[Ilidsor]

Damn I was really hoping for Liberal Arts City. Guess I'll have to make do with more meaningless fanservice...

I just really hope they don't touch Shinobu.

I have no idea where where Stiyl and LO appear, and have don't know where Index appears in another panel.

- Index appears going to Touma's room right after Mikoto leaves.
- Stiyl appears on the city walking around, according to the timeline he should be searching for Index along with Kanzaki.
- Harue appears on a photo with the other girls.
- Shiage appears back to back with Rikou on one of the chapters when Item fights Mikoto.

Here's to hoping.

The question is what kind of resolution can they give her. She could be randomly be released from whatever captivity Academy City placed her in, but with the sister's saved, Shinobu has no reason to fight anymore, unlike Kiyama who still had helping the child errors as her goal.
Are the girls going to find Shinobu and bust her out? Ignoring the fact that Mikoto kept the Level 6 Shift project struggle secret, and the fact that they would be performing criminal actions, the only resolution that would await Shinobu would be a life of being a fugitive. Academy City would lets someone who knows as much as she does about their Technology wander free outside Academy City, and inside Academy City they would just confine her again.
I just don't see anything added to Shinobu fate that would change anything or provide any resolution beyond the fact that she lost all freedom.
This is assuming she is still alive.

Index appears too with Himegami, Touma and 10032 in front of Touma's room.

Yes, chapter 32

This is disappointing but not unexpected. Oh well, if it's bad I'll just have to grind through it. I got Monogatari during the summer season so I'll be alright.

If the one-shot character is Amai, why complain? It would be nice to get more background on that arc... He was a one-shot character... Plus, an anime original arc doesn't have to be the rest of the season... plus they specifically said enjoy the summer outfits... this means they probably have LA city as well. Summer=beach= LA city... plus they already mentioned it... They'll have BOTH

Stage 1= Denial

Once I see it...

Stage 2= Acceptance

I'm still at the Denial

Daniel >> Denial (that's just me).

It isn't a "one-shot" by appearing only in a chapter is by appearing in a single panel AFAK.

Oh... what does it mean in this case by one-shot? I would appreciate the explanation... and AFAK???

IS AFAK away from AK???

Taken from Episode 12...

Erm yeah... About that...

Lol. Watch Index 2. It's most likely not going to be in railgun.

So what if they're white? Realize that till this day we have no actual prove that it was anything but a cosmetic change.

I do wonder why Misaki was introduced this early and even have a spot in the OP as the season won't cover her arc as the manga isn't finished with it yet.

Then it occurs to me. What aspect of Misaki is currently a mystery?

Spoiler:

She knew Touma before he met Index and lost his memory. And she trusts him despite being unable to read his mind.

My guess is a flashback arc about when they first met.

[Rising Dragon]

Except it's already been confirmed that Misaki won't be appearing again in the season, so I doubt it.

you might get oav of that but not until the current railgun manga arc is over and until it is covered in the LN.

Does the gap between the end of the Sisters Arc and the onset of whatever happens next in the Railgun manga include the time in which

Spoiler for Index:

Index went through the Angel Fall arc?

If any of these original episodes are to be set during that event, I wonder if they would have the characters' appearances switched with those of others, but this time with no-one noticing until they "suddenly" all went back to normal (at that arc's conclusion)...

Yep but I doubt they would do that as Railgun has so far avoided explaining magic.
