It’s been a while since Mob Psycho 100 fans caught up with Mob and Regen, but the anime is returning during the fall 2022 season. It got a lot of attention during this year’s Crunchyroll Expo, where attendees were able to watch the premiere and learn more about upcoming episodes. But what do we know about anime so far?
The story follows Shigio Kageyama (aka “The Mob”), an average middle school-aged boy with psychic abilities. In order to avoid losing control of this power and consequently hurting those around him, he lives a life under constant emotional bondage and works as an assistant to Regen Arataka, a self-proclaimed spirit medium. decides, so as to help him learn how to control his abilities. But with his suppressed feelings slowly building up inside the crowd, his power threatens to break his limits as he eventually encounters other espers like him.
Mob Psycho 100 is a very interesting anime, to say the least. The first two seasons transcend the boundaries of shonen through an approach that has revitalized the entire genre. Amazingly stunning animations, amazing characters, a great story and a healthy dash of comedy. Everything you could want in an anime and my personal favorite by a long shot.
