Important Things | Mob Psycho 100 II 

The only people who can truly deserve Mob is the Muscle Improvement Club

The fact that he tries to pick up all of those pieces by hand instead of easily with his powers is so meaningful. This anime was a gem.

I love that Mob Psycho 100 is NOT a story about an overpowered esper beating the crap out of every bully he meets, but rather, it's about a young man trying to overcome his own mental and emotional barriers in order to be more true to himself. In the end, isn't that what we all strive to be like?

"I happen to be an esper" I love mob. Even though he's one of the most powerful beings on the planet, to him it's just a trait that barely defines him. Mob is more defined by his goals, faults, and bottomless heart.

This felt like real bullying not some cliche pushing over the new kid for giggles. These characters felt real

"I made the decision to consider my feelings more. And you need to pick up things you feel are important" I can't...that had me bawling

This is why the anime adaptation of Mob Psycho is so good, it takes moments that are done in a few panels and and amplifies the true meaning and emotion through animation, pacing and soundtrack to convey One’s intentions. This is how anime should be

I think alot of people missed the point of this ending scene/relationship. The girl never falls in love with kageyama, because like he says, why would she just because he has psychic powers? The whole show is the antithesis to typical contemporary shonen where the main character who's always a guy gets several different girls all over him JUST because of his special powers/skill/Destiny/whatever. They never even really actually liked each other, beyond mob feeling moderately excited that someone showed him interest. No substantial romantic feelings ever developed. In place of that though, they both taught eachother how important and valid moments of real friendship are. She's the same as mob, where instead of psychic powers, she's a good writer. The show places repeated emphasis that you having a specific skill/power doesnt make you more important or deserving than anyone else. Mob is neither more or less deserving/valuable than her and vice versa. Therefore Mob showcasing his powers is both vulnerable for him, but also just....him helping out a friend. That's it. The same way she opened up and let him read her novel & he experience that sort of plain, but necessary kind of vulnerability we all need from our friends. They don't owe one another anything more for the other's fondness & friendship except for their own fondness & friendship. In one episode, this show throttled an entire genre of anime. Lmao

That totally got me at the end. Such a good start for this new season

Can’t believe I actually felt like tearing up here. The best way to start of a season. Beautiful and well done. Smooth Mob, smooth.

animation 10/10

She is not impressed about his powers, she is impressed that he uses it to repair something precious to her, she is impressed of his golden heart.

While everyone is commenying about Mob's and Emi's kinnship, I'd just like to comment about how well Emi handles the situation here. When she goes to help Mob, she doesn't yell or cry at the bullies like most anime girls. She just smiles and tells her friends they can go without her. It's a mature dismissal, but they can still be friends after this. They have no reason to shut her out as she doesn't go against them in anyway. The dismissal makes them feel a little confused, embarassed and maybe little childish too. But it's suddle, so they can't point it out. So they go, without making a bigger scene and fools of themselves. They probably will think about that moment by themselves. Emi shows here that she does have a backbone. But she doesn't have to lash out to show it. And I really like that.

Mob is a pure cinnamon bun, we must protect him at all costs

You cut out the "smooth" part

I'd like to think that Mob had to remember how the story went exactly, in order to piece it back together in the right sequence. This would show that he actually was interested in what she wrote and be really endearing in a way.

i like how the girls in mob psycho 100 are actually somewhat realistic. They don't make the stereotypical feminine grunts that girls do in other animes, and they act like real people

Mob used Crazy Diamond

This goes to show that mob is purest boy

Bones did a great job with this episode. Mob and Emi's interactions was surprisingly endearing and organic. That scene where Mob used his powers to fix the novel is absolutely beautiful. Mob's development is compelling to watch and I look forward to seeing more of it throughout the season.

I cried. He's such a sweet boy. Didn't know it was possible to write such a character without it being corny or cheesy.

I wanna squeeze him, he's such a sweet kid

I like the soundtrack they play here, it's really nice.

0:48 - 0:52 Mob is the cutest gentleman to ever live

Mob Psycho 100 does shoujo better than most shoujo

I like how in season 1 the "get a clue" line would have either made mob go quiet in anxiety or furious, but here he just takes it and keeps doing what he thinks is best for someone. My boy got that CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT!

I definitely relate to Mob on a very personal level and I'm sure a lot of people do as well. With the exception of the psychic trait, he's just like everyone else: an average person who's troubled and also trying to figure out how to properly express his emotions as well as other ordinary and mundane aspects in life. Romance, social cues, academics, aspirations, dreams and physical fitness, we all struggle with these things one way or another and I think it's beautiful how ONE wrote Mob to be not just a typical overpowered shonen protagonist, but a relatable one who wants to connect properly with everyone else and this scene truly shows the growth and maturity he's developed since Season 1. Great episode to start the season and New Year.

Mob Psycho 100 Season 2 is a masterpiece. The characters feel so real and their motivations are believable.

This episode has already made me so hyped to see what else they can do

If she dosent develop a crush on him. I will.

I love how they portrayed those girls from the inside rather than out, Very hard to pull without someone screaming "animation sucks" and for others to erase all logical thinking and take it for face value. Can't wait!

IF MOB DOESN'T WIN BEST BOY 2019 FOR THIS SCENE ALONE WE ARE RIOTING

Smooth, Mob

mob psycho is the best anime out there imo. The animation, the different art styles, the comedy, the character development of every character, the fast pacing of the story, the unique themes, the action and the twists. It's great!

'i happen to be an esper.' Mob learned well and internalized the lesson Regan tried to teach. What he is is unimportant. It is Who he is that's the important thing.

replayed this scene so many times *smooth*

Mob is a gentleman almost made a tear come out

What I think is beautiful is that Mob was able to put it together because he knew where all the pieces belonged. He appreciated the writing even though she doubted his appreciation before this scene. He loved the writing and memorized it piece by piece. At least, that's what I like to think.

This anime is just so goddamn wholesome and unique. It’s really hard to find some really GOOD shonen lately. I may be feel exaggerated, but this is godlike. ONE is a magnificent storyteller

this is the most underrated scene in anime history

I love that Mob throughout season 2 is portrayed as an incredible person not because of his insane psychic powers, but because of his kindness and compassion that he shows to everyone.

The most fascinating thing about this show is that Mob is the most powerful being on the planet, and yet, he is constantly struggling to be better than he is. He, a veritable god on Earth, was bullied by other people and let others be bullied because he allowed it to happen. He didn't trust himself, or his desires, because he knew he could or would hurt someone with his power. In this scene, we see him take a stand against his own weakness, and overcome it not with anger, but with rationale and willpower. This is a brilliant set of stories.

This is the moment Mob Psycho went from a masterpiece to a treasure

1:15 this entire sequence is just carelessly beautiful. Reminds you of a time back when the world felt free, and you had a warmth in your chest

The irony of course is that while yes, she would never fall for him just because he has psychic powers, I could totally believe her falling for him for picking up her ruined book, one scrap at a time...

You have NO IDEA how beautiful I found this scene. The soundtrack, the animation, and both kids opening up a little.

😢😢😢This episode made me cry

If this episode made you cry... Oh boi you're gonna need a box of tissues for what's coming next 😢

This scene was so precious. I love how mob really takes reigen’s advice to heart.

This is one of the greatest scenes of all time. This episode was such a sweet vignette from start to finish.

Mob is probably my favourite anime character, I strive to be like him.

"With great power comes, the ability to Wooooo the ladies."

Mob too pure for this world

Still my favorite scene.. the music, the art style, the emotions… only Mob can pull it off so well. ❤

*all the pieces are blown away Emi: “It’s ok. I can always write another one.” *mob uses his powers to put it back together Emi: ... Emi: “Are you telling me that we spent 30 mins picking up all this paper when you could’ve fix it...in two seconds?”

what the hell... it's not a character death, or a massive weighty reveal or a scene of substantial inner or outer conflict, but this scene still made me cry like a baby... just down to absolutely masterful direction.

even after 2 years, i honestly think this is my favourite scene in all of anime. It's so simplistic but it gets me every time. Glad season 3 is here.

Dude, the soundtrack that plays at 0:55 made this moment in the episode even better

HOW DO U CUT OUT “Smooth”

What Mob did in this scene is what actual bravery looks like.

This what op anime characters should strive to be like

I love how natural her "what are we even doing" delivery was. that was really sweet.

2019 just started and we already found best boy

Arent we all missing the point that mob after reading the novel only once is able to put it all back together in the right order although?

1:08 And they say Murata is a better artist than One...

I love Mob. In other shounen, when there are super kind characters, it feels kind of forced. Mob is a great exception though. Mob's kindness feels genuine.

Your personality matters the most

I love that she didnt start fawning over him just because he showed her his powers. It really deepens the interaction between these two. She doesn't love him, because loving someone just for their powers would be shallow. I love this show.

this scene was everything... it belong in a museum

I like how when they were laughing he said "stop" pretty loudly (louder than how he usually talks) and says "this" more calmly after they stop. Nice little detail there :)

Bro their faces after she chose to stay and help Mob was priceless.

One year later and this masterpiece of an anime is still great. Who knew a simple but heartfelt story about a young esper coming to terms with his feelings would be so incredibly executed?

When i saw those tears man….

This was such a touching scene and they chose and composed the music beautifully to complement the moment he decided to reveal his secret to another person.

Reigen taught him to become a very good person

I think that this scene, with all of the context, is my favorite scene from any anime or other media period. Everything about it oozes with pure emotion and you can really tell how everyone involved in the series put their all into it.

The best possible way to start a season, the first episode was so cool, and the last scene.. omg it was superb, the soundtrack was just on point, the animation was magnificient, and the ending fit perfectly.

I can't even tell with words the beauty of this scene.

Still my favorite moment of this season even though it's been like 2 months since this aired. It's so heartwarming. Mob is best boy.

One of my favorite moments from the anime

Never has the start of a second season so thoroughly grabbed me. I can’t put into words how moved I was by this show. It’s proof again that anime can tell new, complex, and beautiful stories.

I fricken love this show, but this scene? This is the one that hit my heart the hardest. Mob is so wonderfully genuine. More of this anime please

0:45 this part got me hard - Mob is such a great character

I remember crying when I saw this for the Season 2 premier in theaters. Mob Psycho S1 was great, but S2 is where it became my number 1. Seeing Mob's development this season made me so happy.

The kindest kid ever

In the end, Mob's story isn't really about his powers but about a young man trying to find his way in this world, a truly relatable tale.

I get chills everytime I watch this.

Bruh, i was literally laughing in the middle of the eps and then crying at the end.

Tier S animation, camera angles, story.

It's a little sad we don't really get to see Emi and Mob hang out as friends after this, but it was a really good scene showcasing the importance of being genuine.

for a meta take you could see Emi as not just a writer, but THE Writer. Artist stand-in or an archytype, someone who creates worlds and has god-like powers in the fiction they create. Anyone can have superpowers in fiction, it's 'not special', but, can the characters have good growth and believable relationships to self and others? Perhaps Mob as a character helped ONE take his creative feelings seriously too? enacting what feels important... just a thought.

I am so glad more stuff is coming from this guy. Such magnificent things.

Jonathan Joestar estaría orgulloso :’v

I finally started watching season 1 a few days before season 2 came out and it is now my favorite anime.

Every time I come back to this scene, it brings me to tears. The soundtrack, the visuals, the heart, it’s all so wonderfully overwhelming. This show means the world to me.

I just love @1:48 Other times he has looked cool & tough because his face is contorted in anger, or his hair is all standing on end, or whatever. Here it's just a subtle difference. Here he looks cool but still looks like himself- the same eyes, round cheeks, pale skin and bowl cut- and the audience sees it along with Emi

I love the sound effects they used for when the paper scraps are being reassembled it’s beautiful but also it’s like you can hear how devastating that power is yet it’s being used to make something so delicately it’s terrifying yet beautiful and it’s all about how it’s being used and who’s using it

1:08 whoever made the decision to draw the girl’s faces like this is a genius lol

I'm amazed that this consistently makes me tear up. I think the music really sends it home and Mob's simple line of picking up the things you believe to be important.

Mob still makes me tear up after all this time. This is a good, honest, genuine man; the kind we should all aspire to be. Time to go rewatch the first and second seasons before watching the third one!
