Past Animes Review: To Aru Majutsu no Index II / とある魔術の禁書目録 II

Dear Otakus (Haven't used this in a while)

As described by the title, i bet all your minds are going to be "Aw man, another Harem?"

For all of you who didn't watch this anime, this is going to be a little interesting. I'm most probably going to do a review on Season 1, later in the year.

There are people who ask me why was this show number 1 on my list for half a year.
The answer is "I have no idea."


So To Aru Majutsu no Index / とある魔術の禁書目録 II began in Fall 2010.

Life continues with Kamijyo Touma, the protagonist of the story. Ever since born, he has been blessed with an ability, yes, an ability to be UNFORTUNATE! YES! Anything his right touches instantly will become UNFORTUNATE, like a magic seal or spell. It's called the "Imagine Breaker"

The setting is the same as season one, in Academy City (Gakuen Toshi), the city of Espers. What are Espers? Espers (In this anime) are humans who have the ability to use supernatural powers by use of psychic thinking. A city where most of its resources are committed to the development of such individuals.

Index - San
Now, after the chaotic incident with Hyoka Kazakiri, Kamijyo is living a peaceful life once again, or is he? The chaos is unfolding again, as the magic world tries once again to rule the world, with the Roman Catholics.

In this anime, everyone is together! Kamijyo is fighting with his friends (so called), Styril Magnus, Kanzaki Kaori, Misaka Mikoto, Misaka Imouto, Uiharu Kazari, Shirai Kuroko, Maika Tsuchimikado Orosola Aquinas, Sherry Cromwell,  Accelerator, and not to forget, the main chatracter! Index Librorum Prohibitorium!

English Purist Church
At every scene of the anime, Kamijyo Touma will use his right hand to BREAK THOSE ILLUSIONS! Yeah!

If you watched Season 1 & the Side Story, "To Aru Kagaku no Railgun" you'd probably realise why it is my number 1 anime, well up to last week. The plot development for To Aru Majutsu no Index II is at a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT level, and how they eventually end the climax and let you figure out the answers is very exciting. The action scenes in To Aru Majutsu no Index II will also never fail to satisfy.

Amakusa Catholic Church
However, it doesn't go without complaint. This Season of To Aru seems very different from the rest in the previous 3 years. It is more

Roman Catholic Church
1)  Bloody
Which there is a scene of Himegami exploding with blood around everywhere. Oh yeah, and one scene where Accelerator punches Awaki Musujime and blood spews out of her face, and Accelerator ripping Amata Kihara's hair out, with, again, blood spewing out of his head.

2) Ecchi
Oriana Thomson. I hate her.
Watch to find out.
I know it's Japanese and their way of making anime, but wth... I watch every single episode and EVERY SINGLE EPISODE has EXTREME ECCHI. We aren't even talking about "Hidan no Aria" or even "Infinite Stratos" that kind of ecchi, but Oriana Thomson, Orsola Aquina, Index & Agnes Sanctis fully....  you get the picture. Yea lolicons will love it.

3) Too Complicated
Omg i had to watch it 3 times to get what it means.     For those watching this anime, please DO NOT Multitask while you watch this anime. If you miss even 5 seconds of what they are talking about, you lose the plot COMPLETELY. The way the plot is structured is far more complicated than Season 1.

4) Religion & Philiosophy
There is a lot of talk about Roman Catholics wanting to rule the world and their higher ups are pure evil & tainted. Many fights & arguments are also regarding the English Puritian Church &                                                           Amakusa Catholic Church. Wow.

5) THEY KILLED SATEN-SAN. SHE VANISHED.

Accelerator on Rampage
For all of you who don't know what To Aru Majutsu no Index is, it is the most complicated Anime/Manga/Light Novel Series that I (perhaps there are others, I'm sure) have ever encountered. AND I LOVE IT. Well, except for the ECCHI part. Yeah i should use caps for ECCHI and HAREM



So To Aru Majutsu no Index II was subbed by Ayako, and UTW-Mazui no Index has 24 episodes, and ran from October 8 to April 11



Well, for the time being, this will be the last post for the next 2 weeks, as i will have exam prep, but there will be small posts to keep you entertained! Mainly on Travel!

Bye Bye for Now!
