----------------------------------------
Reigen is scary :o

I like how they have the core members of Claw gathered at once to face off against their enemies. Pretty decent action as well including Teru fighting. RIP the hair lolol

I thought episode was overall quite entertaining. That cliffhanger though :((
Time to see Mob unleashing his rage next time? Hyped.

GOD DAMN IT. THAT'S TWICE.


Possible scenario:


Last week's anime-onlys reactions: FUCKING REIGEN?!

This week's anime-onlys reactions: FUCKING REEEEEEEEEEEIGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!!!!!!!

And they added THAT FIRST MEET SCENE TOO??? Yeah I'm kinda confused with that direction they chose but COME ON! Hey Bones, hey ONE you wanted my tears to flow again? YEAH HAVE IT!

The fact that the preview for the next episode was said by Mob, not Reigen, made my heart wanted to jump out of the windows from feels.

If all worry about that flashback,Tachikawa explains on twitter that the last scene is "from Mob's point of view, so they've cut Reigen's monologue". So season2 is possible. They'll repeat the same scene from Reigen's point of view.

RIP Dimple cut from the second to last episode

I am like, so hyped for next week. But also I am not because last episode. I can't believe how they keep making the cliffhangers worse and worse.

Also - that was some seriously top-tier animation, holy crap. Might be the best episode of the season. We'll see if 12 surpasses it.

Brilliant episode.

Reigen is officially the best character in this show, He may be a shady guy but he's a true master worthy of respect. I love how he just strolled in there, Trolled and got everyone to follow him XD
His special moves were hilarious.

It's very interesting to see the conflict within Mob, To hold onto the ideals Reigen taught him about being a good human being or give it up in the name of protecting the people around him. It's also sad when you think about it :(

The fight sequences were just pure awesomeness.

That flashback with Mob and Reigen is just so sad. T.T Little Mob finding inspiration and developing respect towards Reigen was just so bittersweet in the scenario it was shown. Overall, Excellent job showcasing the relationship between Mob and Reigen, The very fact that Reigen was able to snap Mob out of his 100% for a moment there proves how much faith Mob has in his master.

I really hope Reigen isn't dead. Can I hope for this? T.T

That "Snap out of it" scene is PERFECT, my heart can't take it! I already read the manga chapters but still, the scene brought tears to my eyes again.
I hope they confirm the 2nd season as they did in my hero academia's last episode.
Also, Reigen shines in this episode~ finally now everyone realize his real important role in the story~
As for previous episode's cliff hanger, I laughed so much, Bones did a very excellent job in making the people who didn't read the manga panic XD
I am already looking forward to checking youtube and see them react to the episode XD
Great episode~ 10/10

I knew Reigen wasn't the boss kek, I didn't know how he fooled them though, the Claw fodder are dumb.
Oh my we almost got the 100% killing intent.
I was a bit confused as to why Reigen wants Mob to not fight and even went as far as to "fight" and argue with them, I thought he was a 100% fraud that didn't really give that much of a shit about Mob but he cares for him somewhat I guess and he doesn't want him to kill someone, some character development you got there
Reigen carries this fucking show so much holy shit, how can a comedy act be so based? what's with those swings and drop kicks lmao, dude can throw hits too.
Glad Mob didn't just clean the floor with those 4 in his base form without even trying and that solved everything.
That ending song fits way too much with this episode, Mob doing the preview was nice too.
I doubt Reigen is dead or anything after so much development, the series would sink deep without him.
10/10, best episode of the anime.

Best episode so far imo.
The flashback with Mob meeting Reigen the first time was so cool.

Now one last episode is left.
I dont read the manga atm and therefore I dont know how the show will continue.
But what I can say for sure is, that I absolutely want to see a 2nd Season.
Please make it happen!

Of course Reigen ended up being the "boss" through miscommunication. There was no way he'd actually be the real boss.

The animation in this episode was, once again, top-notch. Epic fights, Mob's murderous intent, and some development for Reigen. The ending was pretty predictable since there was that flashback right before it, but Mob is going to fuck shit up next episode. That preview was hype as fuuuuuuck!

I didn't much like this confrontation in the manga, and I don't much like it here either. Reigen's pacifist ideals are commendable, but really naive in these circumstances, and "murderous intent" clearly isn't the only option for Mob: he could just knock his opponents out without killing them, just like he did with the other Scar members. It was still a good episode, though, and the decision to extend the fight was a good one.

Only one episode left.I hope Bones will announce another season right away just like they did with My Hero Academia.

Ishiguro is stronger than Mob. Mob needs 100% to win but to win he needs a murderous intent which is bad for kids.

Thank you for cutting Teru's wig, Sakurai. Now we can finally stop looking at that monstrosity.

As a manga reader I was expecting them to end the episode where they did, although I'm kinda disappointed because the end of this arc is my favorite part of Mob Psycho and I just want to see it animated already. Also kinda wish that they hadn't put the flashback during that exact moment, but it makes sense to have it early if they're unsure about a season two.

Holy crud they nailed that ending so well, though. Those fights looked so good, and I'm ready to see some Claw getting wrecked.

Reigen's thing is that it's really screwed up that a middle schooler is being forced to fight a bunch of adults (and killing intent really is the only solution here, Mob's too stressed from everything that's happened and their opponents are fighting to kill so he can't afford to hold back at all), and that Mob shouldn't be forced to handle this situation himself. He's a kid, and he can't handle it, and he's not going to be able to live with himself in the aftermath.

Reigen applying the realistic view to a typical Shounen situation, and that was fresh!

Although it can be pretty hard to actually apply it, and part of it is probably because Reigen just didn't understand the situation as well (also why he applied his tactics to persuade others here and failed), but I still respect what he was trying to do so that Mob doesn't solve all his problems away with his powers and end up like the Scars.

Wow. One the one side im a bit disappointed that reigen wasn't the boss. I mean come on. It would be the biggest twist in anime history if reigen would actually be this strong, but decided to dont use his powers. (Lol one can still hope XD)

On the other hand this showed Reigens charisma perfectly and he is a good guy. He really is the best sensei for Mob.

But what the fuck is this cliffhanger! Im not satisfied yet! I want to see bad guys get they asses kicked!
I really hope we will get a second season. because I think this studio did a splendid job of "changing" the manga style into animated scenes.
Also that ost is hype.

Looks like Bones didn't disappoint heh heh
"I like young-girl sexual creations, Lolicon is just one hobby of my many hobbies," he says.
I ask what his wife, standing nearby, thinks of his "hobby".
"She probably thinks no problem," he replies. "Because she loves young boys sexually interacting with each other."

I don't think Ishiguro is stronger than Mob. I don't know if you've read the manga, but

So I don't think Mob needs murderous intent in order to defeat Ishiguro. He just feels cornered, and wants to protect his friends.

I understand that Reigen is trying to guide Mob in a horrible situation, but I think right now Reigen's lessons are alienating Mob from an essential part of himself. Instead of teaching him that he should never use his powers against other people, not even when that is the only option to prevent greater harm, I think Reigen should teach Mob that he can do great things with his powers (!), but that he should only use them against others when it is absolutely necessary, and to minimize harm when doing so. You can't win every battle with words, and Mob should be prepared to fight those battles. Instead of telling Mob to run away from those battles, I think Reigen should prepare him for them, so they don't get out of hand (see the battle with Teru).

Although, to be fair, up to this point, Reigen had no way of knowing that there are other espers with evil intentions.

(and killing intent really is the only solution here, Mob's too stressed from everything that's happened and their opponents are fighting to kill so he can't afford to hold back at all)

I understand that Mob feels stressed out after everything that has happened, and because he is also cornered, killing them may really seem like the only option to him at this point. But there are other options, and Reigen is one of the few people who can help Mob to get a hold of himself and go for those instead. Just running away wouldn't work either: they would just come after them. They need to be defeated.

Gotta hand it to bones, this was masterfully directed. Tachikawa explained in Twitter that the flashback (although a scene that happens far in the manga) is shown here ONLY in Mob's perspective and not Reigen's. Might be either a hint that S2 is in the works or simply that they wanted the ending to feel more conclusive.

Funfact: the ending shows Reigen's life before he met mob, that's why it's monochromatic and turns into color after he meets mob.

Ishiguro forced Mob to the ground. Mob needs 100% to be stronger than Ishiguro which in turn would be a killing intent emotion. He needs to kill them unless Mob wants them to come back and get revenge. Reigen solved this problem.
