From the New World - S01

In 2011, a small percentage of humans started to develop psychokinetic powers called "Cantus." More than a thousand years later, in the small town of Kamisu 66, Saki Watanabe is the last among her friends to awaken her powers and enroll at the Sage Academy, a school for psychics like her. Everyone at the school has Cantus, but they are not all equal. Soon after Saki starts, a classmate considered weaker than the others suddenly disappears. One day, walking home with her friends - the determined Maria Akizuki, the intelligent Shun Aonuma, the observant Satoru Asahina, and the timid Mamoru Itou - she encounters two strange creatures called "Monster Rats." They look like moles and worship those with Cantus as gods. So when Saki uses her powers to rescue one of them from danger, she receives extraordinary gratitude. Now uncertain about the Monster Rats' place in society, Saki and her friends learn of another disappearance. As time passes, they gradually search for answers to the mysteries around them and begin to realize that this seemingly "perfect" new world hides humanity's dark past.
