As we already know, 2nd season will end with episode 13. Most of you thought "w t f how they will adapt rest of manga, there are material for like 6 episodes?!?!?!"

But season 3 will air and it will just cover both end of mob psycho 100 and newest reigen spinoff

That doesn't even make sense. The last chapter is an important conclusion for the final arc so you can't separate it.

I think they finish this season in Vol 12 and make a movie to adapt the last 4 volumes, or a season of 10 episodes adapting everything including the reigen manga

They can add 2 episodes of filler and make another season with ease.

I don't think you realize the magnitude of using fillers. Both seasons of Mob Psycho so far has used virtually no fillers at all. Even the random Reigen skits were canon content put under slightly different chronology. To actually insert enough filler for two episodes would drastically affect the flow of the narrative.

It's just two episodes, it would barelly affect anything.

All they would have to do is make something similar to Urban Legend Arc with some random side quest.

Urban legend episode was actually a worldbulding episode crucial to the mental development of Mob as well as a cornerstone setup for Mogami arc, and its role is very evident in hindsight. Everything Mob does in each episode is not random but rather a reflection of his character growth. Similarly, filler content cannot be easily inserted because it would have to fit his character which is constantly evolving at every moment of the series. A lot of people feel that the first three episodes of this season is very chill, when in fact there is a ton of development going on underneath.

Sometimes the filler is nessecary for a series to be made due to strict rules regarding the airing time. If I have to choose between another season with two filler episodes or a movie that terribly rushes the sourse material, I will choose a full season.

As I said, a large part of the problem lies with fitting the fillers properly with the narrative; it is not undoable, but it's extremely tricky and I think BONEs, having pretty much nailed the storytelling so far, realizes that. Furthermore ONE is especially particular when it comes to character consistency as is evident when he works with Murata on OPM, so halfassing that is definitely no go. The safest strategy would be to either simply greenlight a 10-ep season or to ask ONE himself to whip something up to fill in 2 episodes (a stupidly rare case for short series which would ideally preserve the style and consistency while pacing issue is minimized but not resolved). This all goes back to the question of whether it's even worth from a production standpoint to even adapt a third season.

First of all we have no idea will there be another season or not. This is a passion project for Bones and we really don't know does the franchise bring enough money for producer committee or do they see there is still potential for this series to continue.

If there is another season, I think there is still enough content for another 10 episodes (or even 11, but 12 is another story). Here is my layout for the season 3:



Konosuba or the next season of AOT all have less episodes than usual so I don't think a shorter season will have any problem.

Or maybe instead of a third season they could make a couple movies to finish the series. I think having 2 movies could work since there are 2 mayor arcs left to adapt, each one preceded by some slice of life parts.
Either that or a short season, that works too.

Reigen spinoff should be the final arc imo. It shouldnt chop off mob's story and it also works as an nice epilogue. Putting it in the middle just to fit the timeline feels weird.

To be honest, I'm not overly ecstatic with how Bones are handling the pacing of the series' second cour thus far. While it's clearly had its share of jaw-dropping moments, its narrative felt a tad bit cluttered in places. Don't get me wrong, though, this season of Mob has been quite the spectacle so far; the art direction is eye-poppingly gorgeous, the sound design is as cutting-edge as ever, and the steady, but fast-paced development of each of the series' characters within the structure of the narrative has left quite the lasting impression on me.

People said the same thing about FMA:B
“It’s rushed” “ it’s skipping chapters” “it’s needs more episodes”
Yet it’s #1 on MAL.

People that read the source material over react sometimes.
Anime is a different medium not a coloured copy and paste of a manga

Season 1 covered 50 chapters in its 12 episode run. The manga ends at Chapter 101, which is 51 more. Season 2 is 13 episodes.

Season 2 will be able to cover it, no questions asked.

Impossible. We are currently only at chapter 88, which means that the anime has been steadily adapting an average of 3.5 chapters per season. Two more episodes is not nearly enough to finish the manga.

And that's just simplifying it for anime-onlys. Manga readrs should know that, current arc included, the upcoming 3 arcs are all split into a dozen sub-chapters, so each full chapter is actually far longer than the ones in season 1.

At this point it should be very obvious that Bones does not intend to adapt further than World Domination arc in this season. There's simply not enough episodes for another arc, not to mention three.

Looking at it through its number of chapters would make no sense when the chapters 90-100 are incredibly lengthy and divided into subchapters. They're so long that they can almost be their own volume. MP100 has 16 volumes, and the first season adapted a bit less than 6 volumes. With the way the second season is being paced, it will probably end 1/3 into volume 13, which means that it would adapt around 7 volumes. That leaves another 3-4 volumes left for another season.

Yeah man, at first Manga had 9 chapters per volume, while last 3 volumes have 2 chapters, so it is like 26 chapters, more or less. And one not adapted volume have 6 chapters, which are a little bit longer, so it takes 32 chapters overall I think
