Hachiko's To Aru Kagaku no Railgun Tv Review
Rated:
To Aru Kagaku No Railgun is best-watched with the main story itself, To Aru Majutsu no Index. But it can be watched on its own. What’s the secret? It's how you adapt the plot. Whether it's a side story or the feature, if you stick to how the plot goes without compromising anything, you are witnessing something special. And that’s what you get with Railgun.
I declare To Aru Kagaku no Railgun as the best spin-off since the Nanoha franchise. It's got an expert cast, a nice OP and ED, and visual theatrics to boot. If only a certain nun from England were viewing this from afar…
A must-watch. Recommended. And yes, Index Librorum Prohibitorum...we miss you.

Great character design and crisp animation, though the plot is a bit less interesting that the main story's. The flow of the story is not too fast, that makes it easy to follow. On the other hand, it gets a bit too slow at times. I have to admit, though, the concept is excellent.
pdrawman rated 9.50:Saten Ruiko: I Love You! If Index was an adrenaline pill, To Aru Kagaku no Railgun is amplified as x4. With more breathtaking situations and lifestyles, all 24 episodes take us through the life of four close friends who are faced with innumerable adventures and exploits in Academic City: Misaka Mikoto, Kuroko Shirai, and Staten Kazari Ruiko Uiharu. If you watched Index should see Railgun
ray-slifer rated 9.00:Lovely animation designs, plot maybe a bit too much but character personalities are exquisite. Though I haven't finished watching it yet, but hopefully I will be hooked more to it.
My favourite characters are Mikoto Misaka, Kuroko Shirai and Harumi Kayama (I think that's her last name).
Anyways, it's a great anime. Too-great-to-be-hooked anime actually. XD
MisaSasekage rated 9.00:Railgun is a nice side story. Misaka's ability is awesome; she is my favorite female character from Railgun, though she is very hot tempered. Kuroko is hilarious; the girl is just a very funny character to watch!! Watching her bang her head on a table just because Misaka was off talking to a group of guys, fasely flirting to get necessary info out of them and to get them to drop their guard totally had me laughing like crazy. Also a lot of Kuroko's weird attempts to seduce Misaka, along with all her little crazy schemes were funny in a way, though obsessive. I always thought Hiyama looked and acted suspiciously, so from seeing her I kinda figured she'd be a villain, though it was nice to see that she grew to care for her students over some time and really did all all that because she wanted to get her students back, it was the wrong way to go about doing things. I did think it was kinda sad seeing Ruiko had no abilities whatsoever. And I knew at least eventually in the show she'd be tempted into trying something dangerous, knowing the consequences, just so she would feel like she could be of help to the others and not be left out, it was understandable in a way and completely reckless in another. Densei was crazy and weirded me out when she laughed. I like the opening; I thought the full version sounded pretty good. Some of the actually soundtrack was pretty good as well. All in all a pretty good show.
Jdwheels1 rated 7.00:I was told this was a great series to get into. I was not as kind to it. Sure it is good, and has a great idea behind it - I thought the characters could have been developed better into a deeper sort of thing. The story as an idea was brilliant, but for some reason was not fully done right. It is not a bad series... but anyone could see that this could have been a monster of a series. This is good, but not great.
