Mob Psycho 100 (モブサイコ１００)
Full-color animation character designers of Shigeo “Mob” Kageyama and Arataka Reigen, featured in Spoon.2Di Vol. 21 (Amazon US | eBay), illustrated by character designer Yoshimichi Kameda (亀田祥倫).
the last ep of mob psycho is hilarious to me because like. if sakurai’s sword didnt actually cut reigen, why was he lying on the ground, face-down and completely silent, for like 3 minutes? why?? was it for dramatic effect?? that’s the only explanation i can think of
Casual reminder that:
-Mob knows exactly what porn is and has moments of incredible sarcasm (usually to Dimple)
-Ritsu is innocent and naive enough to believe that Teru’s wig was actually a MASSIVE BRAIN, and WILL run screaming to his big brother over cockroaches
-Teru post-turnaround still struggles with staying humble and still exerts his power over people he doesn’t like
-Shou likes wrestling, but his favorite hobby is drawing
The thing that’s so ridiculous about fans infantilizing Mob is I feel like they’re losing sight of one of the most important elements of the series. Mob’s explosions are not him being taken over by someone else, he isn’t being possessed, these are the result of him being pushed too far with his emotions. Granted we still don’t know what ???% is (I honestly thought it was his subconscious but who knows), but his explosions are actually part of him. This isn’t like when Naruto would slip and get taken over by the Kyuubi. This is him hitting a boiling point. What Mob needs is self control and help with restraining himself in a healthier way as repression does not work. That’s literally why he went to Reigen and what his entire character arc is based around. And people come across like they’re missing this when they’re all “pwecious smol babu who needs to be hidden from harsh reality”.
mob staring down at reigen after saving him from one of the most terrifying and powerful evil spirits in the whole manga: huh? are you shitting me, master? you gonna call me out for this weak-ass spirit? in the middle of cram school day camp? huh? you traumatized half-dead bitch?
