It's almost embarrassing to admit, but I only started watching because I saw the "fight" between Accelerator and Awaki on a WatchMojo list (top 20 one-sided anime beatdowns or something) and thought that the guy looked cool.

I started with the Railgun anime because I had read that it's better than Index, then stopped watching because I got tired of waiting for Accelerator to show up (lol, should have started with Index) and because the filler episodes where they modeled in bikinis and put Misaka in a maid uniform annoyed me (because it's at odds with Tokiwadai being strict about its image and its student appearance but whatever).

A few years later I found out that Accelerator appears in Railgun S, so I finished both seasons and then continued with the first two seasons of Index plus the Accelerator anime (oh how they butchered my boy).

Then I heard how much better the novels are, so I decided to put the remaining seasons on hold and started reading the novels and manga. I started last April, have since finished the Accelerator manga and am currently on OT12. I'm holding off on reading the Sisters arc in the manga until I have a few quiet days to enjoy it.

What about you? What brought you into the franchise and what kept you here?

Accelerator abilities:

Vector manipulation: the ability to control the movement of pretty much everything

-general destruction

-telekinesis

-flight

-blood control

-bioelectricity control

-etc

Redirection: passive ability that reflects anything that can harm accelerator

Dorm Supervisor abilities:

Martial arts: skilled enough to casually snap necks without killing

Fear aura: causes everyone near her to feel intense fear

Aoe ranged imagine breaker: similar to Touma's imagine breaker but can evidently be used from ranged, as seen when kuroko is unable to teleport away from her death grasp
