finally starting the “A Certain _____” series!

decided to go for the release order as the watch order

excited to see what the famous #anime is all about!

halfway through, and ‘A Certain Magical Index’ is definitely one of the more “ANIME” anime I’ve watched in a while

Halfway through the “A Certain” / Toaru franchise. It’s enjoyable but pretty mediocre so far!

Hopefully the later seasons have more world-building and chatacter development.

@animealan I believe this is a case of the usual adaptation issues, especially for the Index anime. I haven't read the source material myself, but I've heard the LN goes into much more detail about how the abilities worked and other worldbuilding stuff.

Doesn't help that the animation quality went down in the later seasons of Index (or so I remember).

@rgbunny @animealan having read the first series of the novels, I confirm that a lot of the explanations (and even a few story arcs) are glossed over in the anime for time constrains.
@nikelui I've really gotta get around to reading the LNs someday.
@rgbunny it gets better: the entire series (22 books) is just a prologue to the new testament (other 22 books, I also should get around to reading it  ).
