Yeah, that's their name/label in the design drawings, literal translation to the best of my Mandarin abilities.

These are the comments from Railgun's editor.
- No plans on doing Railgun third season unless Index III comes first.
- Touma won't appear on Dream Ranker arc.
- Gunha appearing on Daihasedai wasnt in Kamachi's script.
- Shadow Metal was Fuyukawa's idea, as such there is no hint or link with anything in the series.
- Editor wants Kiyama to appear but Fuyukawa refuses.
- Editor denied Misaki, Dolly and Mitori appearing again in the manga.
- Gunha won't appear on Railgun manga again.
- Accelerator was unable to appear in this arc but isn't said why.
- Xochitl won't appear again.
- Komoe knows Misaki very well.
- The dragons are real and not illusions.
- Dream Ranker will have cameos like Xochitl and Gunha did on Daihasesai.


That's all.

-Railgun III anime coming after Index III doesn't surprise me
-Even though Touma isn't appearing directly, I hope we get to see Misaka's dream about what she wants Touma to do for penalty game.
-Shadow Metal having no connection to anything at this point is slightly disappointing
-Gunha, Misaki, and Dolly not appearing again makes me sad. Xochitl not appearing again makes sense at this point considering her role in Index.
-Mitori not appearing again doesn't surprise me, since it has been like that for the past arcs.
-A tease for a future Accelerator manga arc.
-Komoe knowing Misaki reinforces the fact that she knew Touma pre-memory loss. It also makes me more curious to learn about her past

Hehe, would be a cool arc if we see accel for 14 or so chapters in his vegetable mode

maybe he will do it like in vol.12/13, fighting against a trained adult and even injuring him badly >_>

it is odd, im sure amata could defeat touma, afterall one is a adult and the other one is a 16 years old teenager, accel lost too but he was holding himself much longer than someone with a glass-body should be able to do.... a plothole?

The power of loveli trumps plotholes!

And also, it's nice to hear that Misaki knows Komoe very well. That's not as ambiguous as I thought it was.

And darn... I originally thought ??? was like the ??? family from Dragon Quest.

It was because Amata was still using his pull-back reflection countering fighting style on Accelerator after his choker died. He was pulling back at the last second reducing the damage each blow dealt.

[Chaos2Frozen]

Are you forgetting that Accelerator was the only one that took more punches from Kamijou than any other Villain before going down? He's surprisingly durable even then.

[ACertainStark]

can we get a manga with Accelerator just being Touma's punching bag?

A single panel panel of them doing a 3-way brofist with Gunha would be awesome. that panel would have enough power to rival a 3-way clash of Chuck Norris roundhouse kick vs Spinzaku's kick vs Captain Facon's punch and explode the multiverse.

I would like the the other way since it is much more logical

but trung is right, btw, who is the third fist? shiage?

like i said before, I'm sure Touma has more experience and skill than a scientist that couldnt even take down a cripple

he was mainly throwing jabs rather than his usual KO punch

[dniv]

Well, it's good that nothing was said about ITEM not appearing again. And hopefully Shiage might appear as well...

Guts-boy Gunha, of course!

He actually threw several mach punches during their first encounter.

There's a misconception here, Accelerator has weak durability (at least he used to) but he is very resilient to damage. He once took bullet damage in the head and still stood back up like a man (or at least, he tried).
