| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Welp, I guess we're reaching the climax of this arc. Fiamma of the Right is really pushing his plans while the world seems helpless. While all this is happening, Sasha is back! It's been awhile. Looks like she's now one of Fiamma's target Also got to see Carissa taking on the Archangel Gabriel. What a beast that is. That's a power of God for you. |

| Gab still got the short end of the budget, I laughed when a wing just exploded a car, she didn’t even kill the people in the car. Wow the directing team still do not know how to demonstrate power. Mountain range shattering turns into car shattering. Well...it is a small improvement over the popsicle in S1. But that’s a low bar. And look at the credits, well well well, if it isn’t good old Nishikori. So you finally came back huh? Not going to pawn it off to the intern again? Not that makes much difference though. |

| I think it was not that bad, yet again sad it needs to be crammed up into one episode, but for what it is - decent. Takitsubou and Hamazura's moment and her smiling was cute. Just not always bashing the animation, i like how the Star of Bethlehem looks. |

Probably be my last post before the anime ends, too busy processing spoilers from NT22. |

| YES! we approach to finish this promotional anime for railgun saga and accelerator show. |
 |
| Hm, that angel looks a bit stupid, hope it has more attacks too. |
 |
| Here we go again. Something is happening but who know what exactly and what for? Do not think, just watch. Feel the story. Quizz: Who out of the characters got no screen time this episode? On the other side, I've started thinking: what was the point of this season? what creators tried to achieve? to have a check marks on volumes adapted? or just to get maximal profit out of the budget? or may be this is Taboo Tatoo collab? masaka... they don't really think they are doing seriously decent adaptation? because that would be a serious chuunibyou case. |
| I love Gabriel voice, her scream with random word gave me chill. Misaka dont even think to join the battle, you would easily knocked out. |
| This got me hyped for next week Yay, more accelerator can't wait for his own spin off adaptation |
| I think they used a big part of their budget/time for animating the 2nd opening and drawing the Star of Bethlehem with such details. But the whole scenario and animation are just awful. They removed so many important scenes so you don't understand a thing if you didn't read the novels. Of course, there are some unnecessary moments like Carissa saying that she possesses several Cortana fragments. And so what? Did that change a thing? No, I don't think so. The whole fight between Gabriel and Carissa/Versailles tag team is meh. Even Sasha vs. Kanzaki in Angel Fall arc is much better than this shit. |

| Decent episode. Gabriel seems quite powerful and it will be difficult to beat him. Looking forward to next week's episode with Kazakiri appearance. |
 |
| Looks like the Fiamma's endgame is here. Its good that Takitsubo's treatment was successful. So the angel is the key then huh. Lol Touma just casually feeling Sasha up to determine whether she's connected to the angel. Nothing like a crisis to bring everyone together it seems. To think that even at this moment the church is still determined to play politics. The pope sure is becoming quite the force in his own way. Nice to see the french and the brits make peace and unite against a common threat. If anything Carissa's actions sure are doing well in aiding in her repentance. As powerful as she is in combat she's also full of surprises as well. To think that even Hyoka would make an entrance. Looks like this battle is only going to escalate which is always good to see. |

| Considering that I'm used to Sasha's monotone-style voice and personality, I was pleasantly surprised to see her blush like a tomato and her voice going all squeaky when Toma went to feel her down. Good thing that crowbar came in handy to whack him away. XD The animation for the episode was a bit hit or miss again, but the visual quality, thankfully, was still very good. Most of the character models looked nicely detailed and the background art was as great as usual. Takitsubo has now made a full recovery at last, which made Hamazura happy and he hugged her out of delight. It won't be long for the two of them to swing into action again, but for now, seeing Takitsubo all better and Hamazura being happy about that makes me happy as well. =) Good episode overall, but I do hope the fighting animation improves for next time. |
| damn Fiamma and that Gabriel angel is overpowered as fuck how they beat them? but nice to see Takitsubo being healthy again |
| Need more Misaka Worst... and Accelerator, at least Accelerator will hopefully get more screentime next episode, together with Kazakiri against Gabriel |
| just because I’ve gotten weaker, doesn’t mean that you got stronger, does it? |
| Lucky boy that Hamazura! Atleast he managed to get the ship sailing! A lot is happening, more and more people are gathering now. Next week seems to become fun, Kazakiri & Accelerator vs Gabriel. |
 |
| decent episode sure things feel jammed pack but their managing it surprisingly |
 |
First of all, Takitsubou showed us how to be best girl with that wonderfull words! Awesome episode, at each episode i am even more excited for the final! The fight in this episode was cool, seems next episode we will see Accelarator and Kazakiri together against Gabriel! I cant wait to see Misaka joining the fight! |
 |
| A pretty informative and fine episode. Lol, it initially felt as though I skipped an episode or two but slowly my mind acclimatised to it I suppose. Good to see Takitsubo recovering and looks like the two are up to something that’ll definitely be dangerous, hopefully things will go smooth for them. Sasha Kruschev and Touma’s little encounter was entertaining to watch but I don’t think I honestly understood the whole conversation there. Fiamma ditches the Russian Govt, meanwhile after playing around with them, and has even got an Angel up his sleeves, things are looking really bad for those against Fiamma here. 2nd Princess of Britain there nearly perished trying to save the large armies but apparently she had not one but two of those sacred material, can’t quite exactly recall what it was, which gives them some hope against the Angel. Too bad her plan to bind some time will prove to be problematic for Touma though, how unlucky as always lol. Best scene of the episode has to go to Misaka’s screentime though obviously, can’t wait to see her in action! Next episode preview promises some more interesting action! Looking forward to seeing how Touma and co change the tides of this battle here! |

| Hamazura got best girl. |

| Yep. This arc finally reminds me why i love the Index franchise. This is worth the mediocre to fine arcs up to this point. I've always thought that the WW3 arc would make or break this season for me and so far its making it! |
| I was expecting some action this time, not 20 minutes of talking nonsense again. I thought this was in Russia,why are suddenly people in rome shown? Dropped back to a 6, if this continues it will probably end up with a 5. This is a mess, nearly as bad as TG Reeeeeee |

| If there is a thing Index does right, it's how fucking big scale everything is. I love worldbuilding in it. I just wish it was slower. I have no idea how it looked in source material, but for all the stuff happening in this story, it goes way too fast and, on top of that, time is being wasted on action scenes that, most of the time, look pretty mediocre. But that scene made my day:  |
| this is getting really lame, edgy and tiring! 2/5. |
 |
| hmmm... so many things happening all of a sudden..it sucks that I am only an anime reader... I will be glad if someone explains the plot holes |
 |
| I am soooo lost... |
| Another amazing episode. It seems that Fiamma has broken off ties with the Russians and now he is alone against the whole world. Kazakiri vs Archangel Gabriel in the next episode. |
| 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. |
| This is one big cluster **ck, but the action and dialogue keep it going for me. Looking forward to more Accelerator scenes and... yeah, finally Mikasa arrives. I thought they were planning to oust her this arc. |

| Pretty impressive episode once again. The pacing is really going good! |
 |
| No one: Gabriel: ahgsfzmcznxmvhsjagfhc I'm getting bored with Hamazura and Takitsubo already. If only Mugino didn't went psycho, we'd still have ITEM now and I'd be more entertained with Takitsubo. If there's anything to praise this season for it's the background. It looks absolutely stunning. |
 |
| Only 4 episodes left... only 4 more times I have to hear that stupid sentence from Touma at the end of an episode, thank god... |
| Index. Star of Bethlehem. Gabriel? Sasha attacks Touma? Dat hug. A kiss or a slap? lol at Touma touching Sasha. The waifu Carissa fighting Gabriel. Kanzaki and Itsuwa. Curtana was destroyed. Unlimited Curtana Works! A monorail? Hyouka with the save. Biri-Biri. A nuclear warhead? Dat ending. Itsuwa should have been the one to be with Touma right now instead of Lessar. She's stuck helping the wounded. smh |
| 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). |
| Hyouka is back~ ;P Well, it seems that final battle is coming.. Also it seems that anime really went the route of some Code Da Vinci and stuff.. I mean, you have to watch it with feeling like that, really.. |
| The two blondes fighting against the angel was entertaining. Still, a lot of rushed stuff on the side which is dragging everything down. |
 |
| Dude I don't know but I watch these episodes and think I must've mistakenly skipped an episode or two in between, I mean that's just how EXTREMELY DISORGANIZED every episode feels like. Anyways we fighting Gabriel right now. Guess after defeating her, Fiamma's turn will come.. who I'm still not sure of what his true goal is. |
 |
| I like how Touma suddenly started groping Sasha, and he thought it would affect Angel Gabriel somehow, lol. I love seeing Maiden of Versailles & Carissa in action! Carissa is so much hotter, thanks to her outfit and personality. I love her face & armpit too. |
| I like smiling in anime, especially Takitsubou's |
