PLOT SYNOPSIS (And a sort of shitty one too, wtf wikipedia?):

"Tokyo ESP begins with Rinka Urushiba as a fairly normal high school girl, though she is a bit poor and her only family is her father. This forces her to work as a waitress after high school to raise money for them to secure rent and food. One day, she sees a penguin and some glowing fish swimming through the sky. Rinka might have thought it was a hallucination if there had not been another witness with her, a boy from her school with a strangely scratched-up face. Contact with a fish causes her to pass out, and when she awakens, she has developed the power to move through inanimate objects such as the floor of her apartment. She meets a fellow high school student named Kyotaro Azuma, who has the ability to teleport. The two of them use their ESP powers to take on individuals who have decided to use them for evil. However, there is an organization that plans for a bigger scheme to secure utopia with their ranks consisting of strong ESP fighters and users."

Watched the first three episodes of this yesterday. So far it's pretty fun, I like the characters, the lore and setting is pretty nonstandard compared to most anime I've seen, and it's all-around a pretty good time and easy watch. I was a little iffy about the decision to go into an extended flashback arc immediately after the first episode but the flashback itself is interesting enough to keep me interested.

So yeah. Pretty good show. Haven't decided if I'll choose to catch up to the manga after the anime is finished/on hiatus/whatever like I did with Shingeki no Kyojin but I'd still recommend it.

Anyone else seen?
