed because Aurelious showed his true powers? The heck man. Also, it seems to be Aurelius knows Index before. They must have met before but Index just forgot since her memories got erased or something. Plus, Index was getting suspicious at Touma because of the Pudding incident. Wonder what's going to happen. |

 |
| Never would have thought they knew each other. |
| I love how the fire dude gets all nervous and then says " She is not a target for Romance" xD |
| The conversation that Touma and Index were having on the phone was hilarious. Now I want pudding. XD LMAO @ Aisa and her magic wand. That was one awesome powerful attack that the Thirteen Knights had. billng said: I love how the fire dude gets all nervous and then says " She is not a target for Romance" xD Yeah, that was funny. |
 |
| Great episode, though things were happening so fast sometimes it made me dizzy. XD Everything is flowing coherently, it just felt like there was no pause in the action - which I suppose can be a good thing! Obviously Imagine Breaker is more powerful than whatever skillz the alchemists use... which isn't surprising, since in the last episode, Stiyl was saying that the alchemists can make what they imagine a reality, and Touma's skill is Imagine Breaker... Not that it was named for that reason or anything though. Aisa amused me... and was cool. :> |
| I'm so confused right now. What the fuck is the plot in all this? |
 |
Well that was a miserable failure. Not the episode per se, but the campaign to rescue Deep Blood. Not only did they NOT get her, Index gets kidnapped too and they get kicked the hell out of there. Oh well, try, try again if at first you don't succeed. Though it appears the alchemist is going to be one HELL of a problem. |
 |
| Now another villain who's after Index! This time it's a creepy alchemist who tried to erase even more of Touma's memory. Good thing he failed though. =P Next episode will be a bloody one it seems! :O |
 |
| that guy holding index is a pedo <.< |

     |
| Just one question, where the hell is Misaka? I thought she was an MC? |
| That sure took a weird turn, nice story development and epic ending! Lets see what's next though! |
 |
| He knocked him out in order for him to remember, now that's what I call creative. |
| I like Hentai, you like real life. Instead of complaining about my tastes, be grateful you now don't have to compete against me. |
| I lied when I said I liked Index better than Railgun. |
| What an epic episode. Awesome spells as well. I just can't get enough of this anime! |
  |
| Very interesting seeing how this arc compares to the light novel. I wouldn't say that the first arc was without flaw, but it was definitely a much more faithful adaption than this one. But this arc is also a lot more complex in the source, so I guess that's to be expected. Still, it's a lot more enjoyable watching this anime after reading the LN. Having a better understanding of what's going on and seeing it happen in animation really does make everything worthwhile. |
| shit just getting real.. when the sky became red its so awesome :3 |
| Aww man.. why dud she end up in their hands. That is a bit frustrating. I'm still unsure about his loss of memory which hurts a bit. Anyways I liked the way he dispelled the memory loss with a punch :D. |
 |
| Best episode so far.. Dat laughing Touma.. Love it! |
 |
| Best episode so far! Dat laughing Touma. Badass! Oh, and loved that punch :D Starting to realy like this anime |
|
| Good job Index. You were saved once, and now you throw yourself into another villain's hands. |
| Ugh this show is frustrating me. The storyline is just all over the place...and nowhere near as good as Railgun. Hope it gets better. :( |
 |
Yatsura said: When you say all over the place, you mean they change villains and arcs every four eps, or earlier, that dont seem to connect?Ugh this show is frustrating me. The storyline is just all over the place...and nowhere near as good as Railgun. Hope it gets better. :( How is that different from railgun? |
| Mmm, I didn't really understood what is that Ars Magna. Is he able to control everything that his in the building surrounding? Was Touma, Stiyl and Index victims of hypnosis? Anyway, eventful but confusing episode. There was so much things happening : an asault, the weird Gregorio chant, the encounter with the target, the encounter with the enemy, the mind eraser, Index capture, mind eraser neutralized... Even some devellopment with Stiyl, it felt like it could have been paced in two episodes. |

| Damn cliff |
| Another mediocre episode. I am looking forward to the clash next episode. A little to much dialogue. |
| It was OK. Nothing really happened. |
