I would call this episode fanservice-ish episode. First with the Index part, and then Misaka showing off the adorable side of her we've never seen.

I can't wait for the next episode though. Next to Misaka and Index. Accelerator is up there in my favorites in this show. He's such a psychotic badass.

pretty funny episode, first index bites the crap out touma, then a shape shifter comes out b/c touma has some secret orginization, so secret in fact he hasn't even heard of it, and then misaka keeps turning red around him

I rather enjoyed this episode. Cool relationships between Toma and Index, and Toma and Misaka. Didn't mind the fight either. I guess Toma's being targeted because he's got friends? That's misfortune to a "T".

Considering all the crazy shit Touma has put a stop to, I'm not surprised some outside group watched him and came to their own conclusion about his intentions.

The MisakaxTouma moments were really nice. I've really started to come around and like Misaka.

Accelerator is a douche and I'm disappointed they brought him back.

lol @ the Kamijou Fources. It was kinda funny that he is so unforunate(?) that he had 103000 Indexes AND a Level 5 with him... haha.

And at the end when he was asked to protect Misaka, his voice is muted, but I bet it's something like "Of course, I will."

Man I got so upset at the end of this episode. Damn it....

I can not agree to "noteDhero" completely. I really liked the slow pacing, light humor and melancholic mood throughout this episode a lot. One of the best episodes so far in this case. And most of all: The new hostile character which had to struggle between liking Misaka and having to fight against her was something special. He really deserved way more than just one episode imo. ;(

The ending was a complete mess. The new villian asks Touma to protect Misaka as a last wish. Toumas answer is muted (why?).
And what is Misakas reaction? She blushes and tries to negate whatever Touma has said, totally forgetting about the fact that there is a person dying which liked her a lot. What a cold hearted b...witch!

Episode is ruined by the last 3 minutes for me. :[

Now why would she help the guy who kidnapped the principal's son and tried to kill his *fake* boyfriend.... @_@

Couldn't agree more. In the matter of fact the plot of the light novels version still have a long way to go. I think it'll take about 3-4 series for the story to complete.

Not to mention we are already in Volume 5 of the novels. This will probably mean 6-7 novels per season.

Anyways, even though I feel quite "neutral" towards this episode, I think this is already a first warning to something that is probably about 100X bigger than what the situation is now.

I can only say that they are getting back into the MISAKA project once again. At least I'm seeing a more serious tone on the next chapter.

Concerning DVD vol 1, sales seem to be over 7000, this is rather good figure!
and there also is BD vol1 (I couldn't find correct sales's figure)
So we can expect season 2

Pretty nice episode imho. I'd try to rate it but i really didn't have any problems with it at all. Misaka is a win character, and this episode proved it even more. I say yes to Misaka. I'm soooooo glad they killed off this guy. Why? Because i was afraid it was going to turn into a few episodes of paranoia over who really is who.

The fight scene was decent, I hope Index works as a "dial a strategy guide" for awhile I really don't want to see this turning into inuyasha where every single fight the main is always protecting someone.

Also I really love how high quality the art is in this anime, I really haven't had any complaints with it as I do with some animes where there is beyond terribad episodes(bleach, welcome to the nhk, etc etc)

You have a point there of course. He was an enemy and needed to be either retuned or destroyed. But I just couldnt accept Misakas reaction at that point. After killing a guy and listening to his last wish, her reaction should have been more demure and mature in my opinion. :P

Basically. And anything with Misaka is awesome, so it's win-win.

Oh, and on a sidenote has anyone begun doing TL work on the Light Novels? Kinda hoping they'll show up eventually :s That, or I'll just echo the request for season two, especially now that I realize just how many of these novels there are, and still going strong apparently.

My opinion was that she didn't really want to kill the impostor then. Firstly, he was the one who caused the structure to collapse. Secondly, if that metal bar was to hit him then he should be killed. We didn't get to see what happened when the structure collapsed but I have the feeling Misaka somehow "blasted" the bar away before the collapse.

& LOL didn't Index get any clothes other than that "Walking Church" of hers? That shirt certainly looked like one of Touma's school shirts.

This episode = d'awwwwwwwwwwwww

I'd be on board for a second season of this show. The pacing's been pretty good so far; each episode seems like it has just enough in it, and most of it's light enough that even if they did throw in some "filler" I wouldn't mind.

Much better than last episode. Biribiri is cute.

Weird that they killed off the imitator guy with the knife already. He didn't have near enough development for anyone to care. Ah well, seems like this arc is going to be pretty fun.

The pacing of these arcs is just not very good at all. And the cool badass Misaka from the early episodes is replaced by some tsundere Misaka. How unfortunate.

So who do you think the girl in the preview, next to Accelerator, is ? Looks like a younger version of Mikoto, maybe she's one of her clones ?

Why was Touma calling Index using his right arm, when that's his weapon? That was just plain stupid. Okay for an filler episode, could have been better. At least there was a fight.
