Review of A Certain Magical Index
#2 A Certain Magical Index Season 1 started off strong with cool concepts and awesome themes like magicians and vampirism, but quickly fell off after its first half. The show has better characters than it does a plot, which does lead to some emotion here and there, but eventually gets stale after not having a good enough story to follow. It's pretty humorous at some parts, and that's a few positives for the anime I could give it. The animation was pretty good, and especially for the fight scenes, they were quiet enjoyable. But, as I mentioned, the show goes off the rails in its secondhalf and became almost impossible to get what was going on for a few episodes. This show is great for someone who is starting to get into anime, or as a first 5 anime, but not for someone who has already seen a fair share of them to get a feel of what's good and what's not.
The final episode was a highlight.
