The Studio Pierrot booth at the AnimeJapan 2026 event on Saturday lists the television anime of Toshiaki Iwashiro’s Psyren manga with an October 2026 premiere date. (Satelight is the listed studio for animation production.)
REMOW described the anime’s story:
One day, high schooler Ageha Yoshina picks up a mysterious “red phone card” left behind
in a public telephone booth.
A few days later, his childhood friend and classmate, Sakurako Amamiya—who
possessed the same card—suddenly vanishes without a trace. In search of her, Ageha
finds himself drawn into the rumors surrounding a nationwide string of mysterious
disappearances, said to be the work of a secret organization known only as “Psyren.”
When he accesses the group, a deadly game begins—one that will change his fate
forever.
The anime will star Rikuya Yasuda as Ageha Yoshina and Mayuko Kazama as Sakurako Amamiya.
The other cast members include:
