The best episode so far! I love the uneasy tension building throughout the episode and the song playing as Mob goes to confront the leader.
Also superb animation throughout the episode, even in the little scenes. It's so great how seriously Bones is taking this adaptation, I really appreciate it.

Pretty scary episode, especially the ending where he is also brainwashed without knowing how, or is he pretending? Mob is probably the only one staying normal in the town now.

That's so f*cking cool how Hanazawa turned used his tie as a light sword, and how he was the only one able to resist being brainwashed

I can see why everyone is so freaking excited for this arc. Not only is it because it's Mob vs. everyone, but because so much responsibility is being placed on Mob's shoulders, who must now make massive decisions based on a brainwashed(?) Reigen's reasoning. Although actually, it seems like Mob is absolutely laser-focused as he just walks up to the divine tree with the full intention of taking it down.

I wish I could've also been able to see the next two episodes in theatres.

The lighting and colors for the shots in this episode were fantastic. Also liked that they kept the speculative feel from the SM where it's up to the audience to realize what's going on and suspect other characters and make judgements off of reactions. Special ending song was good, and it's really nice to see this subplot from season 1 follow through here right near the end.

I never gave it a thought that Dimple could've been Mob's "impersonator", always held a grudge against that mf. I also have 0 clue as to how Reigen got brainwashed

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Psycho Helmet definitely seems a lot less disturbing now he's been revealed as Dimple...

The atmosphere of this show is still amazing though, and the OST compliments it perfectly.

I don't know if Reign is brainwashed, he probably acted like it to despise their followers. The only way to avoid them was pretending to be already brainwashed i guess
Dope episode, but i feel like the director putting the full fight, b4 the walking to the Divine Three section felt weird. The ending with the twist of reign, and Mob walking inside the three while people were praising mixed with the music was amazing.

The only problem for Mob will be if his brother shows up to oppose him.

And I bet that Reagan is just going with the flow again - he'll claim that he was brainwashed once Mob wins.

The overall episode was very good. There was a pace shift which I really liked. The main villain so far is shown to be Dimple, and the way they're tying in characters shown in other seasons is something I enjoyed. There's still more than half the season left so anything could happen, but with things ramping up, I believe it will only get better from this point on.

Yup, seems like every episode 5 in this series will have an epic fight against the mid-season boss. Can't wait to see Mob vs Psycho Helmet/Dimple.

...Assuming Dimple doesn't get obliterated and erased for good though, that'd break my heart.

Man, who would have thought Ekubo could cause this level of chaos? The city is all his at this point.

Great episode. Absolutely loved how the tension and creepy atmosphere were handled and the final scene with the new insert song was simply fantastic.

he got long range wave brainwash by dimple, dimple literally can see and watch anyone.

the finger pointing is the clue, dimple puppeteers anyone he brainwash make them suddenly workship the divine tree.

It was an ok episode, just preparing stuff for the next episode, it wasnt nothing impresive but just a point over average, Dimple must die or this will be a total bust/failure. 4 Ep and the season has been average at best, the OP is weak but I guess the better is yet to come, 6/10.

Amazing episode, I love the “town is being ravaged by mysterious threat” trope. Things got quite eerie at times, especially when Reigen suddenly got brainwashed. I can’t wait for more, Mob might reach ???% next week.

woah holy shit, yeah. this episode was great. started off with the big surprise that dimple is the "villain" (putting it on quotes bc im in denial😂😂). then silly reigen is back and the odd but fun trio with ritsu wooohoo!! but bro hadd to eat the candy and. and then flower dude died or something. and mob gets anxious again. and its a silly little chase game but its uncomfortable because it feels like not Everything has been layed out yet and then, reigen. he's been brainwashed too. mob is basically alone right now and fucking hell the way my heart dropped but im also so proud at how mob is handling it atm ? GOD i cant wait for the next ep

Dude is basically scavenging all the power that Mob and Suzuki couldn't contain within them. It's honestly arguable whether he could challenge Mob at this point in a straight up fight.

After the 3 average episodes this season (which might just be the 3 worst looking episodes in the history of Mob Psycho), the production quality has drastically improved. Every single shot involving characters from the very first second is moving atleast in some way, stark lighting in majority of the 2nd half (describing the sunset, not as good as S2 ep7), but still an excellent showcase and the imaginary camera being used again obviously, using 2d backgrounds. Mob Psycho is finally showing it's true colors. Not surprising Dimple was behind it because of the voice.



@SFirebolt @DiabulusPyrus
S2 Ep5 team is working on ep 8 this season and the character designer was hyping up ep 6 on twitter, I assume the big fight climax takes place the episode after the next one?

Episode 4 was a Rollercoaster ride of emotion and I'm really excited for the choices Kageyama will have to struggle to make. Its all been leading to this point and I'm truly impressed with the writing, its almost on par with AOT. anyways this episode was treat, emotionally and intellectually

You know things totally aren't right when for some reason people brings up the name of the leader of psycho helmet cult every other minute in a conversation. Enough to make a guess it's the brainwashing plague affecting the masses.

Reigen did notice the speedy spreading of the divine tree's roots beneath the city but it was Hanazawa who took the first action. Bones did what Bones does, eye candy visuals throughout the clash of Hanazawa and the leader, who's none other than Ekubo possessing the shell. They really elevated the stakes of this fight as it was back in manga.

Just when things couldn’t get more troublesome, candy did the trick.. and result even Ritsu’s in the brainwashed camp now, though for Reigen, can’t say.

Things about to become more messy next episode.

i found it interesting how the mangaka doesn't exactly tell us if Reigen was infected or if he actually came to that realization himself. Based the type of person Reigen is, i think its possible he sympathises with the Psycho helmet followers and doesn't want to take away something they believe in, since he's just as lost as they are
