While the anime doesn't debut until July 11th, and there hasn't even been a full length preview yet, Blu-rays are already on sale for the anime adaptation of Tokyo ESP. What's attention grabbing about the listing is that, in addition to 12 page visual book, special sleeve art by character designer/animation director Shintetsu Takiyama and soundtrack CD, the limited edition features original manga Tokyo ESP × Ga-rei -SHADOW WALKER-.
Planned for 212 pages, this will feature a crossover between Hajime Segawa's psychic action manga Tokyo ESP and his earlier supernatural action series Ga-rei, the anime prequel of which was released in North America by FUNimation.
World God Only Knows'Shigehito Takayanagi will be directing the XEBEC production. He reunites with Hideyuki Kurata, who will be working on series composition, as well as scripting with Katsuhiko Takayama and Yasuko Kamo. Nyarko-San's Shintetsu Takiyama is chief character designer and animation director with Mitsuru Ishihara as sub character designer.
Music is from Evan Call（Elements Garden）and Lantis.
