I figure Misaki's actions right now are just her trolling Mikoto again...

Not really participate because I also don't but its really funny to read people troll each other. Really. Some comments are funny when one complains about Mikoto wasting space on the book and other says its for sales but overall its a fun read to waste time and wait for spoilers.

They mostly seem to be blaming it on Miki (since he's in charge of the marketing side of things) and Haimura (since he's said before he likes to avoid spoilers on the cover).
Lesson of the day.

As always don't believe the cover.
I always blamed Miki for this kind of things e.e.

Just like other said, the cover was for the hype of Railgun anime.

It can't be helped. We know its true when you add fanboy appealing covers the books sells more like NT03 .

Yes, but the hype seems to be more justified for NT07 as it does look pretty awesome.

Is it me or has the average length of a volume been rising ever since NT04?

It works on harem ecchi light novel so why not use it in Index too. Its marketing strategy. Which is why its funny when the topic of argument is always fall on Mikoto. Really, people

Well, what do you expected? Isn't she the most popular female character on the Toaru polls? e.e

@Hiss13: Answer yourself, was the hype because of the current content or because the (misleading) premise and cover?

Point taken. Even so, hype is still hype no matter what it is directed at. While I would rather see hype directed at the content, I can't really say anything without sounding like a hypocrite since I, like most of us here, was drawn into the hype created by the cover.

Although, I just realized...but I don't think anyone pointed out how overly simplistic the premise given by the summary was at this point and time in the series...

Weirdly, I never thought of it that way. I figured the reason she was showing up so much lately was to hype her for a future role in the novels, just like what happened with Birdway.

I know how that feels. The worst part is when you're waking up in the morning with a hangover, missing teeth and some random text message from an old man in the neighbourhood telling you to not get near their granddaughter anymore.

This was the first thing I thought when I saw the whole Rensa blocking his precognition thing in the spoilers. Kinda like the Tsuna vs Strau Mosca fight.

Although, I thought that Touma's precognition was more of a sensitivity to changes in AIM fields, physical fields, and mana flow.

I'm not that bad believe me haha ... man, even though I'm drunk, I can't stop myself checking on Toaru news.... wanna see how NT7 go now.

I feel like Misaka and Misaki appearance will spice up the story and yeah they both are being loved by many of us here. Isn't Kamachi always start with comedic parts before enter the full battle

Nah, it's mostly about him subconsciously noticing some hints in the environment. Good example might be him feeling/hearing the vibrations of metallic objects when Miko's about to fire a railgun, or when she sparks a bit before firing a lightning, or Accel having a "I'm going to transform you into a peace of meat" look on his face before he's attempting to do something, Fiamma's trademark gesture before his offensive spell are activated, intuitions about how certain magician thinks (so when they suddenly disappear it's most of the time to teleport behind the target), etc.

After all, there is no logical way to explain these repeated coincidences.
Miksaki knew Touma before memory lost.

Desrtsku: ignore the accel gay shit. Join the stupid wars with mikoto fans BWAAHAHAHA Index mascot but still can't be compare to Saber.
So, possibility of them childhood friends, eh? If it became true then my prediction that was thought upon way before the reveal of Misaki's name and figure as the 5th level 5 will be true.

If so, allow me this.
