Episode 1 of Psyren was a really strong start for me. The whole thing has this old-school shonen feel, but the mystery around the red phone card and the word “Psyren” gives it a darker edge almost immediately.
Ageha made a good first impression too. He’s reckless, stubborn, and clearly the type to jump into trouble without thinking twice, but that works here because his concern for Amamiya feels genuine. Her sudden disappearance is what really gives the episode its hook.
I also liked how the first half feels almost normal before everything starts getting more unsettling. The payphone, Nemesis Q, the strange calls, and the idea that people are disappearing because of some hidden game all build tension pretty well.
Visually, it isn’t the flashiest premiere I’ve seen, but the direction, music, and atmosphere carried it for me. More than anything, Episode 1 made me curious. I want to know what Psyren actually is, where Amamiya went, and just how dangerous that card really is. Definitely watching Episode 2. 🔥📞
