A Certain Scientific Railgun Manga Chapter 147 Now Available

Dengeki has announced that chapter 147 of the manga for A Certain Scientific Railgun is now available via their Dengeki Daioh September 2023 issue magazine for ¥700.

This chapter continues the First Year Arc, which, as its name implies, focuses on Mikoto Misaka’s first year at Tokiwadai Middle School. Further, this arc first began in chapter 131, following the rather lengthy Jailbreaker Arc.

Despite being a spinoff of the franchise’s origin point and still ongoing light novel series, A Certain Magical Index, A Certain Scientific Railgun is immeasurably more popular. Its anime adaption blew up, and its three seasons have been met with generally favorable acclaim, unlike Index and Accelerator.

This series follows Mikoto Misaka, the third-ranked Level 5 Esper of Academy City, alongside her close friends, Shirai Kuroko, Saten Ruiko, and Uiharu Kazari. The group finds themselves dealing with several issues plaguing the world’s Science side, as its title suggests.

• Every Opening for the A Certain Magical Index Anime Adaption
• Every Opening for the A Certain Scientific Railgun Anime Adaption
• Every Opening for the A Certain Scientific Accelerator Anime Adaption
• An Omnibus by Yen Press containing the 24 light novel volumes of A Certain Magical Index’s Old Testament series is launching later this year.
• The Full Vocal Song Collection for the first two Seasons of the Magical Index anime has been officially uploaded.
• A Certain Magical Index New Testament has been licensed by Yen Press

Chronologically speaking, the first season of Railgun occurs before the first season of Index, leading to intriguing encounters with that entry’s primary protagonist, Touma Kamijou, if one is aware of what particular plight his character faces.

The second season of Railgun runs roughly parallel to Index’s first season, with a certain arc even being told from two differing perspectives. Lastly, the third and most recent season, Railgun T, takes place somewhat parallel to Index’s second season, also depicting an Index arc from a new side.
