Well it's not really a fair comparison, I mean there have only been 4 NT books while there has been 50ish chapters of the railgun manga.

Volume 4 of the NT is one of the best series in my opinion.

Yes but to me the quality had severely dropped compare to the original. I did like NT4 though. NT2 comes in second.

Also, I liked the ch. that just came out but it's kinda ridiculous how it's only 20 pages for a monthly manga.

Lol no silly, Railgun manga is not better than New Testament.

Not in terms of scale, not in terms of setting, not in terms of content, not in terms of characters, not in terms of anything.

Railgun is, and always will be, a single dimension in this multi-dimensional story- Just one piece of a pie that you can touch... Even if it's sugar-coated.

Yeah Phib is all good.............despite our taste that greatly contrast!

But anyways I wonder who that chick is, .......the worst possible answer would be that she's a Kihara!!(worst as in a scary sense)

1.Fine
2.Academy City is an interesting setting compared to the icy lands of Russia.
3.Science! But debatable.
4.Eh, I like The Queen way more than other characters. And Kongo is very likeable compared to her anime counterpart. Even her lackeys are likeable. Don't get me wrong I like Touma but him and some of the characters in Index don't have that much character to them.

Besides NT4 I have found the other NT's to be boring, have mediocre writing, and maybe a bit too much shipping.

Dude, you sound like this is your first time; New Testament covers Academy City, Hawaii, and a random snowy European city. New Testament have BOTH Darkness Science and Magic, this is not debatable at all, it's a slam dunk. New Testament have all three protagonists, Birdway, MORE Kiharas, Misaka Worst, Marian, and even the President of the United States of America as a playboy Rider.

If you think TWO city-wide military coup and various cyborg/mecha attacks are boring then by all means please tell me what is considered exciting to you.

Plus the main events are still on building up, the main dish has yet to come.

Just for those two things, I think it's pretty interesting to read. And do not forget the Gremlin, which was an organization with a lot of potential.

Ahem... really?

About the chapter:
- Poor Tokiwadai's girls don't know about dark side shit. They're no Touma so no way they'll redeem Baba, lol.
- Mikotos is naive is usual, nothing new here when it comes to dark side.
- Baba fails because by future canon he can't win. Wel... now he will be sheltered for sure .
- Betting the girl on the last page is a Kihara.

I initially stopped reading when some of you started bringing up the "Railgun > Index" issue all over again, it was annoying. I wouldn't be surprised if you purposefully did have the intention to annoy.

Talking about the most recent chapter, good Wannai/Awatsuki team dynamics, and I'm glad to see them able to hold their own when they're alone. And Mikoto coming to Baba's doom was the most amusing part of the chapter. I'm still curious about the twin-tails with a horsewhip, though I won't be hoping so much that she too gets a comeuppance.
