Ga-Rei Creator's Tokyo ESP Anime Slated for 2014
posted on by Jennifer Sherman
The January issue of Kadokawa's Monthly Shōnen Ace magazine is announcing on Tuesday that the anime adaptation of Hajime Segawa's Tokyo ESP manga is slated to premiere in 2014.
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 ending The Enchained Spiritual Beast Ga-Rei supernatural action series. Kadokawa published the eighth compiled book volume of Tokyo ESP on May 25.
