Tom Bombadil 07/20/18 7:02:11 PM #149:	A Certain Scientific Railgun, Vol. 1 Genres: Sci-fi/fantasy, comedy? Something like that. Story: Kazuma Kamachi Art: Motoi Fuyukawa Whose fault: Mine Today's BGM: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shLG-cw8RDA" data-time=" I have been curious about this one for a while, which is possibly how I somehow acquired two copies of the first volume. And none of the others, huzzah. First thing we see is a small girl taking down some kinda criminal. My kinda thing, probably. Her name is Kuroko, and she's with "Judgment," which appears to be some sort of law enforcement system involving robots? This is an area of Tokyo designed for and inhabited primarily by students, where they train psychic powers. They appear to be intrinsic but trainable. Kuroko's buddy Misaka Mikoto has trained to such levels of badassery that they have to have her shoot into the pool to test her. We waste no time in getting to a very ecchi shower scene, complete with traditional boob grabbin' and comparin'. Kuroko can teleport, I guess. Judgment is supposed to handle crime and stuff, but as one of only seven Level 5 psychicky people, Mikoto prefers to cut out the middle man and just handle stuff on her own. Kuroko grabbed Mikoto's naked boobs three pages ago but is still able to tease her about food sharing being an indirect kiss. Kuroko's fellow Judgment member Uiharu Kazari shows up, suffering from a cold. She's the one I always see with a flower crown. Anyway, BANK ROBBERY. Kuroko and Misaka get to show off their powers (Kuroko can also teleport objects and has a reputation for sadism, while Mikoto's "railgun" powers are electrical. Mikoto gets mistaken for a member of Judgment and gets dragged along by a senpai to find some little girl's bag. Mikoto runs into a guy she knows. Flashback time! He's a nice dude who helped her out of a jam with some gang types. (or at least, it LOOKED like a jam for somebody who didn't have super special level five zappy powerz) He appears to be immune to her zappiness, and says he tested at Level 0, which apparently isn't a thing. She wants more info, but ever since then, he's been avoiding her. Still, Mikoto wants a rematch, whether out of competitiveness or a crush I can't tell. She has a new move where she can control iron in sand (magnets? how do they work?) but he is able to simply dispel the attacks and fizzle a touch attack zap. Character profile informs me that her "railgun" move involves charging up an arcade token and shooting it. Neat. A couple of times we've mentioned "graviton bombs" and now it's time to get serious about that. Somebody has the power to make aluminum explode, and has been exploding stuff seemingly at random around the city. Unfortunately, the one registered Synchrotron with that much power has been in a coma since before the bombings started. Did I say we were getting serious? Some new character shows up and flips Uiharu's skirt twice in two pages. She's got one-a-them new fangled mp3 players that can download songs. Now I'm confused because we've been presenting this place as slightly futuristic but we're reacting like an iPod is new tech. Uiharu and Skirtflip McGee (Saten Ruiko) are going out shopping when they bump into Mikoto. I guess they go to a different school than her, because Uiharu has to interest her and Saten goes into fangirl mode. --- Look at all those chickens I can be impulsive!
