Who cares anymore?

Index is yesterday's news already. Kanzaki is the current news followed closely by Himegami.

I was going to say something like this....

Index... there is really no point in her anymore, she appears in the dumbest scenes ever made.

I don't like this kind of "love that fell from the sky" thingy and how they fell in love so quickly, no character development at all.

To make the matter worse, since the Episode of Deep Blood, she has the most annoying yet stupid roles.

Again I repeat, I had a high expectation of this series, but so far is lacking of everything starting with a small thread of sense.

This episode was much much better than the ep 15..... at least it shed some more light and more sense, I'm looking forward to episode 17... New Opening and the conclusion.

I HOPE that the next arc... makes more sense and its actually interesting.

More Himegami is always welcome, this is the first time she had random screen time in a while I think. But really, Ep16 already and nothing new about Index; instead we keep getting boring emotionless characters like the Misaka sisters and Misha.

maybe i missed something, but how did they go from thinking misha was the culprit to deciding that the dad was the culprit? i realize that the dad's appearance not changing makes him suspect, but that doesn't answer how misha knows that angel fall is incomplete and why she didn't touch Touma's hand.

While Misha probably has something to do with it, they decided that the caster was the dad since his appearance didn't change; as shown in the pictures at Touma's home.

Ok, I was surprised here, dady is the real dady? o,0 Or maybe possessed or some other explanation.
But if so, then maybe we'll see a little bit into Touma's past / reason of the Imagin Breaker, maybe...

Really liked the idea of everyone switching characters. Index is hillarious! It was kind of easy of guessing who the caster of the spell was.

Truck driver highlight

I'll go with this since I still don't care much for Kaori.
(I'm not nuts for boobs, so it's no fanservice to me).

You had to laugh at the onsen moments. Kanzaki. :3

It's pretty funny if they see her as Styl.

Himegami as a truck driver was pretty hilarious.

From the PV the next episode is going to be pretty epic. With some wicked Kanzaki moments.

I knew it. After I saw the title of the episode, I clearly assumed that the spellcaster would be Touma's father. It was a good episode, kinda had its suspense feeling.

Damn Kaori was damn hot when she was inside the bath tub. Also, the time when the dad and Index were trying to make babies and Touma interrupted was also funny, lol. :3

I wonder why Touma's dad would do this. Also, how did the russian magician know the facts about Angel Fall? Interesting, I must say.

Indeed... Do all those magic tomes in her head really not hold any significance in anything? And where's our overarching story/plot?

... Enough complaining, heh. It was a good episode, but it's hard to believe that Touma's dad is the magician. I mean, why? It's weird - even before Touma lost his memories he was super sceptical about magic, so it'd be strange if he had a magician living with him when he grew up...

Misha's an interesting character - and I don't really get her. x: And I also don't get why Touma's dad would cast the "Angel Fall"... so hopefully we're getting answers in the next episode.

Hum... not everything was cleared up yet. No idea what are Misha's intentions and why Touma's dad cast the spell. Besides, I was pretty confused with that thing about Kanzaki being a "Saint" and that if she unleashed the "Stigma" had much more power than a normal human. (The only part I understood was the "more power than a normal human".)

Why did Misha run away when she saw toma and Tsuchimikado? Does she have something to do with the Angel Fall spell or not? If not, then how come she instantly ran away at the sight of the two of them?

Well, it may be a bit silly to theorize about a show that has long since concluded but I am pretty sure Misha has to be involved. The actions of Touma's father lead me to believe he wanted his son to interact with Misha as much as possible and, hopefully, expose her to Imagine Breaker. This leads me to believe that Misha is probably using some sort of magic to prevent the completion of Angel Fall. But I guess I'll see next episode.

REALLY a thriller! :DDD This ARC is GOOD! :D My 2nd favorite after the first arc :p

It was obvious because of the last preview that it was Touya the spellcaster. They shouldn't have said that much.

The whole situation is still complicated. What is the link between Misha and Touya? Why didn't she want him to touch her and how do she know that much? They suspected her to be the caster, but if she's not, who is she exactly?

Also, not that much relevant, but I'm sure that the fact that Touya saw Kanzaki nude will come back as a joke. I mean, he's the caster, so like Touma, he must have saw her under her true appareance :P

It seem like I was completely wrong about Tsuchimikado. I suspected him to be in reality his sister, but that theory was completely blown up by all his explication xD
Well, it's not like it was the first time I was wrong, far from it...

Why is this anime even named Index? Index is becoming your loli with screen time for sales boost without story to tell.

Misaka > Index

Although this arc is really random
