I was wrong, however. I thoroughly enjoyed this show. It manages to be humorous, well directed, and well animated and just a gorgeous festival of eye candy.
First, the elephant in the room. Mob Psycho 100 has an extremely ugly aesthetic for its artwork. I'm not the biggest fan of it, but after watching several episodes it grew on me.
The true heart of the show lies in the animation and its story. It follows the young Mob and his attempts to become more popular while working for his con artist boss Reigen. While he's busy liberating money from suckers, Reigen is still a pretty nice guy and has a good life philosophy of being a pacifist and an "adult". But then the show goes off into hilarious trolling moments of Reigen's "special abilities." I also had quite a bit of respect for the way the show ended in the last episode.
Whereas the artwork isn't the greatest, the animation will go into wonderful sequences utilizing different angles for the camera and fluid movement. It's a real treat to watch.
