      Also a thing, if you pay attention to the small details, the whole 52 volumes, except for the SS and spinoffs like Railgun, are happening in a period of time of only 6 months, and in that short period of time is logical than a lot of new chatracters are not appearing more on stage; as real life goes, those new characters are dealing with thier issues after getting ''evangelioumanized'', and others just wanna live in peace, so people like Himegami can be living chill and the Amakusa have their own work to do, they're not Touma's backup for every time he's in trouble, so it's also logical give more screen time to those who are around Touma or have a direct interest in him, like MisaMisa, Accel and even Ham-man. Not all the cast is made to mandatory be on screen at certain time, this is not s generic story

    It's funny how misaka replaced index in popularity as the new seasons came out. She had to overcome her original role of random biribiri tsundere and thanks to her background she got her well deserved fanbase.
    I personally think the association to sisters arc is key to make any character adorable in the franchise. Example: Accelerator and Last order / Misaki and Dolly. Even Mitsuko Kongou shined in railgun T.

    I agree fully with what Aeon has said. Misaka Mikoto is a great character who's the victim of toxic corporation discussions and marketing. Her insane popularity has had both a positive and negative effect on the series as a whole with the two famous cases being the Index Manga had to skip OT2 and OT4 because they wanted to get to the OT arcs where Misaka appears and Touma Kamijou being thrown under the bus several times in games and crossovers with some of them not having him at all. The most famous case is Dengeki Fighting Climax where Misaka Mikoto was a playable fighter but Touma Kamijou was sadly a supporting character due to an excuse that he would be too broken in-game. However, this reason later fell apart when a guy who worked on the game posted on a very famous To Aru Discord channel that Touma could have been made playable but the higher-ups only cared about Misaka and Accelerator.
    All this pushing and marketing, has given birth to toxic flame wars in the fandom With one side outright hating her, leaving healthy and normal Misaka fans not wanting to follow the series anymore and are scared to dare speak out if they like her. On the other side, you have the toxic side of Misaka's fandom outright saying the series sucks other than Misaka and Railgun and some even going far as having sexual thoughts about her.
    I would like to stress, that I'm no Misaka hater nor this is an attack on a Misaka Mikoto fan who is healthy and normal and just generally loves her character and the series. You have every right as a fan to have her as your favourite in the series as anyone does with their favourite character. It's more of a dig at the corporations and Anime/Manga/LN marketing in general, who see the most popular female character as nothing more than a marketing tool for money even going so far as to dress them in skimpy outfits, to get the wrong kind of people to throw their whole life savings on a figure/art to fulfil their sexual illusions (despite theses corporations saying they don't support this kind of behaviour, when their marketing says otherwise).

Or when he was hanging by a ledge and she tried to kill him. Or the time when she tried to kill innocent people in NT17 just because she lost a fight.
      LN reader's know Misaka is an Immature brat. But seeing all the other cast develop or show new sides of their character. While Misaka stays the same cool bad ass tsundere who only beats weaker opponents gets kinda boring. Especially when you compare her to the 3 main hero's.

    Misaka is a very nice character to immerse the viewers into the science side. I think she also has a lot of humanity in herself and there is something really wholesome about how she and Touma compliment in each other and support one another, especially later on in the series. She innovated the usage of electricity in anime to a level that I think few to none can approach. She gained a lot of complexity through time and overall it's good, sometimes very good protagonist, for her series.
    She is not flawless though. While I love Kamikoto and Mikoto's motivations for standing side by side with Touma, I admit that many girls have more complex romantic backstories (especially Misaki and Ayu). It also would be nice if thought before acting sometimes especially when it comes to Touma (why she doesn't believe in magic yet?!!!). And her mental breakdown after witnessing Magic Gods abiltiies and culminating in her attacking people left and right after not being able to protect Tokiwadai in Element Arc is just... well, sad, and kind of disheartening.
    I love Mikoto, but when it comes to choosing between her and Touma specifically, I would no doubt choose Touma. Maybe because I am reflective type and Touma, despite being a melee fighter on many occasions, incorporates a lot of thoughts on life and human conditions into his fights.

    I mean she isn't as developed as Accel. Nor as complex as Touma. Misaki, Kuroko and Touma are good character's but around Misaka they just turn bad. Touma turns into a asshole, Kuroko turns into a pervert and Misaki, I'm pretty sure most of the source material fans pretty much hate the MisaMisa team up and her fans are toxic AF. So it's pretty understandable that she gets hate by the serious part of the fandom. Who aren't into waifus and just want good storytelling.

    As a Misaka Fan I usually ignore some bad comments about her by her haters or toxic fan of To aru, its childish to argue to people who doesn't want to hear others opinion. I don't mind about fans who critique her character as long as its their pure observation (not toxic) and it really does have a point cause I know her character is not perfect she also have flaws its normal. I like her character just the way she is maybe some don't like her Tsundere attitude but as an Anime fan for more than 20yrs believe me there's a LOT more anime tsundere who is worst done Misaka I'm used to different anime characters behavior I saw a lot of anime characters and their toxic fandom fighting about their personal fav anime & anime characters saying its the best but forcing someone who have diff. taste or opinion to like what you want is bulls$it they have their own preferences so at least respect their taste if you want to respect yours.🤷🏻‍♂️

    Don't ever change your off the rails comedy and assorted out of the blue interjections. It is absolute gold and always makes my day lol. Misaka is good but definitely not my favorite character. Accel will always be #1, with Touma being a pretty close second. Like any character., Misaka can be annoying at times but that is the same with most any character. She deserves the spotlight in her own way and is a solid character. People obsess over pretty much anything but I have never understood why she made people go bananas. As for shippers, I guess we all can be that way sometimes.
    If the quality of the Index anime series in roughly 2008 had been as good as Rail Gun then I am betting things would be a lot different in the popularity factor. Anime always brings in new fans and poorly done anime breeds discontent. Hmm, as for shippers, I think after what I have learned and read about Misaki, ( in part thanks to you Aeon ) I think she is just as good and perhaps even better pairing due to the "lost love" for Touma then Misaka is. Sill, it is nothing worth losing your mind over. Great video as always, keep them coming.

    you actually feel bad when seeing it’s actually quiet hard to find in the entire anime franchise.
