Production[edit]

Development[edit]

Kazuma Miki, the light novel editor, apologized to fans who attended the Dengeki Bunko Autumn Festival 2015 in October for not having a sequel to A Certain Magical Index II (2010) "yet".[46] He teased a possible third season in April 2016[47] and later asked fans to "wait a little longer" for its release.[48] At the Dengeki Bunko Autumn Festival 2017 in October, Miki confirmed the production of A Certain Magical Index III as part of several projects under "A Certain Project 2018".[49] In June 2018, J.C.Staff was confirmed to be producing the series, while Hiroshi Nishikiori and Yuichi Tanaka returned from the previous two seasons as the director and character animation designer, respectively. Hiroyuki Yoshino, who scripted A Certain Magical Index: The Movie – The Miracle of Endymion (2013), was confirmed to be the series composition writer, replacing Masanao Akahoshi.[50] Additional staff members from A Certain Magical Index and A Certain Scientific Railgun anime series were confirmed in August 2018 to be returning for the third season.[51]

Writing[edit]

Kazuma Kamachi, creator of Index franchise, revealed that there were initial talks to make the third sequel a reboot of the series. Miki said that the production committee decided in the end to adapt the remaining volumes for the new season since fans wanted the whole story to be completed.[52] The third season adapted the fourteenth to the twenty-second volume of the light novel.[53]

Casting[edit]

Atsushi Abe and Yuka Iguchi confirmed in October 2017 their return for the third season as Toma Kamijo and Index, respectively.[49] In June 2018, Rina Satō, Nobuhiko Okamoto, and Satoshi Hino were confirmed to be returning as Mikoto Misaka, Accelerator, and Shiage Hamazura, respectively.[50] Additional cast members were announced in September 2018, including Yoko Soumi as Elizard, Kei Shindou as Carissa, Sayaka Harada as Villian, Takehito Koyasu as the Knight Leader, and Toshiyuki Morikawa as Fiamma of the Right.[54]

Music[edit]

Maiko Iuchi of I've Sound was confirmed in July 2018 to be returning from the previous two seasons to compose the series.[55] Maon Kurosaki performed the first opening theme music titled "Gravitation", while Iguchi performed the first ending theme music titled "Eve of a Revolution" (革命前夜, Kakumei Zenya),[56] which were used from episodes 1 to 15. Kurosaki also performed the second opening theme music titled "Roar", while Iguchi also performed the second ending theme music titled "The Never-Ending Song" (終わらない歌, Owaranai Uta),[57] which were used from episode 16 onwards.

Marketing[edit]

A teaser trailer for A Certain Magical Index III was released at Anime Expo 2018 in July,[55] while a promotional trailer was released at the 94th Comiket in August.[58] The cast attended a stage event for the series at Kyoto International Manga Anime Fair 2018 in September.[59] A commercial video was released on the series' official website in October 2018.[60]

Reception[edit]

Theron Martin of Anime News Network graded A Certain Magical Index III 'B−', stating that it was "problematic" and being mishandled as compared to A Certain Scientific Accelerator (2019) and A Certain Scientific Railgun T (2020). He also noted its pacing and complicated story arcs but praised its delivery of "what has always made the franchise entertaining".[79] The series received heavy criticism from fans due to its "paltry" run and "wonky pacing", prompting them to send Nishikiori their hate messages.[80]
