Hmm, I wonder if anyone has any options about this image here: http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/8...nual080809.jpg
It's kinda big, but I think I posted it at the image thread... Anyway, I was just wondering if we're still going to continue using Telestina or Therestina? o__o;; |

Well, the Japanese have this habit of using "R"s where they should be using "L"s when they try to spell something in english, since there is no "L" in the Japanese language at all. Thus they're in the habit of speaking any western "L" sound with an "R" vowel, and end up carrying this habit into whenever they try to spell "L" words in english.
Where's that screenshot of "Operation Clitical" when you need it.....

Nevertheless, romanization conventions dictate that the sound is depicted with an "R", hence they might be more likely to misspell English words with that letter too. |

is it recommended to watch To Aru Kagaku no Railgun? is it action packed too? or can i just skip this show entirely because its just about slice of life and not much action? i just finished watching To Aru Majutsu Index I and i catched up on the latest episode of To Aru Majutsu Index II

If you want the slice of life of Railgun just for the sake of watching Mikoto and/or Kuroko, there is the anime. |

IMO, the set pieces are vastly superior to anything you'll find in Index (better storyboarding/direction + strict budget management that allowed them to splurge whenever it was necessary). The Railgun team did an excellent job on the key action episodes. However, there aren't many of them.

Railgun (anime) is kind of less talk; more action if you compare it with Index.

But it has less talk so it feels like its more straight to the point.
Fine I'll reword it. Railgun has better action not more action. Happy?

If it's about Accelerator we already have a sneak peek in episode 7 so we all know what to expect... Only with more blood this time.
In all honesty they're both pretty much the same, only that in Railgun we get plenty more flashy colours courtesy of Mikoto so let's just leave it at that -_- Besides, we all know that the best action scenes are not from Index or Railgun, but from Group... And they aren't even animated yet! That's how awesome they are!

Railgun still has the better action though IMHO. I mean its directed and choreographed better. Though now that I notice it is not as much as I thought since it is part slice of life. I do like Mikoto's flashy colorful scenes more than Touma's falcon punch. Different opinions for different folks I guess. Though I do get the point that I haven't read the novels and all my basis is from the anime of both series. And I do like Index also.
