☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThe first volume of the sci-fi action manga series Tokyo ESP, this collection introduces Rinka Urushiba, a high school girl who gains the ability to phase through solid objects after encountering glowing fish. She joins a group of fellow ESP users to fight against others who misuse their powers for crime and terrorism. This edition collects the opening chapters of the story by creator Hajime Segawa (also known for Ga-Rei).
Rinka Urushiba, a high school student with a bike and a quiet routine, finds her world upended when a flying penguin and ghostly fish appear in broad daylight. After a stranger claims one of the fish entered her body, giving her the ability to slip through walls, she’s sent to the hospital—only to learn her father, Rindo Urushiba, has developed a power of his own, now buried beneath a pile of cars he somehow summoned.
In "The Mysterious Crow Head," Rinka Urushiba is drawn into a high-stakes mystery when Kyotaro Azuma, known as Crow Head, enlists her help to stop a phantom thief wielding ESP to steal priceless artworks. With the police closing in on Crow Head as the culprit and Rinka unsure who to trust, the line between ally and adversary blurs in a game of shadows and secrets.
Rinka Urushiba is pulled into a high-stakes mission when Crow Head recruits her to track down Peggi the Penguin, a mysterious creature linked to ESP fish. As she and her allies pursue the penguin, they find themselves caught in a tense standoff with a trio of overzealous university students, forcing them to rethink their goals and protect both the penguin and her human companion.
In a pulse-pounding Tokyo ESP tale, the fiery Pyro and a crew of Yakuza thugs pull off a bank heist that quickly spirals into a hostage crisis. Rinka Urushiba and the enigmatic Crow Head must move fast—using their hidden abilities to outwit Pyro’s flames and rescue the captives—without revealing their identities in a city already on edge.
In "Reunion with the Invisible Girl," Rinka Urushiba must navigate a web of loyalty and danger when a rival Yakuza boss kidnaps Murasaki Edoyama to pressure her father, unaware of Murasaki’s secret bond with Peggi the Penguin. As Rinka races to save her friend, she’s ambushed by the vengeful Black Fist, forcing her to confront not only a powerful enemy but the fragile line between past and present.
In the wake of Black Fist’s brutal victory over Rinka Urushiba and Pyro’s fiery destruction of her home, Crow Head activates his teleportation abilities to track down the arsonist—determined to confront him on his own terms. With tensions flaring across the city and old alliances fracturing, the search for justice becomes a high-stakes game of shadows and speed.
Rinka Urushiba takes a reckless stand when she defies her father’s warnings and storms Big Boss Hotokeda’s headquarters alone—armed with nothing but three police batons, her phasing ability, and a fierce determination to save Murasaki Edoyama. With the city’s underground network of strange talents and hidden agendas swirling around her, Rinka’s bold move sets off a chain of events that tests her courage and her limits.
In "The Dark Warrior," Rinka Urushiba and Kyotaro Azuma, known as Crow Head, confront Big Boss Hotokeda, only to discover he wields an ESP ability of his own—and a ruthless plan to dominate the market on psychic powers. As tensions rise, Minami Azuma, the enigmatic Dark Warrior, begins to reveal her true motives, while Peggi the Penguin drops a startling secret: she can repossess the fish that grant ESP abilities.
