Watching Index Season 2?

Watching Index Season 2?


Watching Index Season 2?

Posted: 27 Feb 2011 06:47 PM PST

Just wondering how many of you are keeping up with Season 2 of To aru majustu no index? Whether you are or not, I have a small announcement to make that should be somewhat pleasing to you all.

 

Misaka Mikoto. She owns this series.

For those of you keeping up with Index II you can catch all the coverage at SUTORAKIUanime. Each week I cover all the points and my personal thoughts about the series as well as a bit of informative things about the episode and of course, my random ramblings. For those not in the know about the Index series, I will be posting a rewritten review here of the first season as well as the completed season 2nd season review as soon as it ends. Hope you look forward to it.

*Note*: And if you haven’t I suggest you watch the spin-off: Toaru Kagaku No Railgun. It features cute Misaka Mikoto and her friends in the Academic City as the discover mystery of the Science side, as where Index covers the magic side (but the two often converge). It would help watching the first season to get a feel of the characters, which some will appear in Railgun like Touma, the main protagonist of Index.

Infinite Stratos episode 8 review

Chapter: Find Out My Mind

Personal Impression

Find Out My Mind“. I think this impression is apply most to Laura, where Laura is still searching the meaning of true strength. This episode is turns to be upside down. A lot of things happen and it happen so suddenly. I can’t even catch up my breath.

 

The fight…

Versus

Versus

First, Laura paired with Houki fight with Ichika and Charles pairs. This happen too quick. In the first match, Ichika and Laura already fight!!!  Never mind that, the combination attack of Ichika and Charles is flawless makes Laura in the edge of loose until somethings triggers. A weapon called VT system (Valkyrie Trace System) installed in Laura’s IS start to operating when Laura desire it. Laura copying Chifuyu style that makes Ichika angry. Ichika fights till the end and he wins. VT system change the appearance of the IS to be the unknown and unidentified things? I don’t see any other significant increase in power and only for show off. Even Ichika defeat that thing in one slash! It seems to be weaker for me though…

 

The fan-service

fan-service

fan-service (bath-scene)

Major fan-service comes from Charles, a bath scene take 2. Ichika and Charles taking bath in a big bathroom. Guess what they do in there. :twisted: Charles revealed her true name which is  Charlotte, in a sexy and seducing manners! I hope that was me instead of Ichika there… :unsure:

 

Others and everyday’s life…

Trouble

Trouble...

For the time being, Houki and Laura are paired in the tournament. Houki looks weaker in there. Well, she doesn’t have  a personal IS and thats why she is left behind… Cecilia and Rin looks fine and they attend the tournament as a viewer. They seems restless when Laura IS changes into something… Are they worried about Ichika? or laura? In the class, a new student appear or should I say a new person with new looks. Charlotte Dunoa enter the scene replacing Charles image(guy to girl image). Then Rin interrupt the scene and want to attack Ichika. At the same time, the attack has been block by laura who suddenly appeas from nowhere. Laura kiss Ichika and claims that Ichika is her wife… Wth is that??? Kiss out of nowhere and claims Ichika becomes her wife and not husband… That’s identity crisis. Chaotic in the last scene. All the girls appeared to be very angry when suddenly Ichika been kiss by Laura.  This is all happen too sudden and I personally need to watch it again because of the things thats happen so quickly especially the last part.

 

Next episode preview…

The next episode I expect will be more fan-service to come. Well, Ichika and the others going for a school trip to the beach. What do you think and what do ypu expect when it comes to beach! One guy and the others are all girls in a beach. Men dreams come true..! :tongue:

For those wondering what it is or about it is in reference to Tokyo’s Bill 156; passed in Tokyo restricting the sale of “harmful publications”. You can download this below and please spread it to your friends to read.

Dragon Crisis episode 7 review

Chapter: The Truth About Wolves

Review

Ryuuji

As you know, Ryuuji and Ai has been brought into the criminals secret layer. Well, the place is look natural on the outside but it even basement lock up and Ryuuji has been lock up there. Ryuuji seems to be unconscious until Ai bust him out. Looks like Ryuuji is not that special after all… After that, Ryuuji tried to protect Ai and being hit countless time although shown he’s been only once… Without his Lost Precious, It is impossible for Ryuuji to win though. :(  After doing the engage things with Rose to boost his Lost Precious Power, Ryuuji still lost! Well, he caught of guard which the enemy attack him via the ground. In the end, Ryuuji didn’t win the showdown, but some else did.

Ai (a.k.a Aika)

Ai really loyal to her Master. She really trust his master like a dog until she wears the earing Lost Precious that gives the user the ability to hear someone inner thought and can detect lies as well. :whistle:  She turns against his master and free Ryuuji from the basement. Well, I personally can’t blame Ai for not knowing and her decision to wear the earing also a wise decision. For me, I agree with Ryuuji statement ” She’s really cute, and she’s a nice girl. I want to protect her.” .I really want to protect her as well!!! Well, she’s cute too, obviously. :tongue: well, she’s blushing after hearing that, Lucky Ryuuji… Ah! One more things is actually Ai has a real family and her real name also reveal! “Aika”, a lovely name, match with her cuteness and attitude. :lol2:

Furomori

A guy that embedded his whole body with Lost Precious. Not one or two, its FIVE in total! Thats just crazy! He is a level 8 breaker and also works to steal Lost Precious from others. His power is overwhelmingly strong. Without proper weapon, against him is futile. Not to mention his most powerful move that engulf people into darkness. Ryuuji been hit by this technique and cant do anything accept screaming helplessly. (LOL) This guy lying till the end. When Ai ask him her last question before he leave, he’s lying about he didn’t even care a bit about her…

Rose

The hero!!! I mean the Heroine of the day!!! She just in time to save both Ryuuji and Ai before serious damage happen. Bringing Ryuji’s Lost Precious and do Engage is a big help for them, but that doesn’t determine the winning conclusion. Rose burns Furomori tattoos around his body and stop him in the end. Rose herself doesn’t know how she did that. Lets just say the it is Lucky try. No, it is mutual feeling to protect who dearest to her… :wink:

Eriko

Nothing much to say, She’s just a driver and a information searcher. Thats also helps a lot… I think. Last minute appearance after the fight end and in the end she didn’t do much either.
