| Great episode Mob is so op! |
| Hi there |
| Poor Mob, seems he is a good person. I wanna know more about what happened that day when he and his brother were younger. This episode was intense, Mob's power over ???% was a super exciting moment~~ |
| That was absolutely awesome! |
 |
| Damn that was a good episode! Might end up as my season favorite! |
| Shigeo really has a nice brother. Now I want to know what exactly happened because that was obviously a lie. Also who would have thought that the rules Shigeo uses his abilities by came from that fucking fake :D He seems to have some brilliant non-asshole moments every once in a while. The fight was a bit boring. Mostly because it was so one-sided (in both situations). Kinda want to see Shigeo fighting with his full power again. But as awesome as his unconscious form was I couldn't enjoy it fully because he was fighting so hard against using his abilities to resolve the situation D: |
| Boi, the guys over at sakugabooru must be having field day with this one. |

| this episode legit made me shiver p.s. can we stop comparing this to OPM and just enjoy both shows separately? |
 |
| Best episode so far, One knows how to do tone shifts without it feeling jarring somehow |
| Sup... |
| This episode was fantastic and beautifully done. The action looked so awesome. I felt bad for Mob the whole time. Him not wanting to use his powers made sense. My favorite moment is when Teru's hair was cut off and it said 0%. That was so hilarious. I'm very excited for the next episode. |
 |
| There were too things that made me love this episode. One was the amazing action and animations, the other was how complex Mob's character really is and how he deals with morality. 5/5 |
 |
| It's official, this is my favorite anime of the season! |
  |
| WOW this episode was so intense & quite emotional for Mob. Teru is quite crazy, but Mob is on a completely different level. ???% cannot even be measured. That art on his face when he went berserk & the overall animation of the battle was outstanding. That incident with Ritsu & those bullies really impacted on Mob. Ekubo gone & Mob didn't really care LOL. |

| Pretty good episode. Reigan can be a decent teacher without using insults every once in a while!? What a shocker!! Kinda sad to see Ekubo go specially after that little sort of montage of moments he spent with Mob. Definitely sad to see Mob crying 'cause he feels like he hasn't changed... Ritsu though, he still has this vibe to him. When he is with his brother he is a perfect little brother, he seems to envy Mob's powers but appears terrified of the ??? mode. Then again I can't think of people who wouldn't be. |
| The animation is phenomenal, but many confuse animation and style. |
| It is so dense. Every single image has so many things going on. |
| Totally loved it! Finally the backstory starts to show, hope the series get a better score. Btw, I'm a little sad cause it seems they scrapped this awesome scene (or is it supposed to happen later? idk ): ) 5/5 |
| Great episode as always. Teru ended up being a good character. Mob's brother is kinda... creepy? Shigeo is a great character, I'm loving his development so far. |

Wolfman_Jan said: Yeah, for those who have an interest in animation at least, it's pretty much the biggest sakuga "library" out there. Sakuga fans in the west and Japan have taken an interest in the Mob Psycho anime in particular because of the high-profile staff and the very promising previews, and if Sakuga Blog's columns are anything to go by, then the show definitely lives up to the hype in the animation department.Sapewloth said: Boi, the guys over at sakugabooru must be having field day with this one. Is that site pretty big in anime fandom? Only recently discovered it via their related blog (really cool to read articles so focused on the animation itself). I think they didn't include this because it clashed too much with the cleaner/low-detail artstyle of the episode. |

| It's the best anime of the season, imho. The first 5 episodes are better than OPM. |
| F0XFIRE said: OP 4 most butthurt bitch on MAL. |
| What an outstanding episode. At first I was a bit bothered by the slightly different art style compared to before, but as soon as things started kicking in I was just mindblown. I don't think I've ever seen better amalgamation of humour, action and dramatic moments than this in an anime before. |
| 5 main aspects I base my ratings on: 1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it? 2. Is it better than Breaking Bad? 3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it? 4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL? 5. Is it actually good? Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant... |
| This episode was excellent. The trhill of the fight, the laughs of the 0% hair, the surprise of the ???% Mob and the most crushing experience of the 100% Sadness. The feeling of wanted to change and being incapable od that is a soul crushing one. Stay strong Mob. |
| Best episode so far! Just the way an epic anime should be. It made me feel a lot of emotions, not to mention to ??? badass Mob that scared the hell out of me. 5/5 |
| if mob psyco 100 was horror i will scared to death when ???% is awaken |
| Into the Internet! |
| I didn't think Dimple would be taken from us so quickly. I really hope he comes back somehow. It's interesting to see how his powers behaved differently when he was enveloped by sadness rather than rage. This has become my top of the list to watch each week. |
| Wow. Animation was so fucking good it made me want to cry. This episode was so amazing, I'm at a loss for words. It's saddening that this anime won't get the recognition it deserves because this easily blows a majority of what this season is airing. |
| I really did not expect those tears ;_; Great episode. |
 |
| Baby brother is putting out some creepy vibes. >_> |
 |
| agreed with the 100% sadness being a bit tone down and i did want to see everything put back to place cuz idk it made everything more depressing. still teared up tho :( that scene is still some of the most epic artwork in the manga but it was done well here too! all of the scenes with teru were so great, really hilarious. Matsuoka really has done an amazing job voicing him. bones is not disappointing, they are making a lot of memorable scenes and are doing a good job at getting some of the main themes out there. |
| I like how just like the school was destroyed and then reconstructed, so was Teru. This episode was perfect, it got me excited, got me giggling, and got me with the FEELS. The whole scene with Mob showing sadness was emotional impactful. |
| I have no idea how this continues to have under an 8 on MAL lol. |
| MOB CRYING BROKE ME. Gawd, I'm so glad Bones is animating this series, they do a fantastic job. The story is getting more and more interesting. Can't wait to see Ritsu's arc!! |
Edited for clarity. The clarity of the sky (implies purity) in addition to the nudity (nudity and shaved head implies unrefinement and the following) and helplessness of Teruki seems to depicts the notion that people that offer little commitment are no better than others when stripped of their innate traits and social status, which is why Mob is working to improve himself and reduce his dependence on psychic powers. The inclusion of the tree (Adam and Eve tree?) in the mid-ground with Teruki suggests the universality of this idea. Teruki's appearance also depicts a humiliating form. It seems to be punishment for challenging this idea. There are also other people in the background, which are clothed. My guess is it shows that everyone is prone to punishment to some extent. Punishment is suggested by posture of Teruki similar to that of the crucificattion posture. Teruki obviously received worst as he challenged this idea directly. The spoilers don't contain spoilers. They just hide the large images. The high altitude of Teruki seems to suggest that either realising this is enables a person to gain new heights or only once you reach the epitome of arrogance, you realise it. I am leaning more so towards the latter guess because Teruki is later seen falling back to earth and you know what that saying means. Mob is forced to use his powers once again to revert the damage he caused. It seems like destruction but he's reconstructing it. A contrast is apparent here. Construction is generally connoted with joy. However, this scene clearly depicts Mob grieving. I believe this contrast is a testament to the tremendous extent of his grief as Mob is deprived of the joy of construction. It is instead the contrary--the source of his sorrow. Tbh, I would have remained apathetic towards Mob's suffering if it wasn't for this scene as it was quite melancholy. The series is starting to get better. Episode 1 was a 3/10 for me. Episodes 2-4=5/10. Episode=5.5/10. |

| lol i feel like the brother of Mob will become an enemy in the future |
| Omg amazing and emotional episode. Hmm does Ritsu hate shigeo or something? ? |
| Japanese sakugafans also screaming "Norio!!!!" when they saw this scene in the beginning of episode. But he wasn't credited in this episode. It's either he did some KA in this episode but uncredited, or it's someone else and Norio is busy with Naruto. Either way, I'm really satisfied with the animation. Keiichiro Watanabe's cuts are probably the scene where Mob goes into ???% mode. The animation resembles his work on first episode. Also, maybe anyone has noticed that the OP is slightly changed, to give hint for future arc. But there's also a piece of animation from the PV that was not used/changed in this episode. From : https://sakuga.yshi.org/post/show/24870/animated-debris-effects-fighting-impact_frames-mob To : https://sakuga.yshi.org/post/show/24862 The first one is drawn by Yoshimichi Kameda, as he already confirmed that all the key animation in the 1st PV was drawn by himself. Probably the cut for episode 5 onward weren't ready at the time, so Kameda himself must fill in for the PV. Now we have 5 episodes, and Kameda still hasn't touched anything besides episode 1, it might be he's working on latter episodes. Can't wait to see his animation. Also, Mob Psycho still has another trump card, that's Ayako Hata. I think she will handle one episode as Animation Director, because she also contribute her illustration for Newtype magazine.

ReigenArataka said:  Teru, 2nd best boy about to blow. Should have been a perfect episode but I don't like the reconstruction scene. I feel the manga was better. BAAAAAAWWWLLSSSS |
ONWARDS! Away from homework and on to more anime!!! |
| Best episode so far and things from now will keep getting better and better. |
| Enjoyed the episode but was slightly disappointed they didn't make Mob more detailed when he went 100% sadness like they did with 100% rage. I feel like the crying scene would've been more heartbreaking if they did. |
sadpwner said: Funnily enough the show (as well as the manga) do seem to follow up on the overall theme of punishment after the sky scene, most notably with the Black Vinegar delinquents and their description of what happened to Teruki, going as far as to call it a "brutal execution". Not that it wasn't brutal, mind you, but I still find the choice of words interesting (and funny as hell).The clarity of the sky in addition to the nudity of Teruki (purest form)+ semi-shaved head seems to depicts the notion that people in essence are just "average" in the end i.e no better than others. The inclusion of the tree (Adam and Eve tree?) in the foreground with Teruki suggest the universalness of this idea. Teruki's appearance also depicts a humiliating form. It seems to be punishment for challenging this idea. There are also other people in the background, which are clothed. My guess is it shows that everyone is prone to punishment to some extent. Teruki obviously received worst because he challenged this idea directly. Teruki's body is posed similarly to the crucifixion pose. sadpwner said: I think both interpretations work just fine in Teruki's case, considering that his demeanor and his words after he gets brought back down to Earth do seem to suggest he's reached a new level of understanding. Plus The high altitude of Teruki seems to suggest that either realising this is enables a person to gain new heights or only once you reach the epitome of arrogance, you realise it. I assume it's the second because Teruki is later seen falling back to earth and you know what that saying means. |
