List of A Certain Magical Index characters

The following is a list of characters from A Certain Magical Index light novel, manga and anime series, and its side-story manga and anime series titled A Certain Scientific Railgun and A Certain Scientific Accelerator. The series primarily takes place in Academy City, a city filled with students who strived to become powerful espers and were brought into conflict by the appearance of sorcerers.

Main characters[]

Tōma Kamijō (上条 当麻, Kamijō Tōma)

Voiced by: Atsushi Abe^[1] (Japanese); Micah Solusod (English)^[2]

Main article: Toma Kamijo

Tōma is the main protagonist of A Certain Magical Index and an important side character in A Certain Scientific Railgun. He tends to stay away from trouble but possesses a strong sense of justice. He is an average student and knowledgeable about certain subjects yet is a failure in his esper studies. While he is an idealist for the hopes of other people, ironically he is cynical about himself possibly because of his powers.

It has been suggested that this section of this character be split out into another article titled Index (A Certain Magical Index). (Discuss) (August 2021)

Index (禁書目録 (インデックス), Indekkusu)

Voiced by: Yuka Iguchi (Japanese); Monica Rial (English)^[2]

Index Librorum Prohibitorum ("List of Prohibited Books"), is one of the main heroines from the magic side and the titular character of A Certain Magical Index. She is a young nun from Necessarius (必要悪の教会, Hitsuyōaku no Kyōkai, "Church of Necessary Evil"), a branch of the Church of England. Index is small in stature and has a petite build. About 15 years old, she has thigh-length, silvery-blue hair with very white skin and large green eyes. She also wears a white robe with golden embroidery sewed onto every edge of it, the Walking Church, that prevents any injury on her, but it is later destroyed by Tōma when he touched it with his right hand, which is why her uniform is stitched with golden pins. Her mind has been implanted with the 103,000 magical texts of the Index Librorum Prohibitorum as she possesses photographic memory, which makes sorcerers wonder if she really is human because just one grimoire is poisonous to the mind, and one is more than enough to kill a person without the proper preparative.

Her sorcery name is Dedicatus545, "The devoted lamb protects the knowledge of the strong" (献身的な子羊は強者の知識を守る, Kenshinteki na Kohitsuji wa Kyōsha no Chishiki o Mamoru). The Church says that the grimoires take up 85 percent of her mind, so she only has 15 percent of memory space left to use in daily activities, which allows her to live normally for less than a year. However, all of this is revealed to be a lie after Tōma begins to question how the Church even got to numbers like 15% and 85% and finds out from his teacher Komoe that the human mind can store an unlimited amount of memories up to 140 years at least. This was purposely done as the Church planned to make the Grimoires harder to access by telling their underlings to perform "maintenance" on her mind in exactly one-year intervals once her memory has come to its "limit"; that way, she will not remember her close friends and accidentally and/or purposely reveal the contents of the Grimoires.

When she is being invaded by outsiders or injured, her self-protection system personality, John's Pen (自動書記 (ヨハネのペン), Yohane no Pen, "Automatic Writing"), will be activated to allow her to use magic to cast high-class magic attacks such as St. George's Sanctuary (聖ジョージの聖域 (セントじょーじのせいいき), Seinto Jōji no Seīki, "Sanctuary of St. George") and Dragon's Breath (竜王の殺息 (ドラゴンブレス), Doragon Buresu, "Killing Breath of the Dragon King"). Her self-protection system will use the Feather of Light (光の羽, Hikari no Hane) to force a reset on Index's own memory should a manual reset fail to be performed. Although she does not know that she has magical powers, she can easily identify the types of magic by seeing it or somebody describing it to her and know how to counter them. Her vast knowledge of the Index Librorum Prohibitorum within her mind makes her be one of the most powerful characters so far and becomes very helpful to her friends in various situations using skills like Spell Intercept (強制詠唱 (スペルインター��プト), Superu Intāseputo, "Force Chant"), and Sheol Fear ((魔滅の声 (シェオールフィア), Sheōru Fia, "Voice of Destruction of Evil").

She is often elated by a variety of things and is slightly ignorant and curious about modern technology. She usually is gentle and polite with people and has a kind nature, but is also a selfish spoiled brat when together with Tōma. She is also abusive towards him and hypocritical in nature, chiding him for doing things she doesn't like, yet does the same things herself. She constantly jumps to conclusions without learning the circumstances first and constantly punishes Toma, wrongfully, by biting him or starting arguments with him, much to his confusion and exasperation. She also has a large appetite and uses any excuse to get food from anyone and likes watching an anime series called Magical Powered Kanamin. She has strong feelings towards Tōma and even confessed her love after hearing Tōma lost his memories because of her; however, he avoided answering by changing the theme of the talk since he has no idea about what kind of feelings he used to have with Index.

When she returns to England, she is sought out by Fiamma who wants her knowledge and reactivates John's Pen mode through her remote control spiritual item. Later during her stay at Necessarius Headquarters at St. George Cathedral, she learns the bitter truth about Tōma when Fiamma reveals Tōma lied to her about his memories, which sends her on a rampage and grows angelic "Crimson Wings" and corners Stiyl (who tries to restrain her) with ease just by flapping her wings. She also has displayed the ability to summon legendary weapons and artifacts to attack, such as the "Sword of Freyr", the magic sword of the Harvest God from the Norse Mythology. After defeating Fiamma, Tōma releases Index's mind from Fiamma's control, apologizes to her, and both promise each other to meet again. At the end of volume 22, she returns to St. George Cathedral with Stiyl to learn what happened to Tōma.

In New Testament, Index eventually reunites with Tōma when he reappears in Academy City after the events of the Third World War.

Mikoto Misaka (御坂 美琴, Misaka Mikoto)

Voiced by: Rina Satō (Japanese); Brittney Karbowski (English)^[2]

Main article: Mikoto Misaka

Mikoto is one of the main heroines from the science side in A Certain Magical Index, as well as the main protagonist and the titular character of A Certain Scientific Railgun. She is Academy City's #3 Level 5 esper with an ability called Railgun (超電磁砲 (レールガン), Chō-Denjihō (Rērugan), lit. "Super Electromagnetic Cannon") that allowed her to produce one billion volts of electricity, making her the most poweful Electromaster in Academy City.

Accelerator (一方通行 (アクセラレータ), Akuserarēta)

Voiced by: Nobuhiko Okamoto (Japanese); Austin Tindle (English)

Accelerator is one of the main characters in the science side in A Certain Magical Index, as well as the main protagonist and titular character of A Certain Scientific Accelerator. He is the most powerful esper in Academy City, ranking at the top of the seven Level 5s in the city. His real name is unknown, though Accelerator recalls his surname was composed of two kanji characters and his given name consisted of three kanji characters. First appearing as an antagonist of the third light novel, he later becomes the main protagonist in the science side of the Toaru Majutsu no Index series in a notable number of volumes of the light novels.^[3] His name is written as "Ippōtsūkō", meaning "One-Way Road". His eponymous ability allows him to control any vector he touches including motion, heat, electricity, and wind. This allows him to perform various feats such as reflecting bullets, launching heavy objects, and even reversing the flow of blood in people's bodies. Since his natural ability blocks all ultraviolet radiation, he has an appearance with white hair.

Accelerator's unique ability makes him the subject of an experiment attempting to create the first Level 6 esper: according to the city's best supercomputer, Tree Diagram (which was unprecedentedly destroyed by Index's Dragon Breath), this feat could only be achieved by killing Misaka Mikoto, the Railgun, 128 times without a single failure. Since it was impossible to procure 128 Railguns, an alternative plan was formed to "level up" Accelerator by having him kill 20,000 skilled Level 3 espers: the Misaka clones. He willingly joins the experiment to gain a reputation as the most powerful and feared esper so that no one would be foolish enough to challenge him. His desire to achieve this goal leads him to kill many who got in his way. Mikoto tries to stop the experiment to save her sisters, but it is Tōma who finally does so and defeats Accelerator after discovering his weakness: Accelerator was physically weak because of his total reliance on his powers and his overconfidence in his esper abilities. Therefore, Tōma beat him with his Imagine Breaker and street-fighting skills.

After his defeat in volume three of the light novels, he reappears in the fifth novel where his past was also revealed. He was taken to Academy City at a young age when his powers were first discovered but because of the lack of understanding of his powers, people fear him and in some cases tried to kill him. Due to the many attempts on his life and the numerous experiments performed on him, these events shaped Accelerator into a sadist and made it difficult for him to trust anyone except for Kikyou Yoshikawa, the only scientist who ever cared about him and saved his life. He also takes a more heroic and fatherly role by protecting a young girl named Last Order, the last Misaka clone who believes through the memories of the Sister clones who fought him that Accelerator is not a bad person and actually never wanted to hurt the clones but tried to merely intimidate them into not fighting him, a theory Accelerator dismisses. In the aftermath of the incident, Accelerator is shot in the head by Ao Amai and acquires aphasia due to brain damage. The injury also affects his ability but Heaven Canceller jury-rigs a choker-like device to his brain, allowing Accelerator to tap into the Misaka Network to make up for his injury and function normally. He can also switch the transmitter to full power, restoring his ability for a maximum of 15 minutes in the beginning, but the time is later extended to 30 minutes by an update to the device. Toward the end of volume 13, Accelerator begins to "awaken" after nearly being killed by Amata Kihara and his aphasia is somehow temporarily cured. He truly "awakens" in volume 15, gaining black wings when fighting another "awakened" level 5, Teitoku Kakine. In the events of the 19th novel, he meets Aiwass, a higher dimensional being, summoned to their plane of existence. Aiwass explains to him when AIM entities like him are manifested, Last Order is heavily strained and may die if left untreated. To help Last Order, who has collapsed from sustaining Aiwass, Accelerator follows Aiwass's advice and heads to Russia during World War III in search of Index, unaware that he has met her before.

In Russia, after being ambushed by Russian mages, he acquires the "Goatskin", a mysterious document sought after by both Academy City and the Russian government that has the knowledge about the Archangels and Heaven, and later runs into a Misaka Worst clone, learning that Aleister intends to eliminate Last Order, now obsolete to create a new Misaka network. Despite being more powerful than Misaka Worst, Accelerator is unable to bring himself to harm another Sister clone after the Level 6 experiment and becomes mentally unstable after the clone attempts to kill Last Order and later tries to kill herself. Accelerator goes on a rampage until Tōma arrives where he turns his frustration regarding Last Order's condition onto Tōma and a fight ensues between the two. After Accelerator is defeated again, Tōma uses his Imagine Breaker to stabilize Last Order and leaves a note informing him of Index's true whereabouts. Later, he joins forces with Elizarinian soldiers and Misaka Worst to find spies in their country and fought Archangel Gabriel along with Hyōka, where after studying the Goatskin, he learns to understand the angel's language and turning himself into an angel as a side effect. With his new powers, he is able to decode one of Index's songs and was finally able to cure Last Order but is injured in the process.

After the Third World War, Accelerator is given his freedom with the help of Shiage, after he threatens the Academy City's administration to leave him, Last Order, and Misaka Worst alone and orders them to stop all illegal black projects in the city. However, both he and Shiage actions anger a new group of espers called the "Freshmen" who are aware of the existences of Magic and sees them as an obstacle in Academy City's war against the Magic factions. After being helped by Tōma and Leivinia Birdway, the latter invites him to join the world of Magic and involved in an operation in Hawaii.

At the end of Coronzon story arc, Accelerator received a master code list for Academy City, and the full authority of the Board Chairman from the dying Aleister Crowley, become the new Board Chairman of Academy City.

Shiage Hamazura (浜面 仕上, Hamazura Shiage)

Voiced by: Satoshi Hino (Japanese); Clifford Chapin (English)

Shiage is one of the main characters in the science side in A Certain Magical Index. He is a former member of Skill-Out, a group of Level 0s who use various means to counter esper abilities, who accidentally gets caught up with the Dark Side of Academy City. He is first introduced in the Side Story novels where he became the leader of his Skill-Out gang after Accelerator killed the former leader, his best friend Ritoku Komaba on the orders of the Board of Directors. On the same day he became the new leader, his gang was forced by the Board of Directors to kill Mikoto's mother, Misuzu, or face extermination. However, he and his gang were defeated by Tōma and Accelerator and they failed to kill Misuzu. Humiliated, he left the gang to his friend Hattori Hanzo and became a chauffeur and informant for Team ITEM where he fell in love with one of their members, Rikō Takitsubo.

During the 15th novel, Team ITEM is involved in a war between the various underground organization where Shiage helps them by providing transport by stealing cars around the city. But when Team ITEM is defeated by Team SCHOOL led by its leader, Teitoku Kakine, Shizuri Mugino, the leader of Team ITEM, wants revenge for being humiliated no matter what and forces an injured Rikō to use her powers to find Teitoku despite the fact that repeated use of her powers will kill her. In order to save Rikō, Shiage fights against Shizuri and despite the odds, he manages to defeat Shizuri by using her pride and powers against her. However, this unexpected incident becomes a thorn in Aleister's plans as there was no way Shiage could defeat Shizuri as she is a Level 5. Seeing him as an unpredictable anomaly that will disrupt his future plans, Aleister puts a bounty on Shiage and orders the forces of Academy City's dark side to kill him. Ironically, he is saved by Shizuri, who survived their battle and now has a sense of twisted love for him (declaring she will castrate him as her sign of affection). She lets him and Rikō escape Academy City by stealing a jet and shoots down his pursuers, declaring that he is her prey and hers alone.

Shiage and Rikō escape to Russia only to find themselves in a war between Academy City and Russia. After being saved by Acqua of the Rear, Shiage and Rikō head to the nation of Elizarina where Rikō is partially healed by Accelerator and aids Acqua. In order to protect a document called the Kremlin Report, Shiage and Rikō head towards the same nuclear military base that Mikoto went to while they were being chased by Academy City forces and later Shizuri. However, Shizuri collapses from over-exhaustion as her fragile body is suffering from the effects of using too much Body Crystal, a dangerous drug that Rikō uses to activate her powers. Unable to see her this way, Shiage begs Shizuri to let go of her pride and see reason and be the Shizuri that use to care for her teammates which strokes a cord within her and makes peace with him as she protects him and Rikō from the rest of the invading Academy City forces. After capturing a member of the Board of Directors who led the Academy City forces and torturing him, he reveals to Shiage a document called the Parameter List, which reveals that the Academy City administration has been secretly interfering with the Power Curriculum Program and preventing most of the city's students from gaining or raising their powers.

After the Third World War, Shiage is given amnesty and the assassination order on him removed thanks to Accelerator and makes a deal with the Academy City's administration, where he will not expose the truth about the Parameter List and he, along with Rikō and Shizuri is allowed to return to Academy City to reform Team ITEM. However, his and Accelerator's actions have made them enemies with a new group of espers called the "Freshmen" who is aware of the existence of Magic who sees both of them as an obstacle in Academy City's war against the Magic factions. After Tōma and Leivinia help him and Accelerator against the "Freshmen", Tōma introduces them to the world of Magic and involved in an operation in Hawaii.

Motoharu Tsuchimikado (土御門 元春, Tsuchimikado Motoharu)

Voiced by: Anri Katsu (Japanese); Newton Pittman (English)

Motoharu Tsuchimikado is a blonde-haired teenager and is always seen wearing sunglasses and an Aloha shirt. He is one of Tōma Kamijō's best friends and classmate who lived next door in the same dormitory as his. He calls him "Kami-nyan" and often ends his sentences with 'nya' (the Japanese equivalent of 'meow'). He unashamedly has a crush on his stepsister Maika Tsuchimikado, earning him the alias "Siscon Sergeant" (シスコン軍曹, Shisukon Gunsō). While he seems like an average student, Motoharu is a magician from Church of England's Necessarius, and a freelance spy for them, Academy City, and other unknown organizations. The leaders of both Necessarius and Academy City are both aware of his occupation but they decide to not take action. His sorcery name is Fallere825, "The backstabbing blade" (背中刺す刃, Senaka Sasu Yaiba).

Motoharu uses magic skills that were based on Onmyōdō since his clan was descendants of Abe no Seimei and undergoes Academy City's Power Curriculum Program, giving him a Level 0 esper power called Auto-Rebirth (肉体再生 (オートリバース), Nikutai Saisei (Ōto Ribāsu), lit. "Body Regeneration") that allowed reparation of his damaged blood vessels. These make him the only successful magician-esper hybrid, but he decides to not use magic often, except for desperate situations, because it causes excruciating pain in his body and his esper power might fail to heal him at any moment. Motoharu is originally tasked by the church to infiltrate Academy City, forcing Necessarrius members Tōzu Ashiya and Bishu Urabe to change their surnames, and act as his father and mother respectively for his successful entry without raising suspicions. His stepmother is the one who recommended him to adopt a sister, eventually picking up Maika from an orphanage outside the city. Despite the efforts, he is exposed within 36 hours and becomes a double agent for Academy City to ensure his survival. He is a member of one of Academy City's dark side organizations called "GROUP" until the end of World War III.

Motoharu is officially debuted in the Angel Fall story arc when he investigated the spell called "Angel Fall". After he discovered about Tōya Kamijō's involvement in its activation, Motoharu says that someone needed to be sacrificed for the spell's nullification but Tōma disagrees, causing a scuffle between the two. After their fight, he reveals his plan of using magic despite its side effect on his body. He casts a powerful spell to destroy Kamijō's residence where the souvenirs' arrangement in feng shui caused the Angel Fall's activation. He survives because of his esper power that healed his internal body's damage. Motoharu also plays a major role in the Daihasei Festival story arc when he worked with Tōma and Stiyl Magnus to deal with an artifact called Croce di Pietro. He assists in finding Oriana Thomson's location by casting a spell called All-Around Reality Circle (理派四陣, Rihashijin). During their confrontation against Oriana in Academy City's District 23, Motoharu is knocked down earlier by her trap spell. In Document of Constantine story arc, Motoharu and Tōma infiltrate Avignon for their mission to stop worldwide anti-Academy City protests by destroying the artifact called "C-Document". During the Battle Royale story arc, Motoharu and his team GROUP are tasked to stop SCHOOL and BLOCK's rebellion. He and Awaki Musujime arrive at District 13 to stop a computer virus' leakage throughout the Internet. He is later knocked down by Megumi Teshio during their fight inside District 10's Reformatory. In the DRAGON story arc, Motoharu learns from a retrieved Tweezers about the existence of another organization called "DRAGON". He loses consciousness when Aiwass manifested in front of GROUP.

In New Testament: A Certain Magical Index light novel series, Motoharu primarily debuts in the Agitate Halation story arc when he learned about a plan to use Maika as leverage against his investigation of the Agitate Halation Project. He decides to fake her death by burning her dormitory and proceeds on investigating the individuals behind the project. He also tricks Tōma from not intervening in his plan by sending him to School Garden to investigate the presence of a magician there. Motoharu finds Hisako Yakumi as a person of interest but she manages to convince him of her innocence from the project. He later confronts Tsugutoshi Kaizumi and Seria Kumokawa about their involvement in the project as well. As the two fight, Motoharu casts an infection-type spell on Seria called Shrine Visiting at the Hour of the Ox (丑の刻参り, Ushi no Koku Mairi). He is later defeated by Tōma, who discovered his trickery on him. After the events surrounding the Agitate Halation Project, Motoharu is fake killed by Seria using a handgun with paint rounds. He is officially considered dead on paper by Academy City. Motoharu is last seen in Tahiti with Maika after he separated from Aleister Crowley's group that invaded London to defeat Coronzon.

He is a funny individual and notices Tōma's misfortunes, but he confesses about being a pervert, lolicon, masochist and other fetishes, and enjoys being punished by Komoe Tsukuyomi. Pierce is frequently seen with Motoharu Tsuchimikado but if Tōma is included then they form the "Idiot Trio" of their class because they have the lowest test scores and often are required to attend their remedial lessons, although he mentions that he purposely failed his tests for Komoe's punishment.

Her power is eventually restrained after she wore a Celtic cross necklace given by the Necessarius. After the events, Aisa moves into Komoe Tsukuyomi's apartment and transfers from Kirigaoka Girls' Academy to Tōma's high school.

She is Academy City's #5 Level 5 esper with an ability called Mental Out (心理掌握 (メンタルアウト), Shinri Shōaku (Mentaru Auto), lit. "Psychological Control") that used remote controls hidden in her sling bag to execute her mind-related powers such as mind read, telepathy, brainwashing, psychometry, and memory erasure. However, her power has setbacks such as she cannot use it on Electromasters, animals and machines, and especially Tōma Kamijō. Misaki does not trust anyone whose minds she could not read, except for Tōma. She prefers to hide from the public so she sends her follower or a mind-controlled individual as her representative instead.

Misaki is involved in the Exterior Project that would greatly boost her power by cultivating a cut portion of her brain's cerebral cortex. She is then requested by researchers of the Clone Dolly Project to act as Dolly's missing friend aliased "Mi-chan" by altering her memories that would make Misaki the friend in her mind. Misaki eventually learns about the researchers' plan of disposing of her upon the Exterior's completion. She decides to brainwash the scientists involved in the project and take over the building.

Misaki's backstory makes a debut in the eleventh volume of New Testament: A Certain Magical Index light novel series when she bumped into Tōma for the first time at an intersection road during her early days as a first-year student. She then meets him several times during the summer and receives a cheap whistle from him to be used for emergencies, which she greatly treasured. Their meeting is short-lived when Misaki was targeted by an organization called "Deadlock", causing Tōma to get badly injured after he protected her from their attacks using his body. Misaki uses her power to manipulate his brain's fluids, which would cut off his sense of pain and lets the EMT continue treating him, but she finds her treatment ineffective because of his low blood pressure, leaving him brain damage that caused him unable to remember or make memories with her.

In the Ichihanaran Festival story arc, Misaki prevents Mikoto Misaka from taking a trial enrollment in Tōma's high school by making mind-controlled individuals chase after her. She then competes in a swimsuit contest against Seria Kumokawa. In the Agitate Halation story arc, Misaki helps Tōma in finding the magician who infiltrated the School Garden. She later joins Tōma in London along with Mikoto as he confronts the Golden Dawn magic cabal during the Coronzon story arc.

Sisters[]

Sisters (妹達 (シスターズ), Imōto-tachi (Shisutāzu), lit. "Little Sisters") is the collective term for Mikoto's clones produced by the Radio Noise Project (also known as Sisters Project). They are Level 2 or 3 espers with an ability called Radio Noise (欠陥電気 (レディオノイズ), Kekkan Denki (Redio Noizu), lit. "Flawed Electricity") that allowed them to generate at least 50,000 V of electricity but it cannot track electrons, therefore they use special goggles instead. This ability also turns their brainwaves into electric signals, allowing them to share their thoughts and memories within their communication network called "Misaka Network". The Sisters are quiet and emotionless as they speak monotonously in third person narrative while ending their sentences with a description of themselves. Since the termination of their projects, the clones eventually develop self-esteem and individuality and begin showing feelings towards Tōma as they share their memories with him throughout the network.

The Sisters are originally produced as efficient Level 5 combat clones for the military but the project result shows that they only achieved Level 2 or 3 instead. The clones are then reused in the Level 6 Shift Project as experimental subjects needed for Accelerator's shift into Level 6 by killing them. In the third volume of A Certain Magical Index light novel series, 10,031 clones have been killed in the experiment until Tōma and Mikoto intervene to stop the project, saving the last subject (Misaka #10032) before its termination. At the end of the Sisters story arc, the remaining 9,959 clones are sent to research facilities around the world for the readjustment of their body's life span while 10 clones stay in Academy City under Heaven Canceller's care.

She has soft spot for cats as she can pet a black kitten despite emitting EM waves from her body, which scared off them.

During the Sisters story arc, Misaka #10032 is the latest clone targeted by Accelerator for his experiment but their fight is interrupted by Tōma. She then provides him assistance for defeating Accelerator after his words about self-worth reflected her. After the termination of the Level 6 Shift Project, Misaka #10032 becomes one of the 10 clones who remained in Academy City for body readjustment.

She is to be a kind woman who treats Index like a sister, but when Index's memories are erased by Necessarius, Kaori becomes a ruthless and silent woman as Index is unable to remember her and consequently distrusts her. After Tōma rescues Index and her current memories, she decides to let Index stay at Academy City as she feels Tōma can protect her.

The repeated failed attempts to make Index remember her after each memory erasure results in Kaori beginning to accept that no matter how much a person tries, no one can change their destiny.
