However, there’s not much character development for either character. This is mostly shown with his ways of protecting Last Order. While his actions aren’t always noble, the anime wants to make him look like a hero at times. To be honest, Accelerator serves better as an anti-hero than a heroic protagonist.
Well, he doesn’t really carry this anime with his over the top antics or personality. Considering the original main characters (Touma, Misaka, Hamazura) are absent, there’s a lot of emphasis put on Accelerator to carry this show. Whether you find Accelerator likeable or not is a different story. Like most people, you probably decided to watch the spinoff because you’re curious to see how this anime stands out on its own. If you don’t believe me, watch as how they dispose of those who gets in their way, even including their own allies. This is extended to organizations such as Scavenger, a mercenary group who shows no value of human life. Throughout the show, the plot is somewhat loose but always carry a sense of darkness. Unfortunately, the darker side of Academy City isn’t going to be a place of salvation for her or anyone else. With a friendlier personality and value in human life, Esther is sort of the anti-Accelerator. She was originally part of DA but defects after encountering Accelerator and Last Order. Another new character named Esther also gets her own background storytelling. On the other hand, this spinoff does reveal more background about the DA (Disciplinary Action), a controversial group of Anti-Skill with their own mission to deliver justice in Academy City.

The original series revealed more of his past so like I mentioned before, watch the previous seasons to understand his character. Storytelling wise, the spinoff itself surprisingly doesn’t contain much background plot about Accelerator himself. By the time this show ends, you’re going to lose count the number of bodies dropping on the floor. In contrast to Touma, Accelerator often resorts to violence to solve problems rather than words.
The only soft side he shows towards is Last Order, a young girl he devotes to protect from researchers and assassins. With his ever sadistic personality, Accelerator is by no means a noble protagonist. In particular, his fights reminds me of the encounters with Hound Dog feels similar to Index Season II. In fact, some episodes from this spinoff gave me flashbacks from the original seasons. He’s always had this ‘bad boy’ image painted over him and his actions speaks louder than words. Accelerator is somewhat of a niche character, meaning that it has a target audience. You should certainly expect the main story to chronicle Accelerator’s role as a protagonist despite his character being more of anti-hero. A Certain Scientific Accelerator deals with the science side and the darker elements of the Index franchise. If I said it once, I’ve said it a hundred times. Otherwise, the experience of watching this spinoff can be less exhilarating. Unlike Railgun, the show takes on a darker storytelling route although the overall style will feel familiar.īe aware that if you plan to watch this, it is recommended to at watch Index season 1 or at least the episodes dealing with Accelerator’s role and his encounter with Last Order. Its emphasis revolves around the dark side of Academy City. Written by the brainchild of the Index franchise, Kazuma Kamachi made this piece of work as an original spinoff. Considering a character like Accelerator, that really is no understatement. Accelerator, the strongest level 5 Esper in Academy City, should be no stranger to anyone who is familiar with the franchise.

The ever expansive Index franchise has led to numerous adaptations in the form of full seasons, spinoffs, OVAs, and even movies. With dangerous forces on the move that threaten to put Last Order and her sisters at risk, the self-proclaimed villain prepares to step into the darkness once again. When a mysterious young woman approaches Accelerator in pursuit of Last Order, the highest-ranked esper is confronted by a venomous organization that has taken root in Anti-Skill, Academy City's peacekeeping organization. Though Accelerator may be recovering from his injury, the dark side of Academy City never rests, and so he finds himself unwillingly caught up in the midst of a new conflict. By his side is the young girl known as Last Order, whom despite his cold demeanor, he holds closely and vows to protect at all costs.
The most powerful among them are the Level 5s, and the one known as Accelerator reigns supreme, even after being weakened by a severe brain injury. Academy City stands at the forefront of scientific and technological progress, best known for their development of espers: those capable of wielding superhuman abilities that alter the rules of reality.
