【解禁！】7月新番アニメ「東京ESP」で、大空歩役を担当することになりました！ アフロの中学生（笑）ですが、クールなようで熱く、達観しているようで直情的な、振り幅の広い面白い役です。作品もすごく面白いのです。お楽しみに！ http://t.co/IV8y27v8zC #オガタ

Amazon Japan recentanly listing the opening and ending singles. Faylan sings opening "Tokyo Zero Hearts," while the currently unnamed ending is by Yousei Teikoku. The two were both previously attached to Katanagatari and the Future Diary franchise.
Hajime Segawa developed Toyko ESP while writing Ga-Rei, the supernatural manga that inspired prequel anime Ga-Rei Zero. His first proposal was something like The Matrix with a fart powered hero. When his editor scuttled that, he settled on an action series starring a girl whose phasing abilities manifest after she has a vision of a flying penguin.
