Psyren Anime Announced for 2026

#news #anime December 14, 2025

Toshiaki Iwashiro's Psyren manga is getting an anime adaptation by studio Satelight, as announced earlier. Psyren anime will premiere in 2026. The teaser trailer is now available:

The main cast will feature Rikuya Yasuda as Ageha Yoshina and Mayuko Kazama as Sakurako Amamiya.

I’m Rikuya Yasuda, and I’ll be voicing Ageha Yoshina. I received the news that I passed the audition while I was at home—and I’m glad I was in a place where I could yell out loud, because I really did! Ever since that moment, the excitement of being part of the PSYREN TV anime hasn’t left me, and I’m dying to share it with all of you. Now, almost 15 years after the manga concluded, PSYREN is heating up once again. I’ll be charging full speed ahead alongside Ageha into this wild, psychic world!!

I’m Mayuko Kazama, and I’ll be playing the role of Sakurako Amamiya. Amamiya is known for her cool and composed demeanor—so much so that she’s earned the nickname “Ice Queen.” But beneath that calm exterior lies a whirlwind of emotions. During recording, I gave my all to explore her inner world and express her hidden layers as vividly as possible. Please look forward to the broadcast!

The staff for the Psyren anime includes:

  • Director: Katsumi Ono
  • Series Composition: Shin Yoshida
  • Character Designer: Haku Ookuma
  • Music: Takashi Omama, Tatsuhiko Saiki, Shu Kanematsu

The manga was serialized in the Weekly Shonen Jump magazine from 2007 to 2010. It has a total of 145 chapters, compiled into 16 volumes.

It’s finally happening—PSYREN is getting an anime!
I’m overjoyed that I can finally share this news with my parents and family, something I wasn’t able to do about 15 years ago.
Several young editors and anime production staff have come up to me with a fiery gleam in their eyes, telling me they loved PSYREN when they were teenagers. Knowing that those same people, now grown, are involved in bringing this anime to life fills me with nothing but gratitude and emotion.
I truly hope the excitement and thrill of PSYREN reaches everyone!
I also had the opportunity to be involved in the script, and like all of you, I’m eagerly looking forward to seeing Ageha and the rest of the cast come to life—moving and speaking on screen.

VIZ Media licensed the manga and published the entirety of the series in English. The licensor describes the plot:
"Save me!" Those were Sakurako Amamiya's last words to her friend Ageha Yoshina before she mysteriously went missing. Now Ageha's on a quest to find her. He's convinced that the mythical Psyren Secret Society has something to do with the recent rash of disappearances. And now he seems to be caught up as a player in their very deadly game...
