kisami said:

other than the fact that you have suffer hundreds of cruel and painful death by the hand of Accelerator (i.e. reversing your blood flow)

DeathfireD said:

or the fact that once the real you dies all the others will too. They're not really immortal their just clones.

Accelerator can change the direction of vectors? That's some hardcore shit.


Oh, why hello there.

I dont know whether Accelerator is evil or just an asshole

roysen said:
I'm still troubled by Touma's memory loss and way of dealing with it.

Dunno, but shouldn't a person be more troubled by such a loss of memories? Why does Touma, most of the time, seem like he doesn't give a shit? Ugh -

I diasgree Jade Matrix, I think that you'll see with people who are in the early stages of Altzheimer's, where they are aware that they have forgotten people and places and things, when they are confronted with something they have forgotten, it is very distressing and mentally exhausting. I think it is a testament to crappy writing, trying to make Touma a blank slate that makes his laisse faire attitude disturbing. I can't think of many cases, in TV, anime, or movies where a character has lost his memory and taken it as well as Touma. It's just lazy writing.

noteDhero said:
Also, I would think that if one is distressed over selective memory loss, they would also be much more so over massive memory loss...people saying they know you and you don't remember, etc.

noteDhero said:
What about the coma analogy? There should be distress over the fact that you have 2+ weeks wiped away, and that the cause is this annoying little girl that you are continuously jumping through hoops over. It's bad execution of his character to not explain that, he gets annoyed over such little minutae like taking in a cat, or food getting eaten up, but the girl causing him memory loss? Does not compute.

JadeMatrix said:
I'd pass it as some kind of inverted drama. Big life-changing experiences, like taking in a mysterious girl (for a reason unknown thanks to memory wipe) or fighting mages who 'aren't supposed to exist,' are things that need to be believed can only be believed or not believed if you're told you've done them.With the memori lost one can doubt endlessly as well as only trust with their eyes what they can see since the memory itself is not reliable t all. However, his personality is still intact, so he can get annoyed by 'minutæ.' Touma also seems to have a rather laid-back personality, as in 'not much I can do since it already happened.'Indeed the personality in terms of character did not change just the system dealing with it and how it deals with it. The point is there may be only a 10%~20% variation because most of Touma's personality is conserved from what we know about since episode one. (Yes, this applied to Index's memory, too. The reason he didn't give up was because there was always (in his mind) the option of erasing the 103,000 grimores.) I mean, how much anxiety did he show when he found out that magic existed? Or how about when MISAKA #whatever died — he didn't emo-ote* for too long, especially after he found out that MISAKA was basically a hive mind.Major trauma affected Touma and he never gave up because his personality is always caring, you all should know that with the way Misaka was acting and Touma not wanting to even punch her yet he could have.

* not the right word, not even a word, but works well enough

If there's one thing we need to be glad about the mind wipe is that it seems to have deleted the "Must do drawn out moral speeches to every enemy I encounter" directive from his mind.

JadeMatrix said:
Only because he hasn't needed to. Izzard was kinda... I guess he didn't need one, since he wasn't hurting anyone per se. Anyways, I thought that Touma's speeches were kinda badass, at least when compared to someone else's.

Leon-Gun said:
Well, at the very least Touma has some actual power "of his own" backing his words.

Eternal_Blaze said:
Decent episode. Mostly developments though, with the discovery of the Sisters and the Level 6 project. I can't wait until Accelerator faces off with Touma.

And somewhat unrelated to this episode: I'd like to see some events crossing over with To Aru Kagaku no Railgun in the future. I mean, Saten and Uiharu both appear in the intro, so I'm hoping they actually appear in the show itself sometime later.

DaBigD said:
The amount of delicious legs in this episode makes watching it worthwhile. So they're trying to make Accelerator into Lv.6, eh? I don't know why they would try, seeing he is pretty much unbeatable anyway.

So if you one MISAKA to like you then... BOOM! Instant Harem!
