To Aru Kagaku no Railgun | A Certain Scientific Railgun [Series]

[IKillKittens]

Just finished episode 24, fight on the freeway's pretty epic.  End of the season tho, watched the Ayako version, at the end they said 'see you next season', not sure if that was from ppl at Ayako or it was from the show and they translated that part too. 

Now off to finish Index, up to ep 14 atm

[vuzedome]

Epic final boss battle.

stil lat work, but remotely downloaded it already, l'm so anxious to watch it !

damn


damn


damn


if l only didn't need to work today >_<



Edit:
wow l loved this episode, Misaka really showed why shes called a railgun ;]
and kiyama without bags under her eyes, she looks rather cute heheh, well, l'm glad l watched this series, now to wait for chihiro to finish and archive :]

[Meomix]

Dam this is a pretty long spinoff, is this a second season in disguise or they are they really leaving out any major season 1 plot points?

[Lord of Fire]

Epic conclusion to a very entertaining show.

We finally get to see Mikoto at her best, proving that she is the one and only Railgun.

Uiharu's hints to tip off Saten were clever. Apparently, Telestina didn't expect there to a regular human in their team (besides Kiyama).

Kongou's power is fascinating. Too bad it took so long for us to see it in action.

this is more like a side story to the original season, after all, in season one ("To Aru Majitsu no Index") misaka wasn't a very often guest, as l understand it, this is answering what was Misaka doing when not having screen time in index.

I seriously thought it was going to be some sort of big let down, but it proved otherwise.

Finished watching Index a few hours after Railgun last night, now I'm wondering what the timeline was, is Railgun after Index or do they overlap

(click to show/hide)

also possible that Railgun took place before Index too, you can see Saten in a cafe with Misaka and co in Index's opening, but Saten doesn't meet them for the first time until the beginning of Railgun.  Accelerator, the SISTERS and Last Order are nowhere to be seen in Railgun.  Can't tell if Touma was pre or post memory loss from his few cameo's and he isn't shown with Index till the very end

[sdedalus83]

It runs parallel but looks like it ends some time before Touma runs into the sisters.  I'm also pretty sure

he loses his memory after he saves them from the exploding teddy bear, and probably after they run into each other backstage before her concert.  There's some big event between them that he's forgotten which leads to her discovering the secret and it's probably one or both of those two

they run starting at different times, but Railgun ends like the above says, sometime before Touma meets sisters, the event by Misaka performance is what made her suspicious later in index, the two shows run in seperate timelapse but they go around much differently.

how to explain, while railgun goes the events in index are also going slowly, thing is, the huge time lapse passed in Railgun is much smaller than in index.

Now that I think more about it wouldn't most of Railgun have taken place well before Index? and at least the second half of Railgun should be before or during the first arc of Index, since the super computer ,Tree Diagram, was destroyed by Index at the end of that arc.  Can't remember in railgun if they were still using Tree Diagram or just using old data from it in the level upper arc

[Duki3003]

(click to show/hide)

The whole purpose of level upper arc was to create a bio computer to replace the need for Tree Diagram... Although you are correct - iirc there is no line mentioning whether the Tree Diagram has been destroyed or not at the time - it's only mentioned that Kiyama-sensei couldn't get access no matter how many time she requested...

i would think that episode 19 took place after Touma lost his memory and before they meet again and become friends. The part when he meets Misaka before her recital makes it seem like he does not remember her

[GoGeTa006]

so the coin transformed into a dragonball-z beam. . .

mmm

[dbml]

I found it to be a pretty solid series, even better than Index. I am a bit disappointed though. I really wanted there to be a big arc of Accelerator and Last Order

[vuzedome]

Yes, without the sisters or the last order, this seems a bit incomplete.

[Temuthril]

Accelerator & Last Order were in Index, why would you want to see the same story multiple times?

[vuzedome]

Fanservice!!

[Havoc10K]

well it would be interesting, since those stories were interesting, but Railgun takes place a bit long before sisters arc so this ending was good.

and it wasn't cain > DBZ BEAM
she used that claw that kuroko dropped for her.

[IKillKittens]

Hmmm, I was actually watching both series somewhat in order to the timeline by chance, I didn't even know of Index till about a month ago.  I didn't realize it at the time so it didn't change anything, but I bet some moments would've 'clicked' and I'd be like 'sweet'

I found it to be a pretty solid series, even better than Index. I am a bit disappointed though. I really wanted there to be a big arc of Accelerator and Last Order

I enjoyed Railgun much more than Index, found Touma to be pretty boring as the main, really just watched Index for more Misaka

Accelerator & Last Order were in Index, why would you want to see the same story multiple times?

They probably don't mean they want to see the same story again, more likely follow up/cameo.  But people rewatch a series sometimes, so there are definitely people out there that would want to see the same story multiple times

On a side note, just remembered Uiharu's power, ouch lol
