one could hope Funimation picks up the second season of index and the movie. But due to the long wait for season one of both index and railgun one would have to wonder.

Funimation states it will be based on popularity of the show. Seeing as railgun getting a second season and had a OVA released already and that index has a movie and finished its second season some time ago in japan. I as a fan of both shows have my doubts.

Writing a 200 page novel for this movie might sound impressive until you realize that Kamachi wrote seven books last year.

There's some doubt as to whether this "Kamachi" guy actually exists.

Kamachi.exe

Anywho, I would decry myself for not living in japan but then I remembered I couldn't read japanese if my life depended on it so cheers to whoever gets the novels

No wonder supplies are limited if each person who sees the movie receives 103,000 copies xD

Might be worth rewriting that bit to something like:
"The first people who see the A Certain Magical Index movie in theatres will receive one of 103,000 copies of the 224-page A Certain Magical Index: Road to Endymion novel, which was written by the series' original creator Kazuma Kamachi exclusively for this promotion."

As for the page count, 224 pages sounds like a lot. Especially considering that when writing my novel (which was around 250 A5 pages), it took me about 6 months (and editing a further 30 months but we'll keep quiet about that). However, I'd imagine that said novel is typical bunko size, which is less than A5.

103,000 books of magic. LOLOLOL I hope no fan missed that bit of humor.

On a side note... yeah Kazuma writes so much it's almost hard to keep up with. He even has the 6th volume of New Testament coming out today or tomorrow... crazy... but awesome.
