Psychic Academy (サイキックアカデミー煌羅万象, Saikikku Akademī Ōra Banshō) is a Japanese seinen manga series written and illustrated by Katsu Aki. It was published by Kodansha in Magazine Z between 1999 and 2003. An anime ONA ( original net animation) adaptation was produced by E.G. Films in 2002. Both the manga and anime have been licensed in North America by Tokyopop.
Psychic Academy follows the life of Ai Shiomi in modern-day Japan. He has psychic powers, also known as "aura power." This ability has emerged in the series world, but not every character possesses these powers. Aura power allows certain elements such as fire, water, ice, lightning, earth, wind, and light to be used by characters with this ability. The type of power they can use depends on their given aura power and what they are taught.
The main character Ai agrees to attend the Psychic Academy School after being pressured by his brother. The school is where elite students are taught how to use their elemental aura power.The main character Ai knows that somewhere within the Academy is his childhood friend Orina. However, at school, she is known as Sahra, because she goes after her aura code. On his way to his first day at school, Ai encounters a girl also going to that school named Myuu. She is another student at the Academy and is a very quiet, seemingly moody girl. Ai also learns that his older brother Zero, a legend amongst those with aura powers, will be one of his teachers.
As Ai struggles with his new school—a life he is not sure he wants—a crazy rabbit takes him as his student. His feelings for Orina and Myuu begin to develop and contrast, as the school year progress. Ai also makes discoveries about his rare light aura. To further complicate things, a group of researchers tries to artificially awaken the dormant aura genes within all humans, heedless of the danger and damage to society it might cause.

"For fans of the anime it's an easy thing to check out and recommended, but for casual fans, your mileage may vary." — Chris Beveridge, Mania. [1]
"A lightweight, but still reasonably enjoyable series that isn't anywhere as original as its release format. My guess is that the manga is better." — Carlos Ross, T.H.E.M. Anime Reviews. [2]
