Summary
Toaru Majutsu no Index Light Novel Volume 21 Cover scan.

"The cover for Volume 21. At this point, it became clear the Russia story would cover 3 volumes, so I decided to put the 3 main guys and their primary partner on the covers. ...So for Volume 21 it was Hamazura-kun and Takitsubo-san. I originally thought about putting privateer helicopters and tanks or maybe a group of Academy City powered suits in the background, but I decided Super Mugino would have the greatest impact!" ―Kiyotaka Haimura
