*emerges from the Hell called Final exams*

Huh… only two left from Phase 1.

So… when I watched To Aru I liked it. And that’s all, I couldn’t say more. It was… good. First I said it was just like Shana, but with more focus on the story than the action. And I liked that.

So if I think back (I’ve followed the series properly) I think To Aru is more like Touhou, without danmaku, and with more talking. Wacky stories with wacky loli characters, where everybody takes everything serious, except the series itself.

Dunno about Railgun, I don’t really like her.

@all Thanks for the feedback guys! I tried to make it as entertaining as possible, because I know TL;DR stuff is pretty tedious to sit through and digest.

@Hypernova: Haha, probably. I know of some people who could need such feather treatment XD And don’t worry, I don’t think I got the point myself. I think the one who understands me the least is myself. ^^;

@Ryan: And you didn’t reproach me that I spoiled you. I think this is a 大成功!!!

Railgun Animu FTW! Bet they’ll fill it with all kind of fanservice. I’ll hate them if they do (though I wouldn’t mind to see moar nugunugu Biribiri either…)

Awesome! Very entertaining read, and it sort of makes me want to finish it when I left off at ep6. I guess the first 6 episodes were sort of an improper start to the series since it gave reason to believe Index would be darker than it came out to be. From the read, I’m guessing its actually quite enjoyable when not wanting it to be something that it may have seemed to be in the first 6 episodes….

but who knows. Perhaps JC Staff is just holding out on the viewers. In any case, Railgun animu. F’kyaaas!

Index was a show with its share of hits and misses, but overall it was an enjoyable series. Looking forward to Railgun!

Just want to comment on the last point, he lost his “event memories”, so he still can breath and eat and speak, etc. Kinda convenient, doesn’t it? Well, the feather was intend to be backup plan for deleting Index’s memories after all, so it’s acceptable I think. I would still think he should have a lot of trouble in school though. It’s not like he can reinvent all the math he learned so far. We can just say he re-learn it all at some point though.

BTW, interesting read, though I’m not sure I get what you are trying to say :)
