Misawa Cram School

Misawa Cram School (三沢塾) is a cram school or juku found in Academy City in the 17th School District. Unlike regular schools in the Toaru Majutsu no Index universe, it built to look more like a office building than a school. The school consists of two twin buildings several storeys in height, with a skyway built in the middle of it. The building contains elevators, a cafeteria and probably several classrooms, as well as a large office.

Many students of different schools attend Misawa Cram school.

Background
According to Stiyl Magnus, the school has degenerated into a cult that centers its worship on science, and had Aureolus Izzard taken over the school with Himegami Aisa held there as well. It is revealed that Aisa confined herself in the building willingly as so she could not attract vampires with her blood, which would ironically kill them. However, Aureolus needed vampires for his plan to cure Index of her apparent disability associated with her perfect memorization ability, as such Aisa willingly allows herself to be used to lure vampires to Aureolus, by periodically going outside.

Aureolus also created a seal on the entire building, rendering intruders unable to interact with its students and machinery. However, he can also force the students to interact with the intrudents, at which point the students that are under Aureolus' control will attack the intruders.

Deep Blood Arc
Teachers of the school first appear to escort Aisa from MacRonall Hamburger, which made Kamijou Touma - who just had recently met her in the restaurant - suspicious of them and Aisa. The actual school is later seen, after Stiyl recruits Touma into saving Aisa from Aureolus Izzard, after threatening Index if he didn't agree.

Inside, it is revealed that the Thirteen Knights of the Roman Catholic Church has been defeated by Aureolus. A corpse is found inside the building which makes Touma wonder on how the students don't see it. This leads Stiyl to tell him that the building is covered in a seal that puts them and the corpse in the inner side of a coin so-to-speak, while the students are on the outer side, which makes them unable to interact with them and the machinery in the building and vice-versa. The students are later forced into the inner side of the coin and attacks both Stiyl and Touma with a replica of Gregorio's Chant, though the core of the seal is eventually destroyed by Stiyl.

Later, Index herself gets involved in the predicament after she follows Stiyl's mana trail and is found by Aureolus and takes her in his office. The building is later razed temporarily by the remaning Knights of the Roman Catholic Church by using the original Gregorio's Chant; though the attack was reversed by Aureolus' Ars Magna and restores the building fully, he also severely weakens the Roman Catholic Church's power because of this.

After Aureolus' defeat, Misawa Cram School gets closed down.
