Toaru Kagaku no Railgun Episode 19

is the nineteenth episode of the Toaru Kagaku no Railgun anime series. It was first aired on February 12th, 2010.

Synopsis
Mikoto's nervousness can't be contained when morning came. Even Kuroko, who anticipates that day, is able to notice her anxiety.

The main reason for her nervousness was because it was Tokiwadai's Midsummer Festival, where the two dormitories of Tokiwadai Middle School open its doors to visitors as part of their yearly festivities.

The day starts with Mikoto and the rest of the boarders of Tokiwadai dormitory acting as usherettes, giving the booklet which guides them around the exhibits and activities inside. Everyone sans the Dormitory Manager wear maid costumes to tie in with their duties, and this was something Kuroko didn't let pass.

Mikoto receives a visit from friends Saten Ruiko and Uiharu Kazari, who are also interested to enter the dormitory of one of the most prestigious schools in Academy City. Uiharu declares that she enters an "limits-off" mode, where she becomes more energetic; she admits that going inside Tokiwadai's dormitory is an opportunity she can't afford to waste.

With the Electromaster to guide them around the dormitory, they visited the confectionary and ikebana exhibits and participated in embroidery. Later, they went to the cafeteria area and dined in the buffet prepared by the students.
