| A..ACCELERATORRRR!.Yes, i am Acc's fanboy, why lie?.I felt really bad for 9982# though :/, and im 100% sure i would react same as Misaka on her place.Can't wait to see next episode, because this one sure was funny and sick. ''Peace''  |

| A very well done episode. It put in a lot of time to get us to know and like this sister character. A lot of funny and oddly relaxing moments. And then suddenly the whole thing shifts to the "experiment" and the whole sadistic cruelty comes fully upon the character (and us). Pacing and directing is handled very well, including the use of BGM, scene cuts and the handling of its conclusion. Can't wait for next week's episode. AnimageNeby said: It is not a remake. Railgun is a spinoff manga of Index and it is centered around the Railgun character, but both cover the same timeline and location, and in Sisters Arc both have the event covered. So the Sisters Arc is already covered in Index season 1 but now it is done from the viewpoint of Railgun. And yes, the power of Accelerator has to do with vectors.Just a quick question. I'm not really following all the railgun series that are out there, but I noted the new one and started watching. And...is this a remake? Because I sure remember another one very much similar to this one. If I remember correctly, the guy has some vector power that turns the direction of other forces, I believe? So am I mistaken here and confusing it with some other series? Or is this truly a remake? |

| 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. |
| Yesss finally he is here Accelerator the most[bold] BADASS[/bold] character ever !!! |
 |
| RIP misaka 9982....damm, such a perfect episode, it's llike knowing the end of a movie, and because of that , the funny moments have such a sad feeling to them, damm godd job J.C. never in my life had i watched such an awesome episode in the to aru series, for a second there i was afraid of accel, and hoping touma or misaka would appear....but misaka was too late, hell i'm even amazed that she could survive so long after this by facing accel, such a real monster, really, accel in his golden days is probably the most OP character ever, actually he is invincible, no doubt, not even the big stars of shonen jump oculd even touch him also...9982...the misaka that gets saved is 10032,..so biri biri must suffer another 49 deaths? damm that's sad, i almost cried the moment i heard that number, if it's one a dayits almost 2 months...so, in this point of time, touma still has his memories rigth? when i first read this was a sisters arc i wasnt that happy, hopping for more badass shit, well, i'm sorry, and i'm gratefull for this awesome seies, just this episode(and the next one) are way better than the whole railgun series |
| Being a fan is like having a penis. Its nice to be proud of it But don't pull it out in public and wave it in other's faces Kyurem Black. Kyurem White. Together they are Pretty Kyurem. |
| Episode explained how Misaka found out about the project and seems she is heading for a fight with Accelerator now which doesn't seems like a very good thing. Wonder how it will turn out tho that fight personally not to found of Accelerators character he is arrogant and just a cold blooded killer here found it more funny watching him be annoyed in the last season of Index. Seeing as that plays in the future seen from this i wont say to much about it. That sister had a surprising personality tho it seemed to be different from the other sisters i could be wrong about this tho. |
| I'm not even into Misaka but this episode was fantastic, it really brought out the "pain" in them. Looking forward to the next ones. |
Zero_r2 said: also...9982...the misaka that gets saved is 10032,..so biri biri must suffer another 49 deaths? damm that's sad, i almost cried the moment i heard that number, if it's one a dayits almost 2 months...so, in this point of time, touma still has his memories rigth? Nope. The episode takes place on August 15th. Touma lost his memories on July 29th. Touma doesn't get involved until August 20th. |

Arlia said: Don't expect Touma so soon. Touma will only appear at the end of the arc. isnt it about the end of the arc? i mean what could happen between the "fight" next episode and the appearance of touma... after next episode u could (at least i think so) just watch index season 1 ep 12 and u know what will happen... they must make a timeskip very soon or somewhat |

Given the adaptation so far, pacing, as well as hints placed into the series, there will be very little slice of life stuff for a while since we are getting into the murky depths of the Sisters Arc story. We still have another full volume of chapters to be adapted before Touma even makes his entrance into the Sisters Arc and even then, that corresponds with episode 10 of Index Season 1. After that, there is still another half volume of material left before Touma gets involved in the Sisters Arc. At the same time, JC Staff will be adapting the Liberal Arts City SS, which takes place from September 3 to 10, simultaneously with the Orsola Aquinas Rescue Arc. |

| If the rest of the episodes are like this one, then this will be an amazing season. |
| Watching the whole episode and I'm like.."Don't get attached to the clone, she's gonna die.." But I got attached to her anyways. ;-; |
 |
| Every time I see Accelerator i just love the Toaru series a little more. Cant wait for next week now. |
| Misaka clone was so amusing that it was really sad see her die like that. She made the first half more enjoyable that the fight with her crazy antics. For some reason, unlike others i find Accelerator not very cool actually. That big head and small body he has is kind of ridiculous and it always seems like they are trying too hard to give him a crazy psycho attidute. |
| Epic episode!!! Misaka clone made this episode. From her hilarious expressions and interaction with original Misaka. It was so sad when Accel completely killed her. So this is the first time Misaka fights Accelerator. Isn't this the same place Touma fights Accelerator? |

AnimageNeby said: I remember, indeed, watching Index for a while, a long time ago - but I lost interest in it when it became a bit too fanciful and slice-of-life shoujo talking stuff. (Contrary to you, I'm not much of a fan of that genre). But the railgun-series seems better and more 'serious' in that matter, so maybe I'll add this to my list of 'keep-an-eye-on' anime. You either used the wrong terms or you are talking about Railgun season1. |

Cuz I don't really remember how it went in the Index series. lol yea, i think i might just watch index again, didn't understand it much at the time. though i was hoping for a index 3 before i had to do that |

yeokso said: I understand wanting it to be faithful to the original source....but we have to remember that this is being shown on TV and they can't just show anything (some shows push the boundaries though). Assuming the censorship is removed for the bluray/dvd...I don't see it as much of a problem. |
| Such a contrast between the first and second half of the episode. The whole first encounter with her clone was really funny. I love how they actually gave them lively eyes and more personality this time around. The faces and wise-crack comments MISAKA-clone makes are hilarious. xD And then there's the second half where we we've seen the experiment for the first time in Railgun S, and Accelerator as well for that matter. I thought those fights were insanity at first; just doing the same thing over and over again, expecting different results. But now that I actually heard the explanation about using different locations,weapons and tactics every time, I understand. Misaka's reactions to reading about it was pretty sad. 20,000 of her. It's just cruel. As already stated in Index I: It's no fight, it's a one way slaughter. That dismemberment, man. :( Looking forward to Mikoto and Accelerator's first fight though. Not that she'll win. |

dniv said: You do realize that the episode took place on August 15th, right. As such, I think that it's more likely that they will only be adapting the remainder of August 15th (Chapter 24) in the next episode as adapting August 15th and 16-19 (24 and 25) in one episode is too much material for one episode given how long August 16-19 is as a lone chapter. Most likely, the pacing will be along the lines of: Episode 6- Chapter 24 Episode 7- Chapter 25 Episode 8- Chapter 26-27 Episode 9- Chapter 28-29 Episode 10- Chapter 30-31 Episode 11- Chapter 32 Episode 12- Chapter 33-34 Episode 13- (Bridge Scene) Chapter 35 Episode 14- Chapter 36-37 Episode 15- Chapter 38-39 [Sisters Arc END] tomtomr92 said: Why is everyone getting excited for the elevator Endymion?? will i get excited for it to if i watched the movie?? i read some stuff about it, but it doesnt seem that important, anyone mind telling me why its important? Most people have NOT seen the movie. It's just a pleasant surprise after all since the movie was hyped a lot and the elevator was officially deemed to be canon. |

| God, this episode was glorious and hilarious as well prior to when Accelerator entered the scene. The ice cream scene was sweet, and to think a random Samaritan ice cream seller would give the free to stop the argument was just kind, and a bit sad as well. The part where he rips 9982's leg off was brutal as hell, and the infamous Black line censor had to be induced. Well, it was brutal after all... Looking forward to more Accelerator in the coming episodes, and also Touma.  |

It's just that mangapark has its chapter names slightly... off lolz. Probably just their translation error. I was too lazy to refer to Index wiki, will do, next time. Well, ok that does answer my question though. But august 16-19th feels like way too much stuff to put into 1 episode, (not that I'm complaining if they did). Though if they just adapt august 15th for next week, there will likely be a fair amount of filler... depending on long the battle is... well hope next week is as good! |
| Gotta love the logic in Academy City. I imagine the conversations went something like... *completion of project plan report* "So, using this method, we can create the first Level 6." *hand raised* "Um, but won't killing 20,000 clones likely turn the subject into a homicidal sociopath?" "I said, WE CAN CREATE THE FIRST LEVEL 6." |
| *waits for an for Touma to show up whenever he may show up!* |

Such as Kihara Amata, the scientist in charge of developing Accelerator's power. These are the guys who don't give a damn about human life and will do anything necessary for science (killing included) and are the type who would misuse good for evil purposes (see Kihara Enshuu in NT Volume 4 Period.21). |

| Having read the manga I thought I was prepared to watch this. But damn it my heart just dropped when MISAKA went "farewell" to Mikoto and when she picked up that badge just before the train carriage hit her. That was a depressing episode. The interaction between MISAKA and Mikoto was really well done, had so much hilarious moments. They make such a good combo. |
| Such a heart-wrenching episode. (╥﹏╥) |
 |
| Shit just got real. Dat ending theme. |

| 9982 was just so awesome, why did she have to... Great episode!! Accelerator is just badass like always, but will we see Touma & his punch again in this season, I wonder? |
| Signature |
| Lol that ice-cream vendor Scary Accelerator, poor Misaka 9982 Sometimes I don't really like Accelerator, but sometimes I do like him.. Well maybe after Touma beat him, he'll be a good guy... Touma need more screentime, yeah! Also, destroy that Tree Diagram too XD |
"Signature removed"   |
| Been watching the scenes with Accelerator 4 times now, and I just want more :D |

That was a good attempt. But not quite. Updated version: I imagine the conversations went something like... Part 1: *completion of project plan report* "So, using this method, we can create the first Level 6." *hand raised* "Um, but won't killing 20,000 clones likely turn the subject into a homicidal sociopath?" *other hand raised* *And if Misaka Mikoto found out... wouldn't we be toast?" "I said, WE CAN CREATE THE FIRST LEVEL 6." Part 2: That's probably what actually happened. Also, we've already seen Terestina from the first season: she is a Kihara, so we know how they are. I mean she was a nice one in comparison... but we still have an idea of how they are. Accelerator was already a homicidal sociopath(or at least bat shit crazy)after having his powers developed by Kiiiiihaaaaaaraaaa-kun. Being raised/having a Kihara mess with you does that. See the two known survivors of Dark May Project(is it a coincidence that their powers are based on him?) .I am sure a Kihara was behind that.A Kihara is always behind one evil experiment that isnt planned to fail. @people new to Academy City's dark side... If we exclude the Child Errors from season 1,this barely scratches the city's darkness. |
