If it's 2 cour, DRAGON. If it's 3 cour, obviously WW3. Lots of good volumes, but NT is the real prize I want to see after this.

Obviously WW3, finally where Misaka will have some decent screentime, well that's not the main case, the battle with Fiamma, really can't wait but don't think s3 will cover it. If for what might certainly happen arc in England. Can't wait to see New light and Leviniya (even for a moment). Don't think dropping the names are much of a spoiler =/

season 1 adapted volume 1 to 6 while S2 had volume 7 to 13 i wish for it to have like 60+ episodes due to the fact that World War 3 arc had a lot of good parts in it and covering the other arcs like Document of Constantine Arc,Battle Royale Arc,Acqua of the Back Arc and British Royal Family Arc to be included cause this arcs had a lot impact to the characters especially to the three Protagonist Kamijou Touma,Accelerator and Hamazura Shiage as these arcs are just the beginning of the world that we will see in New Testament

@allenjke @BlackFIFA19 @Yamato_2199_Fan @littlegiant9330

if its like the last 2 seasons with 24-25 episodes

lets have some realistic expectations now.

document of Constantine is 1 volume with 328 pages some of it filler (perhaps 10 or 9 pages) but a large amount is important.

Battle royal is also 1 volume however its VERY LONG 360 pages long to be exact with no filler i could see them cutting out without ruining the arc

i can see aqua of the back being the mid season finale with 1 volume and 344 pages.

next is SS2 (hopefully they treat it better then SS) with 248 pages it has some stuff that set up for NT so i hope they don't cut it out.

after that is the British Halloween. which is the 2nd longest arc of the OT the first volume is 392 pages the second volume is 424! pages

after that we have dragon arc or they might splice it in at the same time as the British Halloween arc the dragon arc is 1 volume with
376 pages

it takes them usually 5 episodes to get through the 1 volume arcs

document of Constantine will probably follow that pattern with 5 episodes (unless they butcher it like they did with angel fall and cut out a giant section.)

battle royal might be more then 5 episodes to complete without butchering it.

after that is aqua of the back with 5 episodes,

so thats 15 episode mark with maybe some more for battle royal.

now i estimate that the British Halloween will dominate the rest of a 2 cour season

with at lest 10 episodes.

so that would make 25 (it would also leave us on a very dark cliff hanger.)


now WW3 if they want to do a proper job of it will not be in season 2 unless they make the series similar to how Duarara 2 was don and make a bunch of seasons planned out over a large amount of time.

the first volume of WW3 is 376 pages

second one is 328 pages

and the third is 328 also pages

they could very easily make this a 2 part movie if they wanted to. or decitcate a entire season to it.


however i can say for sure WE will not be getting the Othinus



almost every volume in NT is 400 pages

and othinus arc does not start until volume 8 and finishes on volume 10

World War III for sure.

I also want to see Dark Matter being animated especially during his fight against Accelerator.

More Mugino would be nice to see since we got see a bit of her in Railgun Season 2.

It'll be rushed like S1 and S2 by putting in 6/7 volumes in 24 episodes :v
so they'll rush the shit out of it and adapt all of OT or make movies for WW3 Arc,

I really dont care, i just hope that one day i will get my Othinus Arc animated even if it'll be rushed :v

it won't be rushed if they plan on making a full series adaptation of the entire Toaruverse. maybe we will get the same director who did the sister arc for railgun :D.

ether way i just hope its not rushed horribly.

thats why im not wanting them to rush to WW3 as there are a lot of arcs i like before that arc.

like battle royal i'll be very disappointed if that arc is butchered as badly as angel fall. ( i do hope they fix Kinuhata saiai personality and make her more lively and not deadpan.)

i also want them to do a good job on the aqua battle as that was a very cool fight in the novel.

About Angel Fall arc being rushed you mean that serial killer stuff that was cut out. I mean it could've been better, but i understand why they decided to do that and that it would've been so complicated. With that i thought it was not that bad. On the other hand rushing BR arc would probably a disaster. Same is for the Aqua's fight. As much as i love British royal arc i think there would be some things that won't be shown, and i highly doubt SS2 will be animated so some characters won't have appearance at all.
About WW3 don't know how good would it be to divide into movies. As always for the movies would be hard to follow and well with 3 movies it will be 1,5 years at least.
Oh and about Kinuhata, didn't she start showing some emotions after working with Hamazura, she had pretty much the work of apprehending Nunotaba.

Forgot about that, would be really interesting to see the reaction, but the cliffhanger after WW3 might be more impactful.

You'd get Gunha in Railgun season 3 as well though if it covers the Daiheisai arc.

They might avoid it to prevent it from becoming too much like Railgun S. Mikoto saved by Touma twice in a row would be a bit repetetive. Need some kind of buffer in-between Sisters arc and Daiheisai arc, I think. But who knows...


Also, I wonder if they make WW3 into a movie trilogy. Or OVA series like Hellsing Ultimate.

I think they would do something like

Volume 14 -> ep 1->3

Volume 16 -> ep 10->12/13
Volume 17/18 -> ep 13/14 -> ep 20
Volume 19 -> ep 21 -> ep 25

If this is a 3-cour Volume 20-21-22 will do ep 26-> (36 to 39 depening on how episodes they want to make)

And some special for the SS2 volume (I have a lot of hype to see the scenes with Gunha/ollerus animated from this volume)

I'm hoping also an oav for the Kanzaki North Relevant SS since it's relevant to do this before NT but it will not be done anytime soon I guess

That's a mistranslation, as expected from Facebook. They're talking about Kamachi coming to meetings for the LN and he'll have volumes written ahead of time. Miki's comments and some Japanese news sites believe that this is gonna wrap up OT because they need to move onto NT. This is further emphasized by the fact that they're bundling NT1-16 in a box set soon to try and get people caught up quickly.

I'm really hope for three cour 'till the end of Old Testament, if could be done in Split Cour just like Durarara X2.
I'm most interested in Battle Royale Arc (because mah boy Hamazura & chaos in the Dark Side of Academy City) & World War III Arc (everyone together at the end)

We'll got news on 10 March later, really hope they announce episode count aside PV & Staff.

its been in work since 2013? and they don't have a single trailer with new visuals yet..........

It's following tradition, that's for sure. Index 2 didn't get a PV until about 3 or 4 months before it aired. I think we'll get one in June, since the LN also went on hiatus and is getting a new novel in June, first since the month it was announced.

Here's how I think it should go:

2018: Season 3 should be 24 episodes and cover Vol. 14-19 of the light novels. There should also be a special Episode 0 to summarize important events for new & old viewers. (Been a long time, after all!)

2019: Season 4 would only have to be 12 episodes and cover Vol. 20-22 (World War 3 arc)

2019-20: We take a break from Index and reunite with Misaka in Railgun III! This covers the Railgun side of the Daihasei Festival.

2020-21: New Testament! 18 volumes of it is enough for three seasons or 72 episodes! JC Staff has source material for years to come!

Waaaay more than that. In just 19 volumes, New Testament has surpassed 24 (including SS1/2) volumes of the Old Testament in length, and it's still going. It'd take at least 4 seasons of NT to reach where are now, because there's a few side stories they need to adapt, like the Stiyl and Kanzaki ones.

I just want Touma to be animated like LN Touma, the "slightly less fit than captain america" touma that can end the idea that Touma is weak.

Kamachi never had the narration call Touma weak, in fact he repeatedly called Touma pretty monstrous, JC Staff had really been disappointing on this side.

I mean most of the stunt that Touma pulls off in the LN is worthy of being in a hollywood blockbuster, and make professional soldiers feel out of shape.

Like smashing through bullet proof glass; ramming down stainless steel doors; jumping through the window of a moving bus, crash it, smash through the window while it is crashing and take down an enemy on a motorcycle with a fire hydrant that he was holding while escaping the bus; grabbing onto a moving train with 1 arm and pulling himself up; jumping out of the 6th floor, easily grab onto the 5th floor balcony swing in.

It'll be weird seeing him tank a giant fucking wall of earth that Accel sends his way this season.

Hasn't been announced yet. The Toaru Project website just updated yesterday and their Youtube just added a playlist for PVs, so we're getting news soon.

Fucking this.

LN Touma is practically a Die Hard protagonist cranked up to eleven.
