Out of many of the newer anime from the last few seasons, I think To Aru Majutsu no Index is one of the best. I’ve always had a soft spot when it comes to magic and science mixed together. That alone made Index worth checking out for many.

Although the pacing of the story could use some work, overall the show was great. It could have used more scenes with Index explaining things like she did during the first arc, but otherwise it has a pretty good of balance between telling the story, giving each character enough screentime and great action scenes.

The ending was quite sudden (again, the pacing sucks) and even after Tsuchimikado explained it, I still didn’t get what the Imaginary Numbers Sector or whatever it’s called actually is. Not to mention it seems that the one controlling Academy City, the upside down guy in a giant tube, was a magician called Aleister Crowley.

Guess that means we’ll just have to wait for the new season to come out, which doesn’t look like it will be anytime soon. Most likely To Aru Kagaku no Railgun will be released first – not that I’m complaining. Misaka is such a brilliant character and she just doesn’t get enough screen time 😀

I mean, who would refuse more of this!

Shakugan no To Aru Majutsu no Index-tan

Why?

Quote Index-tan: “That’s because the publisher and studio are the same!”

J.C. Staff must have been pretty bored to come up with Shana-tan, so they’re probably WAY beyond bored when they decided to make an Index-tan. Not that I’m complaining, it’s funny and entertaining, and I don’t mind more of this chibified insanity.

“uruchai, uruchai, uruchai!”

Index-tan even did the “uruchai, uruchai, uruchai” sequence on top of Touma’s head. It would have been better if Shana-tan had made an appearance and told Index-tan to “uruchai”. Hmm, now there’s an idea for J.C. Staff the next time they have nothing better to do.

Or they could also do a Zero no Louis-tan. It will be exactly like Shana-tan, just in a slightly different setting. And instead of demanding Saito to “chut up”, she would start barking out that he’s a tiny widdle puppy.

I wonder if that meant she trashed Atsushi Abe (Touma’s seiyuu) as well…

Shizuka Ito (Kanzaki’s seiyuu) got pissed drunk at the launch party of the series and vented all her frustrations on a poor abused Touma when asked about it here. I lost it at this point and started to laugh like a mad man. If you did too, then welcome to the club.

Damn, now I’m hungry for nasi goreng too…

I hope there’s more XD
