I guess u mean it hits DIVINE after science can't explain it.

Yeah, due science (of our world) can't do anything to explain the science (of Toaru's world) after getting up to divine levels.

Better question would be what can block his arm, it starts to get annoying -_-

Punching it,pounding it,shocking it,anything not supernatural. DON'T slice it off though. If u do ur dead or will shit urself or have ur chest feel so tight it might rip from the fear of what'll happen.

How was he able to stop the explosion in episode 7 of Railgun when the explosion was a side effect of the can collapsing on itself?

The explosion created directly through an esper power still counts as supernatural, otherwise the heat from supernatural fire or lightning can still hurt him.

Now if the can had shards shooting at him he cant stop that.

he can still stop it because the force behind it is the impact of the explosion created by the super natural ability but the problem is if the fragment is strips in sharp edge.

Hell I think don't do anything to the arm...best chance anyone in the series have so far of taking him down may be those thugs in the first ep....

meh, pretty sure Kaori would have had a better chance, if she wanted to...also, misha and tsuchimikado

First of all I have only seen the anime and some of the manga untranslated. not sure if the light novels and manga will be translated now that Funimation has picked up season 1 of Index and the Rail-gun side story series, but one can hope.. Anyway I looked at all posts and Touma and what he can block and yeah i know its an old dead topic but i just had to put my opinion on something I did not see posted.

In Regards to Mikoto's Rail-gun attack, depending if what you go by(again only see less than most of you) he can seemingly block her attack with his right hand. Now was this do to an error in the creator or was it intentional because Touma is a main character and face it Mikoto's rail-gun could kill. It certainly will injure, take for example last episode in the Rail-gun anime. She fired it first at Gensei's granddaughter, who stated she knew all attack pattern and the rail-gun with the coin has a range of 50 meters, yet Mikoto states that coins are not the only thing she can use and then of course uses part of the broken mech arm. Does this change things for Touma or not, no one really can say.

Also in regards to Touma, was it instinct that he put his right hand up to stop her attack or was it something more. again debatable. but one thing I think we all can agree on is that if his right hand was not planned in each occurrence to stop her attack, most likely he would be hurt by her rail-gun since it wold hit someplace other that his hand.

But of course with all that is said and done in both the manga, novels and anime chances are slim to none that that will ever be seen or read happening.

I guess that's why the Index anime changed it to Mikoto shocking Touma instead of firing Railgun at him.

hao-sama · 2012-03-30, 05:22

touma has precognition. he'll probably react to mikoto's powers without fail unless there were extenuating circumstances.

there are multiple evidences that touma can block a railgun.

It seems that even the railgun won‘t hurt him.

However, Kamijou's [Imagine Breaker] only works on the power of strange talents. To put it simply, it protects him from an ESP's fireball, but not the ash and smoke the fireball created. Its effectiveness was also limited to "from the right wrist onward"; if any other place were to be hit by that fireball, it would be consumed by flames.

well... smoke and ash is created when a fireball actually hits or burns something. fire by itself in superpowers don't make those.

as for the graviton explosion, i believe that the explosion itself is from the energy released when the gravitons were accelerated. wouldn't protect him from shrapnel though, but i'm pretty sure any stray aluminum would've melted from a blast of that power.
