A narrator speaking in the manner of an old-fashioned storyteller reminds you of an annoying nerdy friend? This was a conscious decision that not only helped build the tone for a scene but also functioned as an efficient way to unambiguously give the audience information. Did you think it was an accident of "anime being anime" that in a show with flourishes of animation utilizing traditional visual media, there might also be similarly non-essential but deliberately evoked stylistic techniques drawing from older storytelling media? Hell, when the narrator talks about how Mob's emotions expand little by little, he draws out his enunciation for emphasis in the way a grandparent would read a story to their grandchild, how the wolf was going to huff, and then puff, and then bloooow the house down. Just how much of a modern anime stereotype is it to have your grandpa occasionally walk into the room to explain the naive hero's secret emotional turmoil, and also the fact that he loves milk? Terper posted:But the abstract visuals themselves (and the accompanying music) made a perfect job of spelling out what was happening, you didn't need the narration to spell it out. The music and sound effects perfectly sold the "calm before the storm" and Mob telling Dimple "This is what happens when I show my emotions" would clear up any questions. You have Mob fixating on "Get a clue", showing all these scenes as the colors are drained or emphasized, the words for all of his emotions first being free but then all being caught inside him and storming about while the counter goes higher and higher and louder and louder until finally it reaches 100. Just add the RAGE kanji and there ya go. Yes, that could get the point across intellectually, but emotionally and tonally the narration style is serving a purpose that more modern "show, don't tell" method of storytelling could not. And that's evoke a sense of old-fashioned, wistful nostalgia.

The next episode is going to be the best one ever, and this one was really good as well. I'd go as far as saying that this episode has saved anime.

The Body Improvement Club was the correct choice. The Body Improvement Club has warmed my heart and saved anime all while looking swole as gently caress. The Body Improvement Club almost makes me want to put down this dr pepper and attempt a squat. Almost.

It's great how the Body Improvement Club is basically just a group of super-nice muscle nerds Also, eagerly awaiting the next episode. I said in the manga thread that I'm gonna judge the entire series on that one, and from what we've seen so far, I'm pretty confident it's gonna rule.

The Body Improvement Club is no-joke one of the best parts of Mob Psycho 100 and they don't get to appear nearly as often as they should. They're all super nice and supportive, it's great.

Between the body improvement club and Saitama's training regimen, I kinda get the feeling that ONE really wants people to work out.

On the staff front, episode 4 was solo animated by http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=124400 (this means they drew all the key frames, they didn't do all the inbetweens of course)

They're all super nice and supportive, it's great. They are the best and my favorite supporting characters, even above Reigen and Dimple (who are both excellent). I love the manga, and this show is just knocking it out of the park. Unless it manages to burst into flame and careen into a ditch, it's looking like we're 2 for 2 on ONE adaptations.
