What it is about

The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. (Saiki Kusuo no Psi-nan) debuted in Weekly Shōnen Jump issue 2169 on May 14, 2012, and ran until February 2018. Created by Shuichi Aso, it follows Kusuo Saiki, a high school student born with every psychic power imaginable — telepathy, telekinesis, teleportation, clairvoyance — who only wants one thing: a quiet, ordinary life, something his eccentric classmates never let him have. The gag comedy was collected in 26 volumes (279 chapters) and adapted into an anime in 2016 and a live-action film in 2017. Its debut issue also carried Kochikame, One Piece and Naruto.
