| Holy fuck, I got chills when I saw Misaka Worst animated, she's finally here. |
 cunnysseur |
| damn all that waiting paid off that opening was hype af, still doubting they'll pull through with the last arc because this whole season has been pretty darn disappointing even when trying to find enjoyment of it but at least we got that. the Worst is here! i feel like the anime has kept a lot of accelerators edge and by this point he has toned down a bit hopefully the do his development well here in the up coming episodes |
 |
| Absolute trash, as expected. Most of the characters either easily stealthily infiltrate military bases like it's nothing, or scythe through enemies so fast the show doesn't even deem it necessary to show. Even though it's trash, I do like the new girlfriend he's got going on. She's cute and forward, what's not to like? There was a scene when there was a group standing around Fiamma of the Right, and I just had to chuckle because there were 4 characters I either don't know or don't care about and our main character. How can a show pump out so many characters without giving any introductions? How can I give a fuck about the majority of these characters? They must've done some case study on how number of characters effects a show's popularity and decided that they should add two new characters every episode. ap1001 said: A lot of the fuck up even got nothing to do with budget or time, the storyboarding person was just retarded. Couldn't have put it better myself. You know what it reminds me of? It's like when you write a 4000 word report at university, but you go over at 5000. So then you've gotta go back through and cut a bunch of parts to get the word count back down. Since the marker who's reading it never read the original, shit just looks weird and terse. Same shit here. I feel like they should've adapted this whole season into three separate ones. |

Wait you mean...the two mob characters, the woman who you literally got a introduction to and Touma? Are you actually complaining that you don't know literal whos now because those guys are actual grunts? Because you surely don't mean the scene with Vento, Sasha 'cause if you forgot about them then you're in a world of trouble Mate, have you been paying attention to this shit show of a season? The plot literally makes no sense. The characters appear for about an episode or two, barely any backstory, 'weak introductions' (putting it very generously) and then appear ten episodes later for no reason. The fact that you can even remember the names of these D-list characters is an incredible feat in itself since they've introduced like 36 'plot-important' characters this season. If you're taking this anime seriously and not laughing at all of the ridiculously bad shit going on, you're wasting your time. thepath said: Why haters keep watching this anime ?! If you don't like then just drop it You have to love something first in order to hate it... or something like that. I actually gave the first two seasons of index a 7/10, enjoyable. And then I point to Vampire Knight which I gave a 2/10 and say, once I've started something, I have to finish it. After which, I point to Vampire Knight: Guilty which I gave a 1/10. Not sure if I love to suffer, or if I just can't put a story down once I'm somewhat invested. |

| Wtf I thought that 2nd princess carissa is dead. Ok so what's the gang's business in Russia now?????? |
| There's some awkward scenes but I'm actually happy with how they started adapting this major arc. Misaka Worst hype! |
| 1st rank gonna wrek this time, im sure of it lol |
 |
| well glad to see the new op and ed...and nice that it all converges in Russia |
 |
| It was a good episode, i felt like a buildup buildup for next episode, but i enjoyed aswell, and i am also hyped to see more about this arc! Lessar is interesting, and her nonsense dialogues are funny, she is always trying to tease Touma, but i seems have no effect! But liked her! It was nice to see Misaka and Kuroko! Fiamna is still a big threat, but i am glad Touma is getting more allies, didn't expectt o se Vento joining Touma! Btw, i loved Opening, and it trasnmited a feeling that it will be an awesome arc! Misaka worst, i am curious to see about her! Hyped for next week, honestly! |

| In Russia game plays you. |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| Wow, every Lessar sexy teasing to Touma is making my dick hard. I'm surprise of Toumas willpower to overcome that. If a girl is asking for it, a real man should go for it. Good build up episode. Lot of characters once again shows up out of nowhere. On Episode 19, Mother Russia soil will be bloody. |
 |
| I'm actually hyped for this arc even though this season has been quite confusing. Misaka Worst finally gets on stage! |
 |
| The opening was overdue. Nice episode more or less. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Awesome new OP. Lol, Hazama was planning on becoming a villain by robbing a store, and still ended up the hero anyway. It's even funnier when his line "This is a stick-up, get your hands up" is still correct when you change your perspective to him referring to those guys rather than himself as originally intended. |

| Elizalina has a scary face lol. |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| the second op for each season are always great a lot better than the first op also this final arc for this season is off to a crazy start though imo feeling like its gonna be the best out of them all |
| "one step at a time" |

This is the worst way to defending an series you like. |

Sugram22 said: haters yes, criritics no Yes there is, a lot of people included myself has already pointed up a lot of problem about this season in almost every episode discussion, such as how rushed the story is compared to the source material, how this season skipped some contents (Details, explanation, and a entire side story that will be relevant in the later episodes and seasons), and the bad direction that's make some fight scenes looked really bad and inaccurate in comparison. I could say the bad art/animation is also part of the problem as well, but I won't talk about it because it's irrelevant to the issues I mentioned above. Have you even read the criticisms some people written in the episode discussions? Sugram22 said: and i didn't say retard I know, I just adds that into my reply because the way you said that like if most haters are just some random guy who do some stupid things for the stuffs they don't "like" for no reason. |

| Really impressive episode, really looking forwards to see what's next! |

KanonDE said: Garbage episode like usual, but the OP was great. Yeah, great new OP2. You would have cringed even more if you know the source material. |
 |
| New OP is probably the only good thing in this season |
 |
| Damn, ending with Misaka got my hyped! |
 |
| Woo, here we go. I have a valuable little rant, prompted by this very episode, one that might change your life, if you're one of those hysterical and gullible types. ...Oh noes the world is going to end we only have 3 years to live, and when we're still alive in 3 years we'll only have just 4 more! and then 2, and then the ice will be gone, and once it regrows THAT will be our fault too! Same lie as in the real world, similar dumb-shit politicians pushing it. Whether they believe their bullshit or not, they're a direct threat to modern technological advancement and our current society - causing a large enough portion of the hysteria, that it causes that same crowd to commit extreme violence once they're whipped up into enough of a frenzy that they feel their doom is imminent. Did anyone find it strange that it's pretty much the same group of people involved in these incidents for so many different reasons / motivations? they're all excuses for this behavior to most people, because their standards go out the window when they FEEL like they're under attack or in danger. Even if it's not true, and the real danger is uh, themselves. It's interesting that Toaru hits on such a controversial reality, though I wouldn't be surprised if they give it some kind of activist SJW ending, considering how popular that bleeding heart lying and nonsense is with the extremely uninformed and gullible mob of anime fans I meet on most websites. I'm not making any assumptions about anyone here - just stating a very real and clear trend. I only have three very basic points to make to those among us who DO buy into this and like to go around attacking people for not spending their life savings on "green" energy which costs more to make and maintain than the coal / oil we currently run much of the world off of, which are all you should have to hear to second-guess the narrative. This seems like the perfect place for it, since this episode got me started. One, they've been telling us the world is about to end, "run-away global warming" (because of CO2 of all things - laughable. They are pouring / spraying FAR worse things into the atmosphere intentionally right now, with effects they have not even imagined, in the name of geo-engineering, right as we sit here and panic over this hysterical nonsense. This crap does not age well - partly because they're stupid enough to give a time-frame for a totally unproven whack-job theory and when that date comes, they just move the goal post. Again... and again... and again... and again. This has happened multiple times in my life already, and I'm sure it won't be the last, because you lot are so easily manipulated it's disgusting. Two, the ice core samples they've been taking and analyzing from the antarctic show us beyond ANY DOUBT that we're at the TAIL END of a warming period. That means we have the opposite problem from global warming. They were saying this decades ago, until the climate Stazi started going around trying to halt all technological advancement over something they have not bothered to inform themselves on at all. It used to be a LOT hotter - "something" happened around 18,000 to 20,000 years ago, that ended the ice age virtually over night, and vaporized 2 miles of ice over north America in a very short amount of time - causing wide-spread global flooding and blocking out the sun for years, causing a second mini-ice age - followed by a drastically warmer period - the one we're in now. That's right - even the ice at the poles melting, it's been going on a lot longer than we've been alive and been releasing such "dangerous" carbon emissions. ...and three, if you look at the actual mean (average) GLOBAL temperature it has not even risen a single degree since they started this charade. There will always be highs and lows, records in one direction or the other, over long spans of time. It's natural. It has always been this way as far as we have evidence on earth. We are in a cycle - a cycle whose theory was established several hundred years ago, that has increasingly shorter lesser cycles within it, often tied to things like solar cycle and rotation / axis tilt - and cemented in the last few decades, beyond any doubt - until politicians realized that making YOU panic was their ticket to total authoritarian control and big $$$ ... (...that's right, their ticket to becoming filthy rich and powerful beyond imagining and simultaneously lording over you and holding you down - the dream of all would-be dictators, it's a communists wet dream, and that's why we see this narrative coming largely from THAT crowd too ;) To get their ideal, they need to hamper your ability to be anything and advance. This is why communist regimes are NEVER at the forefront of technological development without stealing or bartering for the technology. I could talk about this subject all day and night, but this is already more than long enough - and I doubt most of the people in question who routinely panic over this stuff have the motivation to read this in the first place... usually the case anyway) See, temperature records are kept the world over - just because a government agency (who call themselves civilian, obviously not true) NASA and some made-for-TV documentaries SAY the temperature is rising, they are not taking into consideration the GLOBAL AVERAGE, nor are they taking into consideration the time-spans we're talking. If we're in a 20,000 year or longer cycle of warming and cooling, and they show you literally a 20 year wide cut and say "we're all going to die" you should punch them in the face for being dishonest, and if you bought into it you should punch yourself in the face for no-doubt attacking everyone around you in a fit if hysteria over the fact that they drive an automobile. We have not been recording that temperature variation globally long enough to even have the data points needed to prove such a theory - and all the evidence we DO have disproves it. When someone shows you a graph that has maybe 2 to 4 decades, ask how long the warming (or cooling) has been going on. Odds are they either do not know, or will not want to tell you. That data IS out there, and it says the opposite of what you're told, which seems to be a common theme in the last 20 years or whatever. Feel free to verify what I've said, I'd honestly prefer you did so I don't stumble across so much of this asinine crap on every anime website forum that allows talk of non-anime related topics and current events. I love conversations like that, when it takes place among coherent adults... (or children who have actually searched beyond politically motivated websites and propaganda journals to do their research, which is exceedingly rare... then again it's not so common in adults either) As far as Toaru - I guess we'll see what THEIR conclusion to this situation is. I expect one tailored to their audience, but ...we'll see, I suppose. Who knows? maybe they'll have accelerator massacre every last one of them for lying. One always has hope for the future. I hope this has been educational, and please, if you're one of the people who get dragged into this stuff to the point they get depressed and even suicidal, do yourself a huge favor - look into some of what I've said, the only way you're going to not hear lies is if you seek the information on your own. That's often the case with everything in our modern times, when transfer of information is instantaneous. For more information on ice core samples and the last ice age, and how it ended (called the "Younger Dryas impact hypothesis"), I recommend listening to Randall Carlson (he did a few eye opening Joe Rogan podcasts in the last few years, if that's your style) - Randall does a great job laying out these theories and then offering supporting evidence for them, some of which he personally gathered, others that have been documented from long ago. It's hella interesting, and at the very least it will provide you with some very good questions to ask the next climate activist (terrorist) who threatens you over owning a car and all that other crap they make into real issues. |

| Alright, I lost completely track of this mess now. I understand that Russia declared war on Academy City for whatever reason and Touma is fighting some dude together with a bunch of chicks. Great story. |
| Russia declaring war on AC? Fiamma. Shiage and Rikou... are in Russia? LMAO Shiage walked into a hentai scene. Accelerator and Last Order. Someones after them. Touma. Lessar is with Touma. Kanzaki. The waifu Carissa is back. Red pantsu? Fiamma. Shiage. Kuroko. Biri-Biri. Elizalina. Fiamma found them. Sasha. Vento. Accelerator. Who is that? Dat ending. LAWD JESUS! DAT NEW OP IS FIYAAAAA! The moment I saw it was widescreen, I knew it was going to be a banger. Not only that, but it felt like a movie. I had it on repeat for about 20 times before I even continued the episode. This is why I chose Maon as the successor to Mami in my "Who will perform the OP to Index III" thread and knew she would be. She delivered once again as epxected. Gravitation was top tier as fock and this new OP.... LAWD! Also, MAL needs to get rid of the manga store section on the bottom of this page. During the Carissa arc, I saw (peripheral vision) the cover of one the volumes having Touma and Lessar next to each other in the snow. I thought it was just random art for the volume since Touma was chasing Lessar. But this episode proved that I got spoiled. So that means the other covers are showing future events of the story. This needs to be addressed. |
| 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). |
| Touma harem increased , i was expecting her to join but not that way , she want to be sexualy raped lol When i see how fast she try to seduce him , there should be a lot more fanservice soon...i hope im right 🤔 |
Loli world is just a cute world full of cute meat |
| What a horrendous way to start the best Index OT arc, though the OP has the best animation out of all (I also love Roar musically but that's subjective) |
| War declaration?.. Damn.. Hm.. So.. This girl's goal is straight to get Touma?.. ;D Well, if she proposes him to lift her skirt and forget ex.. Well, I guess, it's a good motivation to get and support your loved one, I guess.. |
| I really love the new op. It actually might be my favourite op in this series. Hamazura accidentally saving the cashier was funny. He really does have some amazing luck sometimes. I'm glad Lessar gets a little more screen time. She's an entertaining character. Vento arriving towards the end has me a little hyped even if she's going to job against Fiamma. Misaka Worst has arrived! |
 |
| Touma was after Fiamma without any clues, while searching him in Russia. And then suddenly they all found each other... wait isn't Russia the largest country in terms of size? It's too big for such coincidence lol. Anyways Russia declared the war on Academy city and now Academy city have sent a nuke of their own.. Misaka worst. Great, I can follow. And hey that girl was asking for sex right? Lol. If only 10 percent of the budget that went into the new OP was used this season, sure atleast there would've been one decent thing to talk about. |
 |
| That sounds like something Putin would say to justify his actions, lol. The Lessar fanservice gave me a hard-on. If I were Touma, I'd take her up on her offer. I'll pound her hard! Is she serious about it, though? Interesting developments, and who the heck is that masked Misaka? Is she one of the sisters? I forgot to mention in the previous episode that I like the new ED. It's catchy! |
| Nice, new opening song. |
