Misaka of course. Gotta love that tsundere plus she's cute and badass at the same time!


Plus I'm kinda rooting for a ToumaxMisaka :D
Reading up on how the characters feel for one another and reading spoilers/summaries of the light novels is what pushed me for Misaka even more. :O

Now I'm not quite sure if this is in the second season yet (Only about half-way through it) so I'll put a spoiler button just in case BE WARNED this has MOST LIKELY not been in the anime yet so would be a spoiler if you were to read the light novels!

Touch me, you filthy casual~

She better be! Lol I'm basing it off of who has the better personality and who would fit better for le romance!
If they don't put a romance in the series I'll be disappointed! If they don't make it Misaka x Touma ima rage hardddd and send a very rude letter to the maker! >:D

INDEX. Starting from Episode 1.. I liker her cuteness.. I don't like Misaka since I don't like Tsundere characters anymore and it always annoys me! I might dropped this anime then bcoz it's harem. I don't like harem.. I won't watch season 2 then coz I'm still watching season 1 and I'm done watching episode 9.. maybe I'll just stop at this episode and never watch this series again.. but maybe, in the future, my mind will change and give it a chance again. I have read all the major spoilers but it didn't made me curios in the story anymore. My interest is gone. So...

If it's contest of power then Index win but on contest of atractiveness Misaka is win by large margin. There is a reason why she win on ISML 2011.

Index seems to be quite a nice character from what have seen. Still watching season 1, and at the stage I am she is quite a pleasant character. If her character really doesn't get developed but rather worsened as most people in this thread are suggesting then that's a real shame. So she's the supporting title character and also there isn't much made out of her character? That's real sad, poor Index...
Misaka is quite a nice character, but I cannot say that she's all that great. I'm saying this after seeing the entire railgun season btw. She is likeable true, but I still couldn't help but notice that she's kinda full of herself. I guess that is what is meant by the superiority complex. Sure she's real powerful and a level 5 and all (and what's with the crap I hear about her initially being a level 1?). Anyways why I don't like her as much as most people in this poll seem to is because of her attitude. Kuroko claims she's quite humble despite her level, but all I coud see was a powerful girl who just assumed she could do everything by herself. She isn't part of the judgement squad and yet there she goes off on her own to take down whatever threats are disturbing the peace in the city.
Her roommate is a member of the judgement squad and yet Misaki doesn't even care to share any hunches she has with her. If she wants to serve justice so much why doesn't she also join the judgement squad. To me it just seemed like all the things she was doing were just for her own self satisfaction. As one of the most powerful espers, she's bored and just can't help seek means to raise some sparks in her own boredom. She clearly isn't too keen to work with others to deliver justice. Just watching the last arch of railgun shows how stuck up she is. She really thought she could solve such a case by herself and deliberately witheld information she had which could have been useful to the judgement squad and chose to do it all by herself. Some may call it heroism, but imo its far from that. I also did not like her self-righteous attitude that nearly jeopardized what that stripping lady was desperately fighting for. I would have thought after the level upper events she would have understood a bit better but that turned out not to be the case.
Don't get me wrong, I still like her as a character... these are just some of the things that kind of irritate me about her. I find Kuroko to be much more fun and heroic than Misaki, unlike Misaki, she has a great sense of responsibility. She doesn't just help out for the sake of her self satisfaction. She does it as her duty, she greatly values the help she gets from her fellow judgement members regardless of their levels and is well aware of her own limits and also has self-restraint (something Misaki sometimes seems to lack). It is true that initially Kuroko had a similar attitude of wanting to be the sole heroine, but she learnt the hard way the price when her friend ended up in danger and her senpai became injured and not to mention her own life being on the line. She obviously shares information about cases she'll be working on because she want to solve them with Misaki. As annoyingly peverted as she may be towards Misaki, she was more fun to watch along with Saten. I would rather pair Touma up with one of them rather than Misaki. (though that would probably never happen.)

I dont really care for either of the choices.

Misaka does my head in, she feels like such a one dimensional character yet she has all this popularity. Index isnt even really a potential interest for Touma so i'll go with a third party.

Kuroko should turn straight and become a choice for Touma, she is awesome =)

Also noticed that if you look at the results for the poll currently it looks like a rather large penis xD

As a man I'd say the harem ending! There are not many "serious" anime with a harem ending. I really hate those anime where the boy has to choose and breaks the heart of the other, especially when I think both girls deserve his love.

Pretty much anyone except Index. : /

A pity, since I actually quite like her character concept. Though It's quite sad that the titular character of the series hasn't gone through any sort of development and has been largely reduced to provide comic relief. Though I'm nowhere near up to date with the LN, so I'm still hopeful that she gets a better treatment later on.

On the other hand, I absolutely love Misaka...err, all the Misakas, including mini-Misaka :3
She's definitely one of the most likable characters out there.
So MISAKA X TOUMA FTW!!

I don't understand how people can like this kind of character. Every time she appears, all I can think of is "oh god, just die already".
I just want to stab her and throw her into a pit with hungry lions or something.

Even if Misaka happens to be a tsundere, she still has a much better personality, is more mature and simply more awesome in all ways.

Although, I'm not a big fan of Touma either... Now when I think about it, I'm fine with seeing Touma end up with Index, I don't really care about those two. I would rather see Misaka end up with Accelerator.

I love Index but I don't pair her with Touma. I hate Misaka so I'm waiting for another character to come in so I can finally ship him with someone. I guess there's Itsuwa, Kanzaki and a few others but none of them feel right just yet. I don't ship Touma x Index because I don't feel they're relationship is romantic and I don't ship Touma x Misaka because it's mostly one-sided. I guess I'd ship Touma x Misaka 10032 the most. I still voted for Index since I like her the most and I didn't realize the question was in regards to who should be with Touma

Personally I like Misaka but the author Kazuma Kamachi said that out of all the characters he wants Index to mostly likely become his lover so at the end of the day we must realise that Index is the one most involved in his life and at least calls him by his name if Misaka did maybe there relationship would change.

How is a lightning bolt not lethal? Oh wait...

Before NT7 I would agree but for now, I'm going with the girl on the cover there(not Biribiri). Unless Kamachi decides to keep us hanging even more with that issue...

Index is far too annoying. And even tho I like Misaka's character and wanted her to end up together with Touma while watching anime, after reading Light Novel I've changed my mind.

I believe that the best girl for him at the moment is Itsuwa, Itsuwa, Itsuwa. Itsuwa.. Itsuwa...
Maybe even Kanzaki Kaori or Arisa (Well, we all know it's impossible)
Well, if he had met Saten they would match each other the best, but, sadly, how far I have read, they haven't met. Yet, I hope.

because you did not read the novel

ImO she's even more annoying in the novels though. I'm so glad that passed the 12th volume we almost don"t see her anymore (except in the 17th, which had its first half annoying as hell because of her, but that's about it). And in particular, that there is almost no humor and ecchi based on index, sicne that's the worst material of the whole TAMNI series imo. When Index is used properly for the story like in the 7th novel or like during the WW3, she can be quite cool. Seems like the author want to go that way as he mostly stopped using her for boring jokes and ecchi.
So far, one of the best change between the beginning of TAMNI and shin'yaku TAMNI is that there is almost no index anymore.

As for the question, I don't really care as I don't think touma is a good enough character to care about who he ends up with (I'm more interest about accelerator 's case, or Hamadura's semi harem if we're limiting things to TAMNI...).

If I must really say someone, then why not Itsuwa.

I have seen it in japanese MAD videos too so can you tell me why Hamazura is also written with a d in place of z?

hamadura is written 浜面 in kanji, which become a very logical (for people knowing a little about how kanji pronunciation works) はまづら when written in hiragana. In Japanese, there is two different way to write the sound "dzu" it's either づ or ず. While the later is always romanized "zu", the former can either be romanized "du" (kunrei style of romanization, which is the official way to romanize in japan) or "zu" exactly like the other one (hepburn style of romanization, standard in occident countries).
(For more information on kunrei shiki and hepburn shiki, please look at the respective wikipedia pages. Both mehods are used both in japan and outside of japan)

Usually both hamadura and hamazura need to be considered correct since it's simple two different official way to transcribe in latin letter the same word. However in the case of the character "hamadura" in TAMNI, the author clearly wrote the name of the character in latin letter one time (don't remember where, but it was at least one time), and the author wrote "hamadura".
So while you could say that usually between non-japanese people using hepburn and therefore "hamazura" would be the logical way to go, since in this case the author himself seems to favor "hamadura", I logically favor that way to write his name as well.

Both are correct though, so no need to change your way of writing it.

Satsuki yumizuka/yumiduka (弓塚 -> ゆみづか) that you mentioned can be written both way as well for the same reason. I dunno which one the author favor though.

Note that you cannot do it for Mugino shizuru for example, because it's a ず and not a づ.

I would take misaka over Index, but overall would rather Kaori because... well come on she fucking ADORABLE when flustered(fallen angel ero maid costume flashback anyone?), and could kick the ass of pretty much the entire rest of his harem without much effort(she is a Saint after all) and lastly(not required but is certainly a boon in my opinion) she's pretty dang hot.
