M!LK's Breakout Year Runs Straight Into Chinjuku
M!LK formed in November 2014 and spent most of a decade as a mid-tier five-member dance and vocal group. Then 2025 arrived. "Ii Jan" took over Japanese social feeds, its hook pose turned into shorthand for the year, and the group closed December with its first appearance at NHK's year-end Kohaku Uta Gassen music special. "That's! Chojo" lands with that run behind it.
The song title is a pun the anime can't translate away. 超常 (chōjō) means "paranormal," and it's read exactly like the surname of the show's lead officer, 超条. English coverage renders both as Chojo, which flattens the joke. In Japanese, the title reads as "That's! Paranormal" and "That's! Chojo" at once.
Japanese entertainment news site Oricon News reports that the second main PV is built around the new track. The video opens quiet and film-like, closer to a moody drama than a Weekly Shonen Jump comedy. The moment "That's! Chojo" kicks in, the tone flips. The cuts speed up, and the show becomes the high-tempo psychic police comedy it really is.
Shifuku Poncho Take the Ending Theme
The ending theme, "Mata Ashita" ("See You Tomorrow"), goes to Shifuku Poncho, a three-piece whose members average 20 years old. Vocalist and bassist Rion, guitarist Taichi and drummer Nao all played in separate groups in the same high school light music club. They formed the band once their club days ended. They put out their first album at the end of 2024 and have been building a following on the live-house circuit since.
Pairing a national-scale dance and vocal group with a band barely two years into its career is a standard Fuji TV late-night split, and it gives the show two very different moods to bookend each episode.
A Telepath and a Rookie Called Gorilla
Super Psychic Policeman Chojo adapts Shun Numa's manga, which ran in Weekly Shonen Jump and wrapped in June 2025 at eight volumes. Meguru Chojo is a criminal investigation specialist who works through mind reading, clairvoyance, telepathy and whatever else a case demands. His partner is Nao Ippongi, a rookie officer and judo black belt whose raw strength earned the nickname "Gorilla." The two keep the peace in Chinjuku, the series' lightly renamed stand-in for Shinjuku.
Yusuke Kobayashi voices Chojo, with Riko Aono as Nao Ippongi and Maria Naganawa as Robo-kun. The supporting cast includes Daisuke Ono as Yuki Inukai and Toshiya Miyata as Hajime Keinain, plus Nobuaki Kanemitsu, Kanna Nakamura and Kazuki Ura.
Junichi Yamamoto (More Than a Married Couple, But Not Lovers) directs at Arvo Animation (Kowloon Generic Romance, Monster Girl Doctor). Hayashi Mori is on series composition and scripts, Masakatsu Sasaki handles character designs, and Keiji Inai composes the score.
