A Certain Scientific Railgun
とある科学の超電磁砲
Toaru Kagaku no Railgun
Mikoto Misaka can launch an arcade token on a blast of electricity, and that trick earned her the nickname railgun. She ranks third among the seven Level 5 espers of Academy City, yet she started at Level 1 and got there through hard work. Mikoto is not in Judgment, the student force that polices the city. Two of her friends are. Her roommate at the elite Tokiwadai school is Kuroko Shirai, a teleporter who is openly infatuated with her. Kazari Uiharu works with Kuroko. Uiharu's best friend Ruiko Saten has no power at all. The first big case centers on a power-boosting shortcut called the Level Upper. Mikoto also keeps picking fights with the hero of A Certain Magical Index. It spins off from that series and is easiest to enjoy if you know its world.
