Synopsis

The Daihasei Festival has begun, and that of course means that Tokiwadai Middle School—a prestigious all-girls' middle school—is competing too. Despite the participation of the "Ace of Tokiwadai," Mikoto Misaka, the other students who are participating are still putting their utmost effort into winning, no matter how impossible the feat may seem against her overwhelming might.

However, not all is fun and games. Due to the festival, Academy City opens to the outside world, and various factions have begun plotting ways to infiltrate the city. Misaka appears to be on their radar, and as the festival proceeds, people lurking from the shadows begin to emerge...

Toaru Kagaku no Railgun T brings back the Tokiwadai Ace and her friends as they dive deeper into the dark side of Academy City. From terrorist attacks to ruthless underground projects, anything is possible in this city.

This series does an incredible job of exploring the following themes: autonomy, identity, the ethics of scientific progress, and personal reality.

Misaka Mikoto is naturally a charismatic and powerful protagonist living within a futuristic city and its many dystopian secrets. Her captivation lies within her electrifying abilities as an Esper, and in her personal journey through adolescence. While there is plenty of exciting action throughout the anime, it is Mikoto's inner conflicts that drive the story in a meaningful direction. Her innately positive beliefs regarding the principles and mysteries within Academy City provide a strong dynamic to her character. This is due to her convictions and ...

Railgun T starts of a BANG this season. It's really great seeing finally another Level 5 being involved. Tho instead of one we get two. Sadly the first arc Misaka is used by the antagonist but at the first arc she has to deal with her friends being manipulated or hurt.

Masaki I thought from Railgun S to be a villain type character in the future considering how much power she has, but we see a side we didn't expect to see from her in Railgun T. She immediatly became one of my favorite characters and came in clutch at the end.
Also some lower level characters ...

Kinda pissed at myself for dropping it so early on though in my defense it was mostly due to lack of time from my part rather than the quality of the show. As I've grown older, manga has become a much more viable guilty please than anime as it takes up significantly less time and it's easier to read a few chapters in your spare time than finishing an episode. That said, I'm glad I finally got around to watching this.

---STORY 8/10---
I found the overall plot to be a lot more solid and interesting compared to, particularly S. They managed to find a good balance ... between serious episodes and more easygoing episodes. The story isn't too complex and it often feels like your average shounen but I like how it consistently manages to raise some interesting questions about morality v. medical advances, this isn't really exclusive to this season though.

---ART 8/10---
The art isn't anything out of this world but it's not bad either and there were definitely some improvements from the previous seasons. My only complaint is the same complaint I've often had with this and many other anime: unnecessary fanservice shots. Hated it in my teens, hate it now in my 20s. It really ruins the experience for me sometimes but I understand that it's an issue that has more to do with the anime industry than this actual show (also, it felt less heavy on fan service than S so I'll let it slide).

---SOUND 9/10---
I love the railgun soundtrack, they're not songs i'd listen to in my free time but they set the tone for the show perfectly.

---CHARACTERS 10/10---
Here's where this show truly stands out. Not only is it a shounen anime composed of a mainly female cast but the way this season explored other characters' wishes and motivations as well as just giving them cute side-plots was what I loved the most about T.

As usual, Kuroko always manages to make me laugh with her antics but is also a hero to root for when it's needed from her. I'm happy we got to see a *lot* more of her than in the previous seasons, I am eternally grateful and will treasure the amount of screen-time she got. Not just her though, I was so happy to see two of my other favorite characters Kongou Mitsuko and Shokuhou Misaki unravel this season. All three were the obvious MVPs but I wouldn't call Misaka a weak protagonist either, I'm just very biased. The side plot with Saten in the second half was also very sweet.

---ENJOYMENT 10/10---
VERY HIGH
School festival arcs are ALWAYS fun and we got to see a lot of fun combinations I didn't even consider possible.

---OVERALL 9/10---

All in all, the best to aru season of the best to aru show.
