A Certain Scientific Railgun Vol 6

Despite Misaka's tireless efforts and her explosive confrontation with ITEM at Academy City's Pathology Analysis Laboratory, progress on the "Sisters" cloning project hasn't missed a beat. Something big is behind the Sisters, and the deeper Misaka digs, the less she understands. Out of options, Misaka finally resorts to a deadly gambit against the project's crowing achievement: the Accelerator himself. In her darkest moment, an unlikely hero emerges who may turn out to be Misaka's only salvation.

A certain unlikely hero... It's the first day of a new semester in Academy City. The day a mysterious transfer student appears at Touma Kamijou's school. The day Index makes her first friend. The day Mikoto Misaka meets Index for the first time and, caught between them, Kamijou again meets with misfortune. The day Kuroko Shirai witnesses the entire incident and becomes rather jealous of Kamijou. It's also the day Academy City is attacked by a certain magician. Transfer students, friends, and magicians--as magic and science clash and Academy City declares a state of emergency, Touma Kamijou's tale truly begins!

'" Kuriba Ryoko''s Doppelgänger--the by product of a cyborg experiment that may have generated a human soul--has run amok, and Misaka may be the only one who can stop it. Misaka''s unlikely team-up with the girls of Scavenger could be the key to uncovering the truth inside the Doppelgänger. The explosive conclusion to the Dream Ranker Arc! "'

'" Hokaze Junko, one of the top "handmaidens" of Shokuhou Misaki, has always blended into the background of Tokiwadai--an easy feat when you go to an all-girls'' school full of powerful psychics. But when a ghostly figure starts stalking her, Junko is suddenly the center of attention! As Junko investigates her stalker, she starts to learn new things about her classmates...and herself! "'

Throughout Academy City, the rumors are spreading like wildfire. People are finding mysterious envelopes containing free cash cards in and around the back alleys of the Seventh School District. Whipped up into a frenzy, the populace looks for as many cash cards as they can get their hands on, even if it means braving the perilous Skill-Out Territory, risking injury or worse by roving gangs of Level 0 thugs. Judgement is left with no choice but to step in... While Shirai and Uiharu try to crack the case and figure out who is behind the cash card chaos, Misaka decides to take to the streets herself... and soon gets embroiled in a disturbing scientific conspiracy the likes of which will rock her world to the core.

'" Accelerator Vs. Hishigata''s coffins! But what awaits beyond…? "'

STRANGE BEDFELLOWS While searching for answers and her missing "Sister," Misaka finds herself facing a new ruthless enemy who takes her mother and Uihara as hostages! But when this new foe accuses Misaka of crimes she never committed, Misaka is left wondering exactly who she's fighting and why. At least Kuroko and Saten are willing to help, despite their impaired memories...but even that isn't enough to get to the bottom of this mystery. Misaka may have to turn to a very unlikely ally for help!

'" Welcome to a world where mysticism and science collide, and supernatural powers are derived from either science or religion. At the heart of this world is Academy City, an advanced metropolis whose population is comprised mostly of students. The majority of students are enrolled in the city''s “Power Curriculum Program,” where they must learn to master their latent psychic powers. Out of several million students, only seven are deemed powerful enough to have Level 5 status. Meet Mikoto Misaka, the third most powerful Level 5 esper in Academy City. Together with her best friend Kuroko Shirai and the other members of Judgment, a student-run law enforcement agency, Mikoto delves deep into the dark heart of the scientific sprawl she calls home, and uncovers secrets she wishes she hadn''t!
