| Oriana fighting = simply badass. 5/5 Touma punching Oriana = quite expected, but still great. 5/5 Touma/Index scene = for the first time, Index didn't bite Touma. 4/5 the rest after that = ok. just ok. 4/5 the fight scene is quite enjoyable... except for Touma preaching too much before attacking Oriana... i was like "damn it! can't you just go and punch that bitch in the face?!" but i had to admit Oriana's fighting style really made me happy... wanna see more of that in the next episodes.. |

EternalDreamer said: I was thinking of this too, you let you friend suffer to have some speech so you look cool to your fans but you friend is still fucking in pain! You dumb ass Touma! Aaaaaaarghhh! Seriously you hit spot on EternalDreamer! Spot on! A nice quote to Touma actions speak louder than words.'Oh no, I can't dispel Tsuchimikado by touching him and therefore I need to attack her and break the spell card asap instead, to end his pain. But first let's have a really long needles twat speech to make me look cooler^^' Inarius said: Oh yeah I love those designs! You do them? Right? I still think his ginga was more pleased seeing Oriana's breasts more but ROFL!tinman21 said: I know, should be eating frog legs! You know since it's Frog Face doctor. Good to see him, that doctor never stops making me giggle.pffft, I shouldn't have been eating during this part.. |

| I liked the last few minutes of the ep ^_^ |
"My happiness comes from the kindness of those around me" |
| Oh wow. I'd totally go for Misaka's mom if I could. |
Wasabi said: Any scene with Oriana made this episode watchable. Mikoto being boringly dere and Index useless as usual. Pretty much this, I love how Index II has turned into a MILF anime I really hope Mikoto grows up to look like her mom. I liked the episode, however; very bad animation... |

Inarius said: Not the face, Touma. Not the face!! Though nice merchandise, Oriana. Her shirt bursting was a bit overdue but whatever. Get me that closeup shot of Oriana's merchandise after Touma punched her and Touma was checking up on Tsuchimikado.Battle was good and all, minus the Touma speeches. Oriana is an interesting opponent. Her new dress screams wardrobe malfunction as well. Needs more of her. The transition from the action to the lighthearted comedy feels off. After all that action, Touma just returns to have lunch with his family just like that when the enemy is still at large. Really feels off. Second half was boatloads of fun though. Needs more of those interactions too. Though next episode shit's about to get real with Komoe sensei covered in blood and Himegami joining the story. About time she joins in too. And is it me or is Sphinx(the cat) a bit smaller than usual? |

Leon-Gun said: Tyranid5 said: Actually, they said the Stab Sword never existed at all and was just myths and stories that were created over the year. The thing they were passing off as the "Stab Sword" is actually the "Cross of Peter". So we passed from magicians potentially gaining a one-shot-kill weapon to the Roman Catholics ONCE AGAIN wanting to disrupt the balance of power by forcefully declaring Academy City and it's technology theirs.But this episode the same people who originally said that it was a sword said that they made a mistake and that it is actually a cross. So I'm not sure if the saint one-stab kill is still 100% accurate, but that's not the main problem at hand. The power of it is, if planted in Academy City, then the headquarters of the scientific of the world would instantly come under control of the Roman Catholic Church. That's what I thought, but just wasn't 100% sure because I posted after watching 2 other episodes that were released yesterday. |

Though next episode shit's about to get real with Komoe sensei covered in blood and Himegami joining the story. About time she joins in too. Yeah, but there's no way to escape Touma's moralfag speeches, they're long and inevitable. Think he's only spending a happy lunch with the family because he can't exactly do anything right now till Tsuchimikado and Stiyl figure something out, primarily where that cross will be planted, and two: he has to keep his image with Index up. Remember at the beginning they said she's being watched by the magic world during all this, so he has to keep her at bay and away from everything. Since he ran in to her directly after the incident, and since he can't do anything more, he might as well have a lunch with her and keep her away from the action. I've been waiting for more Himegami since her arc in s1 ended. She's one of my favourites and doesn't get nearly as much screentime as I think she deserves. |

| I just love this show nothing more to say... |
 |
| Ah, how satisfying when Touma punches a lady. huhuhuh And Misaka meeting Touma's parents, win |
Dan777 said: I loled a little when Touma's dad suddenly remembered that this strange loli nun was with Touma during their vacation. What kind of believable explanation could you come up with to make the whole "young men living in small one-room apartment with young lady" not equal "I like loli"Never knew Imagine Breaker could unbutton shirts i doubt Touma would complain though Mikoto's mum needs to be in this more she just makes the whole Touma and Mikoto thing that much better and there also needs to be more Index in that as how they act around each other makes me laugh |
 |
| Can't wait for episode 11... will we finally see magic and science clash all out? |
| That Oraina vs Touma fight was awesome. I actually saw Oriana getting punched coming. |
| every female villain gets a punch in the face |

I always thought he looked dumb. |
| Dat OP <3 He really can't get enough punching women, can he? Also, if we skip the seiyuu and the attitude, wheelchair-Kuroko is probably a force to be reckoned with. |

| Hmm...What an interesting architecture those buildings have. What? Am an admirer of fine architecture. Honestly! I want a battle with Oriana too!!. Ok another sexy female punched in this episode. This anime is so lol. It gives you the impression that the writer is some ugly woman that had her boyfriend stolen and she's letting out her frustration. But i have to admit some times punching a sexy female has it's advantages and no am not talking about shutting her up. |

| Oriana made this episode good. But the horribly cheesy dialogue, shitload of fanservice and useless Index made it pretty bad. Why can't this show be as good as the first season? ;_; |
 |
| Great episode! Alot of fighting....Oriana keeps on losing her clothes -_- and Misaka and Index reunite once again! i still love ToumaXMisaka though :) anyway looking forward to the next episode i wonder what is going to happen to the girl who seems paralyzed and wow the doctor is there again! |
 |
| Hmm the animation quality was pretty low in this episode :\ Meh...Touma ended up punching Oriana after all D: ( What a ass D:<) Quite a few hot scenes with Oriana that was the best parts in this and of course the last bit with Misaka :D Other than that, average episode. |
| I find the comments on this episodes quality kinda funny, because I remember starting the season and thinking "It kinda feels like they upped the budget this season, I can't wait for some bigger fight scenes!!!" and I'll admit the quality in certain shots is definitely lower, but I think they're putting priority on the fight scenes, because the action sequences seem just as good as before, but I'm not super attentive anyways...I didn't really notice the bad animation all that much until I read this thread xD I AM LIHN! |
Lihn said: Well, the quality started slipping after a bit. I think Otome Youkai Zakuro ate up a lot more resources than what J.C. expected. The fights are thankfully untouched for the most part, but you can see a lot of shortcuts and B-quality shots in some of the shots, including that super obvious one with Touma's dad.I find the comments on this episodes quality kinda funny, because I remember starting the season and thinking "It kinda feels like they upped the budget this season, I can't wait for some bigger fight scenes!!!" and I'll admit the quality in certain shots is definitely lower, but I think they're putting priority on the fight scenes, because the action sequences seem just as good as before, but I'm not super attentive anyways...I didn't really notice the bad animation all that much until I read this thread xD I AM LIHN! BTW, I rewatched episode 9 and 10 and I realized that Oriana's little "ouch gome" scene with Touma's dad is exactly the same as what she did when she stuck the Shorthand on the pole used during the school festival. So anyone wants to bet Oriana left a little "gift" stuck to the dad? That, and the ominous comment on Himegami is making me think the next few episodes might get pretty intense again. |
|
| only thing that wasn't enjoyable was Index appearing. |
  |
| The preview looks interesting. It mentioned something about Himegami and that's always awesome. I'll love to hear Noto Mamiko's sexy voice again. <33 |
| Touma and Oriana fight = The Real Ikkitousen |
 Lelouch FTW |
| Damn that sword ... if it ever stab at Acedemy city , the Roman will control Acedemy city .... Probably a war between them all ... anyway .. can't wait for the next episode ! |
| Catfight! Catfight! jk but anyway, i'm happy this episode didn't followed the typical "Bad girl does bad things -> Touma fights -> he ends a bit injured -> Touma punches the girl on her face -> bad girl is defeated" stuff and more Misaka always make this series a bit better Review here |
 Vrrrrroooooooommmm! |
TK-Onii-Sama said: Damn that sword ... if it ever stab at Acedemy city , the Roman will control Acedemy city .... Probably a war between them all ... anyway .. can't wait for the next episode ! If that happens.... oh the awesomeness The possibilities are ENDLESS: lots of action, epic battle scenes, and maybe Agnese will come back woot. And oh we'll see espers fighting magicians with Touma and Index between them just because of the Stab Sword being used inside Academy City. If that doesn't happen though, I just hope the ending of the Daihasei Arc will be Touma and Misaka getting together and being a couple <3 (this show needs more romanceeeeee) But that's just my opinion I hope episode 12 will concentrate on Misaka and Touma more :P |

KathyKaboom said: Imagine Breaker is certainly better than Stab Sword though. And actually, some magic attacks have proven to be almost too strong for his power, the very first arc had his right arm almost being shred to pieces by Index's magic and in the first season we saw enemies cutting his arm off to get rid of the effect. Actually, the first season was better in terms of enemies, He defeated somel enemies by actual strategy and bravado, like the fight with the alchemist Izzard.Also this imagine breaker thing is getting to goddamned predictable. I think he has one of the lamest cheesiest 'powers' in anime. It doesn't even have a visual clue short for that cheesy sound effect. Just like the main character in mugen no juunin, you just know he's going be alright because all he has to do is wave his right hand. Sooooo predictable. Sooooo mundane. Sooo lame. That said, the fact the power is limited to his right arm means that he can't just stop several attacks at once, nor can he stop collateral damage (like pieces of rock that fall of a ceiling due to a magic attack). He also can't stop magic attacks that happen faster than he can perceive (like the attacks done on him by that girl from the first arc this season). So as you can see, yeah, it's actually not that great an ability. |
|
| Not bad, they left off a lot but still it was pretty good. Though Oriana's moments should be longer. : o And Index didn't looks stupid without het nun hat for the first time for me, ever. : I can also already see the next episode being rushed, since they want to put two packed-with-action chapters in it. |
| レッツゴー ED イケイケゴーゴー |
| Touma, Gogogogo! find stab sword >.< I hope it's for 11'st eps catch a glimpse of the hollow world  |
| OW. I've pulled all my smiling muscles from the second part... but I can't stop..... |
| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
YEX said: Oriana rocks not only she got a nice body and face but she kick ass, i like to see if she could match up with kanzaki that could be an awesome girl fight in to aru majutsu no index !! ^_^ Regarding Misuzu: |

| Notice how the culprit is nearly always a woman and always gets beaten up by Touma... |
