Toaru Kagaku no Railgun

Synopsis: The city of the academy full of students is at the forefront of scientific advancement and home to the Esper development program. The seven "Level 5" Espers are the most powerful in the city of the Academy, and in third parties are high school Mikoto Misaka, an electricity manipulator known as "The Railgun".

When strange incidents begin to occur throughout the city, she thinks that each crime is connected to the indescribable "higher level", a legendary device that supposedly increases the Esper level of its user. As the situation increases, it becomes apparent that there is more at higher level than the eyes, and that the city of the gym can be a much more distorted place than the glamorous utopia that seems to be.

Toaru Kagaku at Railgun focuses on Mikoto and his friends - and in the dangerous situations they are in - as they are caught in a matter of higher level. As Mikoto says, "There is never a moment of boredom in this city."
