Well Touma's actual fight could've been handled better but I rather liked this episode even if it did feel a little rushed. It hints at a lot of underground currents and a deeper mystery that I like about this series. Plus Accelerator is just a far more interesting character than Touma. If the series keeps giving him equal screentime then I will be able to enjoy is a lot more.
I don't like how Misaka's mom just decided that it's okay for her daughter to remain in a city that's about to enter war just because of Touma. That just seems a little much to me. Plus the fact that Touma is also a Level 0 is rather focal to his point and that's a little ambiguous. I mean, i can believe he can still be classified a another Level 0 that's been through the same hardships but it's something that ought to have been elaborated on considering his Imagine Breaker has been very useful for him, and unlike the Skillouts like the leader, they obtained weapons to combat that discrimination whilst Touma didn't and has had it the entire time. The only bit of discrimination we've seen Touma encounter is at the start of season one and that was played for laughs. I would've rather liked Saten to beat the crap out of that guy instead of Touma. She could use her bat of justice...

Might not be making a coherent point and might be jumping all over the place here. But in the end just saying I think Touma's speech this time was ridiculous. The general society treatment might be similar, but the fact that it's by Touma's choice makes it different.

For the record, where would you put him on the scale?
If anything he's anti-esper/magician. I don't think it'd be appropiate to place him anywhere on the scale. From lvl 1 - 5 they can perform feats that would be considered impossible or supernatural but it means nothing against him. It's like he's bringing them back to being a regular human being. Since he focuses a lot on street fighting that puts his fighting skill above them. So in other words, people like Kihara would completely decimate him in a one-on-one fight. Against a nigh-invincible guy like Accelator it would be an almost unfair fight. |

Yes, he can stop an unordinary attack, but he can't stop an ordinary one. In all definitions, he is technically a level zero. At most he could be bumped up to level one. Level two and above are absolutely not until he gains more control over his power. Level fives can take out entire armies- Touma has problems with just two to three delinquents. Besides, it's less of his choice then it is Aleister's choice if you think about it. Do you honestly think Aleister is gonna let his biggest ace in the hole reveal his power to the world at large? |

I liked this episode a lot. It didn't feel rushed to me, I think it was at an okay pace. It's too bad season 3 might not air for a long time... ugh. I also wish they animated perfectly like they did in this episode. This time like a couple of other episodes the quality was top notch. I Loved how they brought back "gensou goroshi" from the first ever OST. I love that bgm and I thought it fit perfectly in the fight with touma and shiage. Since this last episode has finally aired, does anyone know the release date for the 2nd OST? I know this may not be directly related to episode 24, but I was just wondering.

I'm pretty sure the whole level system is tied in with the schools and their tests, and they appear to be totally unaware of Touma's power. Crowley and Frog Face are both clearly aware of his power, and both are willing to keep his power a secret. Crowley clearly wants to use him, and Frog Face respects his privacy. The reasons Touma is keeping it a secret is somewhat of a mystery - most students would have gladly proclaimed any power they possess very early in the process. There is so little detail on pre-Index Touma to work with here.
If we use the Railgun anime's scale of power usage, Touma would be in the database as level 0*, with a footnote like "except when he's beating up Level 5's". |

Oh thanks for that. Sucks to have to wait over a month for that. Oh well. But I have both break through and gensou goroshi... and I'm pretty sure that they used gensou goroshi. I've watched that scene over and over(cuz it's cool) and gensou goroshi has the guitar play melody then the piano. There's no piano in break through. But yeah... correct me if I'm wrong but I think it was definitely gensou goroshi.

I think you meant Tsuchimikado.
Well Tsuchimikado doesn't need to rely on his magic if he uses a gun and a skilled fighter. Unlike Touma who's more like a thug. Tsuchimikado is a martial art expert.

Well Tsuchimikado CAN use magic, in fact he's the only character that uses magic and a gun.
But his magic is like 'blood magic', if you get the referrence, minus the allpowerfulness and the cheaper casting.

Overall good episode,but I am tired of Touma shouting " SMASH THAT ILLUSION OF YOURS!!!" to everyone even to people without any magic/esper abilities. I understand that he means the morality and his enemy's worldview, but it's sounds awful when he uses this phrase too much.
Accelerator owns the show together with some oppai. And Index again biting Touma at the end,well, not very entertaining. I mean again she bit him for nothing or just cuz he said he was lucky??
