Miracles? This movie certainly is one. Think of every single anime movie you've seen. Majority of them all have common cliches. Three bad guys, who are impossible to beat but some how are killed in the end, and one leader who is either overpowered, or just a coward. And of course, the main characters all struggling for what is obviously good.
This movie has none of that.
3 years ago, a space plane called Orion by a company called Orbital while re-entering the earth's atmosphere, miraculously all 88 passengers survived. Meet Arisa, a street performer and upcoming idol. She meets Touma and Index while performing on a street one day, completely by chance. However, chance and luck do not exist around her, only miracles. Except, she doesn't know it. According to Stiyl and his three new apprentices, this girl has the ability to start an all out war between Magic and Science, though she is among neither. The Science side, Orbital is back, and wants to use Arisa as the opening attraction for the grand unveiling of Endymion, a Space Elevator, which according to the Magic side is the reincarnation of the Tower of Babel.
What makes this movie so great is that it throws away common place ideas such as good and evil, and focuses on everyone: characters from the original series like Accelerator and Touma, as well as new characters such as Shatuara and Arisa. Everyone fights for their beliefs and ideals, rather than for 'the greater good'. It perfectly combines genres of Magic, action, Idols, Action, Sci-fi, Mecha, and up beat Comedy throughout its duration. It truly is a Kiseki.
