Well, Index herself has not made too much impact on any of the later stories, she's been used as a plot device but that's really it. What I mean is an arc like Deep Blood, where everything revolves around her, is lackluster compared to the epic plot twists in other arcs. That's not to say it's not a good read, it's just you could do better. I get the feeling that part of the reason Index was used in ECW and WW3 was so readers wouldn't forget her existence.
