The To Aru Kagaku no Railgun side story is based on Kamachi's original story set in Academy City, a city where about 80% of its 230,000 citizens are students. The story deals with the adventures of Misaka Mikoto, one of the Level 5 psychics in the To Aru Majutsu no Index light novels

This anime is the side story to Toaru Majutsu no Index, so people who haven't watched that need to watch that one first before understanding the characters in Toaru Kagaku no Railgun. The music, particularly the openings and endings are very good, and the characters that are newly introduced in this story are amazing! The storyline is seperate from the original season, so there won't be much of Kamijou Touma in this side story. The side story focuses on Misaka Mikoto, whom is also one of the main characters in the main season. In this side story, we get a new view of her life and even information about her dorms and her life with her friends, which we do not get to see in the main season, so this side story is refreshing, and not repeated. The incidents in this anime also do not connect with the main season, so it doesn't confuse us as much, though there are some characters who don't appear in the main season, so it's also good. Overall, I think that the episodes are very good, and are very interesting, as they keep you hanging and wanting to watch the next one. This anime is very good, and anyone who has watched Toaru Majutsu no Index and loved it, should watch it!!!!
