The hugely popular anime "A Certain Magical Index." It is a science fiction anime set in Academy City, where magic and science intersect. While all the series have been extremely popular, a new series, "A Certain Scientific Accelerator," is scheduled to begin airing in the summer of 2019. The story of this series revolves around Accelerator, a particularly popular character from the "A Certain" series. This article provides a detailed explanation of "DA," the secret society that appears in "A Certain Scientific Accelerator." Be sure to check it out before the anime airs!
The anime will start in July! What is the story of "A Certain Scientific Accelerator"?
The setting is the same as the previous work, "Academy City". Among them, there are only seven "espers (level 5)", and "Accelerator", one of them, is the strongest esper in Academy City. However, he suffered brain damage when he saved "Last Order". As a result, he is currently hospitalized.
Here he meets DA
One night, an intruder appears at the hospital where Accelerator is hospitalized. It is the magician girl Estelle Rosenthal, and the mysterious organization "DA" that is targeting her. DA is made up of armed "security guards (anti-skills)" and they are repelled by Accelerator. Furthermore, the magician girl Estelle says that "DA" is trying to use "Uihime" and the other "sisters" for some kind of plan. From here on, the commotion develops again.
Detailed explanation! What kind of organization is "DA"?
Officially, it is an organization of security guards, and stands for "Disciplinary Action." However, in reality, it is a secret society started by security guards who were disciplined, and it is a group with a rather radical ideology that will use any means to realize their "justice," even committing murder to erase evidence of their activities. There are surprisingly many security guards and former security guards who agree with this ideology, and they receive information, funds, and technology from other powerful people, so they excel in both action and technical ability. However, because they are so radical, it is natural that they have many enemies. They were planning to use Estelle to do something, but their plan was thwarted by the dead book. Estelle also called them "security guard heretics."
Who is Estelle?
Estelle refers to a girl named "Estelle Rosenthal." She is the 23rd head of the Rosenthal family, who inherited a special necromancy technique. She used to help with hishigata research, but after the shock of losing her friend Hirumi, she escapes from the DA's pursuers in an attempt to correct her mistake. She is also a genuine kind-hearted person.
Introducing the DA members! ①Hisagata Mitsuhiko
From here on, I will introduce the main members of "DA". First, Hisagata Mitsuhiko is a staff member of Seion High School, whose catchphrase is "yeah". In the past, he participated in "Produce", a research project on the dark side of Academy City that used "abandonment", just like the "Induced Explosion Experiment for Analyzing the Laws of Runaway Ability" and the "May Project in the Dark". There are many details that are unknown, but it is an organization that investigates where "your own reality" resides, and they took the cruel method of cutting the brains of subjects to investigate them.
I cooperate with DA, but...
He cooperates with "DA" and provides the weapon "coffin" and is in charge of internal purges. He enters "DA" following the instructions of "DA" with his sister Hirumi, but his real goal is to achieve "perfect body and perfect brain", and he is simply using them. By the way, he is developing a giant weapon using the corpses of people with special abilities, and seems to use Estelle and has magic technology.
Introducing the members of DA! ② Nishio
Nishio is one of the members of DA and is a non-regular security guard who uses special equipment. He is a lowlife who is intoxicated with "justice". In the first episode, he followed Estelle to the hospital where Accelerator was and captured her. However, he was attacked by Accelerator and had to retreat after his prototype was crushed. After that, he was forced to take responsibility for the failure to capture Estelle and the prototype, and he met a tragic end.
Introducing the members of DA! ③Hisigata Hirumi
Hisigata Hirumi is a girl who is a co-researcher and the younger sister of Hisigata Mitsuhiko. Like Hishigata, she appears to cooperate with DA, but like her brother, she is just using them and does not seem to have any loyalty. Hirumi also has a goal of obtaining a "perfect body and perfect brain," but she is a girl with a lot of mystery. She was a friend of Estelle Rosenthal, who was forcibly brought here as an advisor for the experiment, and was the only one to have a close relationship with her. However, for some reason, she is currently connected to countless tubes.
However, she is involved in an accident
Hirumi dies in an accident. Estelle, who lost her friend, tried to revive her through necromancy, but she was possessed by an incompletely activated "Toukotsu" and revived. As a result, she did not revive, and a mysterious entity that was not a Toukotsu entered her body. Although she looked like a Hirumai, her insides were completely different. She is currently unable to speak, and communicates with Hishigata by tapping on walls and pointing at monitors. In addition, a monitor is connected to the tip of the countless tubes that are connected to her, and it seems that she can move this at will. This incident left Estelle in a great shock.
Summary about DA!
That was the explanation of the secret society "DA" that appears in "A Certain Scientific Accelerator"! It is said to be an organization made up of former security guards that adheres to "justice," but it turns out that it is a group with quite radical ideas. I think it will attract even more attention when the anime starts airing. I can't wait for summer!
