And one that will never be solved....

Well, if anyone's asking, Miss 'Fighting Fanservice' is said to have the biggest in this series (no official sources, of course), trumping the likes of Kaori and Hyouka.

Kuroko's now trying to copy Wolverine.

I wonder if the novel author would be bothered to release a data book about characters in series, and include their biodata including actual age, height, and... of course, the freakin' I-don't-know-why-they-should-be-that-detailed Three Sizes.

(I can't help but assume in this aspect, Toaru Majutsu no Index no Subete does not count though.)

Only then what assumptions that has been gathered so far can be contested.

[Patriot's Blade]

because of Seiri's VA & Index fantasizing about eating squids, where's the Ika Musume jokes for this ep?

oh and also Mikoto's mom is hot. I wonder how touma would have have acted around her if he met her.

Well, they do take some of the relationships into consideration, I'm having a feeling they will have a major Mikoto and Touma episode somewhere along this season, just a feeling though. But that bet they made about who would win the schools match, Mikoto might actually remind Touma about it, and Touma might pick something silly... Of course this is just a guess.

[Kakkou]

Oriana Thompson is hot and by hot I mean daaaamn she's hot. Touma, you've got great taste there. Oh right, the episode. It was interesting. Lots of amusing moments and character interactions this time. I swear I had more to say about the episode that didn't involve Oriana's nice body and sexy style but nothing's coming to mind right now.

Maybe it's because nuns aren't expected to give fanservice? When was the last time you saw a nun in a microskirt and platform shoes?

[LEPF]

Oriana = Boobies!
She dressed like it was an extremely hot day.
I think this is gonna be an exciting arc! never read the novel so i wun noe

Since this is a japanesse series, some examples for you:
- Chrono Crusade, Sora no Otoshimono, Kannagi, Seikon no Qwaser, Guilty Gear, etc.
Its Japan, a non christian country and for the people there, nuns are the same as shinto mikos.

[Hell_ping]

And for the record, the platform shoes are 30cm thick.

Nope. She changed it from a regular hairclip to a flower (doesn't show her changing it).

I think she changed it so she'd look more girly in front of Touma.

One thing I do think that JC Staff improved on was Seiri's appearance, in the light novels she looked more like Saten, while the anime gave her a slightly more mature appearance which seems to fit her character better.

She didn't in S1 or in Railgun. She has since ep6 of S2, though.

mm not really her eyebrows are even more distinctive in the ligth novels, also her chest is more notieceable since in the LN characters seem more skinny and DFC.

[HandofFate]

at the part when Touma steps on the water hose and drenches that girl.

Was it that she didn't notice her bra was showing or was it ignoring that it happened?

[tsunade666]

Nope, she's so angry that she would explode but she just ignore it and drink the milk? or what

Getting angry with Touma wouldn't help the current problem with the other classmates lacking energy to do things.

EDIT:

Spoiler for Novel content comparison:

Looking far away, a male teacher working in the school suspiciously looks at the water hose that doesn’t spray water.
In this instant,
The water that’s suppressed by Kamijou’s foot blast out, as the hose that’s attached to the faucet and supposed to spray water, is loose, splashing water nearby.
The one closest to the faucet is……
“Fu…Fukiyose!? Kamijou, you bastard, how dare you do this to our final stronghold!!”
“Oh no, with Kamijou around, even that tigress is all wet now.”
“And unexpectedly, we get to see her colourful underwear. Don’t tell me this is the start of a love comedy……”
“This is the despair of humanity—if Fukiyose can’t survive, then who will?”
(In your eyes, what kind of scum am I!? Also, sorry, Fukiyose-san!)
Kamijou repeatedly does his angry and apologetic mannerisms.
On a side note, Fukiyose is all wet with her sports attire clinging tightly onto her, her skin and even her underwear can be seen clearly. She’s unexpectedly wearing underwear that is completely different from her image, the yellow and orange chequered design looks really cute.
“……Do you have any dissatisfaction?”
(No, I don’t dare to!!)
Kamijou quickly lowers his head and apologises. Fukiyose gave a ‘humph,’ turns her head, pulls the zip of her jacket open and pulls out a small packet of milk before drinking it. She probably wants the calcium to pacify her own anger.
The boys nearby cover the mouth of the faucet with their thumbs, and start playing with the columns of water that’s shooting out like a laser cannon. In truth, they’re tired now. But they seem to be aware of Fukiyose being wet throughout and want to display the spirit of a gentleman, so they pretended that ‘they didn’t notice her.’ They look innocent, but their eyes aren’t smiling as they continue to play this water spraying game in despair.
Kamijou blankly looks at his classmates that completely lack unity and thought,
(Nobody’s worrying about the Wrench Stick match!? We’re doomed! To many extents, this class really has a lot of problems.)

She's holding back her anger.

[Aqua Knight]

Awesome episode.
If it wasn't , I would get out of my bed to write this.

Fukiyose is so cute during the end, I still wish she acted a bit calmer though.
