Tokyo ESP

Tokyo ESP is an action-packed supernatural TV anime produced by Xebec, based on the manga by Hajime Segawa. Set in a near-future Tokyo where espers suddenly emerge, ordinary high schooler Rinka Urushiba gains the power to phase through solid matter, joining forces with the enigmatic Kyoutarou Azuma to protect the city. As a dangerous faction led by Yomi Isayama threatens to plunge Tokyo into chaos, the line between hero and villain is put to the ultimate test. Directed by Shigehito Takayanagi with series composition by Hideyuki Kurata, this thrilling blend of fantasy, action, and supernatural drama delivers non-stop excitement for fans of the genre.

Set against the bustling backdrop of modern-day Tokyo, this story follows Rinka Urushiba, an ordinary high school girl navigating the challenges of everyday life alongside her father, Rindou Urushiba. With finances tight and responsibilities weighing on her young shoulders, Rinka's world is grounded in a quiet, relatable reality. Everything changes, however, when a completely inexplicable sight stops her in her tracks on the way home from school — a penguin soaring through the urban sky toward the iconic Tokyo Skytree, accompanied by fish drifting through the air as if the laws of nature no longer apply. This bizarre encounter marks the beginning of Rinka's unexpected journey into a hidden world where extraordinary abilities exist just beneath the surface of ordinary city life. Blending coming-of-age drama with supernatural intrigue, the series invites viewers into a Tokyo that is far stranger — and more wondrous — than it first appears.
