| @revyHOLiC @MahiaErebeaNegi (not sure if I should tag you but I'm not sure what you said is the reason for not airing today). Why? Because the official site has announced their schedule for ep.13 and 14 (that's how they set the schedule). http://toaru-project.com/index_3/news/index00710000.html |

I just saw the official Toaru twitter made an tweet about the episode will not air today in one week ago, which make me assume that the episode didn't air because of new year holiday. |

| If that's the case then I really have no idea. If the channel doesn't get affect for having new years specials just like you said, then the only reasons I can think aside of new year holiday was either J.C Staff haven't finish working on EP13 yet (Since J.C is already too busy with other anime projects), or J.C wanted to bring some staffs from Index III (While the episode still made on halfway) to working on the first episode of Date a Live III, before the show start airing on January 11 (This is unlikely due to the first episode was just aired earlier on last week). Since the schedule was already set before EP12 even aired, I don't think either of those is the reason that this happened. |
| The show isn't that bad. What is bad are you purist crybabies. You really are the cancer of the Anime industry. |

The one with loli Shogi at the top? Seriously. Mods should just mercilessly delete those "THIS ISN'T EXACTLY LIKE IN THE LN !!!!" posts and ban the users in question. Maybe a learning process might be initiated. |

In fact, the title bears her name, so she must do something, but most of the time it's just annoying, her comedy attempts are one of the worst things on the show.Also the show gives Index too much screentime (i mean you saw her for a few minutes in the last few episodes and she even had some lines besides "i am hungry"-jokes - thats way too much). I mean it isn't like this Anime is about her, it's about other people like Mikasa or Accelerator or this magic spear fighter chick which i don't know the name, which is implied by "a certain magical AcceleratorRailgunMagicChick"o You can not even say that this is the reason why Touma is involved in all this, he was already fighting with everybody because he has a bad habit of going where he is not called, in the arc of the sisters it was totally irrelevant and it was a better arc than all those who have presented so far. |

What? no Index wasn't a co-star, she never was a co-star, Kamachi didn't even want the title to be named after her, Miki (Kamachi's editor) stopped him changing the title of the novel because it would be a hassle. But Index was never meant to be a main character, but a side character. She have roles, but her overall uses in the plot is only in Vol 1. Sisters is the best arc in animated form, but not the best arc overall. |

| Sisters arc is "best" animated because Railgun anime exists. Not only was it directed better and had decent production values for once, the source it adapts actually adds to the original story so it's a win-win-win. Vol1 was the best adapted arc in Index, if we ignore all of the above. Outside of a few minor tweaks it was handled rather well overall looked meh visually but anyway. |

In fact, it will only be worse and worse. |

Deadweight means she is eating screentime and doing nothing, which while true for the anime (due to shilling from the anime studio), it is not true on the script itself, ie.LN. |

| Man i spent the last few weeks rewatching a bit and reading index currently reading through this arc and while S3 is just barely enjoyable it's like Night and day with the LN(we should know this by now so no point complaining) but at this point a lot of anime only-er should do what i did if they actually really want to grasp what's being going on and read the LN, which shouldn't have to be the case but the director has messed up this so much that'd leave you confused majority of the time with out the full context to flush things out. frankly i been having a fun time reading it then seeing it animated right after and comparing the two mediums together |
 |
| It was a good setup for the next episode but I feel they tried to stuff too much into it and it was a little hard to follow. |
| Life Is Short But Intense. |
| Not a bad episode. Really enjoyed. |
 |
| I've come to the realization i don't need to understand what's happening in the show. Or why. Fuck it i'm just gonna go with the ride wherever it takes me. |

| pretty good season so far, just currently bit hard to make sense of it 100% cause so meany things happening all over the place |
| 13 episodes and i dont know what the fucking is going on and how things are random and confusing characters that were defeated in a fight suddenly appears as if that never happened. randomness is over 9000 I'm done for with Index. Dropped 3/10 Index being like this is not from today, it[s since season I. Curiously, Railgun is nice! Better main characters, and everything else. Anxiously waiting for Railgun season III. |

Anxiously waiting for Railgun season III. short story short different factions amt parties want to take power over from alistar, but that's just part of it, its scheme some1 else started making it seem like alistar is loosing hes grip so meany used their orotundity, but that's not all some were in it for revenge worked for a party who wanted to take him down not caring about the parties coal killing even hes/hers bosses men if they get in hes/hers way, its huge mess that makes sense at the end :D even hes/hers part is to avoid spoilers better, better if i even hide the gender of the merc who was hired by one party wanting to take alistart down, not to mention this parties fought each other as well |
| That's quite the action, pretty impressive episode actually, especially that ending! Looking forwards to see what happens next! |
 |
| Yep, Touma is still the most boring protagonist in the history of boring protagonists. His fights always use the same pattern and it always end in the same result... |
| Touma lives. Villian. Itsuwa and Kanzaki. Dat reduce to zero. Acqua wins. Touma sees Acqua. Carissa. Touma got sent flying. Itsuwa and Kanzaki. Biri-Biri. Hyouka. Aiho as well. Seiri and Aisa. lol at Misaka looking at Hyouka oppai. Nice oppai. Touma calls Misaka. Touma defeated it. Itsuwa calls Touma. Angelene. Itsuwa oppai in dat apron. Kanzaki goes to Touma. Itsuwa looks at them. Itsuwa gets the assist. OH SHIT! The Great Spirit maid outfit! Orsola! Sherry. Show Orsola oppai! Laura, Rimea, and the queen. Dat ending. Dat close up on Hyouka oppai was nice. Wish they showed Orsola oppai. They need to be seen. |
| If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have). |
| wtf is with the "Reduce to Zero" BS that the anime showed, Nishikiori pls worst part of the British arc so far as pacing was all over the place |
| Well, Aqua protects that princess.. So he can be nice guy.. Maybe.. He could seek anything by this.. lol, it's nice to see nuns back.. ;P |
| I'm really liking Aqua of the rear in this arc. The royal family are also great but everything else is meh in comparison. Especially with this pacing. |
 |
| Getting tired saying this again and again, but animation is HORRIBLE smh. Can we atleast get a single decently animated episode where if nothing, character movements are fixed? Touma retrieved Index, again punched his way through and about to repeat that course again.. yeah the usual. Though if anything guess they'll wrap up this arc next episode. Didn't really care about the motives of rebel princess or anything, so yeah just do it. I appreciate whatever screentime of Misaka we get though. |
