Railgun finally beat corona! Another great episode with lots of developement. Misaka was obviously angry as fuck but she understood Misaki wasnt really at fault. Actually Misaki seems to be quite considerate in her own ways. I honestly kinda like her now. There surely is more to her intentions as well.
Misaka sprinting away leaving Misaki behind and thinking she got tricked was funny af.

Also thx for Misakis midriff shot Misaka. I thought that shirt would rip.

Finally, after 2 weeks of hiatus we're back! Finally anime-only watchers will start to hate Misaki less and even sympathize with her. It was also funny seeing them arguing and that Misaki couldn't even follow Mikoto's jogging pace. Her face was hilarious. XD

The hiatus has finally ended. Railgun is back and, hopefully, it'll stay that way all the way until the final episode. =)

This episode properly showcases Misaki's true intentions and what she's done has not only been beneficial to herself, but to Misaka as well. Misaka's anger at Misaki is justified and I don't blame her for it at all, but what Misaki did was for the right reasons, even though it got Kongo injured in the process.

I have to say, the discussions that both girls' were having was enjoyable. Not only for the main plot, but also on the comedy aspect as well. The latter was shown to perfect effect when Misaka ran off and Misaki couldn't keep up. To save her pride, Misaki blamed her massive chest for her lack of stamina and taunted Misaka's small chest, but Misaka called that bluff and blunt told Misaki that she was rubbish at sports in general since she doesn't take part in any at all. Their argument here was hilarious, even more so when they're close to the building where Gensei supposedly is.

All in all, this episode was as great as I hoped it would be. Great dialogue between Misaka and Misaki, the introduction to Gensei was spot on and Misaka's running animation not only looked excellent, but the CGI usage here was also good, too. Things are looking good again. ^_^

Not sure why we had to wait 3 weeks as they certainly stepped down the pace with this episode. It had better be because its about to get mental and the producers were worried our brains might explode if we weren't calmed down first.

About time Railgun T came back. I miss this show so much and it's cool to once again see Misaki (she's been absent for awhile on screen)

I don't blame Misaka's anger though. She's been through so much in these past few days in the story.


I hope this anime won't be getting more breaks/recaps although time will tell.


Shokuho being the adult is far more impressive to me. but I guess she can afford to be a not panicking adult thanks to her power. Also what's with that comment about Misaka choosing to accept people's words at face value being the result to radio project noise and level 6 shift?

WOW, that was a huge change. One moment arch enemies the next they're having a funny banter fight against one another. That was really nice to see. Seeing Misaki tired as hell was funny and it was nice to see the gap between her "perfect" self and her true self. It'll be really great to see these two become friends.

Still cant wait for the end of this arc and seeing Misaka.

It almost feels like months since the last episode came out!! Glad it's back again!!

So, I have to say! I was wrong about Shokuhou, she doesn't seem to be so bad after all! They just don't get along very well!

I love how it went from some serious talk back in that truck to bickering about body parts at the destination of arrival... These girls man XD

So she wasn't actually messing up with her, she was "helping" Misaka.

But the next episode will be amazing!

ps: deeeym misaki's glorious underbewbs, she doesnt wear bra even with that size lol

Finally, they addressed the stars in Shokuhou eyes XD.
I thought it was artistic depiction or something, turns out everyone can see them xD.

That aside, glad they didn't take this arc too seriously.

Episode 8

Finally got a time
watchin this ep, savin the best for last!

Mental Out x Railgun

Two best girls together in this episode
thats an easy 5/5 for me!

Overall great ep, they gave us a lot of infos on whats really happening and whos behind on this problem thanks to Shokuhou.Also a lot of screentime givin to her, finally.

Also they fleshed out more of Shokuhou character this ep, well able to saw different side of Shokuhou.I like when she likes to always mock Misaka even in the preview shes mocking her xD

I love it when they are together, they always fight lol thats how uncompatible their personality.

Lastly, great job for J.C Staff its 8 episodes already and the animation is still good.

Damn, Mikoto vs Shokuhou "fight" was really hilarious. Looks like she used questionable methods to keep Shirai, Saten and Uiharu safe.

It looks like there will be epic battles in the following episodes.

It's good to be able to watch another episode of this show.

Looks like Mikoto and Shokuho are officially teaming up. Shokuho definitely has some trust issues tho...

Shokuho falling behind towards the end was hilarious and someone finally points out her sparkly eyes!

Not a bad episode at all, but after so much mystery and action it was kind of a weird change of pace to suddenly have an episode full of exposition. The misunderstanding regarding Misaki was also solved so easily.

The Misaka and Shokuho combo is pretty entertaining. Shokuho blushing at not being able to keep up with Misaka was pretty cute too. One of those "out of character" kinds of cute.

the argument between Misaka Mikoto and Shokuhou Misaki outside after the running (and nice timing to hilariously dumb wasting time, good for comedic relief) lol


didn't mention it before but while back when Shokuhou so Touma first time it was clear she fell for him from first sight, it seems to be turning in to harem anime :D

Don't laugh at anime much, but the gag with Mikasa going into monologue mode about how Shokuhou could have betrayed her due to her not being in sight, only for her to exhaustingly be walking half-dead behind her caught me off guard. Given how many unfunny gags Kamachi's written for the franchise in general, this was one of the very few golden ones. They have such awful chemistry with each other, but at the same time, that's what makes the dynamic intriguing to watch as a whole. Makes the arc more interesting too considering the slow start.

Way too much talking and info dump. Although nothing compared to what you usually see in Index.
The end was pretty wholesome with Misaka and Shokuhou bickering with each other. Maybe this will be the "beginning of a new friendship". Misaka is probably the only person with whom she can form an actual friendship or any sort of proper human connection, since she can't read her mind, mind control her and use her as a literal pawn/golem.
And As I thought Shokuhou was doing her own thing and had nothing to do with that fat creep and the purple haired loli. And I'm sure she won't be the bad guy in the end. For that matter, even Kouzaku doesn't seem like one.

Well it was about time we get the reasonings like, "Whatever Misaki did was for a greater good", so yeah I'm not really surprised when she revealed she wiped the memories of people around Misaka just so they couldn't get caught in mess, and she was protecting sisters from the people of MEMBER.

Still not a fan of her though, but I liked how she and Misaka were squabbling about towards the end. And lmao Misaka really commented about stars in her eyes.

Misaki is so hot! I get a hard-on whenever she's on screen. That is why she's the best girl in this show for me. I wish her PE uniform got ripped off when Misaka violently grabbed her. hehe

So, Misaki is not doing this out of goodwill. I wonder what her end goal is.
