Judging by the light novel plot summaries, only a couple more girls are introduced in the next 2/3rds of the story written so far.  So it looks like character harem member introductions should slow down pretty dramatically after this.

About the next season, A Certain Scientific Railgun (focusing on Mikoto "Biribiri" Misaka):
90% of the gaiden manga it's based on takes place before Index, and 1% during, according to people who have read it, so don't expect any continuation of Index until much later.

What the hell are you people reading? it's the other way around. 50% before, 50% DURING. Didn't anyone notice Touma talking to Mikoto about the magicians he's encountered IN CHAPTER 8? And the scene at the beginning of the anime is in the manga in chapter 6

Touma did the same damn thing every couple of episodes, just with a different girl. As for too many females... tough call :P If removing a few would've let them develop all the characters better, then I'm all for it. But there was so little development for ANY of the characters, I don't think it would've made a bit of difference.

(click to show/hide)Like Touma's memory loss... that got completely neglected after the father arc. And what's the deal with "Deep Blood"? Ok... so there's vampires, then how come not a SINGLE vampire was shown in the series? That went absolutely nowhere.
I hope season 2 does a better job than season 1.

The point is, you're dissing a continuous storyline. Touma's memory loss is expanded on later in the novels, like when
(click to show/hide)Biribiri discovers that he lost his memory, in volume 17 or somethingThe anime only adapted the first 6 novels. You can't dis it for not expanding everything. That would ruin the possibilities of ANY continuations. At least appreciate it a bit >:(

Xanthic:
Seriously, so many people bitching about the story already that it's starting to piss me off. If you watch any other 52 or 76 episode series, of course it takes time to get to and resolve the main plot. At least we know that with the amount of character introduction so far that there's at least going to be some decent depth to the show.

Although some of the drama stuff did get a little repetitive with Touma and each girl, at least the series made fun of itself for that. You people should quit your bitching and keep an open mind for something that isn't even finished yet. So far I think it's a pretty damn decent show compared to others so far.

EndlessD:
Remember guys, the number of EPs is limited not like Naruto, Bleach or other shonen (crap).

The shonen (crap) anime is like 300+ EPs and it's sure that they would get everything from the original story, they can use more time in the character development, and more time to describe.
