Apr 04, Sean O'Hara rated A Certain Scientific Railgun: Volume 5 liked it Shelves: mangashonenactionscience-fiction. This volume starts with the climax A Certain Scientific Railgun: Volume 5 the Sisters Arc, the final showdown between Kamijou and Accelerator. And after about fifty pages of that, we start the next arc and everything falls apart. While the whole series up until this point has taken place over a single summer break, the new arc marks Misaka's return to school, and the plot dives into silly high school shenanigans, including a new transfer student and a sports festival. I assume there's going to be some point to this eventually, but This volume starts with the climax to the Sisters Arc, the final showdown between Kamijou and Accelerator. I assume there's going to be some point to this eventually, but at the moment it's just cliche after cliche, none of which fit into the Raildex universe. The conclusion of the Sisters Arc, and the start of a new one. I didn't like this one as much as I did the previous one as there were some holes in the time line. Kuroko getting hurt but when did that A Certain Scientific Railgun: Volume 5Kongou apparently finding out Misaka's name in the competition near the end she apparently knew Misaka's name and A Certain Scientific Railgun: Volume 5 was also no awkwardnessand some other things. It just felt disconnected and weird. I took too long to review this, so my memory isn't so fresh. Basically, this entire volume about pages is completely dedicated to being an intermediary stage between two large arcs, that concerning Accelerator and that concerning thicc Misaki and her mind-control powers. The Accelerator arc was more or less wrapped up by last volume, and while he did strive for some broken-ass world-ending power by grabbing the vectors of all the converging winds surrounding the planet, this volume obliter I took too long to review this, so my memory isn't so fresh. The Accelerator arc was more or less wrapped up by last volume, and while he did strive for some broken-ass world-ending power by grabbing the vectors of all the converging winds surrounding the planet, this volume obliterates that idea with the Sisters' hijacking of the windmills, as already teased at the end of volume six, alongside aforementioned wind-grabbing.
