Index at #3? Coincidence? I think not. season 3 confirmed!




Crying or Very sad


I've never heard of Ryuuou no Oshigoto! but that girl is super freaking adorable. Like S-tier.

Biribiri will forever be atop the favorite LN female character ranking, except for that one year.

6. Ninja Slayer or Kenji Fujikido (Ninja Slayer)
7. Tatsuya Shiba (The Irregular at Magic High School)


Seeing those rankings made me legit laugh out loud. Although, I didn't realise Ninja Slayer was that popular.

Shirou Shiratori's previous work was No-rin; the one before that was one about a prince turned into a girl being rescued by an all-girls battleship which forbids members of the unfair gender. Not saying this new novel isn't good, since I have not read it, but his resume doesn't give the vibe that it can be objectively better than Re:Zero...

Unfortunately, this is probably the main reason why there is no Index III so far. The publisher have no gain in investing in a new anime series because the LN sales are already so high.
The only chance is for the BD/DVD division of the Index Production Committee to step in for the BD/DVD sales as happened with DxD and SAO.

Every year index and its core characters are in the upper charts and we still don't have season 3. What kind of bullsh*ttery is this!?

Well I'm not surprised by the ranking of some of these, particular the Index rankings. Also heard good things about Kono Koi to, Sono Mirai before.

Nice to see Goblin Slayer at number five and Kono Koi to, Sono Mirai could fill the Wandering Son shaped hole in some people's lives if it gets licensed.

Damn, Accelerator created a new series just for himself.
It's probably better than his spin-off manga Laughing

Nope. There are only the spin-off manga. Or have been any new spin-of LN about Accelerator? That would be good.

He was making a joke about the typo "certain scientific index" when it should be "certain magical index"

I'm not surprised that Ninja Slayer is as popular as it is and regardless of what some people think Ninja Slayer was never meant to be taken seriously which is why the Anime is so great. Cool

Exactly and I still don't get why they didn't put it on Adult Swim/Toonami. I think that when a show is horrible but that show knows it, you know that the writers achieved what they set out to do.
