To tell the truth thats the main reason I miss him. It's not because I find him cool (but he is definately cooler here than in the anime or novels which is a plus) but more because of he and Mikoto make such an enjoyable couple to watch.
Yet isntead we are being fed with yuri fanservice. Some of it - nothing bad - but it gets repetative with time. It is not particularly explicit yet, but it is still getting more and more annoying. Touma is an important character in the original (heck he is the main) and Mikoto's love interest so I think he do deserve at least some of the screen-time on the railgun too. Yet the latest manga makes forget of who he is and how he looks as he is nowhere in sight for many many chapters in the row now. Not saying that Mikoto and others are not fun - they are (if you ignore yuri undertones) but Touma should be bit more reappearing character than he is in the manga, given his importance to the main plot. |

Railgun manga did not forget about him, but it can't show him since he and Mikoto won't meet until the Imouto arc. It would screw up the plot if he appeared after the "I'll be serious... but are you sure about that?" scene and before the reunion scene. After that, he will probably again become a usual sight.

Uiharu have Mind control?? What the... eh? ahhhhh!! my eyes!!!!, I can't see any more, I'll be blink foreveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrr Mikoto badass mode on Mikoto is a nice censorship... I wonder how will Mikoto to execute the railgun diving in the water. Touma appearings implies Kanzaki-nee-chin and more Itsuwa, more love for 2Ş characters. |

So Uiharu powers are related to plants. She's like Poison Ivy, only cute, younger and not a homicidal eco-terrorist. @2nd pic OH GOD!? WHAT THE HELL IS SHE WEARING. Somebody get a towel over her!! @3rd pic What is that, some kind of sea creature?

Thats what I am talking about. They are dragging Touma's appearance for the sake of some useless fanservice (though in this case it is not Yuri all that much, but is is still sloppy as hell). And the bigger gap they create between is reappearnce (he wasn't there for a more than a volume already) the more out of place his later insertion will look,

yeah, accelerator's back! (sort of) I missed that sadistic bastard.
ch 17 Pretty funny chapter, though too much yuri stuff for my tastes and obviously Mikoto's starting to - unintentionally(?)- build her own harem Kuroko's patented "special juice" anyone?

This chapter was... boring, really. Nothing really happened at all aside from some Kuroko/Mikoto that went nowhere.
Of course, I may also be colored in that I like Mikoto/Touma moments far better than Kuroko/Mikoto moments. |

Some of you people, I guess, you still don't get it.
Railgun tells the story about Mikoto NOT about Touma. If you want to read ABOUT Touma, read the Index manga or the novels. I mean, sasha (or misha) is my favorite character and i dont' bawww about the lack of appearence of her in the manga/novel/whatever thing. I know, Touma a very important character. But this manga is NOT about him. DEAL with it. |

I'm well aware, and I don't really care about the lack of Touma. I just find Touma/Mikoto interactions to be far more amusing than Kuroko/Mikoto interactions. The Kuroko/Mikoto jokes have gotten stale, and a whole chapter dedicated to one... meh.

No one is saying he should be main. So stop jumping off the gun, because you are starting to look silly. |
