Every Season of mob takes some episodes to actually start for real. This episode definitely was the real start. I missed being into a story like that, actually being tense in some moments, so I'm hyped for what's to come

I was expecting some twist where the Psycho Helmet wasn't Dimple but it looks like I was wrong. And now it looks like the whole city but Mob has been brainwashed, though I still think Reigan was acting.

why? the anime insisted on the fact that Reigein was acting and moving like the other brainwashed people, with the finger pointed towards Mob. i m pretty sure he isn t acting. he also suddenly switched side, he was the one wanting to move the tree in the first place, remember? He doesn t care about other brainwashed people, he only wants to grow grapefruits

Its the fact that we don't see him eat the candy or anything like that, like Ritsu does.

No surprise that Dimple is the one pulling the strings behind the Psycho Helmet religion and now he's completely taken over the city by brainwashing them. They even got to Reigen, so now Mob is the only person left. This might be Dimple's way of convincing Mob to become the founder and both of them can rule Seasoned City together. The fight between the founder and Hanazawa was good, but the founder was too much for Hanazawa.

Ngl, I usually don't care about the battles in MP100, but the buildup to this one is really exciting. I guess it's at least partly because the villain this time is someone we have spent time with?
I can't wait to see the confrontation between mob and dimple!

I m pretty sure Smile can take possession of someone without the candy. In this case it would not be brainwashing with the candy, just possessing their body.

This reminds me of that bleach episode where everyone forgot Ichigo. Man, that was nerve wracking. Hope at least like Rukia, at least the blonde kid is with him.
Mob losing everyone. No family, friends or even his dear comerade and still choosing to go out there to fight.
Doubt many anime can match, let alone top, that level of character development.

10/10 episode. The best so far.

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.

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?


Think you're very much exaggerating here lmao. Episode 2 and 3 had some fucking great animation.

The atmosphere gets a bit scary when everyone is brainwashed. Will the MC's emotions explode when someone important to him is brainwashed? can't wait for the next episode.

Good episode 4/5

People are praising this episode and all but I'm not getting the hype out of this, it wasn't a bad episode, just an okay-ish episode I guess. The way Reigen suddenly started saying that everyone needs a leader and that we should respect that religion or whatever was... weird... I hope he's really brainwashed because if he's not then what he said really came out of nowhere, it made me cringe quite a bit, the script there was just kinda lazy and cheesy, it's like the only purpose for him saying that is to make Dimple look like a "good guy, to have him as a leader because everyone needs a leader, yada yada..." and that was just too cheesy.

But whatever, let's see how the next episode goes, I'm not a fan of Mob Psycho, I didn't like the previous seasons that much either and this season is no exception, just a 6/10 or maybe 7/10 anime at best for me.

Tfw you can't put two pieces together and guess what is happening during the episode and so you immediately paint it as average.

Mob Psycho is just not pulling the right strings on me, it never did, I'm not just blaming this episode, it's the whole anime. I just can't get in the mood for Mob Psycho for whatever reason, that art style is not helping either, it's one of the reasons I can't get in the mood, I simply don't like the way it looks but even the story is not hitting the mark for me as I don't find it that interesting either, I just can't get in the mood but whatever, I will finish it anyway since I hate dropping animes.

Mob is getting ready to kick some ass! My boy! This is a great return to everything that's going on in the city.

I wonder if Reigen and Ritsu will be able to break the hypnosis.

The animation was excellent this episode. So many different angles, the movements were so smooth... It's really unusual to see this level of animation with such an art style.

Mob Psycho 100 is literally one of the best looking of the decade, it should be way more than just having some great animation. Both episode 2 and 3 only features some animation during the climax of their episodes with few character acting here and there. Moroever, shots like Serizawa running in ep 2 or plant roots coming out of the ground during the meet-up in ep3 have this annoying camera shaking which I guess is more of a storyboarding problem than an animation problem both of them are related, once again significantly worse than how someone like Itsuki Tsuchigami boarded and animated it previous season.

Episode 4 on the other hand is brimming with animators : [https://twitter.com/Nakayasee/status/1585296170816970752] not only because of past connections with Yoshimichi Kameda/Yuzuru Tachikawa but also from the episode director of this episode who even brought the director of Bocchi the Rock for animating on this.

Edit : In case, you want to see Tsuchigami's animation

Great ep, feels like a damn movie. The buildup is real

Hanazawa's the goat. Feels like he's the only one left on Mob's side. There's probably more people like the plant guy tho

How tf did Reigen get brainwashed?

So Dimple is the main villain again damn...


Did you forget Dimple used to have powerful brainwash ability when he was still evil spirit before stripped of his power by Shigeo

now he become more powerful than he ever was brainwash someone with zero psychic ability like Reigen is piece of cake for him

also i don't think Dimple is main villain. this is only 4th episode and we still have 8 episode left so it's too soon for final villain. he's more like sub boss more than a final boss

Holy fuck, the atmosphere in this episode was insane with the slow realization(or maybe supposition) that the city might have been "taken over" and Reigen too might have been brainwashed. Hard to believe Dimple-sama is the one doing this though he might not necessarily be the final boss. Somewhat similar to STR though I was more creeped out by this.

So basically Dimple is harnessing the power of The Tree of Might, gotcha.

Ah that ending along with the insert song just hit all the right notes! So hyped! Awesome episode, definitely the best of this season so far, can't wait for their epic clash!
