Story started with a Very Misfortune Boy, with a Very Mysterious Power in his right Hand, which tend to get himself into troubles that can both get himself wound, and the incidents got Girls included.

Yes, It's Kamijou Touma, whom I talking about, and he's one of those who not afraid to punch or hit a girl, in order to correct their ways of thinking.

With the right hand that can negates any powers that is Magical, Psychic and even Divine Power, which explained why he always the unlucky guys.

Not going to go into the long talking which tend to get me to the Land of Nowhere, but what I going to is just some simple little peeking around of this Anime, since this Anime is best to let you go take a peek by reading or watching, than having me telling an old man's tale.

Yup, this is one of my favorite tales which I don't mind taking a few peek in the Manga or Anime a few times, and the one which I been translating for my family for the past few days.

My dad like the fighting, thought I find the Creator very daring in having Touma going "punching" the face of those beauty.

But I do find it funny that some of the girls later on having some affection for him instead. And so far there are some who he never hit, can still give their affection for him, due to his kind nature of helping them, like Index and Misaka.

Speaking of Misaka, I had the hell out of mine when I had to copy the way of Misaka's clone sister speech, which did gave me the problem; "Misaka say, as Misaka press on for answer" Etc. And the speech almost slipped out when I went out to get some stuffs. (=x= |")

Please don't go imagining what I said, or how I say in a girly ways, it would gross you out, because I'm a GUY!!

Nope, I don't look like a girl in anyway or form, so let continue with is little peeking of this story.

Interestingly, this story is one of those longest plot for the Light Novels, ending with 22 Volumes, and yet it still continue on with even more plot.

I got my hand full on Akikan and Kampfer, so I peeked on the Anime and Manga instead. But even so, Wiki is the best site for some info peeking, so the less is that I know where the story headed, somewhere in between, or something like that.

Unlike the story plot in Bleach, which I follow just for the story only, and honestly, I got tired of Bleach, and I not the only one down here. But even so, I liked the story in the previous plot.

To aru Majutsu Index got a running gag of having Touma getting into some big problem, fighting someone, which involve a girl or many girls, big climax, final boss fight, and then Touma would go around giving "lectures" to correct the way of the villain's thinking, den give a punch with his right hand, after that he would end up on the hospital.

But despite the same point where Bleach go about, what made Toaru Majustu Index unique is the plot on the before and after the battle. And I really like the joke and gag down in this story as they go by the borderline base in their world, in which Bleach only go one ways, despite the joke and gag, which tend to drag thing for very long, instead of being simple and short.


My dad used to like Naruto, until recently, when he said that the battle war is dragging for very long, and is losing it main core of the fight.

There are many fighting in this story, but what made me happy peeking into this, is that the fighting don't drag for too long.

One piece is another reason why my family follow full hearted, since the fighting is spread around to each characters nicely. Best not to concentrate on one character for too long. The recent Naruto chapter just gave me the "Sigh, about time" face.

Also, the credits must go to the one who made the music for the Anime series, who so happened to be only one person; Maiko Iuchi.


Yup, I really like the music, especially those in the opening part, and "Only my Railgun" is one of my top Favor in my music list.


And if I never peek into the world of Dragon Balls, I would wonder just how many times can Touma die, though it still good that the Light Novel continued, since having him "MIA" in the ending is sometime which not what considered a happy ending.


But even so, I really like how the part on having memories, and act as if he didn't have it, is really what made it worth. And the Head Biting never failed to amazed me on how powerful and sharp Index's Fang is. Though I wonder why she never used it as her own weapons though.


Also, there some new about an Anime Film which is set flight next year February, which made me wonder what they going to showcase down that.

Even so, I do prefer them having the season 3 coming out and showing the rest of the first Light Novel.

Yup, I did a little peeking into the Light Novels, in which all 3 (Light Novels, Manga and Anime) showed a different point of story, though ultimately the story plot is around the same.

Even the Spin off, "A Certain Scientific Railgun" did point a few parts of similarity like the battle of Touma and Accelerator, in the point Misaka's Clone arc. But despite that, I find Touma got many girls' affection but the funny part is "First 2"; Index and Misaka.


One head bite and One lightning Stike, not worth my live to be given like that. Yet all that, do you still want to take a (re-)peek into the Magical and Scientific World of Toaru Majutsu no Index and Toaru Kagaku no Railgun?
