To aru Series is consisted of Toaru Majutsu no Index and Toaru Kagaku no Railgun!
The main story is Toaru Majutsu no Index, and Toaru Kagaku no Railgun is a spinoff. Although, the personalities are common and some episodes not described in Index are in Railgun, so they are in the same world.
Let me explain premises of this world. Here, supernatural power is proved by science. An academic city where supernatural power of every human is to be developed is where the story goes on. So, “magic” is not recognized so much here. Kamijou Touma, a student in this academic city, encounters a girl Index, who says she is chased by a “magician”, and the story goes on.
Toaru Majutsu no Index is an adventure fantasy of the hero Kamijou Touma and Index! Kamijou Touma had been considered as “a human without any power”, (even by himself). But his power was to “erase power of the person to whom he touched by the right hand”. This power was valid not only to supernatural power, but also to magic, so he became famous not only by people with supernatural power, but also by magicians! Also, Index herself (who was always beside him… by force) remembers 103,000 magical books, so many personalities came to them to gain their power!
One day they encounter Mikoto Misaka, who has a strong supernatural power that the whole city admires. She is the heroin of Toaru Kagaku no Railgun, and knows how to control electricity, and she can use it anyway she wants, like attacking! (throwing coins at supersonic, calling thunder, gathering iron sand to make a sword, opening electronic locks, etc. So useful! ) Although she is still a 14 years old girl, and wants to defeat Kamijou Touma, who defeated her (well, to say the truth, he erased her power and ran away) and chases him…! In Toaru Kagaku no Railgun, in which she is the heroin, unlike Toaru Majutsu no Index where the story is about magic outside, the secret of the academic city is revealed.
There is not only animation but also theater of the original story! BothToaru Majutsu no Index and Toaru Kagaku no Railgun are animated twice, so maybe the third one will come soon… Personally, my favorite is Kuroko Shirai, so I hope to see her cute face in animation!
