After watching both seasons of Toaru Majutsu no Index, reading all 25 light novels, and catching up to date with Index's manga, I turned to Railgun in the hopes of seeing something with a great plot and great characters - and was disappointed.
As a person who watching Toaru Kagaku no Railgun's parent story Index first, I understand that my review might be biased and compare the two a little too much. I loved Index - the story, the characters, the music - and since Mikoto was one of my favourite characters, I had high hopes of Railgun being an entertaining story full of scientific ... abilities - something I loved about Index.
Unfortunately, Railgun didn't live up to my expectations. The story line was good at some points, boring at others, and too ecchi for my liking at times. Kuroko's perverted behaviour towards Mikoto, which wasn't so obvious in Index, was blatent to the point of being disgusting at some instances.
This isn't to say I don't like Railgun. I do. But as someone who adores Kazuma Kamachi's works, I find this spin off no-where near as good as Index.
So, overall, I give Toaru Majutsu no Index a 10, and Railgun a 6.
Please remember this is just my opinion; I am aware that there are a great many people out there who love Railgun.
