Kotarou's ESP transfers by touch, accidentally awakening cousin Tatsuki's powers and revealing deeper mysteries.
Kotarou Oohira is a boy with the clueless touch--he has an unusual type of ESP that is transmitted via physical contact. When he accidentally gives his cousin Tatsuki the "gift", he comes to realize that there is much more to his powers than he ever imagined! (Source: Tokyopop)
