The catfight battle nearest the end was amazing; Tokyo Esp episode 5 impression

This writing piece will give plenty information to you regarding to Tokyo Esp episode 5. So, if you want to really enjoyed watching the episode without spoiler, I recommend you turn your back now and watch the episode. If you already watch it and want to hear my opinion regarding the episode, please continue. 

Tokyo Esp once again told us directly about any mysteries that we have from the previous episode. I honestly thanked the director for not giving us so many headaches to discover the nature of the esp power as well as the identity of the professor. Tokyo Esp, while having supra natural theme, keeps the story as simple as possible and mysteries related to the events in Tokyo Esp got explained as fast as possible made the actions have adequate time within the limited air time.

Who are you anyway.. David Copperfield??

In the last episode, the professor appeared in front of Rinka and Murasaki. Without spending too much time for introductions he  explained that the glowing fish was actually the aura that comes out from a legendary stone tablet that he found during his previous research. In human eyes, the aura from the stone tablet looked like glowing fishes and any person who absorbed them would get their innate power born. In addition,  the professor told them that he was the person responsible for releasing the Esp power in the Tokyo during the last three months. After the professor left, Kyotaro Azuma told them directly that he was Hokusai Azuma, the person who raised him and Minami . So he was Kyotaro step father and honestly I already felt it before so it did not surprise me. From now on, I will call Azuma as Kyotaro to avoid confusion with Hokusai due to their similarity in their last name.

It does not sound like Tokyo Esp without skull crushing kick

We got another Kyotaro's back story again with his first meeting with Minami and how she acted cold when they met for the first time. Then the event explained that Kyotaro started to earn her trust with his bravado to stand against his seniors, whose intended to do perverted thing to her. Kyotaro started to get closer with his step sister and this event marked the complicated relationship within the main characters as Rinka also started to develop some feeling to him. 

I don't like seeing people fight but they were the exception

The episode got another serious development with the Hokusai summoned a giant tanker ship above Tokyo. He announced that they demanded a special Esp zone in the Tokyo and they would not hesitate to use force if necessary. Another revelation happened as he showed his true appearance. Beneath his gentle and bishounen look, lies another face that looks completely like the Titan from SnK. It was quite shocking since his real face did not appear at all during the first episode and the origin of his face became another mystery to the title.

Achievement 197 unlocked "performed Chun li's back flip"

The fighting part of the episode was a cool one. Kobushi and Kyotaro boarded the flying ship tanker and met directly with the Hokusai, Minami, Kozuki (Kobushi's little sister) and two mysterious Espers. As Kobushi tried to disappear and attack Hokusai, Kozuki deflect her punch. She even trapped Kobushi in a box cage using her Esp Magic. They were in the pinch with Kozuki wounded Kobushi and Hokusai rewrite Kyotaro mind so that whenever he and Kobushi transport, he always ended up in front of Hokusai. 

Say good night B***h

Rinka who appeared later performed a kick to Minami who used her katana to retaliate. How surprised Minami to find out that Rinka could go through her Katana and gave her the first strike. Although getting the first strike, the more experienced Minami continuously beat Rinka. She dissapeared, Kicked her in the back, performed a fast shoulder throw and completely overwhelmed her. In the end, she even performed a heavy drop kick on the back of Rinka's head leaving her completely passed out. In the last part of the episode, one of the mysterious Espers change the ship's angle making Rinka fell and Kyotaro without considering his left hand still stabbed to Hokusai's sword tore his left hand and threw himself from the ship to catch Rinka

The smiling Titan. I thought Eren finished you off

The episode ended in a big cliffhanger and with how the story went, I have little to no complain to Tokyo Esp's direction. Sure it might not be the most original or unique anime that ever aired. Nevertheless, it's simplicity and plenty of actions made the anime easy to watch and still manages to entertain me.
