Synopsis
Endymion: the space elevator of Academy City. On the day of its anticipated completion, Touma and Index encounter Alisa Meigo, a Level 0 girl. Index and Alisa become friends through the inscrutable bond of "ravenous eating". The three were hanging around after school, when suddenly Stiyl and another magic-side being come assaulting them, their target being Alisa. Why is Alisa, who is also on the magic side, being targeted? Having encountered a full-throttle attack from the magic side, Academy City enacts the deployment of the discipline maintenance squad led by the female leader, Shut-Aura. As the turmoil surrounding Touma, Index, and Alisa continues to worsen, Stiyl says, "That girl there may just cause war between the magic side and the science side." When magic and science cross paths, at Endymion the story unfolds!

All of this Biribiri/Accelerator debate is pointless - what really matters is HIMEGAMI AISA 6TH BILLING!
22+4 novels, 2+7 side stories, 24x2 episodes + 4 specials and she's finally a main character again!

Implying Accelerator is one of the three main protagonists of the series (and my favorite anime character of all time)... Mikoto is just another part of the harem but an important character nonetheless. I admit I'm kinda annoyed by the people going "NEED MOAR BIRIBIRI, KUROKOxMISAKA YURI PLZZZZ!!11" as well, but whatever, let's just PLEASE not drag the Index vs. Railgun topics to every single thread about the series. We have enough of those already, and they all are full of childish idiots.
IMO both Accelerator and Misaka should definitely appear in this movie, especially since it's the first Index movie and both of them are obviously important characters to the whole series. Of course, Accelerator is on the dark side of the Academy City so it would be natural for him not to appear, depending on the movie's setting.
PS. To all of those Accelerator and Biribiri maniacs... MOAR HAMAZURA PLOX

Oh yes I like both Misaka and Accel and I know they're important, it's some of their fans and such that that bothers me, the reason being what Ragix said
And yes More Hamazura

Got to love these guys. Watches a anime that revolves around Touma and Index mainly at first then goes on to complain that they aren't going to watch it or even drop the score of the movie because the "secondaries" aren't starring in it. WHEN THE MOVIE ISN'T EVEN GOING TO BE OUT FOR MONTHS! Good job judging a movie without even seeing so much as a real trailer for it.
All I'm hoping for is a good original story, animation, art(Basically the works!) with some good women beater Touma action. lolol
It's been awhile since I've watched it and I'm really hoping that if all goes well with this movie we'll be getting a Toaru Majutsu no Index season 3.

It's an action series, man. Not everyone(and I mean almost no one) wants to just see a guy with basically no powers except a hand shield go, around and give one hit K.O.s to girls. Not to mention that his personality is only a bit more colorful than the average shounen/harem character.
Oh, I forgot! He has a partner to help him! Wait... Index doesn't do much of anything.

Your series? *raises eyebrows* ;P But yeah, it's great that Kamachi's at least somewhat involved in this. I wouldn't want to watch an original arc created by the director without any supervision from the original author.
