To Aru Majutsu no Index II - Episode 6 Discussion / Poll

[zaeraal]

well about saten cameo.
I managed to screen 2 pics -

first one showing 2 students wearing sakugawa middle school uniform, but their heads werent shown, so only hope remain. (this scene apears 2 times in this episode)

this second picture shows a person very very similar to saten, except that she has a shorter skirt.

again, both scenes apear for a very short time. first one around 6:33-6:35 and repeated 15:44-15:46
second one about 4:21-4:22

[Haak]

You have no idea how unintentionlly funny you are. You just totally made my day. XD

That shower scene is prob what Railgun fans wanted to see as well as the shopping trip. I thought that kick was funny.

That talk with LO doesn't have to take place in a bathroom. Really the thought "pedo" was going thru my mind as I saw that scene animated. Maybe that could be a reason why it's not there.

[SuzushinaYuriko]

That talk with LO was cute because it was basically a water war between Accel and LO. Also, pedo? Yomikawa forced him to take a bath with LO, thus why he was yelling "YOMIKAWA! WHY THE HELL DO I HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF THIS BRAT?"

Can't say there is enough proof to... uh shatter the hopes into a self-imploding kaboom with complete prejudice, but... can't say there isn't any either.

Yeah, pedo. Not normal for a male teen to be cleaning himself in a bathroom with a 10 yo girl. Most female guardians would know better.

Not normal also to have a towel on in a bathtub full of water. Kind of defeats the purpose of having a towel.

[SuzushinaYuriko]

But Accel wasn't anywhere near her and did nothing remotely close to acting like a pedo. Last Order and Accel were also both wearing towels and remember that bathing routines work quite differently in Japan than it does here.

They're not relatives. Bath etiquette

If she is Saten, who's next to her in the last screencap?

They're pretty much adopted siblings.

I recall another series Kure-nai had people talking because a teenager in a bathhouse looking out for a young girl.

It's only as dirty as you want to think it to be, for anybody else who had to take care of children...

[Kamonichan]

If only dirty if you want it to be, and since the point of bathing is to get clean, it's not dirty.

And with that bad pun aside, this has been bothering me for a while, but do they ever reveal what Touma said to the Aztec sun-knife guy that makes Misaka blush? She's been bringing it up quite a bit, in ep. 1 and now ep. 6, and it's driving me crazy. Not sure which light novel to look. I'm hoping they'll reveal it later in the anime, and by later, I mean this arc.

Or it means that Accelerator can be trusted not to do anything sexual to Last Order in a bathroom, which pretty much means he isn't pedo.

Really, pedophilia only applies in case of a sexual interest in underage children. Simply being around underage children doesn't make you a pedo. Otherwise, every doctor, nurse, caretaker, teacher or anyone else who gets close to a kid he/she isn't related to could be classified as that.

[Kamonichan]

Thanks for that. Also, apparently, she may not have brought up Touma this past episode. One translator implies that she did, another doesn't. From 19:52~20:01, I wasn't sure if she was saying "That idiot AND my roommate said" or "That idiot, my roommate, said." The former made me think "[Touma] and [Kuroko] said."

Either way, many thanks for again.

Edit: Referring to what zeniselv said.

[zeniselv]

well its actually not pedo if they both are underage, and isnt wrong if wathever they do htey do it with love.

Well, like I said as long as it makes it in somehow, it would be a nice closure to the LO arc in season 1. It was pretty obvious the scenes I called useless were meant for Railgun fans, but I think there's been enough Lesboko going gaga over Sparky in their own series and it's inevitable sequel for them to be able to make room for new stuff with, well, relevance.

I didn't get any pedo vibes from the bath scene. Then again I didn't get much pedo vibes from the main pair in Kurenai either so maybe that's why.

No that's not it.

That was what the fake-Mitsuki asked Touma to promise him, which he did.

As for the exact words Touma said to promise him... That was what the fake-Mitsuki called the "Worst Possible Answer" and that was what made Mikoto blushed like crazy...

It's the major tease that the fans will probably never know, just to keep the magic of the scene

Once again, you've raised my hopes and dashed them quite nicely. Bravo, sir! Guess I'll never know. I'll just assume he gave a 5-minute long speech declaring his undying love for Misaka and that all implications to the contrary are his cleverly planned ruse so that none may know of his secret love for Misaka. That or he sang: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLPYxZu3AmE

That probably WOULD be the worst possible response. But screw the magic of the scene, this is a world of SCIENCE! And where magic and science collide, there the story begins, so that scene is obviously the start of the real story of Index, i.e. Touma and Misaka's love. I said it, and I can't unsay it.

[tsunade666]

real story? Touma and Misaka's LOVE? that's just purely a promise between men. Touma realize the real feelings of quatzel. He likes Mikoto but he can't do anything to go against the higher ups or he would end up dead. His the same as Tsuchimikado. His an omyouji originally a member of necesarius and a magician but works for science side and because he wants to protects Maika and it's not like he can do anything against the directors. His tied to both ends of two opposing sides. Trying to bridge both.

They fight for what they believe in and sometimes they also fight for the opposite of what they believe and asking someone to stop them.

but the real point is Touma promise Quatzel he would protect Misaka's and the world she lives in. That's all.

[Wilfriback]

Touma even refers to the aztec magician as "hot blooded guy in love".
