I don't being homunculus has something to do. Don't you think other magician would have tried that if the grimoires would be more related more to homunculus rather than humans?
Afterall, the grimoires choses you. Right, Tectpatl?

Thats under your own assumption that homunculus are cheap and easy for anyone to make and use

Parts 9-11 of Chapter 2 Volume 15 now up courtesy of Bro06.

SuzushinaYuriko · 2011-02-13, 18:57

Again, they need to make a third season so I can see all of this epicness in action.

It would be hard to animate a third 24ep season, given how the huge arc is structured. Breaking it up into 2 seasons would also have it's own set of problems... So as much as I want to see all this animated, I'm sure you all can understand my wariness and concern.

Maybe releasing it as an OVA would be a better option?

How dare you doubt Capitalism! As long as there is money to be made with a possible Index S3, J.C Staff will do it. Milkkk is the besttt of elexirsss.

Iyya... I'm not doubting that they would make a third season, I'm question whether or not they can do it right.

See the thing with season 2, is that most fans can agree that the cut-off point should vol 13. Between vol 7-13, the amont of content is roughly the same as the first season so no problem there. But where's the cut off point for this [God's Right Seat Arc]? The entire content from start to end is vol14-22, that's nine volumes, so unless they made at least a 36 ep season, it's not going to fit.

Then what? Cut it into 2 seasons? Sure, but where would the mid point be? And are you sure you are willing to wait 2-3 years for the conclusion?

Well about one hour/"episode", you could get quite a bit done rather quickly depending on how often you wanted to release them.

how about like this

SS-OVAs(they arent that long actually)
3rd season-14 through 19 (six novels covered) makes sense and SS novels are OVAs
4th season(if possible)-WW3 12 eps.

easily solved.

What? It would be fine, I'd say it even works better than it would with the arcs the second season has covered since they're more interconnected.

Vol 14: 3 episodes (Eps 2-4)
Vol 15: 5 episodes (Eps 5-9)
Vol 16: 4 episodes (Eps 10-13)
Vol 17-18: 8 episodes (Eps 14-21)
Vol 19: 3 episodes (Eps 22-24)

Only change I'd make is taking one episode from vol 17-18 and giving it to vol 19, but it's not hard to set up a third season with vols 14-19, it would just end on a cliff hanger which they can subvert by announcing a movie series at the end of ep 24.

Again, are you willing to wait 2 years for the conclusion? Vol 19 leaves us at a critical moment. If it comes to I would rather the 3rd season be 12ep 14-16, and s4 be 24 ep to conclude.

Or a radical idea, s3 be from vol14-16, and the 2nd half will be original material

EDIT:

Movie

? I was hoping for an original movie for INDEX

we have no choice but to wait. Rushing it would lead to filler OVAs like shakugan no shana. We have the novels to read, It'd be worse if Railgun came between the years but hey i got many years in me

Assuming they're the equivalent of the clones from the magic side.

Wouldn't be better starting the 3rd season with the SS1?
You know, SS1, 14, 15 and 16 and including the Gemstones incident from the SS2 because its a collection of non-lineal stories.

Suzuku · 2011-02-13, 21:35

Having SS1 be an OVA would be better for everyone. I don't think any of us want to wait at minimum another two years for an Index anime project after Index II ends.

the last thing you can hope for is for jc staff to make fillers... it havent ended well 3 times already(4, if you like me add railgun, even thoug is supposed to be canon, those beach, maid, teachers fillers were more forced that in any harem series)...

Well technically a homunculus and a clone are different, even though they both are about artifically creating life.

Clone is a copy of an actualy human being.

Homunculus is to build a human from scratch using very, very weird techniques

...At least that's how I see it.

I did thought about that, but after reading SS1, I agree with Suzuku and that it's more of a OVA material because each chapter feels like a oneshot, even though the contents are important.

JC staff makes good oneshot comedy originals, I have to give them that credit. As bitter as I was to have to wait another year for my Index anime, I cannot deny that there were some very humorous filler episodes in Railgun.

zeniselv · 2011-02-13, 22:32

im a little afraid about the ovas , because some series get ovas, and then all the continuations stay as ovas.

Technically, all Index have are 'copies' and not the 'original'. Think of it as Index has the blueprint but not the real thing, or a body that has no mind/soul attached. The grimoires are harmless in her since she supposedly have no mana inside her, and so are not 'alive' to spread itself.

Urgh, that reminds me of a anology of Index being something like 'Alex Mercer' from Prototype lol...

And as a aside: I finished my parts for Vol19, if anyone's interested.

But if any magicians actually tries to read her mind, the grimoire would spread in them Like what happened with Yamisaka? Is that the general idea?

(If Index does not have any natural magic within her, what exactly is the Pen mode? Why can she use magic in that mode?)

And Alex Mercer? Hard to compute
