To Aru Majutsu No Index - 01
OP Sequence






OP:
PSI-missing by 川田まみ (Kawada Mami)




ED Sequence
ED: 「Rimless~フチナシノセカイ~」 (
Rimless ~Fuchinashi no Sekai~) by IKU



I commented in the Fall Preview that the way this show was being animated reminded me a lot of Shakugan no Shana. And since the OP is sung by Kawada Mami, my immediate reaction upon hearing it was that it might as well be the OP to Shana 3. Still, it’s a pretty good song - the ED is as well - and it’s back up by some very well animated visuals.
Preview 


-Wow, out of all the shows I’ve seen so far this new season, this has left me the most impressed, at least production quality-wise. Kudos to J.C.Staff on that. They managed to jump back and forth pretty well from the comedic to the more serious styles, and there was a lot of detail, especially in the shots of the city. The strength of the production quality alone has me wanting to blog this.
-Story-wise, the pacing was a little faster than I expected, and that’s not a bad thing since they got all the way to the appearance of Stiyl, past what I consider to be the most boring parts of the exposition. The fire battle next week looks really good in the preview.
-The characters meanwhile turned out to be pretty much how I imagined them, with Mikoto being appropriately spunky, Index being very cute, and Touma acting like the average male lead in this kind of series. Fortunately, there’s nothing about him to dislike, unlike a
certain someone.
