Do you guys think it's time for Psyren to get an anime adaption? (hope I'm not the only one)

Psyren is an anime of intense action, minor psychology, a super well-organized superpower system, likable/despicable characters, a bit of romance, and adventuring of a minor dystopia (wise being the military and totalitarian faction), which, in my opinion, could make a good Shounen. If the Scryed and Gantz mangas were adapted into animes, why not psyren; especially due to the similarities that psyren share with the others (in Gantz case, only the MANGA is similar to psyren).
A small request: If there is a post of mine that you dislike, or want to discuss with me, please do so on my profile's comment page. I know it defeats the purpose of forums, but, I usually don't revisit forum threads after a post (unless it's my own) due to extreme laziness, and confusion. I enjoy discussing/ flame warring with others XD.

Bad idea, we don't need more rushed adaptions of mediocre Shounen. If they make an adaption they should wait and pull out an OVA.
However, given the rushed pace of later volumes and certain developments, sales are not living up to the expectations. An anime is unloikely under those circumstances.
Steel Ball Run anime when?

As much as I love Psyren, I also hope there won't be an anime. Yet! But once there's more chapters, I'd love for a filler-free anime adaptation =D

While I also want this to get an anime adaptation as much as the next guy, sadly reality bites. This manga is going in and out of the Bottom 5 of WSJ very frequently. I'm surprised myself that it's not getting the sack. Sales for this are normal but as far as popularity is going, it's not one of the top. Pity though, since I very much want this to be animated. Adaptations can do wonders to a series(or it goes wrong very badly XD). I'm still hoping though, since other WSJ mangas with lesser chapter counts than this have already gotten adaptations(Bakuman and Nurarihyon no Mago). An OVA would be a good idea too just like Beelzebub, just to test the waters ^^

I'd like a nice 24-episode anime if they put some effort into the ending. Cutting it off before it wanders too deep into generic shounen territory wouldn't be half bad.

But like belatkuro said, it's pretty unlikely.

OAV would be great.
In fact i think OAV would be perfect. But nowtime OAVs are.... short and a bit lacking the quantity (in comparison to earlier years).
Still if there would be anime adaptaion - i would watch it regardles of anything

Battle shounen series should NEVER be adapted into anime. They should stay as manga. And there is a reason for that (too lazy to elaborate though).

Psyren is a bit underrated in Jump because personally, I found it way more interesting than some other battle shounen series like Reborn.
bla bla bla
The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

You do have a point there. Most Battle Shonens, as animes, are 98% dialogue, and 2% actual fighting, in which 75% percent of the fight is showboating or flashbacks. I enjoy psyren, but if adapted, it will literally become another Bleach/Naruto (more to list, but I'll focus on the popular ones). As a manga, there is no room for the silly stuff that the anime adaption usually adds on, such as fillers, and excessive fan service,which is the usual focus instead of the actual fighting. So If i had to change my answer, I would probably vote "unsure"

Hehe, 100% agreed, no need for another "Full Metal Alchemist"(the anime) fail

I would like to see anime, for finding out what color WISE clothes are, or well just to see everything in color, because mostly there are Elmore kids, Ageha, Amamiya or some other main characters on manga covers :( . But anime only if there are going to be many episodes.
Thought I would hate fillers. And I think flashback episodes are only needed if there are 50+ episodes.

i doubt there would be Adaptation. Since it's ended because of lack of "interest from readers" (read "Votes).

Personally i see what the problem is.
Setting is too mature to be shown as straight-shounen manga (like One Piece, Naruto, Bleach). And being just "another shounen manga" would not give Psyren votes (thus - canceling run of the series). I am glad that Mangaka managed to reach some conclusion in just 6-8 chapters since it became obvious that manga going to the End (read "going to be canceled")

I think it'll have about 50-60 episodes because ever since chapter 80, the manga been moving extremely slow.

Dude, I totally agee with you

SJ ruined Psyren. Doubt there will be an anime...if there is, I really hope that it strays from the manga after the events of chapter 80. In terms of rushed manga to uber anime goes, I hope psyren follow the Code geass path.

Well, I find it weird that they wont do a Psyren anime adaption.

I mean, they can take some shitty manga's that you've barely heard of, that has like 20 chapters (just started), and make it into an anime adaption. And then have to cut it short or put horrible fillers in it, cause its getting too close to the manga already cause of the only 20 chapters published.

But they can't take an awesome manga such as Psyren with over 200 chapters, that has even ENDED, and make it an anime.
They would have all the material they need, and they wouldnt need to cut it short or spoil it with crappy fillers to let the manga progress along.

And it's not like the Psyren manga doesnt have followers, it was a great manga.
No, shame on animators.
More Psyren, and less crap.

I think its a good idea if it is done well.
Although the chances of it being well done are.....low.

If its to be done....personally,i think they should follow the manga. Things tend to get screwed up when they deviate from the manga.

That's my opinion...at least till i finish the manga

Psyren is popular enough its being brought over to the U.S. so I don't think an anime is entirely out of the question yet. I mean it has only been 2 years or so since it ended and a large base of what becomes an anime is based on popularity. I mean maybe there will be a huge boost in ESP story fandom (or some genre Psyren fits in), or the author makes an extremely big hit like one of the big three (Currently "Naruto," "One Piece," and "Bleach") in the future in japan and that will spike its sales enough for an anime. I mean its mostly popularity based, look at the fact that they are doing another "Hunter X Hunter," anime after only OVAs for how many years. So I say who knows if it will or won't happen but just keep hoping and supporting the series.

Actually,Psyren has an advantage to becoming an anime at this moment,with the manga finished and all...well....what chance is there for fillers?And an anime's popularity hardly matters anymore,I mean,wasn't Psyren more popular than Toriko?If so,then look who's the one with an anime adaption.

Psyren is a canceled series, it will never get adaption, just like other canceled series. It doesn't matter how popular it was back than, there was no offer for anime, the ranks got lower and sales drooped so Jump canceled it. Never once I heard of canceled series that gets anime so it won't happed here. If you ask yourself way it's licensed even thought it canceled, the answer is simple, Viz licensed Psyren before it was decided to be canceled, after the first volume release in north America it was canceled in japan, viz stopped Psyren publication but after few months the returned it and the first volume re-released about a year after it first released, Viz did it since it's still bring them money, same thing happed in Muhyo and Roji, the finished it and it even sold a lot. The only thing you can do right now it to support the author by buying the volumes and to hope Iwashiro-sensei will be back with new series soon.

By the way don't expect "New Season" of Psyren in other magazine since it belonged to Shueisha right now, the only way of him to continue Psyren is to somehow remove the contract that says Psyren belongs to Shueisha (which is almost impossible only one mangaka in the history could do that) or he will do popular series and then Jump will give him the opportunity to do second season of Psyren like the creator of Shaman King did with Jumbor, of course it will take really long years.

Well the thing about Psyren is It'll never be another Naruto or Bleach and I mean that in a good way. Ichigo is one dimensional. All the stuff that Naruto spouts about forgiveness pisses me off. Ageha doesn't care about all of that. If you get in his way he kills you. No morality abt that. Which is why I absolutely loved the series. All the girls are badass as well. No damsels in distress that need saving by the great main character.

I agree with most of the things you said, just have to correct you there, there have been anime adaptations for mangas that were cancelled early in WSJ. Example of that is Hatsukoi Gentei which was cancelled ending up with only 4 volumes, yet it had an anime adaptation nearly 2 years after it ended.

(that doesn't mean I think Psyren will get an anime though)

Cancelled or not, it has an ending and we all know the amount of animes with horrible endings is great. The sales just sucked, I have no idea how that happened because average JUMP series are still airing with some of them having at least 2 seasons. Well whatever, if you want to see something close to an anime adaptation of it then check out vomic.

I wish that this would receive an anime adaption. It may not be plausible, but I still wish that it would happen. Despite the fact that ending was rushed, I still read the whole series in four days, which is kind of similar what happened with Code Geass, in my case. Neither of those series are perfect, but the enjoyment value is pretty high.

[Incredibly implausible theory time]

Two of the "big three" (Bleach and Naruto) are reaching the end of their series, with Bleach having already ended (at least for now..).

My theory is that in order to fill the shounen-void left by these two series, they will adapt some other shounen series. And Psyren might be one of them.

I'm not saying that this theory is within the bounds of reality. Just let me have my hopes, 'kay?

At the end Psyren's rank is #24 on Manga Ranking of March 7-13, 2011 from #14 on Manga Ranking of January 6-12, 2009.

Cancelled because of unsuccessful? No, the manga is being rush by the Mangaka. If this manga gets anime adaptation why not add more scene to correct the mistake to rush the manga. There are some LN and Manga that being rush when it gets anime adaptation. For example Unbreakable Machine-Doll, even through it has 12 volumes, the anime only have 12 episodes. And the manga Highschool of the Dead gets anime adaptation even if the manga is like unfinished but it still ongoing.

Yeah if it does then it will be considered the first independent comci bok series in japan made and self publsihed by the creator himself like how cerebrus and bone did.
