FUNimation has made another pickup from the summer 2014 anime season with the announcement of Tokyo ESP joining their lineup. The series is debuting today on their service for EVS members at 2:05pm ET with new episodes landing every Friday at the same time. They’ve also picked up the home video rights, which is as always welcome news to have right from the get go.
Plot concept: The girl next door is about to become so much more.
Rinka is a high school student in Tokyo trying to make ends meet while supporting herself and her father. Her ordinary life takes a turn for the extraordinary when she witnesses a penguin and a school of fish flying through the air. After catching up to one of the fish, she passes out and wakes up to find herself suddenly granted supernatural powers. With her newfound ability to walk through solid objects, Rinka is about to learn just how transparent the world can be.
