Well after finishing Toaru Majutsu no Index, I was kind of saddened, as it is a very unique anime and an interesting one as well, and it came to and end, only to find out that it had a second season, and a spin-off that is airing it's second season, with each season consisting of 24 episodes, I've now got an extra 48 or so episodes to watch and counting.
Anyhow, since I've finished Season 1, I guess I can give my opinion on the series.
Toaru Majutsu no Index is definitely an anime to watch. The characters are humourous and lovable, the plots are usually very interesting, and the twists will send chills down your spine. You can search up the plot yourselves, since recalling it is kind of long.
Touma, the main character is your generic Anime Hero, never backs down, always fights no matter what, but the thing that makes him different in my opinion is that he is usually dragged into things, and he forces himself to fight, it's not his duty per se, but he just does it, to protect Index, who herself can fight when needed to.
The one thing I really liked about the Anime was how Touma is meant to be the weakest person in the whole of Acadamy City, but his power is to block and absorb any other power, no matter how powerful with his right hand. This is interesting as some of the most powerful people in the Anime can't defeat him, he even goes up against the most powerful person in the Anime, and that episode is really good.
The one thing I disliked about it was that the episodes ended on annoying cliffhangers, and this only occured after episode 10 or so, usually they'd end with him saying "Such Misfortune" and the episode would close, but after that, the episodes had annoying cliffhangers that sort of made me hate forcing myself to watch the next episode, just to see what happens. I also didn't like how half the time there would be people speaking, in Japanese, music playing, in Japanese and then other people trying to talk, in Japanese, meaning my screen was full of Subtitles that I couldn't read in time to understand everything, and this was really annoying sometimes.
Still, apart from that the Anime is very good, and I'd recommend it to anyone who like Comedic Action Animes, with a subtle love plot in there.
