I'm worried the same would happen for season 2. The 2nd arc of the Railgun anime, I don't think it should really be considered filler. Even though the arc was only covered by the anime, it wasn't covered by the manga, Haruue Erii, the child error/level 2 telepath that was introduced in that arc is actually briefly mentioned during the sister's arc in the Railgun manga. Also, Mikoto uses one of the group photos taken in episode 20 of the anime as her cellphone wallpaper in the manga. Picture from episode 20 of the anime:  Picture from chapter 32 of the manga:  |

Yeah I know about that since Kamachi himself is the author for the second arc in the anime & he approved it canon with some anime original stuff from that arc used in the manga. He even reference the OVA ep in Railgun's Daiheisei arc. I guess I worded it wrong then. I just worried they put some nonsense filler in S2 since the upcoming arc has more darker tone compared to S1. It kind of better if they adapt 2 of the Railgun SS novel for S2 though I don't know which timeline both novel take place. |

It kind of better if they adapt 2 of the Railgun SS novel for S2 though I don't know which timeline both novel take place. I haven't read any of the novels, so I'm not sure, but according to a wiki, the first Railgun SS novel takes place after the Kazakiri Hyouka arc and before the Orsola rescue and Remnant arcs, so there's a possibility that the first SS novel may be adapted iin S2. The Railgun SS2 novel takes place around 2 or 3 weeks before the first episode of season 1 Railgun, so it would only fit in a flashback, I guess. Here's the timeline according to the wiki page: July 1 - Railgun SS2 novel July 16 ~ July 24 - Level upper arc July 19 ~ July 28 - Index arc 1st week of August - Big Spider and Poltergeist arcs August 8 ~ August 9 - Deep Blood arc August 10 ~ August 22 - Sister's arc August 28 ~ August 30 - Angel Fall arc August 31 - 3 stories arc (fake Unabara, Last Order, and 1st episode of Index season 2) September 1 - Kazakiri Hyouka arc September 3 - Railgun SS novel September 8 ~ September 9 - Orsola rescue arc September 14 ~ September 15 - Remnant arc http://toarumajutsunoindex.wikia.com/wiki/Story_Timeline |

So I guess they can do SS1 after Sister arc & before Daiheisei which happen after Remnant arc. Considering SS2 happened earlier in the timeline, I think they can just put it as flashback ep since the anime kind jumbled the timeline differently compared to manga. Forgot to mention there is also another side story of Railgun that they can adapt"'To aru Jihanki no Fanfare" which written by Durara's author & approved by Kamachi as canon if I remember right. The side story have some connection with the level upper arc. |

| Broadcast Date confirmed: IT WILL START FROM THIS APRIL !!!! |
| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
rederoin said: Spring season is very competitive. Before this, OreImo 2nd is pretty much being looked forward to. Uta-Prince 2nd is of course strong contender for top attention (not for me but I am sure many are looking forward to it). And then there is the hugely popular manga Shingeki no Kyojin being adapted.Finally a spring show i'll be looking forward too. There are also plenty of robot anime in spring: Valvrave, Majestic Prince, Gargantia. Although I am not a robot fan, I still look forward to seeing how the robot genre may be heading to. I am also looking forward to my harem dosage of the season: Date A Live (PV seems impressive enough). Samurai Girls 2nd I won't miss either, though for that it is not the harem that is drawing me but the sumi sakuga art style. And I heard good things about Devil Survivor 2. And I will surely check out PhotoKano, YuyuShiki and Hentai Ouji, if only because I have seen or read part of the original game/manga/LN and want to see how they will be animated - ah, for that I should add Aku no Hana as well as I have read part of the manga too (though I am not sure I like it that much). Phew, already a very long list for me :-) |
