I have watched all content in series except for index 3 and accelerator. Do you know if this series will take place after their story lines or before.

Well , Basically This takes place within the 2nd Season of Index , so I recommend you watching Toaru Kagaku no Railgun T before Index 3 and after Accelerator one.

Railgun T is during the Daihasei Festival Arc from Index season 2, so you won't have to watch index III. The Accelerator anime stand out of other Toaru stories, you don't need to see it for watching any other Toaru content.

No, you don't need to watch Accelerator, because it doesn't affect the events. and you don't need to watch Index 3 before Railgun T,because Railgun T takes place within Index 2. you know what, DON'T WATCH INDEX 3 it's just a mass of a rushed adaption, read novels instead.

I would recommend watching index 2 and Accelerator before this, but index 3 is entirely unnecessary.

No, you dont need to watch either index s3 or accelerator for this, the story of railgun s3 takes place around the timeline of index s2.

And to be honest, just dont watch S3 of index boz it shit, the light novels of index are much much better, they have butchered the story in the anime adaption of S3.

Index is actually a good light novel but the anime adaptation doesn't do it right. you can't help since it's hard to adapt a light novel to an anime.
Railgun is manga, which mean it's easy to adapt. Despite filler, Railgun has the best anime adaptation in my opinion.

Despite the fact that you're absolutely right. I don't think they kinda care. I always thought dumb the idea of spit on index for praising railgun because the anime is somehow more watchable.

You dont have to watch Accelerator but you might as well since scavenger is in this season as well, basically the 4 assassin esper girls, and they have a flashback to accelerator so we know this takes place later in the timeline.

You definitely don't have to watch index 3 and you should just skip it entirely, if you want to know the end just read the novels.

Am now reading Index after that absolute shit of Index III. Episode 23 and I was like "wtf is going on". I felt the anime is not doing the source material justice so I jumped in the light novel and it was very good.

And yes, Railgun is more watchable, I enjoyed all of Railgun, even the filler episodes and my head doesn't spin.

I suggest you to watch all series of toaru because there you can see some Plot hole that didn't exlplain in main series or spin off series, and ofcourse all series for this anime is interesting for me

Index 3 and Accelerator are not needed. The essential are Railgun and Railgun S, especially the Sisters arc

No, Kihara Gensei only attempt to induce a level 6 Shift on the third ranked level 5 esper Railgun into a level 6.

The level 5 who can reach level 6 are Accelerator, Dark Matter, Railgun but only Accelerator can stability reach level 6 without lossing control. Dark Matter and Railgun would loose control of their power.
