Character development / progression is the name of the game for this season, most especially to that of Mob. I enjoyed this season more than S2, which was widely regarded as a masterpiece by most.

The two main arcs to look for this season are "Divine Tree Arc" and "???% Arc", with the "Epilogue" capping it all off at the end. This season is all about Mob. Mob can be seen finally being himself, as he tries to overcome his fears of his own power and the emotions he has been suppressing for years. He is attempting to be more of himself than the expectations placed on him. And in the end, he is able to freely express himself and is no longer afraid of his own power.

We also get to see Mob in a different light, where instead of being the benefactor or giver offering assistance with his psychic power, he is the beneficiary or receiving end, with the casts surrounding Mob doing their best to support Mob. This is evident throughout the season, particularly in his interactions with Ekubo (Dimple), through which Mob finally understood Ekubo and saw him in a whole new light, while also learning more about himself. The plot of this season was the result of previous seasons' buildup, and it ended with a satisfying conclusion. Also, a huge shoutout to Reigen. MY MAN!!!

Studio Bones was in charge of the adaptation for all three seasons, and the quality of the art and animation never dipped. The high expectations for Bones' adaptation quality in Mob Psycho 100 III were well deserved and reciprocated. The art style has not changed from previous seasons. In terms of animation, the fight scenes were well-choreographed, and everything was done with finesse.

As for sound quality, consistency has also remained throughout the seasons. Needless to say, the OP and ED were bangers, and they were supported by excellent art and animation. Both OD and ED fit the overall vibe of the show. The ED visual also did pretty well in trying to say "Mob is the center of attention for this season". Was there ever any doubt that the VAs would not live up to their expectations? Again, no complaints.

I know I definitely come across as someone who only praises the show and makes no criticisms. But honestly, I can't think of any flaws in this season, aside from the filler arc of "Telepathy Mini-Arc", and even then the arc was pretty entertaining, and did add value to the show. People who have been following the Mob Psycho franchise will not be disappointed with this season. The premise, the pacing, the execution were all flawless. Honestly, I'd give the show an 11/10 if I could. 'tis a shame the series has ended.
