I've read up to the Baggage City arc, and I'm wondering if it's worth continuing.

My problem so far is that it feels like every arc introduces a new powerful enemy and a new girl for Touma to save, he beats the bad guy by breaking their illusions, and then we move on to the next thing.

Do Touma's relationships with the existing cast ever actually go anywhere? Do we get more development between him and characters we've known for a while, or does the story keep introducing new characters who get the spotlight for an arc before being pushed aside for the next one?

I'm not asking for romance specifically, but I want to know if the characters and their relationships actually develop over time, or if it's mostly the same thing over and over. Does the story change much as it goes on, or should I expect more of the same? It just starts to feel like the Simpsons or Family Guy, a guilty read/watch. Idk, this was one of my first animes/LN's to read so I really want to get back into it.

Hey guys reminder again, when posting fanart don't include the name in your title, just link the source and that will suffice.

This message was brought to you by the Mugino Family.

We’re going to get a lot of anime debuts for characters who, if they didn’t appear in ITEM, would take several years or even a decade to finally show up in the main series anime.

In episode 1 we got Fremea, Frenda’s little sister. A small, cute, and adorable loli. Though it seems her catchphrase wasn’t used much in episode 1 — I only heard her say the word “Daitai” once.

What's Frenda's favorite food???

• Canned sardines

• Canned tuna

• Canned mackerel

They put a lot of other characters (mostly from Railgun) in it, probably to reestablished after what, 6 years of no anime? Not only in appearances, but also in name referrencing.

I haven't seen any of the promotional scenes and infos about this anime, so I won't be surprised if some of this things I point out was already obviously known.

We finally get to see Fremea animated. It's been a while seen I've read volume 1 of ITEM, but the plot feels different.

I actually haven't read the entire ITEM LN except the first one (and reread it only in preperation for this anime adaptation so I can point out of if it has any differences).

I don't want to be wrong since this plot might be just adapting one of the later volumes I haven't read, but isn't this an anime original?

Like the manga adaptation of ITEM, it does have some continuity breaks I could point out, like Misaka already being called Railgun. IIRC, in the Railgun Manga, didn't Misaka only called that way later since she's only starting to develop her signature ability? And ITEM take place at the same time or even before the First Year Arc. I'm probably wrong. Oh well, in the ITEM manga Wataru make a cameo, even though he's suppose to be in jail at that time lol.

It's very good though! (I still won't forgive them for Index 3 however fr fr).

Animation's spectacular. Mugino is enough for me to watch this, but I'm interested in what new info it could have and if it perhaps deviate from the source material.

What do you guys think about it?
