as a adaptation purist myself this adapation hasn't actually been that bad epseically compaired to the first season which took out two major points in two arcs and that misaka scene while yes it did not take place in the shower was in the novel.

Well the real test starts this week, if they fck the battle royale arc arguably the best arc of ot, then the fire in the blazing hell is goig to get down. I hope that they sacrificed the quality of terras arc for the battle royale arc, the arc needs at least 4,5 episodes. Anything less will just kill it.
Supposing it does get 5 episodes or more.

Do you not realize this will mean the later arcs will be even more fucked than they already are?

Unless they clearly state WW III arc is NOT part of Index III then giving BR or any of the other volumes any more than 4 episodes will probably not work.

The battle royale arc is my absolute favorite i would love to see it in all its glory even if it means sacrificing some other arcs. But as long as its not clearly stated that index 3 will adapt all of ot. It still have some hope, but definitely on friday it will all come crushing down, the pv of ep 4 clearly showed scenes of chapter 1 and 2 of battle royale (5chapters long) which means it will be rushed. Besides we still dont have any information abt the character design and voice actors of the other 2 groups (prof and mercenary group) which is another indication that it will be rushed (skipping characters). Still i hope that it will get justice.

The battle royale arc will have 3 episodes, chapter 1-2 in episode on this week, chapter 3-4 in episode 5, and focus the episode 6 in main battle Accelerator vs Kakine.

In personal opinion, I do not expect anything with the pathetic Director, only that Accelerator vs Kakine has good animation, and de best badass moment in the fight also beautiful Last order scene...

Mate i wish i had ur mindset, of not expecting anything. At least we will get more accelerator which is always a plus. Hope that they at least put a little more effort into it. 👍🏽😁

C document 3
battle royal 3
aqua 3
british royal family 3
dragon 3
WW3 3

that would be 18 episode

its probably

c documents 3
battle royal 4 or 5
aqua 3 or 2

and judging by the opening this would be the halfway point so that would be 12 episodes
british royal family arc. 5 (its 2 novels worth of content.)
dragon arc 4
world war 3 7


and yes i do know i left out SS2 mainly because i feel it was unnecessary i read the novels before reading SS2 and OT still made sense most the content in SS2 doesn't become important until NT
I said volume not arc.

yes and i pointed out giving it 3 for each one wouldn't be 26
and if you ment volume i should point out a flaw in that.

that is 29
plus if you count the SS2
that would be 32 so no they aren't doing 3 per volume.
besides not every volume is the same page count.

29 episodes. Exactly my point. It's already tight as it is, so giving BR more than 3 is going to mean jeopardizing other arcs.

your point is that they will have 29 episode when its already confirmed they will have 26?

did i just not prove its not going to jeopardize the other arcs let me do the math i literally just did already.

so

at most

they can't do 3 episode per volume if theirs only going to be 26 episodes in total. unless the last 3 episodes are going to be ova the math doesn't add up to 26 regardless how you split it from arc you get too few from volume you get to much.

Only source readers would bother watching this show at this point, so yeah, of course the source is going to come into the discussion. Its not like the adaptation can even stand on one feet with such a shit director.

most people giving it shit are the ones who expect it to fail the second they heard it was 26 episode. instead of taking the wait and see approach. they are so admiment that its going to fail that they literally get mad ay any little mistake. and some people are giving it shit for minor changed that literally kept the same exact dialogue just in a different placement @ap1001 *COUGH*

This has gone longer than I intended. I am using this arc as basis for the bare minimum, since according to some people this arc was intentionally cut short because no one cares about it.

The backgrounds of Avignon are really beautiful. I wonder how it is that Accelerator was present at the military action in Avignon, I am very curious.


> Touma being the deus ex machina of the situation

How?

Did he display any new powers, did he come from nowhere?

Are you sure you know what deus ex machina means?

Because if anyone could have that label in this ep is Accelerator IF he wasnt foreshadowed a few minutes ago.


Maybe it's a bit exaggerated as a comparison, but Touma always succeeds in any situation, to get rid of it without too much trouble.

Yes, I agree with you that maybe Acceleator can have that definition.

RIP Terra though, that Accqua guy doesn't mess around lol and also it was nice to see best boy Accelerator and best girl Misaka have more a presence in this episode

Hopefully they'll be shown more in the coming eps :D Good ep and good fight overall


hes had amnesa since ep 6 of season 1 why are you watching season 3 if you have not seen season 1????

honestly the action scenes were fine the only major complaint i had was the lazy earth blade rendition. it was still a chilling scene, but nowhere near as impressive as described in the novel where it literally leaves pairs in a sea of magma.

also accelerator finally has started to use his catch phase. "the quality of a high standard villain."

@ap1001

the contents and detail of that scene was basically the same as in the novel. They just moved it to the bath instead of being in her bed room.

however the conversation with herself was the same as it was in the novel.

anyway ep 4 is battle royal i did notice they cut out the mech suits using there weapons on the civilians. the air canon and tank shells that is.

How dare the main character solve problems how dare they main character are suppose to be useless who sit around and do nothing!!! how dare the writer make the main character get involved in plot points!!


I understood your point of view. What you say is legitimate, but if for once too Touma would make a mistake, it would not be a problem, it would give a bit of realism overall.

This isnt what Deus ex machina is.
Also no he doesnt ALWAYS succeed.This was one of the few times where he won alone.
In every other case he gets MAJOR helping hands from those close to him or loses.

He messed up several times in the first season alone there was the first arc couldnt save index because his power that was left to the teacher and he lost his memories. and the first part of the alchemist arc where he gets mindwhipped temporarily. Then the Angel fall arc is a prime example. He lost and onw of his friends got hurt. He messed up again in season 2 twice one by giving. Orseila directly to the people who wanted to kill her. Messes up again with orianna as she escapes from under his nose several times.

Oh yes and before i forget he failed to save one of the sisters. So much deus ex machina on that sister she died.

It's not amnesia, his episodic memory was literally destroyed prior to that date (frog-faced doctor, Heaven Canceller, told him that he couldn't repair it because there's nothing to repair), when a certain spell touched his head.. normally it'd be instantly fatal, but because of Imagine Breaker he survived.

You should watch or rewatch or pay more attention to the series :X

But worst is the execution, they are really on a budget and only want to the main scenes.

He messed up several times in the first season alone there was the first arc couldnt save index because his power that was left to the teacher and he lost his memories. and the first part of the alchemist arc where he gets mindwhipped temporarily. Then the Angel fall arc is a prime example. He lost and onw of his friends got hurt. He messed up again in season 2 twice one by giving. Orseila directly to the people who wanted to kill her. Messes up again with orianna as she escapes from under his nose several times.

Oh yes and before i forget he failed to save one of the sisters. So much deus ex machina on that sister she died.


the sister got seriously hurt not killed

I'm talking about the other one that died in the alleyway next to him.

i'm sorry guys but my suspension of disbelief took a nose dive the moment AC attacked a major nuclear power allied with major nuclear superpowers like you'd attack Zimbabwe in the name of freedom

the fact that they couldn't be assed to ask even a french speaking toddler the proper grammar for the signs not helping either, i can't, no matter how much effort i put into it, take this story seriously anymore

i'm still trying to understand how they manage to make the railgun/accelerator storylines fairly entertaining and immersive but fail to make the index parts not look like a bunch of chuuni mix of technobabble/religious words incoherently bundled in a bag of bad storytelling

also how many times is this MC going to have amnesia issues, is his whole deal that he gets his memories reset by accident every 3 months or what

Tsuchimikado.
The science side has attacked.
Terra left.
lol at Misaka.
Terra is back.
The C-Doc?
Holy shit! Stealth bombers?
Accelerator!
Holy shit!
Itsuwa is hurt. No!!!!!!
Terra knows Touma lost his memory.
Sono gensou wo buchikorosu!
Dat punch.
The C-Doc is gone.
Holy shit!
Accelerator.
Acqua.
Terra is alive.
Now he's dead.
The pope.
Acqua of the Rear.
Misaka heard what Terra said.
Dat ending.

Itsuwa continues to look fine. The Imagine Breaker sfx is just not doing it for me. Can't believe they changed it from the iconic original. Seeing Terra talk to Acqua and mentioning Vento reminds me of Kingdom Hearts. lol

That was an ok-ish adaptation of the Avignon arc, it wasn't the most interesting but it did its job of telling the viewer that the war has finally started

Hm.. So what Touma would have to remember, in that green guy's opinion?.. How to release potential?.. Is that it?.. Or something more?.. And yeah - Touma did lose his memory.. In first arc of Index, pretty much..
Russian Church also joins side against Academy City, hm.. And well - at this point.. It doesn't seem like any of the side is good.. It seems like all sides are baddies for now, lol.. Well, except for some good characters we know..
And we see the Pope, hm..

Animation still sucks, but there's something worse. Aqua acted way too slow when he attacked Terra, compared to the books where the attack was so fast and/or surprising that Terra did not have the time to react. Going by the anime, it looks ridiculous that Terra managed to activate Precedence during the plasma attack.

The way Academy city was nuking such a small peaceful town of France just kinda.. kinda had me in stitches. Ignoring that, things got a conclusion a tad too easy in the end. I mean the usual.. Touma punching his way through.

Also why they even bothered showing Terra making it out alive when just the next minute that uptight right seat of God vandalized him with a fucking pillar lmao.

Finally we're talking about Touma's memory loss which happened eons ago??? Thought this show forgot that thing even happened. Misaka knows it too now btw.

Manipulating precedence is an interesting ability. It has so many cons, though.
It's too bad Terra died before he could finish what he was about to say. I'm curious about the Imagine Breaker too. Wow, I didn't expect him to live and then die suddenly in the same episode, lol.
