No, not that, was talking about how the amount of copies sold for a volume didn't suffer a major drop compared to the precedent one. (ex : Index II vol.1 sold 18k, Index II vol.2 sold 17.6k, Index II vol.3 sold 17.3k, etc ... I made up those values just in case someone asks)

The part that dragged down the fillers for me when they had filler episodes dedicated to the smallest characters. That anti-skill women with glasses, and the dorm manager. I just couldn't get into their episodes. I was also annoyed they stuck a fan service swimsuit episode in between the level upper climax and epilogue. The PV only really shows the beginning of the anime, and it makes sense that the first episode is filler to reintroduce viewers to the setting. Time will tell how the fillers are handled. Of course, my biggest fear is going to be if the anime teams starts making to many changing to what happened in the manga and ruin the amazing atmosphere the manga created. Not that I'm going to let that dampen my excitement for this show.

As for filler, I think that's ok but timeline wise it might get difficult. Railgun still has to work with the Index timeline so it would take some maneuvering to get into a position where they could find a time to have the filler material. First season managed to fix that by making set before Index technically began but this one can't do that. |

There are gaps time wise in the arc, where could be placed without breaking up the pace of the story. Mostly near the beginning of the arc before things get serious. We'll see how the filler is handled. I think timeline wise, it makes sense to have the filler material placed so the season ends with the sister arc ending. Of course, if the anime team decides to finally animate one of the side stories novels packed in with the Index DVD, they could fill up the whole season with minimal filler. Thinking about side story pack-ins, and assuming the DVDs of Railgun S will have a side story packed-in as well, who do you think will be the focus of the story? I'm not sure who I would want to hear more of.

The thing I don't like aside from filler in the first season is they change some scene in the manga that connects it on index series. Its like they are making a whole new story. they tried to integrate it but already failed when they change some scenes. specially the beginning scene of index anime/ln series. Though they pushed it too far when they show the date and time when the series ended. they ended it one day before sister arc starts. But look at the pv. It doesn't show any indication that they will continue there at all from the beginning. Its like they throw away that one for introductions sake but I don't really mind because Index II did it too on their first episode.

whats great about the raildex franchise is the fact that it is consider a respected series where almost no fans in railgun or index ever complain about comparing each other anime..... but sadly there are a few who do it just to start an argument and prove a point despite its a matter of personal taste. ^ well i do agree what jc staff is doing is pretty stupid sometimes but overall they still manage to make quite a huge profit despite the reasons and still make the series look great.

Sorry if it looked like I was trying to start an argument. I'm just really worked up now that Railgun S is so close to airing.

BTW, after the Kadokawa merging thing, how will it go? I mean, for a future project involving basically the same people, will we still have ASCII Media Works listed in the production committee members or will it be Kadokawa?

I'm not exactly sure what they'll do. I can see it stating "KADOKAWA" since everything will be merged into that company similar to how Kadokawa Pictures has just become "Kadokawa Shoten" on committee credits, but different portions of Kadokawa had differing labels under production committees in the past. Ascii will just be a division things are published under.
