Err... is this question for me?

Well...I'll try to make it simple.

ASCII Mediaworks owns Dengeki. Dengeki releases Toaru Majutsu no Index light novels under their Dengeki Bunko brand. Anime adaptations are used to promote source material. It costs money to make an anime. ASCII pays for anime adaptations for properties it owns. ASCII payed for the Index/Railgun anime series to be made. ASCII only has a limited amount of money to spend on anime. ASCII owns more properties than just Index. ASCII also owns: Sword Art Online, Accel World, Mahouka, Strike the Blood, Black Bullet, Durarara and other series yet to receive an anime adaptation. ASCII pays for anime adaptations in order for its source material to sell. ASCII wants this for all of its popular series. Index author's second series, Heavy Object, is getting an anime. Its not Index's turn right now.

Then there's all that jargon about market trends, data, timing and whatnot. Its possible we'll never see the anime's continuation. But its worth waiting out for one more year for any news because of the recent anniversary celebration. Apparently there's something left to wait for...

In the mean time satisfy yourself with this.

Next time post in the forums.
