| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Oh so Touma learns some about the truth, not surprised. Misaka ;.; looks like she wants help. Oh damn, those eyes. So I think Misaka wants to settle it once and for all against Accelerator but of course then again, she wouldn't stand a chance. BLOCKED:  Nice OST again. I remember it from episode 6 I think. |
 |
| Kuroko led Touma in. Touma got to know more detail from Misaka's doll. To the bridge with the confrontation. So Misaka was struggling while talking evil. Then Misaka attacking Touma. Fight together vs. Acce. next ep. with Touma ED with "stand still". |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
 Ya, next week's the fight, should be good. |
|
| AWWW MY GOOOOOOOOOD. This episode was godlike. Like really it was sooooooooooooooo well made. Touma was so cool stopping her like that. Misakas face and tears after the battle. Touma petting her head. So perfect. I'm sure that is the moment she completely fell for him :P Aside from that the new ending(unless it was a special end just for this ep) was so fitting <3 AND THE PREVIEW. NEXT WEEK IS GONNA BE AMAZING. I can honestly say that this is JC best work BY FAR. I HAVE NO complaints whatsoever. 10/10 |

Actually, they didn't show the moon in the manga at this point. Did they play "Ame" by Mami Kawada again for this scene? That would have been awesome... |

This time with Touma up front and Misaka at back. T'was a nice touch to end the episode. =w= |
| Finally the BRIDGE episode we have been waiting for... And it is GREAT !!! Touma, yes!! |
| 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. |
| TouMAN in Biribiri vision. And he looks so dashing in some parts. Well it did take up the whole episode but who cares, it was an awesome episode. The emotions were overflowing in this episode. Now it's time for the main event. Level 5 vs Level 0. Hoping for better animation, more visible damage to Touma and a whole lot more Accelerator disformed faces. I'm going to rage though if they cut out Accel's cackling. Some minor nitpicks: -Why was the cat not affected when Misaka unleashed her full power? Or better yet, why was it a sphere attack instead of a full powered lightning bolt to his face? -Since when did Touma upgrade his phone? That looks like an updated design and probably a touchscreen. I can understand that it's not broken though as that's the most indestructible object in the Raildexverse. It will fare worse later on and it's still fine. I mean inb4 people complaining about Touma being a moralfag, having plot armor and stuff like that. Should be loads of fun. |

| Clearly the cat avoided the attack by hiding in Touma's right hand. This episode was so well done. the music was amazing. I can't wait for the OST to be released. We got Stand Still as the ending again. I guess that ending plays during episodes with plenty of Misaka and Touma interaction. I expect the next episode to have the other ending with Stand Still returning for episode 16. Misaka was much more expressive in this adaption, as her attack animations were much better as well. I enjoyed the Kuroko bits and am curious to see what exactly she is saying. I'm glad they showed how Touma left the dorm in this adaption, since the Index anime skipped it. I don't care how long I have to wait for Index III, I just want it to it to have the same level of quality that J.C. staff have given to Railgun S. |
| Awesome in every possible way. I cannot wait to hear more 三下. I always laugh at that word all the time for some reason (especially when Accelerator says it)...今すぐ御坂妹から離れろっつってんだ。聞こえねえのか、三下ぁッ！！ww Touma is cool and I do not care what others say, he deserves the harem he gets (Mikoto should get him though). The head stroking/soothing (correct term in English?) was so cute. It's great how we get to see more of the physiological parts during this arc then in the Index version. It adds to the emotion, that and the expressions are perfect. Pre-ordered all the special edition sets already. That OST from episode 6 again, I must put it on my iPhone ASAP. |
| この妖怪め…何度背後に立とうが俺はこの川原から立ち退くつもりはない。逆に俺が貴様を追い払…なにその顔？ ああ…前回失礼な事して、俺に睨まれたモンだから気に病んでるのか？心配御無用。男子高校生は傷つけられるのは慣れっこッス  |
| Touma! so fricken cool. this guy is honestly my hero! looking forward to next times fight. it's gonna be so epic. damn I almost cried tears of joy from this episode. simply godly |
 |
| Touma knows the feeling of having Misaka's tears falling onto your face. Lucky guy he is. Next episode will be great just from the preview. |
 |
| WOW! This definitely had a way better presentation then this part of the story did in the Magical Index version of this. Felt way more drawn in by the emotions and the music in this. |
 |
| Misaka way more emotional in this ep than in the one of Index (season1). Well done J.C. Staff. |
 |
| FUCK. YES. OH MAH LORD. NEXT EPISODE PLEASE. YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! |

| This scene was done 100% better than it was done in Index s1, it was way more impactful |

| OST was frickin' beautiful. Episode was awesome. |
| The OST during the bridge scene is amazing <3 I loved seeing Kuroko this episode and they did an amazing job with the emotions <3 |
| All dem feels. Dat ost. Great episode. |
| Ahhh...this episode reminded me of one of the reasons why I loved this arc so much. One of them was this one scene. I have to say, Railgun S did a FANTASTIC job with this scene. The OSTs, the voices, the animation....everything meshed so perfectly. On another note, a little LN joke Damn it...Railgun S is really upping my expectations for what Index III will be like. I really hope that JC Staff won't screw it up. |
| (Also known on other places as Hiss13) All hail the adorable chess master! |
| Oh damn, the feel meter is over the top in this episode. The OST, the direction, the animation, everything was done superbly. I never got much of an emotional impact from how Index handled it in the anime as compared to the LN, but the Railgun anime handles it brilliantly! FEELS/5 |
| I'll admit it, I cried. I tried holding it in as much as I could but it just came out...That ep was just perfect. The ost, voice acting, everything! CreationBreaker said: On another note, a little LN joke |
 |
| A lot of emotions in this episode. |
 |
| My god.. This is what I was waiting for, but it was soooo perfectly done, exceeded my expectations by a mile. The way she had such resolve to die for the Sisters, yet was scared to death and wanted deeply for someone to help her. Touma's prompt arrival. Her facade paralleled with her true thoughts. The weight of Touma's words. Reaching her breaking point, losing hope altogether, only to have it born anew. Touma showing the most stoic, most fierce side of himself that we've seen. Everything was just felt so deeply this time. It's not like the scene in Index I wasn't impactful, it was my favorite scene there too. But this was just presented so outstandingly, with amazing animation that did such a wonderful job at composing such strong facial expressions and movements, along with the beautiful and gloomy scenery. And the OST was just fucking unbelievable. Beyond perfect for that scene. Best episode easily, but after that I can't imagine how good the Accel fight is gonna be, and then the conclusion from Misaka's perspective... |
 |
| I really love this series so much. |
| Houseki No Kuni, aka The Land of the Lustrous. Best of 2017. |
| @dniv: cha feel man, cha definitely feel |

dniv said: @CreationBreaker That joke was already made before though. They just referenced it again now... I still felt that I just had to make that joke. dniv said: To honor this absolutely incredible episode, expect the longest episode review you have ever seen :D (in a few hours at the earliest). Wall of text incoming. All hands brace for impact! I'll definitely have fun responding to that once it's up. Just try and organize it a bit so I can respond in an organized manner like last time. XD Seriously, though. The direction for this episode was almost flawless. |

| I want the lap pillow too~~~ >< though it might be shocking :3 |
| I gotta say I never enjoyed a rail gun episode this much before. It was beyond expectations and perfectly executed. Definitely one of JC staff's best works. Currently slowly making my way through the Light Novels. |
| words cant describe how perfect this episode was! |
| While this Railgun series has been better (in my opinion) than the two Index series and the Railgun series before, this series just continues to prove with this episode how emotionally gripping this series is. It's actually suffocating to watch how emotionally invested all the characters are and this episode really beat that home. I loved this episode to death. In fact, it's probably my favorite episode in the series and probably the first episode that had me saying "wow" in absolute astonishment at how emotional it is. I loved this episode...one of the few anime so far this year that have me emotionally invested...even if I know how this is already going to play out. |
| Great episode with dealing with the internal problems Misaka was having and finally believed someone was out there to help her. |
| That was... beautiful. Wow, JC staff really did a great job with this episode. It was hella lot more emotional than what I had expected and it was definitely done a lot better than the scene in Index. I could totally feel the emotions coming out of Misaka and my eyes just went all watery after seeing her adorably cry like that at the end ;_;. Loved the bgm and the timing of the ED song as well, they really helped give the scenes even more feels. |

Loved the bgm and the timing of the ED song as well, they really helped give the scenes even more feels. I think part of the reason for that is due to trying to tell this story more from Misaka's perspective than Touma's. In Majutsu, the story is from Touma's perspective and his emotional attachment to the Sisters aren't nearly as strong as Misaka's. It's much more personal from her and I think that's what the producers were trying to get across. In my opinion, it worked. This episode was pretty emotional. |
