This article describes the details of the setting in which Toaru Majutsu no Index and other stories in the Toaru series take place, that of an alternate Earth in the early 21st century.
Principles[]
World and Physics[]
This section requires expansion Sections uncertain - particle physics, quantum mechanics, fortune and fate/destiny, space, dimensions, substances and matter |
In terms of particle physics, some previously theorized particles are confirmed to be present and in certain cases, utilized in certain technology and supernatural powers, such as with gravitons.[1][2][3][4]
With regards to dimensions, excluding the phases, there are multiple dimensions beyond the standard perceivable ones which have been confirmed.[5][6][7][8] Some supernatural powers interact with and utilize these dimensions and phenomena tied to them, such as with Curtana's dimensional slicing and the debris produced by it,[7] and some require them to be taken into account, such as in the 11th-dimensional calculations used by Teleporters.[5][6][9]
Alongside conventional matter and substances, there are a number of substances which have been artificially created,[10] or are the result of supernatural powers and phenomena.[11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]
Microcosm and Macrocosm[]
This section requires expansion Connection between micro and macro, role in supernatural powers, Holism and others |
A key aspect of the Toaru universe is the connection between the microcosm and the macrocosm, which is crucial to the existence and mechanisms of supernatural powers.
Supernatural Powers[]
One of the most distinctive aspects of the Toaru universe is the existence of supernatural powers (異能の力 Inō no Chikara?) and abilities. These include both Esper abilities, derived from Personal Reality and associated with the Science Side, and Magic, derived from refined life-force as mana or other energies channeled into forms often based on religions, mythologies and folklore. There are also certain other powers which fall between or outside these two categories. Two examples of these are Imagine Breaker and World Rejecter, both powers which were crystallized from the collective wishes and desires of the world's magicians.[19]
The division between Magic and Science Sides is actually one which was drawn by Aleister Crowley using the Archetype Controller for his own purposes, and the supernatural powers and phenomena associated with the two separate sides all fall under a single unified system.[20][21] While they operate under different principles and risk a deadly rejection reaction when mixed,[citation needed] both magic and esper abilities involve the connection between the microcosm and the macrocosm.[citation needed]
Phases[]
- Main article: Phase
Various religions and the actions of powerful beings have resulted in various layers, known as phases, being laid down upon the world. The phases act like filters, distorting the world,[22] and often house energies and entities which can have a major impact if brought out into the main world.[23][24][25] Beyond the phases lies a Pure World of science, untouched by magic or religion.[22]
The collisions between the overlapping phases, as a result of their changing proximity and the use of magic, produce 'sparks', which have a thin but widespread influence on the world and its people, affecting fortune and misfortune.[26][27][28]
Time[]
With regards to temporal mechanics, there are no parallel worlds (world in this case referring to the universe or reality itself). Instead the world is a straight line, compared by Kamisato Kakeru[Notes 1] to a rubber string nailed onto a pachinko machine. Like a rubber string and like time or space, the world can stretch or contract. Partially due to this nature, there are a fair number of portions in the world that are unused, compared by Kamisato during his explanation of World Rejecter to being like the use of only ten frames when using sixty fps film, with no one noticing if subliminal footage was slipped into two or three of the leftover frames. The 'new world' which World Rejecter exiles its targets to is a region made up of unused space within the timeline.[29][30]
There are very few supernatural powers which can travel through or manipulate the flow of time; aside from the application of a Magic God's power,[31][32] only the Red Player, the White Player, and Alice Anotherbible are known to possess the ability to do so.[33][34] There are however a number of abilities which are capable of foreseeing the future. Due to the nature of some of these abilities, producing predictions based on calculations within a set of dimensions, while the predictions made by the ability might not be overturned normally, some abilities which use other dimensions in calculations, such as the 11 dimensional calculation Teleport, are capable of defying the predictions.[35] The power and existence of the Magic Gods can influence the rails of destiny, intentionally or not.[32] Alice's Live Adventures in Wonderland, which allows her to form connections between subjects during her adventures, can alter reality to change how events will play out, and in at least one case, her ceasing the bridging caused events to revert and play out as they would have done without her influence.[36][34][37][38]
Outer Space[]
This section requires expansion Outer space, celestial bodies/phenomena |
With regards to outer space and the universe beyond planet Earth, there are only a few minor differences between real life and the Toaru universe, mainly involving a few celestial objects which only appear in the latter, such as the Arrowhead Comet.[39] At present, there have also been no definitely confirmed extra-terrestrials.[40]
There are various spells which rely on the positions of the stars and other celestial bodies in order to function,[41] and a few very powerful beings are capable of manipulating them.[42][43][44][45][46]
Classifications and States of Being[]
This section requires expansion Classification of entities/states of being |
Life and Death[]
This section requires expansion Life, death, cycle and connection between the two, soul, ghosts, afterlife and reincarnation, immortality, taboos |
There are various aspects of the Toaru universe and subjects within it that are related to life and death, as well as the cycle and connection between them.
The boundary between life and death is not clear cut, but there is a definitive line somewhere in that boudary and once that line has been crossed, one cannot restore a life that has been lost without a power capable of rewriting the world.[47][48] There are a number of beings who are or have achieved a form of immortality, and a few beings which exist in a state in between life and death.
There are various beliefs and theories concerning the existence of the soul and what happens to it when the body dies, but it remains a poorly understood subject on both magic and science sides. Among those who acknowledge its existence, some believe that a person's soul may move onto an afterlife realm (such as Heaven or Hell), or begin a new life in a cycle of reincarnation, while others posit that it is destroyed when the body it is tethered to dies.[49][50] Various stories hold that some spirits that haven't passed on remain in the world as ghosts.
There are multiple fields, both magical and scientific, that are connected to life and death, and there are taboos associated with them on both sides of the world.
Planet Earth and Humanity[]
This section requires expansion Climate and weather, flora and fauna, linguistics/languages |
The states of planet Earth and humanity within the Toaru series are much like their real-life equivalents, but there are various differences, both major and minor. As well as differences resulting from circumstances deliberately planned as part of the story, there are differences as a result of changing circumstances in real-life over the long course of the series (with a greater amount of time passing outside the story than within it).[Notes 2][51][52][Notes 3][53]
The world's atmosphere, climate and weather are largely the same as in real-life, with global warming and climate change occurring.[54] In terms of flora and fauna, excluding products of magic and science, there are no major differences in the types of life forms or individual species living in the present day.[Notes 4][55][56]
The world's current population is somewhere around seven and a half billion.[57][58][Notes 5][59][60][61][62]
Geography[]
In terms of geography, countries are largely the same, though due to certain events, different countries have formed, such as the independent city state of Academy City in Tokyo, Japan[63][64], the Elizalina Alliance which split off from Russia,[65][66] the Condroniard Republic in Central America,[67] and the Dialine Empire in Eastern Europe.[68] There are also a few minor differences regarding landmasses, such as with Uphill Island.[69]
There are a notable number of small nations and micronations, with the Condroniard Republic being a member of the UN yet smaller than a football field.[67] The circumstances surrounding them became even more complicated in the aftermath of the Crowley's Hazards, with artificial islands and ship-towed floats set up as bases for reconstruction eventually starting to declare independence a few weeks later, resulting in a situation where countries were joining together and splitting apart in a relatively short space of time, such that problems arose noticing when a country's system or rulers were swapped out.[67]

Calendar[]
This section requires expansion Common Era, days/weeks/months, Gregorian and other, other |
While the exact years in which the main story of the Toaru series takes place have not been explicitly stated, the Toaru universe follows the same basic calendar structure as the real world, with Gregorian calendar's seven-day week, twelve months and Common Era year notation, with a few minor discrepancies.
Many real-life annual holidays, celebrations and other notable annual occasions are observed within the Toaru universe, including but not limited to; New Year,[74] Valentine's Day (バレンタイン・デー Barentain Dē?), White Day (ホワイトデー Howaito Dē?),[75][76] Golden Week (ゴールデンウィーク Gōruden'Uīku?),[77] summer vacation (夏休み Natsuyasumi?) (July 20th[78] - September 1st[79]), Halloween (ハロウィン Harōin?), Christmas.[80][81], and winter vacation (冬休み Fuyuyasumi?) (before December 24th[82] - around January 8th-10th in Academy City).[83][84]
Politics[]
There are a few differences with regards to politics. The G14 has been established, though its exact nature is currently unknown. There are also a few past enmities which have remained instead of fading, such as that between the United Kingdom and France, and a few different ties between countries.
Aside from regular governments, there are also the factions which make up the Magic and Science Sides. The main factions in the Science Side are Academy City and its cooperative institutions, while the Magic Side's main factions are the magical organizations within the major churchs, such as the Anglican Church's Necessarius, and various magic cabals. Many of these larger factions in the Magic and Science Sides exert an influence on the governments of the 'Normal Side' from behind the scenes.[52][66]
One of the most important aspects of this hidden side to the world is the treaty between Magic and Science, an agreement which prevents the two sides from using the other's techniques and interfering with the others' affairs.[85]
Religion[]
Various religions (宗教 Shūkyō?) that are present in real-life have also been featured in the Toaru series and for the most part, their distributions and beliefs have largely mirrored their real-life counterparts, though there are a number of differences. Many of them are connected to and utilized in magic, having played a key role in the formation of the phases, with numerous religious individuals and organizations involved in the Magic Side in some way, though there are plenty of religious followers and groups who are not associated with or even aware of the Magic Side. In addition to the religions currently actively practiced in real-life, there are a number of historical religions, practiced in the past but not in the present day and often tied to mythologies, that are practiced in the Toaru series, usually by certain groups on the Magic Side.
In terms of cults (カルト Karuto?), while there have been functional parallels depicted and described between real-life and in-story groups, few real-life cults have been featured or referenced within the series. While there are some cults on the Magic Side,[86][87] there are also many cults that are not part of the Magic Side,[86] and though the Science Side is normally non-religious,[88] there have been a couple of known science cults (such as the Ark of the Electronic Sea and the Cult of Science, though the latter was not considered a proper part of the Science Side).[89][88]
Companies and Corporations[]
This section requires expansion Companies/corporations/related |
While a few real-life companies have appeared within the Toaru universe, a lot of similarities in terms of companies, corporations and brands, come in the form of parallels and parodies rather than direct appearances.
Space[]
Aside from traditional rocket-based launches, other ways of getting into space have been developed and implemented. Due to the advent of air launching, which needs less land than multi-stage rockets, many new space programs have emerged, with smaller countries becoming able to start their own and many eager to prove themselves to sponsors.[90] There is also a different distribution of launches between launch providers due to various circumstances, such as the agreement between India and the United Kingdom.[91]
As well as the shuttles and rockets used by other spacefaring factions,[90] Academy City and its cooperative institutions also have access to mass drivers and space planes, and have constructed a working space elevator, Endymion.[92] Academy City has also maintained at least three major satellites in orbit,[93] including the Hikoboshi II and the now-destroyed Orihime 1.
There has been no colonization of other worlds, though plans have been made and technologies developed for a mission to Mars,[94] and technology with terraforming applications has been researched.[93] Humanity has yet to confirm the existence of extra-terrestrials.[40]
The field of space is one which has been a source of conflict between the Magic and Science Sides, being not well defined in the treaty between them.[41] There are various spells which rely on the positions of the stars and other celestial bodies in order to function,[41] and a few very powerful beings are capable of manipulating them.[42][43][44][45][46]
Other[]
This section requires expansion Setting miscellanea |
Chronology[]
- Main article: Unified Story Timeline
Though largely similar, the history of the Toaru universe has a number of differences, some due to the presence of supernatural powers, the scientific leaps brought about by Academy City and the various circumstances brought about by them, and some due to other circumstances. The years in which the series takes place aren't known exactly, though they are at some time in the early 21st century.
Notes[]
- ↑ In Toaru Majutsu no Virtual-On, it is stated that this view is also shared by the Academy City Board of Directors, who calls it the rubber string theory (禁書世界の時間論 Kinsho sekai no jikan-ron?, lit. Prohibited world time theory). However, due to the nature of the story as a crossover, it is unknown how canonical this is.
- ↑ For an example of differences in the in-series world resulting from changing real-life circumstances, the United Kingdom was still a member of the European Union when Toaru Majutsu no Index Volume 17 and Toaru Majutsu no Index Volume 18 were released in 2009, and thus was written as being a member in the story, but the real-life UK would leave the EU after the 2016 referendum while circumstances meant the in-series equivalent has remained as it was so far (including the anime adaptation released in 2018-2019).
- ↑ Another example of differences in the in-series world resulting from changing real-life circumstances, Kilauea was described as Hawaii's largest active volcano, as it was when Shinyaku Toaru Majutsu no Index Volume 3 was released in 2011 - the larger Mauna Loa (dormant at the time of the volume's release) erupted in 2022 and began a period of activity afterwards.
- ↑ There are at least a couple of prehistoric species in the Toaru series that are not found in real-life, although they are references or parodies of real-life extinct species (B-Rex for the T-Rex and Omegalodon for Megalodon).
- ↑ The figures given for the world's population in the Toaru series have gradually increased over time, possibly reflecting real world conditions. The earlier volumes give a figure of around six billion, with figures of between six and seven billion being given around the early part of Shinyaku Toaru Majutsu no Index, and the six billion mentions being phased out in the early second half. Around the end of Shinyaku Toaru Majutsu no Index, the figure given is seven and a half billion.
