According to the website of Kadokawa manga, manga "Tokyo ESP" will be adapted into anime. It is not yet known in which format the anime will be. The manga is currently serialized in Shounen Ace and is drawn by Segawa Hajime whose previous work is Ga-Rei. So far, seven volumes have been published and the eight volume will come out on May 25th.

Tokyo ESP on MAL
Sakana-sanFeb 22, 2016 11:53 AM
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

One of the manga that I enjoyed a lot until chapter 10 + where things get serious. Hopefully it'll be a tv series instead of just ova

Would watch. Hopefully not much fanservice in this. Ga-rei level fanservice with just barely-can-see-panty skirt was perfect.

Please leave replies on my profile page, as I am unlikely to see them otherwise. Thanks.

Ga-rei Zero made me believe Ga-rei was better than it turned out to be, but it was good enough to warrant checking out the author's new stuff. The pitch is a bit wtf, but I'll probably try it.

Not sure if I should give this a try. Beginning a synopsis with a sentence that includes something like 'regular high school girl' is never an attention-catcher for me and the ecchi tag puts me off too. I'll probably take a wait-and-see approach on this one.
I probably regret this post by now.

why the hell would you think it would, especially considering how ga rei was pretty heavy on romance between kagura and ken

Wow this... surprised me, but not in a bad way!! I think this manga will be really good as an anime, just didn't know it was popular enough to get an adaptation. Hopefully the animation quality won't be bad and ruin it :(

Oh, I started reading this today and find it pretty amusing. The artwork is very similar to Ga-Rei because of the author/artist. However, the premise is fun and I like the comedy and drama in it.

There's some fan service here and there but nothing out of the world. Definitely enjoyable read so far so can't wait to see this animated.

Why so little replies for this? =/ Gai-rei was pretty great so I'm pretty sure this won't be bad. Only read a little of the Tokyo ESP manga, it was okay but i kind of lost interesting after a while.

Probably because it's underrated and the manga is not too well known.

Oh and here's a visual art I found earlier today:

I honestly can't wait for this series to air soon!
