With the latest numbers now in, it’s safe to say the A Certain Scientific Railgun anime is really popular amongst anime fans in China. According to a recent tweet from the official account, the series has been viewed over 300 million times on Chinese streaming platform Bilibili.

Back in January, users of the service named the latest entry in the Railgun anime, A Certain Scientific Railgun T, as their most anticipated Winter 2020 series. Despite delays related to COVID-19, it’s clear that enthusiasm never wavered.

Crunchyroll streamed the latest A Certain Scientific Railgun anime as it aired in Japan. Here’s the official synopsis:

Misaka’s electro-manipulation abilities—and delightfully destructive Railgun projectile move—make her a rock star in Academy City. The techno-metropolis is packed with supernaturally powered students known as espers, including Misaka’s flirty friend and roommate, Kuroko. In this city full of super-powered gangs, mad scientists, and monsters—there’s no shortage of action!
