| Tuesday, 08 December 2009 | | Watch Toaru Kagaku no Railgun English subbed anime
The To Aru Kagaku no Railgun side story is based on Kamachi's original story set in Academy City, a city where about 80% of its 2.3 million citizens are students working to develop psychic powers and advanced technology. The story deals with the adventures of Misaka Mikoto, one of the Level 5 espers in the To Aru Majutsu no Index light novels.
Categories
Action
Action anime usually involve a fairly straightforward story of good guys versus bad guys, where most disputes are resolved by using physical force. It often contains a lot of shooting, explosions and fighting.
Alternative Present
Anime that fit in the alternative present category usually have technology and society that is very similar to ours, but with differences in both, history and culture, which sometimes are blatantly obvious, but sometimes harder to place; this one can at times be very subjective.
Asia
Asia is the world`s largest and most populous continent.
Comedy
Anime whose central struggle causes hilarious results. These stories are built upon funny characters, situations and events. A comedy anime is laced with humour and sets out to provoke laughter from the audience.
Japanese humour can be a bit strange to westerners, so if you`re new to this type of humour, just bear with it; it`ll most likely grow on you if you`re a fan of other kinds of comedy.
Earth
That big mud ball that most of us live on.
Ecchi
Ecchi, or etchi (エッチ), is a common Japanese word meaning "indecent", "lewd", "frisky" or "sexy", while its usage can be compared to the word "naughty". The term is used when vague sexual content, such as skimpy clothing or nudity, is prominent.
Japan
Last stronghold for humanity, if Tokyo falls, it`s all over. Tokyo tower will undoubtedly fall anyway.
Lolicon
Loli is a short form of the word Lolita, describing sexually precocious young girls. The related fetish for this is called Lolicon (Lolita Complex).
Original Work: Manga
Manga is the lifeblood that drives the anime industry. Everything and its mother is based on manga. However! There are exceptions where the manga was not the basis for the anime.
It`s common practice to make manga adaptations of many popular anime, there`s a manga based on Evangelion, and two (one shounen and one shoujo) based on each of Escaflowne and Mahou Tsukai Tai. Also it`s quite common to release manga and anime versions of a story in parallel, for instance Nadesico and Shoujo Kakumei Utena. There are also cases where an anime continues in a manga, or reverse, as in the case of Angel Beats! and Angel Beats: Heaven`s Door.
SciFi
Science fiction stories usually focus on how situations could be different in the future when we are more technologically advanced; due to either our own achievements or having met with other civilizations whom we have learned from.
Seinen
A subset of anime or manga that is generally targeted at a 18 - 25 year old male audience, but the audience can be much older with some manga aimed at businessmen well into their 40s.
Super Power
Be it an ancient Greek Hercules, a cybernetic muscle-man, or a fourteen year-old girl in a mini-skirted sailor suit. As long as they have super powers, they`re in the show.
Tags
all-female cast
All primary characters are female. Male characters, if any, will only have minor roles or be entirely absent from the story`s focus.
ass-kicking girls
The female characters in the anime are very proficient in some form of martial arts, swordplay, or gunfights. They may also have super powers.
awesome characters
One or more cast members are considered awesome for one reason or more.
beach episode
Also known as umi episode. Every anime has to have them, episodes in which the characters for whatever reason end up going to the sea, ocean, random island or the local pond.
Usually used for fanservice purpose as it gives the staff the opportunity to draw the characters in swimsuits and raise the DVD sales.
The cheap version is the pool episode.
Other marginally less used variants of this are the onsen episode and the sentou episode, used when it is too cold for a beach/pool episode.
beautiful people club
Who needs ugly people, not this show!
befriend attack
One character practically "pounces a hug" on another character.
Used as comedy element (slapstick) to demonstrate the exuberant affection of the (usually female) "pouncing" protagonist.
character driven
This anime concentrates on creating attractive characters, its plot and story play only secondary roles.
child teacher
One of the characters who is a teacher looks like a child, or is a child prodigy, gifted enough to "work" as a teacher.
creepy laugh
At least one character in the show inexplicably and repetitively seems to have the urgent need to laugh in a creepy, loud and usually very annoying way.
For male bad guys this seems to be a must, but some of the uppity (rich) female characters use the laugh as part of their condescending attitude as well.
curry episode
Japanese curry, usually eaten as curry rice — curry, rice and often pickled vegetables, served on the same plate and eaten with a spoon, is one of the most popular dishes in Japan, where people eat it 125 times a year according to a survey made in 2005.
As such Japanese series will often de a whole episode to the characters cooking and eating curry dishes.
electric girl
A female protagonist in this anime gives off high-voltage electricity — using it as a weapon for attack or defence.
Example: The alien female Lum from "Urusei Yatsura".
esper
Refers to an individual capable of a large variety of paranormal or supernatural abilities. Espers are often explainable by some form of science and usually describes the user as being born with their abilities (such as telepathy, telekinesis or other psychic powers), already being aware of their abilities or learning of them at a later time.
In most cases, Espers are categorized apart from Magicians, which may have been born with the talent of using supernatural abilities, but still require the need to learn or be infused with them before use.
fighting girls
The female part of the cast actually does all the fighting, typical of any mahou shoujo (Magical Girl) anime.
giant fetus
no description set yet
girl with flower head
The anime features a girl with flowers on her head.
improbable physics
The physics in this anime have little to do with real-world physics, and are actually very much exaggerated.
Examples: Cars hitting a tiny obstacle, but then flying through the air for no apparent reason, or flimsy bullets slamming heavy characters clear across the room.
monomaniacal girl with crush on female lead
One of the female characters has a (generally unrequited) crush on the female lead. This crush dominates the characterization of this character.
onee-sama
Onee-sama is a Japanese term which literally translates as respected elder sister, but can be used (especially by admirers) to refer to any young female. The onee-sama is always an older character, if only by a year. She is essentially a princess for the other characters with grace, beauty, and poise. An onee-sama usually meets her counterpart at some point in a story in the form of a charmingly imperfect girl who is too sweet, innocent, or clueless to be intimidated by her and merely wishes to make a new friend. Examples include the cast of Maria-sama ga Miteru, where most of the important characters are referred to in this way and Top wo Nerae! 1&2 where the protagonists of the story have the archetypical senpai-kouhai relationship.
parental abandonment
In Japan it is a common custom for parents to leave their children alone at home and embark on a lifelong trip around the world once they hit the tender age of 14, sometimes even earlier.
schoolgirl
A female protagonist who attends school, usually 6 to 18 years of age.
surprisingly good
Contrary to previous speculations or in spite of reviews, some would say the anime isn`t as bad as one might have originally thought it would be.
tsundere
A character type (usually female), who is often easily agitated or combative, but other times is quite kind and caring, especially in situations involving a person they are (knowingly or unknowingly) attracted to.
violent retribution for ecchi behaviour
One of the central vehicles of slapstick comedy with ecchi elements.
When one char misbehaves, or at least is perceived to do so, he/she gets reprimanded or whacked by another char - typically a tsundere - for ecchi (slightly perverted) behaviour. In this case it is *not* a reaction to *accidental* infringement, like tripping into cleavage.
As Asu no Yoichi! shows, the supposed "ecchi behaviour" of the male protagonist can also be over-interpreted by a tsundere. E.g. getting whacked for a nosebleed, when looking at a cute girl.
yuri subtext
Actions between two female characters that could be taken as or misinterpreted as being amorous in nature.
