Academy City is a Tokyo-adjacent municipality of two million students, ninety percent of whom are enrolled in courses that develop minor psychic abilities — pyrokinesis, electrokinesis, level-up gradations. Touma Kamijou is one of the lowest-rated students in the city and the only person whose right hand cancels any supernatural ability that touches it. A nun named Index, who has been hiding from the Catholic Church with a hundred thousand magical texts memorized inside her skull, falls onto his balcony one morning. Index reveals that the science city he was raised in is only half of the world he lives in.
