PSYREN premieres on Crunchyroll on October 5 at 7:30 a.m. Pacific Time, which is 11:30 a.m. in Brasília. Crunchyroll confirmed the slot on October 2 and will stream the series worldwide except Japan and China.
The adaptation comes from Toshiaki Iwashiro's manga, published in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump from December 2007 to November 2010 across 16 volumes. VIZ Media publishes it in English. High schooler Ageha Yoshina finds a red phone card in a booth. Days later, childhood friend Sakurako Amamiya, who had the same card, vanishes. Ageha follows rumors of disappearances blamed on an organization called Psyren and enters a deadly game.

In Japan, the TV premiere was set for October 5 at 11 p.m. on Tokyo MX and BS11, with a later broadcast on Sun TV.
