I watched this season after watching the first, and sadly, not much has changed. It still has a bunch of new characters that are cast aside for even more new characters to the point where you only know the names of the main characters!
As for the action, the pre-fight speeches are at least 4x longer than the fight itself, REALLY! The speeches about who is right or wrong before a fight literally go on for like 5 minutes.
Also, this series does have a fair amount of ecchi every now and then, but just enough to NOT qualify as an ecchi series. (read more)

Also, this series does have a fair amount of ecchi every now and then, but just enough to NOT qualify as an ecchi series. To be honest, a rare flash of panties or cleavage was rather refreshing every now and then.
Ultimately though, this series was a dissapointment. Once one problem was solved, another one appeared in the very next episode with yet another confusing, non-rememberable name or reason. It became hard to follow the plot, and soon it became hard to even care, as this is an anime where ALL the main characters are "protected" from serious danger.
This anime was a letdown really. Kinda overrated. Time to move on, I guess. (show less)

A very nice anime with good animation. I have read the novel at least three times until the latest volume, and compared to the anime, the novel is still better. Even so, I must give at least 7.5/10 points for Toaru Majutsu no Index for the characters and smart-extremely-long-dialogue, though the plot disappointed me. After the first seven episodes, the rest of the episodes have nothing to do with Index anymore. She even hardly get screen time, and more like one of the supporting characters instead of the main one. So why did they name it after Index, (read more)

And even though they kept saying 'If Science and Magic clash, the epic will happen', as far as we could see, nothing really happened. I know that I'm giving more the negative side than the positive one of this anime, but it really does enjoyable and fun to watch. Not recommended for those under 16s, though, since it has a lot of violent-scenes and some fanservices in almost every episode. (show less)
Story (3/5) : The way the story is build is not the best way to present the story, some people may end up hating / drop it even though it has a lot of potential. It's presented arc by arc, in the way of "Fairy Tail". The world of this anime is immense, there's magic, alchemy, "railguns" (I didn't watch the railgun anime, apparently it's a science magic sort of thing), vampire, religion, etc.) The main character has an interesting power also.
Dialogue (5/5) : Funny at some moments, and seriously complicated a some other point.

Animation (5/5) : really well done, the fighting scenes are not neglected at all
Entertainment (4/5) : the fighting and the funny moments are what makes this anime worth watching. The story may not charm everyone (I, myself, didn't like the story that very much) (show less)
