Background
Misaka Mikoto is a major character in Toaru Majutsu No Index and the main protagonist of Toaru Kagaku No Railgun. She is a Level 5 Esper and the strongest electromaster in Academic City.
She is the third ranked Level 5 esper in Academy City, and has been nicknamed Railgun due to her signature move. Kamijou Touma coined the nickname Biri-Biri (ビリビリ?) (a Japanese onomatopoeia imitating the sound of electricity), while in the English dub she is referred to as "Bug Zapper" (or more usually, simply "Zapper"), and whenever the two meet, he usually calls her that, even after his amnesia.
She often shows an incredibly immature and selfish side and displays heavy tsundere tendencies when her crush, Touma, insults her. To add to this childishness, she is inclined towards cute things, most specifically, Gekota and Kill Bear merchandise. She likes frog merchandise, but only if it features Gekota.
