Mob Psycho 100.... When i first watch this anime. I thought that the 100%, or the percentage thing is suppose to represent the moment when our MC (shigeo kageyama) gone psycho or something. But it was alot more interesting than just that. This is like the typical anime's transformation thing in an anime. Like Eren turning into a titan, goku going super fucking saiyan, or the typical rage mode, or character's god mode or some shit. But this anime has done it differently, uniquely and interesting. The moment when our MC reached the 100%, that's just the outburst of emotions that our MC has kept enclosed (to not use his power at all in order to live a normal life). It could be anger, guilt, sadness, and all of the other potential emotions out there, with different latent abilities that has yet to be animated, or has already been.

Some people may not be able to tolerate this anime's art style because it looks kinda sloppy, drawn by kids, drawn for kids, and some other non artsy artstyle because you usually came to watch an anime for em arts, rather than just solely the story. But for this anime, it fits. The good thing about this anime, aside from its terrible looking art that doesn't really bother me when i personally watched the anime, the fucking animation is insanely good. And btw the mangaka, or the main artist for mob psycho is the same dude who drew the manga for the original one. In which a fucking better artist (Yusuke Murata) decided to re draw it into a better quality. But all of that aside, that should pretty much tells you the reasons as to why the artwork for mob psycho is like that. But the thing that i like the most about this anime's artstyle is the paint brush, or just a very detail drawing of the character's face when it's not meant to be in color. It just makes this anime even more funny and so unique, that i personally like this artstyle alot.

The structure of the story follows a very clear indication of trying to introduce the characters, setting, personality of various characters, and showcase mob's insane psychic ability before the actual arc comes up.

On the outside, this may seem like a typical comedic anime but really, this anime has some of the deepest and logical argument in them. It's an argument that go against delusional beliefs of superiority just because you surpass at doing a certain things, in comparison to others that can't. And that changes once the people of the same talent came into your world of self delusion. And that's what i like about this anime's philosophy. And one of them of them included people who fail to grow up as an adult. One of the example that supports this would be those people in prison. Check out "Gordon Ramsey prison ep 1", type that on youtube. It's legitly educational in term of what we should identify em prisoner that hasn't actually committed murders, or charged for rape as. And it does add up to that belief that there are those people who abuse their power against the weaker individuals, still acts like a kid mentally despite being such a growth up. This applies to normal, or people in our society that hasn't commited crime as well. One of those being the singers, idols, business owner of a very big company, and those that fail to mature, or grow up through the period of time.

And btw this anime is fucking lit, the action is amazing (animation and character's facial expression on the art style is insanely hyped), comedy is pretty fun (though may seem like the anime is buying time, or isn't really that necessary for the anime to progress), and the 100% hype is awesome. Give it a go if you haven't even watched this anime yet.
