About A Certain Scientific Accelerator (via Funimation):
After rescuing Last Order and subsequently taking a bullet to the head, Academy City’s top-ranked esper rests in the hospital.

Now they’re taking on Disciplinary Action—an anti-evil coalition whose sinister plans threaten Last Order, Academy City, and even the entire world!
