Great action once again. I didn't expect Mugina to be a level 5, the fourth strongest at that (right behind Mikoto). The tired Mikoto is in quite a pinch. Looking forward to next week's episode. Fights between level 5s are always exciting.

ITEM = amazing... Especially the teamwork to force Mikoto into a position where she couldn't dodge the beam. I also loved how the team thinks Mugino is acting uncharacteristically nice, but then she reveals her main motivation is a 1v1 with Railgun.
How I know this episode was done well: I couldn't even tell that anything was anime-original (I haven't read this part of the manga since I marathon-ed it at the end of Railgun Season 1). So whatever it was flows pretty naturally. |

Shame that Shinobu failed... Wonder if this is the last time we'll see her as Saiai implied that Shinobu would most likely be killed or have everything taken away from her but her life.
As for the fighting, Mikasa really was like a spider. Was awesome seeing her doing all those crazy tricks in this episode. Saiai also loves saying Super- a lot. |

Yes, it was used to make Mikoto Misaka into Spiderwoman!
I have a feeling we'll get a short cooldown after this Arc before Sisters Arc picks back up. Can't wait to see how Touma will look when he first appears officially in Season 2 of Railgun! |

Thank you very much I guess it was also a different situation because the events of the manga affect the LN's while this is just an adaptation and not really that original at that. It makes sense to me now, thanks. |

Seeing as how dark the dark side can get I wonder what will become of Shinobu.
Will they dissect her and sell her organs? Will they use her as a slave scientist under threat of death? Will they keep her in solitary confinement for the rest of her life? |

I don't remember enjoying any of the To Aru series this much. It usually comes across as if I'm watching filler, overbearing (Touma) and/or annoying (Touma, constantly and the onee-sama girl at times). Railgun was merely a sideshow from the way it prescribed itself in first series as far as I was concerned.
So this focused approach to enter a specific deliberation is very surprising and I'm enjoying it so much. Even the action in the last two episodes resonate with that intense focus. I've always suspected that Misaka is a wasted character, and her exposition thus far in this shows how good her story is. I screamed, "nooooo" at the abrupt end to this episode. That's how quickly the time went. Two level 5 duking it out is already an awesome thing. And when one of the 2 has a purpose behind a desperate endurance, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy.... *rubs hands together* As far as I'm concerned, this season of Railgun beats out everything thus far in the To Aru franchise in terms of storytelling and the emotion injected into it along with projecting it back to the audience. Episode 6 set it up beautifully! And now the show reaping the fruit of great storytelling.

She's too smart and too useful to too many projects, so it's probably just some mental changes. Though we don't know if she has friends in high places or not. She might come out relatively fine. Plus, we're still assuming she isn't an Esper. We really don't know. She could have a limited trick up her sleeve to get away.

9/10 episode Again a really good episode, there was a lot of padding in this episode but I feel as though (aside from the beginning, which was pretty slow) it benefited the episode more than it hurt it. |

Indeed. It's wonderful.

More than anything though, I just can't wrap my head around Frenda. Every time she's on screen I can't help but think: "She's so stylish..."

Finally had time to watch the episode and just wow. That was so well done. Mugino was just perfect. I have waited so long to see her animated and that was just so well done. The fight was animated so perfectly as well, it was gorgeous.
My only minor gripe is that Takitsubo used pills instead of a powder. It just doesn't have the same "drug-addict" look to it. Hopefully Index III does it properly. Overall 10/10 and I can't wait for the next one.
