So how good is A Certain Magical Index? I watched both seasons of the anime as well as A Certain Scientific Railgun and was wondering if the light novel series would be a fun read.

Things get really dumb and then quite boring for a while as about 50 groups from ~the darkness of academy city~ roll up.

I really don't care for the boring third protagonist and the immortal meltdowner

I'm reading psycho love comedy, which is about a guy interacting with girls with various sizes of baps, the gimmick is that they're in a school for murderers

Namtab

The guy is not a murderer, the girls may or may not be, one of them wears a gas mask and has ample baps

I assume yes, but the people posting in this thread aren't particularly inclined to read things in the vein of "I Was An Ordinary High School Student But Now I'm A Light Novel Protagonist And The Entire Premise Is Spelled Out In The Title?! (And Also My Sister Is Part Of My Harem?!)"

It's about a goony girl who reincarnates as a giant spider: http://blastron01.tumblr.com/tagged/kumoko/chrono

Does the picture of a spider at the top of the page count as fanart?

No, but I'm definitely gonna block it out

Thanks for linking my spider translation, Silver2195!

Namtab, if you reach the end of those and want to catch up with where most of the discussion is, there's another translator that's blazing through it far more quickly (and far less comprehensibly) than I am: http://turb0translation.blogspot.com

I'm going to read yours seeing as it reads better although I'm gonna judge you for the banner pic

Against the Gods I'm pretty close to either dropping or moving to a...'let's see how bad this can get' category. The first rape power-up was dumb and aggravating, but apparently the author has decided that that's how he's gonna roll and moves full steam into a similar setup. From some comments I can glimpse that that's where Martial God Asura already went in the past so I'm probably gonna avoid that one pre-emptively.


Maybe you should not read the book with rape powerup s
