* {{Irony}}: After being defeated by Touma, Accelerator [[spoiler:gets shot in the head]] defending Last Order, and Heaven Canceler supplements [[spoiler:the damage to his brain]] using the Misaka Network. This after he killed roughly half of them during the Level 6 experiments.

The Radio Noise project was originally devised to mass produce Level 5 esper clones of Mikoto Misaka, but only managed to produce level 2 and later level 3 espers. It was later retooled in the Level 6 shift project, which involved creating 20000 clones in order to force Accelerator to attain Level 6. After the project was stopped, several clones are still around after the project. This page details the most prominent ones.

* ArtificialFamilyMember: Clones of Mikoto Misaka who sees them as her own little sisters.

* YoungerThanTheyLook: All of them are basically toddlers as far as "years lived"; comes with accelerated growth.

* HiveMind: Each Misaka is an individual entity, but the story indicates that the network itself is alive and a will that uses the individual Misakas like you would use your hands and feet. Last Order is the [[HiveQueen administrator and superior]] of the Misaka network but is not the network itself. WORST is connected to the network, but is designed to act independently of it and not to be under the control of Last Order. Compared to all the normal Sisters, she thus has a great deal more autonomy and individuality.
* {{Irony}}: [[spoiler:After Accelerator gets shot in the head defending Last Order, Heaven Canceler supplements the damage to his brain using the Misaka Network. This after he killed roughly half of them during the Level 6 experiments.]]

* TalkingToHerself: In the dub, Mikoto, the MISAKA's, and Last Order are all voiced by the same actress, while in the original they had a unique actress for each. Of course, whenever any of the MISAKA's were talking to each other, they still counted for this trope.

* VerbalTic: "Nearly all Misaka's have a weird speech pattern where they explain their emotional state," says Misaka as she delightfully demonstrates this trope.

* ArtificialFamilyMember: Clones of Mikoto Misaka who sees them as her sisters.

* CutenessProximity: A mild variation when they see cute things is a little more expression although it's probably natural for Last Order.
* DesignerBabies: They were all genetically made to grow faster, so that they'd useful for the Project.

%%* GratuitousEnglish: The "Radio Noise" epithet.

* NarratingThePresent: "With the exception of Misaka WORST, all the Misaka clones state what they are doing or what is happening while they speak," says Misaka, while pointing to the helpful context.

The very first clone of Mikoto Misaka, a Prototype for the Misaka Network.. She was not part of the Level 6 Shift project, but was a prototype of the later clones. She appears in flashbacks in the Railgun manga, where she goes by the nickname "Dolly." The cloning process was still imperfect when she was made, so she can't survive without extensive cybernetic implants.

* GenkiGirl: She typically acts like a little kid on a sugar rush.

* OurAngelsAreDifferent: Due to the way angels work in this universe, it has the potential to become an angel in the same way the Level Upper network did. [[spoiler:This was done twice: With Kazakiri and with Mikoto.]]

* GhostMemory: [[spoiler:Misaki learns that another clone has the memories of Dolly and enlists Mitori to find her and wake her up together, but warns that just because she has Dolly's memories doesn't mean she ''is'' Dolly.

* {{Moe}}: She [[invokes this trope as part]] of her NarratingThePresent, which makes it an in-universe example of this trope. When asking Touma for help finding her goggles, she said that she made her eyes bigger to "suggest vulnerability", and when Touma suggested switching her necklace for a different one she took a melancholy posture while saying how she had "too many things taken from her already today".

!!Full-Tuning/Dolly/Misaka 00000

The very first clone of Mikoto Misaka, serial number 00000. She was not part of the Level 6 Shift project, but was a prototype of the later clones. She appears in flashbacks in the Railgun manga, where she goes by the nickname "Dolly." The cloning process was still imperfect when she was made, so she can't survive without extensive cybernetic implants.

* GhostMemory: [[spoiler:Misaki learns that Full Tuning has the memories of Dolly and enlists Mitori to find her and wake her up together, but warns that just because she has Dolly's memories doesn't mean she ''is'' Dolly. However, Dolly and Full Tuning shared memories to the point where Full Tuning identifies as Dolly herself, having spent her own real life asleep in a tube. So in a way it's like Dolly never died and Full Tuning never lived.]]

* TwinSwitch: Briefly, during the SportsFestival, she takes Mikoto's place in the games. [[spoiler:And gets kidnapped when Mikoto isn't paying attention.]]

* BlushSticker: ''Constantly''.

* IdiotHair: She's by no means an idiot though. Possibly intended to show her status as the "control tower" for the Sisters.

* TokenMiniMoe: Among the Sisters, which she claims was the result of being taken out of her incubator early.

* AlphaBitch: To the clones [[spoiler: and pretty much everyone else.]]
* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: She seems to be this way towards Accelerator. It doesn't help she doesn't like the 'Hero', [[spoiler:Touma Kamijou.]] In fact, [[IronicFear she is afraid of him because he never treated her sisters badly]].

* BadPowersBadPeople: [[spoiler: Her sole reason for living was based on this.]]
* {{Badass}}: From the short amount of time she's been in the story, she's shown to be one.
** Worst has more in NT, in volume 2, she pulls off a OneManArmy by [[spoiler: taking down a group of Freshmen, with a broken arm. And without Accelerator.]]
** Worst pulls off another by [[spoiler: taking out a bunch of guys, and jamming all the cameras]]. Clearly, she can, for the most part, handle herself.
* BelligerentSexualTension: With Accelerator.

* TheDarkSide: She often states that she lives for this.

* FemmeFatale: Oh yeah, big time.

* MoralityPet: [[spoiler: Strongly hinted to be Accelerator.]]
* MotiveRant[=/=]DarkAndTroubledPast: She kind of has a point, actually.

* NominalHero[=/=]SociopathicHero: She has no desire to help people or make friends. She only fights bad guys because she likes kicking ass and it's convenient for her to do so.

** Her and [[spoiler: Shiage]] counts too, especially in the middle of [[spoiler: NT volume 3.]]

** With Accelerator.
** Averted with [[spoiler: Touma]] and to a certain extent [[spoiler: Shiage.]]
* SlasherSmile: Just look at her, usually is seen sporting one.

* WomanInWhite: Shows shades of this, but more like WomanInBlack.

* {{Yandere}}: [[spoiler:Well she was pretty crazy for wanting to kill Accelerator, and even now, she's still got the AxCrazy persona, just toned down.]]

* EvilCounterpart: To Misaka Mikoto, Last Order, heck, pretty much all of the clones. [[spoiler:Well with Mugino's persona and Accelerator's old thought patterns planted into her, how can she not be evil?]]

* {{Yandere}}: [[spoiler:Well she was pretty crazy for wanting to kill Accelerator, and even now, she's still got the AxCrazy persona, just toned down. It doesn't help that she got her personality from Mugino.]]

* NarratingThePresent: With the exception of Misaka WORST.

* ShrinkingViolet: Grows out of this... sort of.

* AnnoyingYoungerSibling: To the rest of the Network, despite the fact that she's technically their superior. She has a similar dynamic with Accelerator.

* CheerfulChild[=/=]GenkiGirl: Unlike the other 20,000 Sister clones, she's quite capable of expressing emotions and is quite a cheerful girl. This is a big clue that she's not a "normal" Misaka clone.

* MoralityPet: [[spoiler:To Accelerator.]]

* CruelAndUnusualDeath: Killed by Accelerator dropping a ''train'' at her, but not before getting her leg violently ripped off by Accelerator.

* BuxomIsBetter: She's very proud of the fact that she has the most impressive bust of all her sisters, including the original. She trolls them about it, too, noting that since she was grown with different hormones there's no guarantee they'll be the same.

* LivingMacGuffin[=/=]MacGuffinGirl: As the central controller of the Sister network, she has been captured at least twice in an effort to upload a virus to all the other Sisters.

* HopelessSuitor: It's clear that she has a PrecociousCrush on Accelerator. It's just as clear that he doesn't reciprocate, instead viewing her as a little sister or even a daughter.

* SuperSoldier: All the sisters have the power of a level 2 electromaster and military training, as well as experience from over 10,000 battles with the strongest Esper in Academy City. One was able to use a Barret .50 cal on full auto. If they where put against anyone but Accelerator, they would win hands down.

* ShockAndAwe: The standard clones have a level 3 version of Mikoto's electromaster powers by the end of the experiments, while Misaka WORST is level 4.

--> [[spoiler:'''Misaka Worst''': Misaka was created in order to kill [Accelerator]. Misaka didn’t particularly want to be born, but she was forced to do so. In order to cut off the signals form Last Order, her skin was cut open and a bunch of strange sheets and selectors were embedded within. If it weren’t for you, none of that would have happened. If you hadn’t made that decision, Misaka would never have been born. And even if she had been, it would not have been in that way that cut off all chance for a future. ‘It hurts. Help.’ By the time Misaka learned those words, she was already in a situation where she could not say them. That is why Misaka has the right to blame you. That is why she has a reason to kill you.]]

* ExpendableClone: [[spoiler:Dolly and Full Tuning are actually two separate clones of the same type. Dolly was the experimental clone, while Full Tuning was the control. The researchers pumped Dolly full of all sorts of chemicals just to see what would happen, but Full Tuning was kept safe inside her cloning tube]].
* FakeMemories: [[spoiler:Full Tuning was given Dolly's memories after the latter died. Misaki warns Kouzaku that even though Full Tuning will remember them both if they ever find her, she's not Dolly]].
* FlawedPrototype: The cloning process wasn't perfected when she was made, hence the cybernetics.

* OnlyFriend: Apparently a girl named "Mi-chan," [[spoiler: (actually Kouzaku Mitori)]], and who apparently stopped visiting her after being freaked out by her implants. The researchers, who needed Dolly's emotional state stable for their experiments, requested that [[spoiler:Misaki]] use her powers to pretend to be this person. [[spoiler:Dolly quickly became Misaki's only friend, and soon after we find out that Dolly knew from the start Misaki wasn't Mi-chan.]]
* TinMan: Averted. She doesn't have any more difficulty displaying her emotions than a normal girl.

* WeHardlyKnewYe: [[spoiler:Apparently dies the chapter after she is introduced, which is also only a short time after she meets Misaki.]]

* CrocodileTears: In episode 18 of season 2, when Accelerator scolds her. [[BadLiar Flatout admits it]] too, of course, due to her VerbalTic.

* BerserkButton: Taking something from her will result in her pulling out her rifle and declaring "The time for revolution has come."
