Amazon says the book has 440 pages. I'd say that means stuff happens.

Can we drop the meme it's a SOL comedy novel that will have shipping

I doubt Kamachi will give us 440 pages of blushu Mikoto and salty Misaki being ~misled~ into haremshit hijinx
>>
>>139640483

I knew it, time to see Yuiitsu go apeshit on the city. FIVE_Over, dark matter, something crazier than agitate halation, etc. Should be fun.

Also I'm sticking with my guess that Salome is a time stopper. Index was kind of due for one.
>>
>>139640554
I mean, I'm not saying Kamachi /couldn't/ write a sol comedy shipping novel if he wanted, but I don't think it'd be 440 pages even if he decided to have Mikoto confess and hear Touma's answer.

I think it'll be mainly serious. If she is a time stopper, I at least hope she's interesting and not "here, watch the Level 5s job" fodder

I don't know why people keep pushing that shipping shit anyways, if something like that was going to happen this volume you'd think that mikoto would be on the cover.

NT13 was kamachi's answer to those fans, I doubt mikoto will be relevant again for a long time. She probably won't even be one of the level 5s that appear here.
>>
>>139640730
Yeah, if Salome is serious she likely won't be the Level 5 that appears relevantly. I'm guessing Accelerator, Kakine, and Gunha now have have a higher chance of appearing now that the volume is leaning more towards serious

My best guess would be Mugino. There is no way kamachi will miss an opportunity with hamazura and the bunny girl.
>>
Ironically I don't think it was it was the shippers that were pushing the "this volume will be lighthearted and have shipping"

I think it was the people who actually dislike the ship pandering that were claiming the novel will be shipping.

As in "ugh, it'll be another volume full of blushing doushio and ship pandering that will go nowhere"
>>
>>139640892
I don't think the bunny girl joke is that important. I mean if Mugino fits, sure, but I doubt he will force her to fit so he can "have an opportunity with the bunny girl"
>>
>>139640937

I'm just saying it could be a way to get ITEM introduced to the volume. We have no idea what Yuiitsu is planning, and if I absolutely had to make a guess I'd say it's taking advantage of takitsubo's powers.

This should be a full science-side volume since no magic gods are left besides othinus, who isn't worth much now.

>>139640483
>Amazon says the book has 440 pages. I'd say that means stuff happens.

Not necessarily. This doesn't mean much in Raildex.

>I doubt Kamachi will give us 440 pages of blushu Mikoto and salty Misaki being ~misled~ into haremshit hijinx

I wouldn't put it past Kamachi, to be honest.

Wait before we get a summary of the preview before getting your hopes up. Learn your lesson from past LNs.

It looks completely anti-hype. Two new characters we never saw or were never mentioned before and then we have the TouMAN falling for whatever reason. The cover doesn't spell well for the LN this time.

Yeah, NT15's cover is rather limp.

My favorite is OT19 simply because back when I first started reading it looked like something from a completely different series to me, and got me pumped. I was still recovering from the battle royale.

Touma wonders how IT can beat Kamisato who destroys perfect Magic Gods when it got crushed by 50/50 Othinus. It ends with Touma pondering "Is this really the same "thing" as last time???"

>"The name of the Dweller in the Abyss is Choronzon, but he is not really an individual. The Abyss is empty of being; it is filled with all possible forms, each equally inane, each therefore evil in the only true sense of the word—that is, meaningless but malignant, in so far as it craves to become real. These forms swirl senselessly into haphazard heaps like dust devils, and each such chance aggregation asserts itself to be an individual and shrieks, "I am I!" though aware all the time that its elements have no true bond; so that the slightest disturbance dissipates the delusion just as a horseman, meeting a dust devil, brings it in showers of sand to the earth."

We also had direct reference to Aleister "Summoning a demon in the Sahara" last volume, which is a reference to when the real Crowley claimed to summon Choronzon. Pretty much confirmed that it's Choronzon at this point.
>>
>>139644201
The demon existing in Raildex in absolutely no way "confirms" it ended up in Touma's hand after Aleister summoned it. It's a good theory and possible but it's not in any way confirmed like you're suggesting

There is nothing retarded about it.
Nothing wrong with never revealing the #6. There is no point in revealing her identity. I remember when one of the editors(I think?) commented about it, saying he doesn't want Kamachi to reveal her identity. I don't remember his reasons, though. That said, no reason to reveal her, it is not like the Level 5s are that important. Only from 1, 3 and possibly the 7 are important. If she is never revealed then nothing of value would be lost.

Obviously she's not a bad person, but she's very arrogant and doesn't really respect the law. For example, in Railgun S when Saten and her found all those cash cards she made Saten turn them into judgement. In the manga she just took her share of the cards and spent them on clothes.

Are you really this stupid? He literally changed her introductory scene in Railgun to make her out to be a moralfag. He changed it so that she only used her Railgun on the bank robbers car because Saten and a kid were getting hurt, and because he changed it so the car was coming right at her, making it self defense. In the manga, she literally Railgun's the bank robbers car while it's driving away from her purely because he made her spill something on her shirt, Saten wasn't even introduced yet. This is only one of many examples.

Fuck off, that's not true at all. There's a big difference between the canon manga and the non-canon Railgun filler. I've literally never seen someone try to argue that the Railgun manga isn't canon. It's not filler, it's a major part of the story. The filler in Railgun literally contradicts major parts of the mainline story. The manga doesn't.
>>
>>139659230
I never said it wasn't canon, but so is the anime filler. Kamachi wrote the plots for both of them. There is no difference besides your own subjective liking one over the other. Sure you can say bits and pieces of the filler like having problems with robots are misadapted, but that doesn't mean you can scratch it all off as non-canon.

Think about it this way, the dragons we saw in the Railgun manga have only shown up then and when Izzard was tripping. Every other time it's just been the invisible thing. If it turns out the dragons were supposed to be invisible does this mean I should scratch off the whole manga as being non canon while saying the filler is? Clearly not, it simply means a part was misadapted.

The anime filler isn't canon. It literally contradicts canon. There was that bullshit where Misaka actually has trouble defeating robots, which is literally a complete assassination of her character and ability.
>>
>>139659646
Try reading the whole post next time
>>
>>139659694
I did, and you're argument is shit. The Railgun filler's directly contradict canon and ruin the story, the manga doesn't. End of story. Filler isn't canon, manga is.
>>
>>139659764
So you missed the part where the manga is also taking liberties and could very well be contradicting the canon too then?
>>
>>139659392
The fanfics about Accel dating Misaka are more canon than the nagai space
At least phases are a thing in the main story, there is no excuse for Nagai's butchering of the timeline
>>
>>139659857
Sorry to tell you anon but Kamachi thinks differently
>>
>>139659826
No, because the manga obviously doesn't contradict the canon. Nagaispace shit literally ruins the whole story. Kamachi obviously has a plan for the Dragons, you can't just write them off as "taking liberties". There's a reason filler is called filler, and why the vast majority of the fanbase doesn't consider it canon.
>>
>>139660003
>the manga obviously doesn't contradict the canon.
I think you mean "doesn't obviously".

How is it obvious he has plans for it when it has only shown up the one time and then never again? That's like saying he clearly has plans for Himegami.
>>
>>139660132
Because the dragons have to do with the main character of the series ability, and it's a question many people have been asking for a long time. Kamachi easily could have had Touma just negate her 5.3 form without losing his arm, or just not showing the dragons at all, but he chose to show not just one, but multiple dragons all with their own unique form. It's fairly obvious that he has plans for the future.
>>
>>139660212
>Kamachi easily could have
You seem to be thinking Kamachi takes a much more hands on approach to the manga than he does.
>>
>>139660258
Do you know Kamachi? Tell me, how much does he help with the Railgun manga?
>>
>>139660212
>>139660003
Please go get some fresh air.
>>
>>139660212
>all with their own unique form
I guess that means they also have different strenghts and Touma is right in thinking that whatever almost killed Kamisato is not the same as the one who got wrecked by Othinus.
>>
>>139660326
Nagai pls go.
>>
>>139660327
We already knew from Fiamma that Touma has more than one thing in his arm.
>>
>>139658533
>They used them as disposable mooks though

They use everyone as disposable mooks
>>
>>139660303
Just as much as he does with NagaiSpace. He said that he writes the plots for the both of them after all.
>>
>>139660440
Nagaispace isn't canon though.
>>
>>139660455
And here we're back to square one again, you can do the next loop with someone else.
>>
>>139660488
Ok. Nagaispace still isn't canon though, no matter how much you try to convince yourself.
>>
>>139660522
Keep thinking you're allowed to cherry pick what is and isn't canon even when the author says otherwise.
>>
>>139660568
Find me a statement from Kamachi that says the filler is canon. I'll wait.
>>
>>139660785
Find me one that says the manga is, I can wait for that too. all you're going to do is come back and say "but he wrote the plot" which is the same shit as the filler. The manga also doesn't kill sniper-chan despite Kakine clearly saying that ITEM killed her in the novels, want to strike off the whole manga as non canon still? Both adaptations fuck up here and there, get over it.
>>
>>139660785
Not who you're replying to, but it doesn't even matter if the filler is canon or not because it is just so inconsequential. It has zero effect in the real plot. Why do you guys care so much about the filler?
>>
>>139661006
Manga is canon because that's just how it is. Everyone in the Raildex fanbase has agreed that it's canon other than you, I don't need to prove it's canon. On the same hand, the majority of the fanbase would agree that the filler isn't canon, because it isn't. There's a fucking reason it's called "RAILdex", and not just Index, it's because the Railgun manga is worthy of being part of the main continuity.
>>139661019
Because it shits all over the characters and story that people love.
>>
>>139661138
>The manga is canon because it is
Wow, great logic there buddy.
>The fanbase chooses what is and isn't canon
>It's called Raildex
When have the fans ever mattered in terms of what is and isn't canon?
>>139661019
I don't give a shit about the filler, I just get annoyed by people who refuse to think about things objectively
>>
>>139661006
Not that anon but I think there was a twitter from an editor a while ago stating that the changes in the railgun manga were authorized by Kamachi
>>
>>139639741
>4 posts in
>already a shipping discussion
Literally worse than the Fatefags.
>>
>>139661281
And there was an interview where Kamachi said he supervised the making of the anime plots. Both don't have Kamachi saying "Yes Kakine was making shit up when he said Sniper-chan died" or "Yes Mikoto should lose to robots" is my point.
>>
>>139661260
I think it's very clear that the large majority of people who read Railgun and Index think of Railgun as canon. I don't know why you don't. The reason people fucking hate the filler(me included) is that it fucking sucks. It doesn't fit the tone of the universe, it doesn't fit the characters, it makes characters that are normally smart straight retarded, and it flanderizes others, like Kuroko. I don't like her that much in the manga, but she's a million times better than she is in the anime.

There's nothing wrong with discussing Mikoto and Railgun filler, the shipping shit makes up a tiny portion of this thread.
>>
>>139661356
Gee, aren't you underestimating Fatefags a bit too much?
>>
>>139661356
I dunno about that. Worse than fatefags and really just nasufags in general is a tall order. When Index starts having anime yuri comedy spin-offs where all the characters are turned into lolis then indexfags will probably comparable.
>>
>>139661863

I'm trying to imagine Railgun with everyone lolified and all I get is an image of Last Order wearing the Tokiwadai uniform.

In what volume hasn't he introduced a new character? There's nothing wrong with salome now that the threat of more magic gods is gone, especially if she turns out to have a neat ability.
>>
>>139664203
The problem is Kamachi does not properly handle new characters and old characters equally. He ignores established characters for the new hotness.
>>
>>139664620
Nah, he ignores the new ones too to add more of them.
>>
>>139659970
He doesn't.

If Salome is serious (i.e. a time stopper that is immediately going after Level 5s) I don't think she is going to fair well.

I seem to remember a certain time stopper in another series getting BTFO by "yare yare daze, you pissed me off" and that time stopper was a [spoilet]vampire[/spoiler]

I can think of one Level 5 that IS basically "yare yare daze, you pissed me off" and another 3 that could pull it off.
