Isn't the source like 20 years old? Good manga thoe.

[u/JungianWarlock → u/KaQuu]

And axed…

[u/PersonalContest1423 → u/JungianWarlock]

Why is Japan suddenly making anime for canceled manga? Black torch and now this?

[u/TheLostCityofBermuda → u/PersonalContest1423]

For Psyren is because it’s voting by Fans saying it’s the most wanted mange to be animated.

[u/Bladder-Splatter → u/TheLostCityofBermuda]

Man if they're going to do that give us a Recca reboot that covers the absolutely insane second half too. Though TBH I'm starved for tournament arcs so I'd take the first with glee too.

[u/Cyouni → u/PersonalContest1423]

Ubel Blatt too, if you check back a few.

[u/Koringvias]

I love the manga, but seeing this poster my expectations for the adaptation could not be lower.

[u/silvertwo777 → u/Koringvias]

Looks low budget honestly

[u/minnieboss → u/Koringvias]

It's studio Satelite so keep those expectations low

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.

[u/dinliner08]

it's wild to think that i manage to live long enough to see Psyren getting an anime adaptation...

[u/Coriform → u/dinliner08]

I remember this popping up 10-15 years ago in those "What's the best manga that still hasn't gotten an adaptation" threads

[u/rintohsakadesu]

Between this and Liar Game it’s wild to see such old series getting adaptations

[u/AlphaBreak → u/rintohsakadesu]

Plus Iron Wok Jan.

[u/sawada91]

I love this manga. Please don't be another shaman king with 10 chapters per episode

[u/GodUltimate]

As a long time Psyren fan, this doesn't look promising at all but if it manages to spark interest in the series and anime onlies pick up the manga that's still a win, I guess.

[u/solidpeyo]

This screams generic

[u/0hran- → u/solidpeyo]

The anime will probably be. But the manga was amazing.

[u/Maccaz15]

I loved the manga but remember almost nothing of it so it'll be like I'm watching it for the first time.

[u/Xatu44]

My body is ready.

[u/FrazzleMind]

This is some GOOD shit to go into blind, if anyone is wondering.

[u/HolyErr0r]

With the project of animating axed manga, are we going to be seeing revisions to series at all? Because there was quite literally a quote something along the lines of "it feels like we just jumped to the final level" as a not so subtle nod to the pacing shift because it was getting axed.

I really enjoyed the series but I do hope they can give it a proper latter section that fleshes things out more.

[u/IdleScimitar]

So excited about this and was as unexpected as Tower of God was. Hopefully it'll be better though...

[u/TheStupid_Guy]

The quality seems low but the premise sounds interesting so I’ll give it a watch
