Another great episode.

Reigen appearing out of nowhere with his Self-Defense Rush was too funny.

Hehe, same here. Is like, after one of the most highest stakes fight of the whole series, Reigen just appears just to remind you that this is goddamn Mob Psycho 100, and that it just can be as ridiculous as it can be serious. Reigen is awesome

How was it rushed? The pacing was actually surprisingly tight considering how many fights were being handled at once. They made good use of every minute this ep.

How amazing is when an anime can be the single most impressive show animation wise that I've ever seen, and still have room for thematic meaning. I LOVED all the animation in this episode, but Mogami returning and telling Mob that he has to be hard on people, that kindness isn't always the answer... I mean... it kind of defeats the whole message of the show up to this point, but what Mogami says is true. If Mob can be kind and tough when he needs to at the same time, he'll be invencible.

What I try to say by this is... how beautiful that a show this entertaining is also this thoughtful. You watch some badass fights, and learn something in the process that can actually affect how you approachlife in the real world, when not watching cartoons.

Mob Psycho might actually be THE best action anime ever. We're seeing a classic in the making here, folks. I can't be happier for being able to witness it unfold in front of my eyes.


It's not contradictory to Mob's theme of kindness and goodwill. Strictness is merely a way of conveying something to people who were too immature to listen to others, and in fact Reigen beating the shit out of Scar, Mob wiping the floor with Teru in season 1 also use the same strategy. Mogami is simply giving Mob the awareness of strictness as an option in any ideological clashes he shall face in the future.


Yeah, Agree. I mean, it doesn't defeat the purpose of the theme. It just... gives you another more realistic approach to it. You can't always be just kind in the real world, and in the Mogami arc we see that Mob has just been incredibly lucky to have good people around him in his life. So, what I mean is that it might feel contradictory, but it actually gives more nuance to the themes. And is all the better for it. Because for people like Mob being strict is pretty hard to do. This episode surprised me in so many ways is crazy

"Little boy's ANGERY completely takes the shit out of an Adult in seconds"

Damn, Shimazaki got roasted so hard, not only by Reigen, but by Mob Himself in his ANGERY form. Guess Mogami's words really got on him this time.

And damn, the animation was really NUTTY today :0

Again, how was it rushed? There were 3 main fights in the ep and it was all handled quite well. What in particular felt rushed to you? Nothing felt rushed to me, these fights were built up over the last eps and now they're finally kicking off like we expect them to.

I've thought for a while now that KyoAni was the best anime studio, but after what Bones has done with this season of Mob, I might have to change that previous stance.

first i still liked the episode and the anime as a whole this are minor things to me but

I said before the dialogue was very fast paced to the point were if I looked away for a second I feel like i missed 3 scenes the fight scenes like the one with the jar thing felt rushed and didnt make an impact on me, same with all the fights but with the dude who could read movies which was also really long but felt kinda stereotypical shounen end were the bad guy wins until most of the good guys are done then the good guys get like some power up for some reason and starts to win. (i know the bad guy came back with his own power) but then gets stomped by mob who just happened to be there.

im not saying it was bad just to me not as good as the other eps and as i said rushed.

I'm afraid I honestly don't get what you're getting at. Is english not your first language? Not trying to offend, just genuinely curious. I didn't have much trouble keeping up with the dialogue with this ep because it was interlaced pretty nicely with small breaks amidst all the action, the solutions to the ep also felt like they were handled well enough too like Mogami's release defeating Minegishi, which worked as Mogami was practically kept as a checkov's gun from ep 5 after being caught. I thought that scene in particular worked the best because of the shift in atmosphere afterwards with Mogami trying to teach Mob a lesson before passing on, the color shift and restoration after we see Mogami simmer his evil intentions was done quite well imo.

Studio Bones have made so much Hero Academia, they've gone beyond, PLUS ULTRA on the budget.

Mob Psycho budget: ???%

I noticed that Mob said to Reigen that Shimazaka is too powerful and he should step back.

Mob is no longer joking that Reigen has any powers.

Well... he knew the truth from the beginning after all.

He said something similar in season 1 when Reigen confronts Ishiguro and the Scars. For some reason, Mob made the distinction between espers and psychics, and he sees Reigen as someone who specializes only in spirits but incapable of handling other espers.

Wow..

Just..

Wow..

They went all out, Bones has outdone themselves. The battles were freaking amazing. Especially the battle with Shimazaki was outstanding. The Sakuga animation, the choreography and cinematography, mind completely blown. Also Mob getting some action and it's as if things just keep getting better and better.. Best episode so far ???/10 if you ask me.

Reigen in the end with his "self-defence" move caught me off guard, so it did for Shimazaki.

Sho and Ritsu arrived to the tower but Shimazaki appeared, Ritsu tried to entertain him while Sho entered to the tower. In his way up, Sho encountered Hatori, but defeated him easily. Mob encountered with other espers and Minegishi, they started a fight and Matsuo appeared helping Mob, but Minegishi attacked him and the espers broke Matsuo's vial, releasing Mogami, who attacked the espers, defeated Minegishi and disappeared. Ritsu was about to get defeated but suddenly Teru and 7th division's espers appeared, they all started to attack him, eventually, Teru started to predict Shimazaki's movements, but Shimazaki used other technique, Mob and Reigen appeared, Shimazaki escaped. Sho found Toichiro (his father) and Serizawa, they are about to fight. Mob decided to go alone with Ekubo, but in the tower he encountered with Serizawa.

Very well done in animation and dynamics, fluency of the animation and characters movement was outstanding. For the first time we saw Shimazaki falling and despite it was like 7 vs 1, demostrating how strong he is, it was amazing. I thought it was completely fucked up when Mogami got released, but now, he's kind of friend of Mob, so, good job.

You really don't make any sense. None of what you said is even correct. It seems more like you're trying to play the role of the contrarian. If you're going to play that role at least give some actual reasons other than saying "it's rushed because I couldn't keep up". Nobody else here has voiced that concern. It's just seems like you're really slow which is completely understandable if english is not your native language and you're bad with subtitles.

@NorwegianJap ???

I could keep up with it. What I meant by was to fast was that each scene seemed to want to just end quickly and everything was fast paced. Like i said during that fight with the plant dude agasint mob it just felt rushed. No really other way to describe it. Like I said the fight and the dialogue just seemed to be weirdly paced.

Incredible episode again.

Bones went all out, holy shit. The animation, fight sequences and the direction were just off the charts. They went for whole new level of high, lot of unique shots like the fps perspective made the entire thing so entertaining and incredible to watch. They put all of heart into making this, props to you Bones. Keep it up!

Reigen taking out Shimazaki was hilarious, SELF DEFENSE RUSH!! XDD
That said, the part where Mob's anger scares the ever living shit out of Shimazaki was amazing. xD

Can't wait for next week, I bet it's gonna be even better.

Yep because Shimazaki was concenrating on only the espers. All his focus was on power so when powerless Reigan walked up to him he got wrecked.

Tremendous fights that showed in this episode. The most powerful spirit appeared again. Teru and the others beat up the blind psychic, and Reigen finished him with other of his incredible "Attack in Self Defense" techniques. LOL ๐Ÿ˜‚. Claw's boss thinks he's the strongest psychic, but Mob will lower him from his cloud and take away his self-proclaimed title.
I hope to see a great fight in these last two chapters of this season.
