Index's manga only started looking good since chapter 35.

Chapter 103 is Kihara Amata, Part 2. It covers the first fight between Accelerator and Amata right up until Index intrudes onto the scene.

Chapter 104 will probably cover the rest of the OT12 with Volume 17 releasing in May. Then finally, OT13!

No watch as they end in after the SS arc just to in rage the people who want Index III more but I think it would be a good idea to end it there and then make a sequel manga which a God Right Seat sub title because I don't know many monthly manga which have over 100 chapter, specially Index which could go for another 100-150 chapter before it get to the end of WWIII arc which is huge for a monthly mange series.

Lol why not make it weekly or bi-weekly at that point so it can go on longer.

Meh. As long as they keep the same artist I don't mind if they just end it and start up a sequel immediately. Though I honestly find such a thing unnecessary.

I don't expect it to stop. It's just getting good. As long as it's doing well, there's no reason for it to stop being written.

i'm also inclined to believe the manga won't be canceled since for the most part; the index anime mainly exists to bolster the sales of the novels(and by extension the manga) I doubt J.C. ever had the intention of finishing the Index series(i'd think they were crazy if they think they could).

yeah as long as the novels and manga sell well, index 3 ain't happening and it would be backwards marketing to cancel the manga just so the anime can be made when the manga is a greater primary source of income than the anime ever was, but i'd be hella pi$$ed if they did cancel it anyway. besides; I doubt the index series needs another spin off manga, even if it's a reintroduction of an old serialisation.

Although the placeholder name DragonXX gave the manga implies an interesting premise; as a standalone manga dedicated to Toumas perspective of Post 9/30(fighting gods right seat) set along side a similar stand alone manga for Hamazuras dealings post 9/30(getting chased by a yandere) with different artists being given a different protagonist (poor Hamazura would need index 3 for his proverbial manga to start selling, which could be the excuse for index 3 to actually start happening).

Chapter 74 is up.

Man, Touma and his dad have it rough around other women, one is at risk of getting stabbed by his wife and the other is at risk of getting shocked by Mikoto.

Mikoto's mom is best wingman/troll.

The paralels between Shiina and Index were interesting.

Sigh, makes me wish the main series would give Index a change of costume, or is Kamachi that much of a nun fetishist?

[OH&S]

Chapter 104 is Intruder. As expected, it covers the rest of OT12 and the rest of Index II Episode 19 with Last Order running into Kamijou again and Vento declaring war against Aleister and Academy City.

5 more Index II episodes left to adapt into manga. Though it'll probably take a year to do to just finish OT13 (Episodes 20 - 23 (first few minutes)).

Toaru Majutsu no Index Volume 17 being released on May 21, 2016.

Yen Press' A Certain Magical Index Manga Volume 5 releases on April 19, 2016.

[Chaos2Frozen]

I thought it's amusing that there's a real possibility that the Manga would have caught up with the end of the second season before we see a third lol

Sorry; dynamic content not loaded. Reload?

Chapter 105 is titled Intruder, Part 2. It begins OT13/Index II Episode 20.

Accelerator quick hijacks one of the Hound Dog vans, grabs Index and escapes. Kihara Amata begins to attack them with a rocket launcher but is stopped by Vento.

Kamijou goes back to the place where Accelerator was attacked to find him gon (and Vento). He sees Hound Dog cleaning the area with Acid Spray. Hound Dog begins their pursuit of him and Last Order.

Accelerator drops Index off and plans his counterattack against Hound Dog.

Will they stop the release, or continue to surpass the Anime ?
Estimated ?

It's really unclear... I hope they go into season 3 stuff because honestly people would buy it probably more than before since it's actually new stuff (or at least stuff that hasn't been seen visually before) which really has some nice appeal from that standpoint.
