Railgun and Railgun T are pretty average to me though I liked the Index recap stuff. Railgun T is really good.

I watched the first season and it was pretty meh. I don't even feel like watching it.

I like Uiharu, the best character.

I don't like the zero phylosofy, koroko, slice of life and misaka being a good person with no moral chalenge. I do like toaru majutsu no index though, for having phylosofy, lese koroko, less slice of life (more comidic slice of life?), And both hamzura, accelerator and touma being moraly ambiguse for different reasons

cloning is not a moral chalenge cause she didn't know she created them and the moment she found out she did and was able to cope with it, she started trying to save them and it was obviess who is in the right and who is in the wrong. a good argument i would say is having your protagonist do good stuff but killing people in the process and acting like a villain or have your protagonist do good stuff because he built his identety around being a hero and not actually looking for other's well being or asking the quetion of is it shit the way academy city treats level 0 espers.

Cloning itself is not a moral challenge, I know you had to look that up, because anybody who's actually watched the Railgun interpetation of the Sisters arc would know there's more to it than that.

The moral challenge in the arc is Misaka's decision over whether she should give the initial rumours any attention, whether or not she should actually view the clones as real people and even make it a priority to save them from their fate.

What I really find funny is the notion that you are think you know anything about Touma's moral struggles from the anime alone. The anime does nothing for Touma's moral side or his character; the entire Index anime adaptation is a total disservice to everything that makes Touma a good character. If you think you can use the Index anime to give a foundation to what you think a "good moral struggle" is, then I feel sorry for you. Read the novels.

Railgun is brilliant at what it sets out to be. One of Thee best 'cute girls figthing stuff' anime with plenty of actual moral stakes and brilliantly done action. The OST is a bop the direction is great and it's just a whole lot of fun.

I think most who don't like it are judging it for being something it doesn't want to be, it doesn't want to be Index, you can't lower it's score for that😅 and you can't get angry that a slice of life is indeed.... A slice of life😂.

So ya it's great👍👍.

@Chiribei already explained the complexity of the cloning so I won't reiterate that but on your last point - Did you casually forget that all of season 1 in one sense or another is about the sh*t way the city threats the level 1 Espers?
Or how power and responsibility are a continued theme through-tout the whole series😅.

Sometimes it helps to give a show the benefit of the doubth and think about it a little deeper. Hope that helps 😊👍.

the first season is good. It gives me a slice of life vibes. The fight scene is good but fight scenes in railgun S and T are more hype for me especially the fight between touma and accelerator in railgun S and the tagteam of sugiita and touma vs level 6 misaka in railgun T. The openings and endings slaps. many best girls in the series but imma go with uiharu.

I love it!
It lacks a bit of depth to some characters and moments that could be grander at times,
but for the most part, from the main cast who are rarely ever dull, but rather charming, cute and entertaining.
Railgun is awesome! From the bonds of friendship, the battle against power-tripping wannabe world dominators, the world of science and espers, the drama.

It's a great fucking manga/anime. Strong 8/10 overall.

Meanwhile, Index, who I still don't fully know if the novels are better was awful.
In comparison, even though the magic aspect of war is intriguing, the whole cast, particularly the main two protagonists are awful.
I hate Index. What a disappointment.
