I know nothing about Index or Railgun but feel obligated to get into it because I plan to play the Virtual On crossover

>>8442 You got a long journey ahead of you if you want to. Its not everyone's cup of tea but goddamn is it entertaining

>>8442 If I recall correctly that crossover is actually set a while after the current endpoint of the anime, so you'll have some reading to do. The game probably doesn't expect more from you than knowing the characters, but some of those characters basically haven't shown up in any animated material yet.

>>8442 i thought it became lost media due to licensing shit

>>8404 (OP) I love Misaka Mikoto.

>>8404 (OP) I need Othinus in my life

>>8404 (OP) R/a/ildex lives

refugee posting the best raildex girl

>>8442 You don't have to. Just play it. The crossover was so bad it killed Virtual On permanently. Thanks. Kamachi.

>>9894 That's not Misaki!

>>9956 I can't wait till Misaka dominates Misaki into submission.

>>10035 >Mikoto just causally grabbing Misaki's breast in the new volume I think they're already in a dom/sub relationship.

ded

>>10845 Its only cause r/aildex is clinging to /ghost/, but we're deader than ever there.

>>10740 She should have just raped Misaki as celebration that Touma revived

>>10845 Maybe Touma should have stayed dead for much longer, and when I say dead, I mean "we don't get to see his lame Dante's Inferno adventures and instead spend 2-3 volumes of other characters reacting and adjusting and fighting in a world without Touma to show how much he meant to these characters and how he had affected the world" kind of dead.

>>18306 Kuroko can't even emotionally support her Onee-sama during a funeral for a person whom she knows her Onee-sama loved. Sad.

What did Touma do now? Why is he dead? What's been going on since the end of NT?

>>18653 >What did Touma do now? Died but got better. >Why is he dead? Died because of Alice or some LARPING magician idgaf >What's been going on since the end of NT? Introduce heroine, and break illusions.

>>8404 (OP) Damn I forgot about ghostposting completely >>8442 The LN of it is actually really good

>>20613 Mikoto!

>>20613 >damn, already did a slutty western mourning outfit >guess I better go even sluttier to differentiate them

>>20613 Post the rest because I'm banned off Twitter.

I want to fug sluten

>>24054 you must be 30+ years old

>>24054 Saten doujins are the only Raildex thing I look forward to these days, and the ITEM manga.

>>23661 Being able to upload multiple images at once has made my life much easier for dumping GT11’s cover was going to be like GT10’s originally with Kingsford in the front and CRC in the back but Kingsford took up too much space compared to Alice.

>>20613 MIkoto looks like a 30+ y.o. yakuza

>>26706 JC Widows..

>Reboot OT from scratch >Reboot only S3 >Pretend S3 didn't happen and move to NT >Keep pretending the actual main series doesn't exist anymore It's been exactly 6 years already, are they going to wait another 4 to finally make a decision

>>26262 >but Kingsford took up too much space compared to Alice. Damn, I love big tits.

>>18306 I'm more upset there wasn't anything about Tsuchimikado being on the way. But both that and Kuroko waiting outside could technically still come up when we cut back to the funeral crowd, so some cope remains.

>>27032 It'll happen next year, one way or another. Abe actually talked about a potential anime reboot in that booklet recently but said it would be way farther into the future presumably.

>>27032 are you talking about index,railguno raccelerator? i always prayed for new seasons, i hope they don't make everything from scratch

>>8404 (OP) >Raildex >dex Is this a newfag thing?

>>26262 Thanks bro

>>27032 3 doesn't even need a reboot, they should just expand the episodes they had. They weren't even really fast so much as it looked like they were chopped down in windows movie maker. The sound effects need to go though. Absolutely stupid they didn't stick with what was used in everything before 3, for imagine breaker of all things. And they should leave Index to the Railgun team at this point. Accelerator is the one that needs a reboot.

After starting to re-read early Toaru, finishing OT, going through NT, loving Railgun anime, and feeling foreboding for the later chapters of Railgun manga, I got back into fanfiction. Not really reading, just shopping, picking out interesting works to read later, and while doing so I noticed that some fics I liked in the past were no longer around. In particular, an Accelerator x Mikoto fic that was pretty dark and, if I remember correctly, was set in a world where Touma didn't exist. Looking for it, I went looking for any mention of it, since I remember it being favored by quite a few people back then, so someone should have the title somewhere. That got me nowhere, and I started questioning my memory. So I searched for Accelerator x Mikoto in the desuarchive, which led me to read past Raildex threads. Which finally led me to the realization that I had missed the good years of Raildex. What happened, anons? Why did people leave? When I read a thread full of discussion, I can't believe my eyes. Thank you for reading my blog, I need to get that off of my chest. Wanted to post this on /ghost/, but it said the commend have too many characters...

>>33579 There were brief good periods. I'm not sure if you're referring to 2017 raildex or 2000s to early 2010s raildex, but I'll answer for 2017 People left cause Index 3 was pretty bad, and cause Yurikoschizo singlehandedly killed r/a/ildex through relentless samefagging and doomfagging. It really did seem like the board turned against Index until Yurikoschizo was outed and all the Index hate from 2020s to 2023 was just manufactured by a single guy, but the damage had been done.

>>33579 Fanfiction feels like it aged out of internet culture over the last decade, and became more niche than it already was

ok raildex fans here is my short fan fiction: touma is meeting with oriana to receive a package from the anglican church. for some reason she tells him to meet her at the beach. when he gets there he is surprised to see her wearing an ordinary swimsuit instead of something obscene. then she tells him that he has to rub lotion on her before she will give him the package. he agrees, but as soon as his right hand touches her imaginebreaker.wav plays and her swimsuit disappears. it turns out that she was naked the whole time and using a spell to make it look like she was wearing a swimsuit. then index appears out of nowhere and bites his head. the end.

>>35035 It's 2016-2017 threads, yeah. It's pretty depressing to read that so many people were really looking forward to Index III after believing for so long that it would never happen. >Yurikomenhera Was that the person who kept insisting that Accel was a girl? So it's just one person...when I read the threads, I thought Raildex actually thought that in the past. >>35491 Not really, with normal fags getting into fandoms because of the pandemic, there is a lot of new blood. Like, I also thought that new fics might not be as good as old ones, but then I read some new ones, and while the majority of them suck (as always), there are still gems. The fact that many seem to be heavily influenced by fanfics in the way they write hurts a bit, still. >>35952 Good plot.

>>35981 >menhera Huh? Is there a filter? menhera >menhera Ymenhera

>>35996 Oh...

>>35999 The filter is fucking gold kek

Raildexmenheras...

bruh...

Like IDs, only the menheras are going to be mad about word filters.

https://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index.php?title=Toaru_Majutsu_no_Index:GT_Volume12_Chapter3 I think the volume will be done before 4chan gets fixed

>>41884 >Part 1 Touma is a huge faggot

>>41884 This is technically the first time Stiyl is using his new laminated cards against Touma, isn't it? He probably felt so smug setting that up in the same location and during the rain, and then there's Touma lacking the memories to even understand why that's a flex. The sudden Touya scene followed by him not picking up the phone feels a bit like the parents might be getting into something dangerous offscreen.

>>26706 >>41884 >Still in the black kimono that looked terribly out of place on a 14-year-old, Misaka Mikoto crossed her arms and looked up at the ceiling. When she got annoyed like this, she looked more like a yakuza boss’s wife than a funeral attendee. kek

So, why do the fusion meme die? It's pretty interesting, especially for Index+Othinus. I don't understand MisaMisa beyond Misaki helping Mikoto stay sane while she progresses to level 6. The outcome of this thing is more likely to make Misaki a LV 6 herself than the two becoming one.

>>43753 They fell out of style because they were never serious ideas to begin with. Index and Othinus popped in NT12 entirely because it was the first volume we actually got to see what fairy Othinus would add the dynamic. MisaMisa fusing was never prominent though arguably closer to be real because of the AAA mind link.

>The two extraordinary beings nestled up against Stiyl Magnus from either side, but something wasn’t right. Why is Stiyl obsessed with that human garbage disposal when he has at least five other options

>>41884 4chan is days, if not weeks away from coming back, that's expected.

>What had happened to his body was so absurd none of his ordinary senses could make sense of it. >But the most frightening part wasn’t the impact itself. >Unlike 15cm Othinus, Alice Anotherbible still had her unique power, yet she hadn’t noticed it while right by his side. >Alice could not suppress the shaking of her body, but she was still biting her lip to keep from screaming. >On her own, she could survive anything. >Then what was she so afraid of? >The answer was obvious. >Alice Anotherbible was terrified of the possibility of losing Kamijou Touma again. I can see why the nips are thinking Alice is weaker.

>>44315 Magic Gods really just are the full package, top tier powerlevel plus knowledge plus near unlimited experience on how to use it all. Pretty much would take a miracle to beat one, which is why a miracle spammer like Alice, and by extension the Transcendents, "can" do it. But looking at it the other way, Magic Gods beating anyone else is simply the normal way of things, so more likely than not they still win in that matchup.

Accel using lightning is an insult to Mikoto. All those times she has been treated as useless or it being too dangerous for her to help and he goes in using her attack. It's not even likes its stronger it is the same billion volts shit.

Just realized I'd been following this story for 13 or 14 years. I'm still hoping for Mikoto to win everything.

>“I have zero intention of grieving over you. It just made a convenient excuse for an outsider like me to pass through the front gate and enter the city. The other team appears to be having trouble, but I’m sure they’re right there outside the wall.” Kanzaki out here jobbing to border patrol. She just can't catch a break.

KAKINE IS GONNA RETURN SOON. TRUE NUMBER ONE TRUE NUMBER ONE

>check /ghost/ >soy thread top >I was obsessed with a light novel series called toaru majusto no index when I was younger. The /a/ general was cancerous though. I created a bunch of shitpost soyjaks to fuck with some of the posters and started making fun of the stupider shit they do, like crying over onee-sama being translated into sissy. >I still love this type of humor making fun of people who take shit that isn't serious way too toxically serious. Sharty is kinda funny to me but too much gore and irreverence. I love the sillier side of the sharty though ever.

I'm just getting into this and it seems pretty fun, I have a question about the worldbuilding though, maybe it gets answered later on but I'm curious now. Do they ever address how Anti-Skill is able to exist within the framework of Japan's limited army restrictions or is that just brushed over entirely? Yes I know this is an extremely minor detail considering all the other leaps in logic but I'm curious.

>3 Index seasons >3 Railgun seasons >1 Accelerator season >1 Index movie >all the OVAs Weird how I watched all of it, yet feel like it was all a waste of time. Index 1 was okay. Index 2 and 3 were hot garbage. The movie is meh. All the Railgun seasons are alright and equally about the same, quality wise. Didn't take a nosedive like the Index seasons did. Honestly, Mikoto should have been the series MC and not Touma. Far better protag. Accelerator was edgy schlock but okay.

>>63451 What's so bad about the later Index stuff?

>>63459 First few eps of Index 2 were fine. Then the series went to shit when they started globetrotting. The moment they set foot in Italy is when story tried being grandiose and convoluted. Honestly the series should have stayed in Academy City like the Railgun seasons did. Index 3 is just infamously terrible. Everybody hates it.

>>8404 (OP) I started catching up to this the other day. I fell off during the whole Kamisato stuff. Feels weird knowing I dropped it like a volume before Aleister actually started doing stuff.

>>63721 Kamisato is worth your time! What will really make you fall off is the literal whos after Aleister starts doing stuff. I never recovered.

>>63443 >I'm just getting into this and it seems pretty fun, Turn back before it is too late. This franchise is the definition of overmilking and the author is mentally gone with the plot.

Just read OT and maybe NT, NEVER pick up GT. Read Railgun manga, watch ALL Railgun seasons. You may skip some S1 episodes.

>>63729 Also, enjoy the side stories at your leisure.

>>9894 i want to impregnate Oriana so badly

Still catching up, but >Hamazura: I want protection >Aleister: Okay >dies >Hamazura: I want protection >Accel: Fuck you, but okay >Accel: I call it... Operation Handcuffs

Why do the Sisters have so little screen time? I love them so much. Why don't they have a spin-off? I remember there was an idol manga, I would love a 4-koma of whatever the Sisters were doing all over the world.

>>65525 Bro, they're competing with like two dozen other girls for screen time. They're lucky to have any screen time. Though a 4-koma of random Sisters does sound kind of funny.

>>65764 > 9,973 sisters in total. worldwide > 13 stayed in Academy City Imagine some of them working in mcdonalds or something

>>65764 >two dozen other girls Who? >magic side I honestly don't remember any of them.

>check booru >over 11 years ago >over 13 years ago What can I do to make this fandom lively again?
