Who, me?

Impressions:

It’s really awesome that we’re getting into some actual development for Mikoto finally, with the Misaka Network and Accelerator stuff proudly shown off in the OP instead of a repeat of "evil-looking office lady is evil." Accelerator was one of the highlights of Index, and after all the Saten whininess it’ll be nice to see someone who doesn’t completely suck get some screentime as well as the show actually use the powers for some reason other than people whining about not having them. I’m glad that they’re not just pulling some other random tertiary character to the front and pretending like we should care about them. It was also awesome in this episode how they animated every one of the fight scenes instead of just skipping over almost all of them. That was particularly great.

Because nobody would be so stupid as to make an arc about spider themed, milk-dreaming punk who have acquired a magical machine that strips out the one interesting element of the entire series while emitting an intensely irritating noise. That would be crazy.
