Absolutely not. The first arc of Index has aged awfully. I'm a massive fan of the series and the only thing Index 1s opening arc achieves is having a banger OP. Railgun on the other hand is a little more slice of life oriented initially but I found it easier to get into than Index-it is also a prequel. If you have anymore questions just quote me :)

You should watch it chronologically which would be:

• A Certain Scientific Railgun 1-14

• Railgun OVA

• A Certain Magical Index 1-6

• A Certain Scientific Railgun 15-16

• A Certain Magical Index 7-9

• A Certain Scientific Railgun 17-24

• A Certain Scientific Railgun S 1-10

• A Certain Magical Index 10

• A Certain Scientific Railgun S 11-16

• A Certain Magical index 11-14

• A Certain Scientific Railgun S 17-20

• A Certain Magical Index 15-17

• A Certain Scientific Railgun S 21-24

• A Certain Magical Index 18

• A Certain Magical Index II 1

• A Certain Magical Index 19-24

• A Certain Magical Index II 2-7

• A Certain Magical Index the Movie: The Miracle of Endymion

• A Certain Scientific Accelerator

• A Certain Scientific Railgun T 1-3

• A Certain Magical Index II 8-13 (Railgun T 1-3 and these episodes happen on the same day, so this can be interchangeable)

• A Certain Scientific Railgun T 4-15

• A Certain Magical Index II 14-16

• A Certain Scientific Railgun T 16-19

• A Certain Magical Index II 17-24

• A Certain Scientific Railgun T 17 – 25

No you shouldnt,i recomended watch railgun first,because the sisters arc has more impact in railgun if you watch index first you will catch spoilers from railgun s,so i think the best order to watch the series is railgun and railgun s,after that you go to index 1 and index 2,railgun t, index 3

I think you don't have to be episode specific just watch them in this order and you will be fine.

Railgun season 1

Index season 1

Railgun season 2

Index season 2

Movie

Accelerator

Railgun season 3

Index season 3

Just go with Railgun. Index is a drag to get through and not fun.

I won't say index is a drag. It's really fun to read. OP If you don't like reading novels just leave Index and watch Railgun(But for context Index would be helpful). But if you can read Novels, Index is a must. Overall it's much better than Railgun.

Watch Railgun First. Then Index. It's better. It really doesn't have a lot to do with eachother. But I found that order better to watch.

There's a chronological order that I believe starts with Railgun... But honestly I watched all of Railgun first and only some of Index.

Because Index is ass compared to Railgun
