THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
It's Touma!

Ya, I see the Imagine Breaker. Well, I kinda remember this from Index. Misaka laughs at Touma for losing money ahahaha. Oh wait. Also, is this the first time that Saten and Touma are in the same show?

Oh God Kuroko silly you, getting over exaggerated just like I kinda expected.

>Misaka clone spotted
Poor Misaka ;.;


I see Accelerator this episode, nice.
I think he's wearing a new shirt and sweater. Anyways, nice to see him imo. Being the strongest level 5 Esper in Academy City is tough. Oh and look, his apartment isn't trashed up than I originally had thought.

I enjoyed the episode overall. Kuroko is so priceless with her face expressions hahaha. I definitely like her devotion to her oneesama though.

New ending!!!! Maybe a new opening next time too? Anyways cool episode once again. Judging from the preview next episode will be Touma + Imouto mostly so the fight vs Accelator should be 3 eps away?

PS> Kuroko+ Misaka super cute as always <3

OP2 title hasn't announced yet, and OP of To Aru series usually continued until the middle of 2nd cour, so I don't think it would changed yet.

Raw:
I never thought that The Misaka Network was so....colorful...

I like that they started Accelerator's past here,that way it wont "mess" the fight much.

I just noticed that the eyes of MISAKA are slightly different in color.Although I prefer how they were in Index,I guess it is fine as long as they are different.Still th eIndex version is better for comedy.
After memory loss Touma is hilarious.
Kuroko's reactions were win.

Too bad that they cut some/one vending machine scenes.

Welll that because he wasnt

Although it could be a different apartment,the couch and bed are positioned similar to those of Index.

Based TouMAN is here! So much for some thinking that they'll just recycle the clips from Index.
This is quite fun as I'm rereading vol3 of the LN and I'm seeing the other side of the story here in the anime. Well it is the other side of the story and not a different version that some might think(removing TouMAN's involvement, making the other girls relevant, etc.) inb4 Railgun is a standalone and separate from Index.
That despair from Misaka. Really good job from Satou Rina. Yes Misaka, the enemy is Academy City itself. It always was and always will be.
And I can see people complaining about Accelerator's past here in terms of its relevance and importance to his character.
New ED huh. Didn't pay much attention as I don't listen to it. But Misaka and Touma in there. More fuel to add to the fire!! >_>
Great episode. A few more episodes till the big event. Should be fun.

Now time to watch that camrip of the Index movie...

and so begins another week of waiting. I'm not sure how i feel about the imouto's eyes. their nice but im not sure if i perfer them over the older ones. might have liked them better if the eyes changed over once the imouto's started thinking for themselves.

Woah nostalgia trip, the vending machine scene! :D

After watching this episode, I'm watching back the Index version of the same scene. I glad they keep the difference which is interesting.
In Index it much more fun because of Touma's perspective who just lost his memories before while in this ep it feel laid back because Mikoto's perspective who just recovered from her nightmare.... which haunt back because of her clone appearance & also Kuroko's thought.

Accel's backstory which from the tankoubon added to this ep feel weird at first but it make sense at that scene. They cut some part though, probably will animate the rest during the fight. Wait.... they


Nice song. Lol that is really shippy at the end, didn't expect that. XD

They didnt cut some part, they cut half of it.They will definitely animate all of his Railgun backstory.Oh wait ,here take some irrelevant Sol scenes...That would be bad...

Yes the censor bar was so bad.

Well they cut half of it, but what I refer is the scene where Accel reflected back a brick to some guy's face who tried to attack him during the negotiation part.

After this I don't think there will be any problem with the "retold" episodes boring anyone or bringing the quality of the season down(not that I'm one of the ones that ever thought it would). Even with exact replicate scenes, just having Misaka's perspective with a fitting direction for the tone of this season is interesting enough. Having the extra dialogue in places keeps the comedic parts entertaining for all of us that watched Index, and showing scenes from different angles and different direction(10031 helping Touma with the cans) keeps the animation fresh and the tone consistent.

And man am I glad to see Touma, but I'm still very stuck on seeing the rest of the arc from Misaka's perspective, especially after the bone chillingly well done scenes with 10031 and Kuroko.

Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.
Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel.
The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck.

And lol oh so that's why she's got a grudge against that vending machine. Haha ten thousand yen.

Kind of a boring episode, more like a filler. But i feel it was necessary.
From watching Index i kinda liked the Accelaretor but now i hate him more than anyone else and it really pains me to see Misaka doing all of this alone :( she should just tell Kuroko and after that i doubt Kuroko would want to protect her beloved Academy City anymore.

That's why the introduction of Touma is very important. Misaka is not alone anymore and the ending picture emphasized on that

Accelerator is a prick and he will get his punishment in due time. This episode touched a bit on the reason Accelerator participated in the project. He wants to be an "absolute power so no one can even dream of taking him on."

Vending Machine scene <3

Touma!!!!!!!!

There's barely any action in this episode and its still epic.

They've changed some things that made it better than the Manga.

Holy mother of adaptation, can't wait for the next episode.

I can't wait to see the Touma x Misaka scene in the bridge again.

Didn't even notice that there's a new ED since stand still is already in my playlist for like a month now.

Anyways, 5/5 episode

So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.
