Mob Psycho is a brilliant anime and a did not fail to disappoint considering it coming off the back of a massive anime like One Punch Man. The art and animation are amazing especially how new and refreshing the art felt to me, the soundtrack was well done with the highlight being the OP but at some points I expected it to do more for me. The soundtrack did a lot of things well, but it did not blow me away like how I would expect a Yoko Kanno or Yuki Kajiura soundtrack to sound like. The story was great as well as the mini-arc based set up let it fully explore its themes without them feeling rushed by the amount of time available to them. And finally the characters were the stand-out of the series, as the not only felt genuine but added a lot of soul to the series.
The art style here is one of my favourite from recent anime. Studio Bones returned back to old form with this entry, as the art style seemed expressive and fresh. The anime felt like it was conceived by a crop of new animators as some of the techniques that were used and animation choices that were made were new to me. The animation quality still felt consistent throughout the 12 episode run, and the expressive art style didn’t suffer because of it.
