Mixed Feelings
Emmmmmmmmmmmm, friendship and camaraderie are good and all, but are you sure you are not using the wrong series to do it Nagai?

So Railgun S1, what to say about it, the fact Nagai butchered Kamachi's script?
The fact Nagai portrayed the series wrong?
The fact the anime can be considered non-canon because how much it conflicts with Kamachi?
Or the fact that the theme Nagai is advertising is horribly incompatible?

When you are doing an adaptation, you can change insignificant details but the core should remain the same. But with Nagai, the core is completely changed.

Nagai failed to understand how academy city is, especially shown with his villain, Therestina. What a disgrace of Kihara.

The fact is that academy city espers are all disposable, why are you, as a kihara, repeatedly stating the obvious and truth?

Yes, Toaru series setting is not one that tolerates the power of friendship. Friendship is nice and all, but its not going to cause a miracle and allow them to punch outside of their weight class. There is a reason that railgun is labelled as the kid zone of the toaru series.

Also having Misaka denying the claim is a joke, especially later on, which shows YES, she is a lab rat, living in her little comfort zone, while the big boys solve the real issues. And even LV5 are just slightly more valuable lab rat, but just as replaceable, and she is not even a piece on the board.

Now that is just sad, and it isn't something simple friendship can fix.

Really, just read the manga and ignore the anime, since it is non-canon anyway, if you want to just watch Railgun S 1-16 and ignore the rest.
