Synopsis Toaru Kagaku no Railgun:
In the futuristic Academy City, comprised of 80% students, many of whom are espers gifted with unique psychic powers, Mikoto Misaka is an Electromaster and the third strongest among only seven espers who have received the Level 5 ranking. The series follows the adventures of Mikoto and her friends—Kuroko Shirai, Kazari Uiharu, and Ruiko Saten—exploring events that occur before and during the plot of A Certain Magical Index. Together, they face challenges, mysteries, and situations that test not only their powers but also their bonds of friendship.
Therefore, the manga is written by Kazuma Kamachi and launched in the April 2007 issue of Dengeki DaiohASCII Media Works' A Certain Magical Index, also by Kamachi, and takes place before and during the events of the main story. Seven Seas Entertainment began publishing the series in North America in June 2011.
Thus, the first season, produced by JCStaff, premiered in Japan in October 2009, followed by an OVA released in 2010. A second season, titled A Certain Scientific Railgun S, aired between April and September 2013.
Finally, a spin-off of the manga, called A Certain Scientific Railgun: Astral Buddy, was serialized in Dengeki Daioh from April 2017 to July 2020. Furthermore, the third season, A Certain Scientific Railgun T, premiered in January 2020.
