Anime review - Toaru Majutsu no Index
Just like the title says, this is going to be a review on the anime とある魔術の禁書目録 (Toaru Majutsu no Index).

The genre is Action, Magic, Sci-Fi & Super Power. The main characters are Kamijō Tōma and Index and the story takes place in Academy City, a city full of science. There isn't really a main story, it just follows Tōma and his resolve to fight and save his friends and creates many different scenarios.

What I liked about this anime was that there was action in almost every episode (not really action as in kicking asses, but there was always interesting stuff happening), which basically made it a lot more fun to watch. Another reason I kept watching was for the "romance" part, sadly there weren't any romance scenes and it disappointed me greatly. However, there were some scenes of Misaka (my profile picture) and Tōma hanging out and doing various stuff together. The good parts about those scenes was that Misaka overreacted on him at some points, and there were a few scenes where she was really embarrassed aswell, which made me like the two of them even more.

Like I said, there isn't really a main story and I didn't like the ending either. There were so many things that just stopped, like the "core" of Academy City (a human which basically was the core of the city, something like a supercomputer), I still don't know if he was a good or bad guy because he did some various things in the end of the anime. So the end is pretty messed up, it just kinda stops which disappointed me a lot more than I had expected.. The most animes I've seen that are good, like Fate/Stay Night or Shakugan no Shana, I usually cried at the end even if it was a good or bad ending. And this anime is definitely going on my favourite-list, despite the fact that I didn't cry in the end.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU TO WATCH IT IF YOU LIKE THIS TYPE OF ANIME

Or if you just want to see what the Super Powers looks like, you should definitely check on the first episode. It starts with epic music and actually shows Tōma and Misaka fighting in almost the very beginning of the episode.

I've got a picture to show you aswell, just for the fun of it..

In this scene he tried to cover her from an attack and they both fell over. Instead of kissing her or something, he instead worried about her red face and that she could have a fever...

Anyway, that was basically what I had to say for today.. I might make another review, but I'm not sure what anime. This is the most recent one I've seen, so it's still fresh in my memory.
I hope you had fun reading and that you check on the anime if it interested you. If you have any suggestions of what anime I should review next, tell me and I'll see if I'm available!

I'm curious: do you have any set days for blogging? Or is just when you feel like it? A good review/blog none the less.

Your blogposts are about different things, so you have some variation in your posts making it more enjoyable to read everyday. Although I'm pretty obsessed with anime I can't have a review everyday, so I might make one or two during the weekends.
