| lol, this is getting good. Index is pretty awesome. |
     |
| Touma is touching Index in weird places! O_O Really good prelude for what's to come. So it means they altered her brain in a way so she her memory has to be erased every year. So cruel! T_T What a cliffhanger. Quickly moving on to the next episode now! >w< |
 |
| behind that small body is overload of awesomeness, cool index |
| wow, good episode, lots of explanations. and it said 1 of THREE seal. so does that mean that they have to get thru that st.Goerge thing and 2 other things, and than she's free. or he has to find 2 other seals on her body?? well on to the next episode. |
     |
| that was much better! Touma somehow hacked her system, lol going to the next episode. Actually I start to like this show. |
| This episode frickin rocked! :) Though I was wishing Touma would wake her up and talk to her, it did seem like she was in pain. I'm still flip-flopping on the two mages as to whether they're villains or heroes, but they definitely seem like they're being manipulated by the Church. I lol'ed when Touma wondered if he had to reach between her legs to search for the seal ... and then apparently went for her gag reflex instead. I was hoping she wasn't going to spew all over him, that would've been pretty gross. And was kinda surprised she didn't chomp down like she is wont to do. I have a feeling that first FALCON PUNCH of the season's coming ... probably as a way to knock her out of this auto-defense mode. On to the next episode! 5/5 |
| thats why i stopped sticking my finger in peoples mouths :P anyways a defense system thats not good :O |

| You know I was thinking the same thing touma thought about the 15% thing (one would die before age seven), but I just figured it had something to do with magic. I wonder how Index's colleagues never figured out about this lie (maybe they have and they just didn't tell Touma). Whatever the case this is getting interesting and I look forward to see where this goes (Touma's "final words" made it seem as if Index was going to get take away and he was going to get strong and go save her, that would be quite interesting) |
| Touma is so annoying, I hope he'll get better as the show continues cauz the story etc is nice but he's so damn oblivious, ignoring the pain and sadness of Index's friends who try to safe her life by doing something they don't really want to do, but he seems oblivious to it and says they shouldn't do it etc. I hate characters like him. |
| Very amazing! This episode pretty much cleared my doubt of any ulterior motives that Index's friends have with wiping Index's memories. They aren't bad now haha, they care for Index as mch as Touma, though theres still that conflict of preserving Index's life or memories. Heartwarming seeing Touma try to do everything he can do to save Index from her fate. I thought Touma DID IT when it looked like he found a way loool. When touma saw index's mouth, I was thinking mmmmm GOGO touma, kiss index hehe !!! That End was really shocking :OOO Great climax too!. Omg, What have you unleashed Touma???!!! It turned out so different than Touma thought when Index went all mechanical and scary! 5/5 episode :) |

| It was an okay episode, I guess. I even thought the scene between Touma and Index was fairly emotional. |
| "Yes, I have been deprived of emotion. But not completely. Whoever did it, botched the job." - Geralt of Rivia |
| touma sure does prattle on about saving people. what is this? fate/stay night? |
| I like that Touma isn't the ordinary type of main character - like that he's quite smart in a way unusual for such MCs. I guess that's because of the fact that he grew up in a scientific city. I mean - someone actually thinks relevantly for first time in anime history! |
  |
| Hmmm. still waiting for the fight for touma and accelerator at railgun S ep 13 so i just have to finish Index first |
| damn.. it started to getting more interesting :3 whats with that 4 symbol? :3 gahh really curious about it :3 |
| Aah this anime treats stuff well. I wonder how much this will develop. |
 |
| Pretty slow episode up until the end. Nice way to learn some Psychology as well. Index looked scary in the end, and her eyes so sinister. Also the ED song all soft and before that a cliffhanger scene with scary Index. |
 |
| Now you've fucked up Touma. |
| Finally now i've got it!So the bastard here is the church,they used a magic on her so she would be theirs forever and her friends would desperately protect her by deleting her memories because they were told to do so because she would die but no,there is no way a human will die only because her brain is full of memories. And Touma discovered that with the help of Sensei,and he now destroyed the magic that church used on Index but now she enabled that automatic mode of protection,this is getting even better :D Finally her friends will understand now that the church lied them! And that she can have a normal life xD |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| Actually the Anglican Church isnt that bad.More like gray territory.It was a way better solution than then alternative...wait season 3 or read the LNs. |
| Ugh, Touma was annoying me when he was whining while the other two were trying to save her life. At least, he stopped crying like a little bitch. So that mind eraser was some Church bullshit. Her friends are kind of stupid to never have figure it out :P From the preview, it look like there's an older self in her body... |

| Nice episode. Probably my fav so far. |
| That Index at the end was freaking scary AF. I got goosebumps. I am really enjoying this anime, it is fast paced and freaking awesome. |
| Something is getting down |
| These cliffhangers after each and every episode are making me more reluctant to watch the next one than anything else. |
 |
| Touma is fingering her mouth, LOL. I learned a lot in this episode especially brain lesson. |
 |
| It was kinda hard watching Touma act so desperate. I suppose the inability to give up can both be a strength and a weakness. Though Touma did succeed in the end. |
| I feel bad for Index's friends. Touma made a loli mad for "fingering" her... |
 |
| Nice to see Touma is somewhat competent. |
 |
| The first half took a bit too much time again, but I liked that Touma finally started questioning the information he has so far. And spooky Index is kinda neat. |
| That thing with the 15% brain capacity actually bothered me as well. If 15% = 1 year how could a normal human being live longer than 7 years? I give them credit for actually making something that illogical to use it later. What bothers me even more though is that they act like Touma and Index are best buddies since kindergarden despite only knowing each other for a few days :< |
| I was getting annoyed up to half way through that Touma was still being so stubborn and just determined to go against Kanzaki. It took quite a while before he even spoke to her or the other guy (can't recall his name right now) about trying to find another option. In the second half though he was more concerned about trying to find a solution than just fighting them no matter what, even at the risk of Index's life The end of this ep was the most interesting cliffhanger so far. |
| Why are they still staying at loli-sensei's place? It's risky since she's still a sensei :/ Also, he just happened to find a book on the shelf talking about memory loss LMAO XDDD anime logic. So convenient :P Not sure why everyone's so upset about Index losing 1 year's worth of memories .-. Just make new ones and start over. I know for Kaori and Style, it would've worn them out by now, but Touma hasn't known her for very long at all, so why should a year's worth matter? He barely met her. There aren't even that many memories of him lol. As long as Index doesn't die, I'd be fine with the brainwashing But now we know the church lied, so there's that. It's obvious Touma was gonna try his right hand to resolve Index's condition :3 Kaori and Style are gonna be pissed xD It'll work out in the end tho, most likely |
| I don't understand why Touma cares about Index so much. There was little interaction between them besides the first episode. In the other side, he thinks that science can save her but then realize that the Church lied to Index's friends. The perfect memorization is not dangerous. It seems that the next episode will end this arc. I hope you don't disappoint me. |

| How these mages are dealing with things is very questionable.. Like if it's such important matter to rewrite her memory, why they won't talk with Touma before and properly, not on some phone, so that he wouldn't get in the way, if that's a problem?.. Like what you're hoping to accomplish by this phone call at all?.. Mages seem to be acting reckless a lot of time.. Don't know really, why.. Well, I mean.. Amnesia sucks balls massively and stuff.. But if there is no other choice, why just not try science things during the next year with proper time, and just start relationship anew?.. Still I have suspicions on mages, why they are enemies to Index, it doesn't make much sense.. So the church was the baddies all along, hm?.. Well, I can take this.. Still mages were suspicious.. And why church would really need Index' memories erased anyway?.. It seems all too confusing.. Well, I only care in the end I guess that Index will be alright.. These plot things bring more questions than answers really.. |
| Love the tension after so much talking.I'm interested again. Writing seems inconsistent, but I'm glad Touma is not just another Emiya Shirou. Judging by my own feelings and comments above, direction is actually the big problem. |

| I hate everyone equally |
| Omg she looks brutal what happened there D: |
 |
| Finally, a good episode. Also informative I like how intimidating the loli was at the end |
| So Touma is able to tell when his Imagine Breaker has hit some supernatural power - not sure whether he actually picked up on the trace of the rune inside Index's mouth or whether that was more of a visual cue for the viewer. An English Church that's corrupt and up to some dodgy politcs though. Who would've guessed? :P |
 |
| of course the Churches in Anime are always scheming... lol really enjoying the storytelling so far. |
 |
| Plot twist. It's always the church lol but I was like that photographic memory thing killing her doesn't make sense. Though if magic is involved they can say anything they want and it will make sense lol kinda spooky the way she just got up tho lol |
