Why Are The Index Movie and A Certain Scientific Accelerator Optional?īoth the Index Movie and second spin-off series A Certain Scientific Accelerator are canon stories, but they don’t feel like they are. If you go into A Certain Magical Index III without watching the second and third season of Railgun, you will have questions and the series will act like you are supposed to know a lot of these characters already because, well, you would if you watched Railgun. They will be characters with important roles and a lot of focus.
The issue with skipping Railgun altogether is that the second and third season introduces characters you will see in A Certain Magical Index. I recommend if you didn’t like the first season of Railgun, you just endure it. After all, it is a “spin-off” and one is usually not required to watch spin-off anime, right? A Certain series disagrees. It is more of a pain in the butt, but is giving you the benefit of watching Railgun first while dodging a lot of the downsides.Ī Modified Broadcast Order Watch Index/Railgun Watch Order:Ĭan You Skip A Certain Scientific Railgun Altogether?Īs A Certain Scientific Railgun is a lot of Misaka just hanging out with her friends, particularity in the first season, you may feel the urge to just not watch it. The primary issue with watching Railgun first, aside from a lot of cute girls doing cute things fluff, is that you won’t actually know who Kamijo Touma, the main character of Index, is, and he makes important appearances in Railgun.īecause there is so many problems with a Railgun First watch order, if someone has sold you on Railgun First, I would instead recommend this modified Broadcast Watch Order. However, that arc is early on in Index season one, but in the middle of Railgun season two. Railgun is more light-hearted and a lot cuter in the beginning, but it does one of the strongest arcs in the series with the detail (and emotion) that you really wanted to see. If only Index would have done the Sisters Arc the way they did it in Railgun, then we wouldn’t have this quandary, but here we are. However, there are as many problems with that argument as there are benefits. There is an argument that new fans should actually watch A Certain Scientific Railgun first instead of A Certain Magical Index.
