A New Anime this fall 2013

Publisher Kadokawa Shoten revealed on its website that an anime adaptation of Hajime Segawa's Tokyo ESP manga has been green-lit. The science fantasy story begins with Rinka, an extremely poor high school girl who lives with just her father in modern Tokyo. One day, she is going home from school when she chases a "flying penguin" to the top of New Tokyo Tower — only to have "fish swimming in the air" suddenly appear before her. One of the fish goes through Rinka and gives her extraordinary powers beyond those of normal humans, particularly the ability to slip through solid objects.

Segawa launched the "afterschool psychic action" series in Kadokawa's Monthly Shōnen Ace magazine in 2010, shortly after endingThe Enchained Spiritual Beast Ga-Reisupernatural action series. Kadokawa is publishing the eighth compiled book volume ofTokyo ESP on May 25.

Ga-Rei's "afterschool underground spirit-hunting action" story inspired the Ga-Rei: Zerotelevision anime series in 2008. Funimation released this anime in North America.

Sypnosis: 

Urushiba Rinka was a fairly normal high school girl, though she was a bit poor and her only family was her father. Then one day, she saw a penguin and some glowing fish swimming through the sky. Rinka might have thought it was a hallucination if there hadn’t been another witness with her, a boy from her school with a strangely scratched-up face.

Contact with a fish caused her to pass out, and when she awoke, she had developed the power to move through inanimate objects… such as the floor of her apartment! Later, a call from her father showed her that she was not the only one the flying fish bestowed with hard-to-control superpowers! What exactly is going on here? And does Rinka’s classmate know more about this situation than he’s letting on?
