    Toaru Majutsu no Index



    * Based on a light novel series by Kamachi Kazuma, illustrated by Haimura Kiyotaka.

    Alternative title:
    A Certain Magical Index
    とある魔術の禁書目録(インデックス)

    Genres: action, drama, fantasy, science fiction

    Set in a city of scientifically advanced superhuman students, but in a world where magic is also real. Toma Kamijo's right hand, the Imagine Breaker, will negate all magic, psychic, or divine powers, but not his own bad luck. One day he finds a young girl hanging on his balcony railing. She turns out to be a nun from the Church of England, and her mind has been implanted with the Index-Librorum-Prohibitorum - all the magical texts the Church has removed from circulation.

    I believe its because more and more animes in Japan are being broadcasted in HD, and the anime industry in general doesnt want to have its anime, which looked fine in cable, look crappy in HD.

    Ahhah! We got a most excellent choice here:

    Episode 1 HD - Eclipse-m.3.3.w
    Episode 1 SD - Eclipse-m.3.3.w

    I watched AoShen's version already but it's pretty much a nobrainer which sub I'll be watching from now on.

    I enjoyed this pretty much. When we were first introduced to the railgun girl it suddenly clicked. I read the first 2 chapters to the manga "To Aru Kagaku no Railgun" awhile back and I had no idea these two were related. Good to know.

    I liked this a lot more than I thought I would. The main characters power is interesting in that it actually has a drawback (balance is always fun). And I found the humor surprisingly fun. I've always had a soft spot for delayed reaction clothes disintegrations.

    Hopefully this show will go somewhere interesting, though I don't think we can hope for it to go somewhere all that new.

    I enjoyed the first episode of this quite a bit. Its definitely one of the series I'll be picking up. Given seeing that Eclipse/M.3.3.W. were subbing it made me instantly download episode 1 and I wasn't disappointed at all. Never taunt a guy into showing you he really can blow up your clothing .

    The AoShen subs are absolute garbage, but whatever.

    This series really feels like Shana (a good thing). A lot of contrasting blazing reds, and ice blue's make for a really nice effect ala Shana.

    I'm just glad Eclipse is still subbing it.

    I'm enjoying this show as well. Index seems like an interesting character, and being a loli nun is just too cool. Mikoto is a bad bitch as well, and I love how they animate her creating/disrupting electrical flow.

    I was waiting for there to be a drawback to his power for a while. I do not want to see Touma raising his hand in the air during every fight for however long this series is going to be. That said, it was clever of him to trip the sprinkler system and give Steele a good old fashioned knuckle sammich.

    Like Yuki said, balance is always good. Touma's got a potent power that's difficult to harness, and won't work in all situations. Not a one-power-owns-all, he'll have to use his brains when the time comes, and that's what makes this show enjoyable. Index rebooting really shows how she's really just a storage device - something impossible to imagine from her cheery, loli self.

    Agreed. I'm still not too sure how cool the main character is, but since he didn't run, I think I'm liking this series quite well.

    Just watched the first two episodes, and I'm really enjoying this so far. Though he whole nullifying ability aspect has occured many times before, I think this is giving it an interesting take. Just as he might be overpowering against some things, that he can nullify things can make him weaker against others. I also like that it's an involuntary thing, and how it affects even his normal daily life with "unfortunate" accidents, etc.

    We'll see how it goes, if they can keep the action well animated and interesting, I think the plot can take care of itself.

    Hmm....you just can't get away from comparing this show with Shana. Fuzetsu anyone? It was good to see some background info, though I'm sure this won't be the end of it (info feeding). It's also interesting to learn that magic, the means of untalented people to use supernatural powers, also has its drawbacks in the form of destroying the user.
    The flame magician confused me. Is he saying that he used to house the 103K books?
