Besides, the worst character in the franchise is Index. God, I hate everything about Index. |

actually, theres a news article RIGHT here that states otherwise! where due to the author's health, the railgun manga would be in a temp hiatus which was the reason why volumes 12 and 13 got held back for so long! |

The last Railgun chapter (a special) released just last month - it's a montly manga (and it's obviously way ahead of the anime anyway, which makes it irrelevant to your entire point of "we'll not know this soon"), and the last Index novel released at the start of February. But please, do find this article about the "author's health" that you claim is right here. Unless you somehow think that the anime getting delayed because of the covid-19 means that Kamachi is actually sick, which got JC Staff to stop working on the anime in order to nurse him

I get the feeling that she felt threatened by Mikoto and it was a bit more than just not being able to trust her. Scenes like the one from Ep 1 of Railgun S (which was originally in this arc of the manga) seem like she is trying to intimidate by putting up a strong front out of fear. Most of the people in the city who are powerful, either from their ability or their influence, are pretty corrupt and evil (even if some do get redemption arcs). I think it is also jealousy. |

Hold up; that's a completely different character. The person talking to Xochitl is also a member of ... ... MEMBER... He's the Professor that the #2 Kakine swiftly deals with in Index III Episode 5. That said, you're entirely forgiven for not remembering due to how horribly that arc he was in was adapted.
From partway through Railgun T Episode 4 onwards, the story is occurring the day after the Stab Sword incident with Oriana. The fireworks that the girls watched were the same that prevented the Croce di Pietro from triggering in Index II Episode 13. |

Yeah... it looked like all of the other guards were adults. There didn't seem to be any student age espers on payroll. I would also expect Gensei's guards to have been shown a list of powerful people that may be out to get him, and I would expect Mikoto should be fairly high on that list. Then again, it was a setup. Maybe he intentionally hired a 3rd rate security company... |

I was just about to say that, I got my hopes up that best boy was gonna do something but when he passed out I thought, 'right. he can't even lift a finger without his... cpu? I forget precisely what it is they do but its pretty important, for you know living. I think this has been the most exciting episode of railgun to date, at least for me, the stakes are finally serious and immediate. That everything in past seasons have culminated to this has me impressed and I wish I'd rewatched the series sometime before this season because there was a lot of fine details that i'd forgotten thinking it wouldn't be relevant. knowing that this happens during s2 or index or before s3 is disappointing since now I know misaka will be just fine with no visible consequences. I suppose that's just what happens when you write a spin-off that uses the same characters. However misaki being aleister's favourite was a shocker, I'd always thought it was Touma or Accelerator since I don't recall him ever involving himself(in any of the schemes) with Misaki except for lv6 shift and the sisters but that was all supposed to be for Accelerator's benefit. Does make me wonder, will this mean that she'd be stronger than Accelerator with his black wings or at his strongest state? Presumably she won't keep this 'power up' going forward but it might appear in future seasons of index as a brief burst of power like how Accelerator randomly does stuff he shouldn't have been able to do like singing aka spoiler[casting magic] |

Pretty much this. Gensei's line in the manga never gelled well with the LNs as Misaka just isn't important to Aleister outside of her contribution to the clones. The Misaka Network has always been the most important thing comparable to Kamijou and Accelerator. |

Oof, that picture is gonna spoil anybody who's late to the party this week. My condolences, anime-only crowd.
The level 6 shift attempt on Misaka, hard to believe we're here at last. I greatly envy anybody who doesn't know what's coming, getting to watch what unfolds animated for their first time. But I do wonder if J.C. Staff will be able to handle the biggest surprise yet to come. |

I did consider this, but ultimately decided that this shot was just too good to pass up on using. |

It was definitely the right call. I probably would've done the same.

Well, looks like we are about to hit an absurd scale for Index's power battles. Accelerator vs Kakine in theory should be restrained compared to what this will be. I just hope the animation for this fight will be better than the disappointing Accelerator vs Kakine fight (long story short, issues with editing, visual effects and general feel of impact)
