Well, Marcus, I hope that rectifies it, I am kinda puzzled you didn't (in a comedic way)
Oh. I think I owe the brilliant minds behind the POTC and Elder Scrolls soundtracks an apology.

Anyway, there actually is a Music Discussion thread, but I think this conversation has fallen a bit far from even that topic, so perhaps we should just let it go for now.

Some translations of that from js06.

The second season tells the story told in Volume 3 of the Index novels, aka the Sisters arc. The story is directly based on the spin off comic Railgun. Unlike the first season that told the story of all four of them, the Sisters arc is centered on an incident related to Mikoto herself and provides a close up of her personal problems. Until now, Mikoto has been resolving incidents that involve those around her, but how will she deal with these "sparks" that are falling directly on her. Season 2 will show a side of Railgun that has not been seen before.

I'd say pathetic fits what Accelerator was during the Level 6 Shift.

He was pathetic even after the Level 6 shift; whenever he's not working he's one big ball of emo. The reason why we don't notice it is because Kamachi usually put him to work doing crazy shit.

He's the only guy that needed to be punched twice- No, four times by everyone.

I think that way of expresing how he thinks of Accelerator is harsh, I mean even if he was that would make Mikoto fall below that because despite being the MC of the story all she did action aside was pointlessly trying to stop the project alone, went emo, then crazy and finally suicidal even if that achieved nothing.

I think "pathetic" is an understandable description of Accelerator.
I mean, he's the most powerful Level 5 and he decided to gain moar power so that "no one will disturb him anymore". IIRC, he decided to join the Level 6 Shift for that purpose, but at the same time, he participated to the experiments with the intent of injecting fear into the hearts of the Sisters. 9968 attempts later, he still fails.

That's why he is weak when playing with words about his determination during his fight against Touma's strong will.

^ That aside, for Nagai to call Accelerator "pathetic" is a strong choice of words.

The original word would most probably be 'Nasakenai', which means miserable, pitiable, shameful, whichever one applies.

Sigh, once again guys you have to try to remember that this is a translation and that Japanese and English aren't the same thing.

It's hard, but do your best!

Pitiable/miserable is more fit.

I know how difficult it is. Don't remind me.

Definitions of 'pathetic' in English encompass that y'know...

I have a feeling this will make many anime-only viewers hate Accelerator even more since we'll actually see his horrible acts more closely and how badly they hurt and effect Mikoto who's only trying to stop the killings.

They better have a friendship moment, with all of Mikoto's friends, after the sisters arc with Mikoto figuring out that she shouldn't be afraid to rely on her friends just like they rely on her.

Also, give us more Touma in Railgun!

I don't know, for a long time it seems that Accelerator fans have been making light of his past sins but now with Railgun II this would serve as a reminder- At the same time when Index III comes out it would help justify all the self-hatred that we'll be seeing from him.

Not to mention should they include his monologue, it would definitely shed much needed light on what goes on in his head.
