Wow, first long last name in the Raildex fandom... not... forgot there's Tsukimikado... I think I spelled it wrong.

But anyways, I also did a search after obtaining the digital c/p version of the kanji thanks to a friend and I got these:

柳迫【やぎさこ】 (kanji info) name
Yagisako (s)

柳迫【やなぎさこ】 (kanji info) name
Yanagisako (s)

柳迫満【やなぎさこみつる】 (kanji info) name
Yanagisako Mitsuru (h) (1975.4.6-)

柳迫【やなはく】 (kanji info) name
Yanahaku (s)

柳迫【やなさこ】 (kanji info) name
Yanasako (s)

柳迫【やなせこ】 (kanji info) name
Yanaseko (s)

I'm guessing we'll have to wait for Project Railgun to officially release the romaji of Aomi's name in their character profiles... OTL

Do you mean an offshoot of Index? Because the former sounds plausible, while an offshoot of an offshoot doesn't.

shotgunsuzie · 2010-02-15, 12:48

i am interested to see if there was going to be a sequel as to the off-shoot, i found the info i needed

The series was made into a manga, beginning serialization in May 2007, and an anime[1] which aired between October 2008 and March 2009, containing twenty-four episodes.

Guys, are there mentions of the names of the following characters in Toaru Kagaku no Railgun?
> the Pyrokinesist in Episode 1
> the Equal Speed guy in Episode 5
> the Flux Coat girl in Episode 8

Avegaille · 2010-03-10, 05:39

^ Nope, no mentions of them... not sure if the credits help, but if you can read the kanji there as well as knowing their seiyuus, it might give you a hint.

Marcus H. · 2010-03-10, 07:25

Deym, then I'm forced to refer to them as those on my last post then. D:
As of now, there are still NO updates on Project Railgun and on Haimura's site.

Avegaille · 2010-03-10, 08:06

I'm guessing Project Railgun will update their character list after the last episode airs or something... I'm checking constantly to see if they update it somehow. =/

(also, makes me wonder why they gave Aomi a last name that is kinda hard to figure out in romanized form)

Marcus H. · 2010-03-21, 08:21

Thanks to the image Avegaille handed out to me, I've extracted the name from the results from the screenshot and discovered that the Pyrokinesist's name is Okahara Ryouta (丘原燎多).

EDIT: WTH? I should have checked this for that. I felt like I wasted my effort squinting in the monitor to sort out the blurred kanji. D:

PLUS: I lol'd when I saw how Hitotsui Hajime is kanjified: 一一一.

Nya~n · 2010-03-21, 08:46

that... is a pretty rad name.

While there are parts of this anime that have bonus points for anyone who has seen To Aru Majitsu no Index, it is not required to understand the overarching plot or any given episode.

The only warning I'll give is that the cameos of Index-main characters will feel extremely odd, as you'll have no backstory for their scenes. As long as you remember that Railgun is a side-story to Index, and that there will be things you sort of shrug at that any fan of Index will squee wildly about, you can certainly enjoy Railgun by itself.

However, even a passing knowledge of Index will increase enjoyment of Railgun, so I really recommend you watch Index too. Even a couple episodes, just to get a groundwork of what's going on over there (and Misaka's place in it all).

Seihai · 2010-03-21, 11:54

Maybe watching Railgun before watching Index would also be alright, if not even make more sense.

tsunade666 · 2010-03-21, 16:48

Its alright to watch railgun before index or more likely watch them separately. Their are large amount of problem due to the time line of railgun that will make one confusing to even tell if they REALLY run along together.

qwertyuiopz · 2010-03-26, 14:47

am i the only one that likes index more than this one? l0l
i really dunno why they didnt continue the storyline

tsunade666 · 2010-03-27, 06:29

I love index than railgun. I hate railgun. Great I finally said it again. I hate railgun ANIME!!!!

I don't think J.C.STAFF is the type of studio that would start on something and then leave it hanging forever.

So, we're going to get TAMNI season 2 somehow, if not this year, maybe next year, but nothing was mentioned of TAMNI ending just like that, I mean the light novels are still on-going.
