A popular series originally published in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump magazine is getting a new anime adaptation in 2026, sixteen years after it finished. As the year ends, fans have a lot to look forward to, with numerous new anime releases planned. In addition to fresh content, several older, beloved series – and even some lesser-known gems – are making a comeback. Expect a lot of revivals in the next year!
Exciting news for fans of the manga Psyren! The series, which originally ran in Shonen Jump from 2007 to 2010, is getting a new anime adaptation. After being out of the spotlight for a while, Psyren will return next year with a brand new animated series. You can find a first look and initial details about the project below.
What to Know for Psyren’s New Anime
The manga Psyren is getting an anime adaptation set to premiere in 2026. While a specific release date hasn’t been revealed yet, Katsumi Ono will direct the series, with animation by Satelight. Shin Yoshida is writing the scripts, Akira Okuma is designing the characters, and Takashi Ohmama, Tatsuhiko Saiki, and Shu Kanematsu are composing the music. This announcement fulfills a long-held wish among fans who have been hoping for an official anime adaptation of Psyren.
The voice actors for the upcoming anime have been announced: Rikuya Yasuda will play Ageha Yoshina, and Mayuko Kazama will voice Sakurako Amamiya. Series creator Toshiaki Iwashiro expressed his excitement, sharing that he’s thrilled to finally announce the anime after waiting for this moment for around 15 years – something he wasn’t able to share with his family before. This news is especially welcome for fans who have been eagerly anticipating an anime adaptation.
