Tachikawa, Tokyo, has announced a collaboration event with the third season of the A Certain Magical Index anime adaptation on November 9 and 10, 2024.
Details on the event have not been unveiled yet, but this isn’t the first time the region has collaborated with the IP, as it occurred with A Certain Scientific Railgun last year.
For now, new collaboration artwork has been revealed, showcasing Kuroko, Mikoto, Index, Touma, Komoe, Kanzaki, and Accelerator.

A Certain Magical Index originated as a light novel series before expanding into several other media, such as video games and manga adaptations. In fact, entire spinoffs have been birthed from Magical Index, including the significantly more popular A Certain Scientific Railgun.
Regardless, the Magical Index light novel is still ongoing, as it’s in the midst of its third series, Genesis Testament. The three seasons of the anime have adapted the first light novel series, known as the Old Testament. As of now, the second light novel series taking place right after the first, New Testament, has yet to receive an anime adaption.
- The eleventh volume of A Certain Magical Index Genesis Testament is available in Japan.
- A Certain Magical Index New Testament volume three is now available in the West.
- The second art book of A Certain Magical Index New Testament was announced.
While countless events and developments occur, A Certain Magical Index primarily follows protagonist Touma Kamijou, a high schooler residing in Academy City, a locale full of Espers. He is a Level 0, those whose Esper abilities are the lowest of the low.
However, Touma is different from the rest of the city since he seemingly has no latent Esper ability at all, instead possessing a mysterious power known as the Imagine Breaker in his right hand, which negates all supernatural phenomena. After meeting a young girl named Index, Touma ends up entangled in various plots involving the Science side and veiled Magic side of the world.
