Alice & Zoroku
On Tokyo MX
A gentle, character-driven fantasy about an unlikely intergenerational bond between a traumatized child with reality-warping powers and a gruff elderly man learning to be a guardian.
The story centers on a little girl called Sana, who is one of the children that holds the power of "Alice's Dream," an ability that enables her to materialize anything she imagines. After escaping a lab where she was a test subject, Sana ends up in a normal world where she encounters an old man named Zouroku, but will he help her?
