A Certain Magical Index
Toaru Majutsu no Index · とある魔術の禁書目録
TV · Finished · Fall 2008 · 24 episodes · 23 min
Set in a city of scientifically advanced superhuman students, but in a world where magic is also real. Touma Kamijou’s right hand, the Imagine Breaker, will negate all magic, psychic, or divine powers, but not his own bad luck. One day he finds a young girl hanging on his balcony railing. She turns out to be a nun from the Church of England, and her mind has been implanted with the Index-Librorum-Prohibitorum - all the magical texts the Church has removed from circulation.

Reviews
The light novel adaptation where religion and science coexist as supernatural powers is ready to destroy illusions.
Magical Index really makes use of some interesting ideas, but overall, executes them poorly.
