[...] 1. I initially found Kuroko’s antics rather annoying, especially the shower scene, which I thought was unnecessary pandering. Nonetheless, I’ve taken a liking to her character after watching the episode. It’s her interaction with Mikoto that make this show the fun that it is. [see Rainbowsphere's post here] [...]

The manga is currently on limbo like Index’s. Since both stories are still ongoing, it’s still a question as to when they’ll be resuming.

Given the pace of the events in the episodes I wonder how many episodes they are aiming?
I’ve only read up to the Level Upper arc.. I don’t even think the manga is finished yet?

I am expecting the Level Upper arc’s Investigation phase, where she gets to battle some high level Abilityless-turned-Espers. She was bit compromised, but she had a lot of things in mind. Plus her use of teleportation is upped to a level you wouldn’t even imagine being used.

So yeah, this isn’t final. Let’s see how Kuroko ruins the show for the meantime.

Give Kuroko some time. I didn’t understand why the director felt the need to go so totally overboard with her in episode 2, but she has many more sides to her than just the yuri-nator. _Especially_ when you’re an action fan, look forward to her. She has some of the best fights and action scenes.

In other words, she’s not as one-dimensional as the first two episodes indicated. You’ll see

Index sported an air of seriousness, come to think of it. There wasn't much to balance the story from being lively to being directly involving to the plot. Okay, maybe the beach arc is something else, but there's still plot involvement, nevertheless. Maybe Railgun is trying to even things out, concerning its is a similar yet different perspective of the elements from Index. But let's put Index aside. Yes, Kuroko's entertaining, and I found some people saying she shouldn't be taken seriously, or criticized because of her character. She's literally walking on a tightrope, wherein she has the tendency to either ruin the story, or elaborate more on it. I'll take the latter, since I'm not some moeletist hell-bent on spotting moe on shows and ending up happy about it.

I’d say Kuroko is a gigantic bay leaf then. It’s so large it pushes all of the other ingredients out of the pot and what do we end up with? A big fat soggy bay leaf…

I’ve come to the conclusion that Kuroko’s like a bay leaf. Yes, you COULD make a stew just as well without her… but then it would be missing a certain something, a hint of floral aroma or the slightest shift in taste. You say that the show would go on without her, but I wonder, would it be nearly as entertaining?

Nice post. Cheers.
