You anime only folks have no idea, I didn't like either character for quite awhile, but they slow burn into amazing, also body improvement does indeed get better, until slowly falling to the wayside. (sadly)

They pop up whenever they are truly needed, as all heroes do.

Also next week is make or break on the greatness test. If they can do it the justice it deserves, anime will loving kill fools dead. If not, it might just be drat good for the season.

I am so loving hyped for next week. Only 156 hours until the next episode.

I haven't read the beginning of Mob for ages so while I know everything that's going to happen next, the details have faded just enough that each new episode is basically new to me. Hopefully I can stop the bad habit of going back to the manga in the middle of watching the anime and seeing how they did things differently, at least until the show's finished.

anime is not good
the whole sequence involving the body improvement club rolling up to and through black vinegar middle was just breathtaking

even the loving background music was sublime

the animation this episode had a lot of character, even something kind of stock like a machine gun punch felt just delightful

The music reminds me of Muramasa the demon blade. Which is a sick rear end game, so I approve. They should make a Mob Psycho game.

No lie, where OPM failed to inspire me to start seriously strength training a few months back, the Body Improvement Club succeeded.

It bugged me that Teru's response was like the one thing not subtitled and while I can't read it super well, it seems pretty informal and positive? Like he's def agreeing to get lunch? I like that even though Teru's kind of a jerk, he's nice to his girlfriend and also signs his text with his name in stars

He's making a pun with his name. He's telling her to be a good girl and wait for him, and the word "wait" is written as "Matteru".

I don't know how there are so many good reviews. I couldn't even make it through the first episode. The blonde guy made me cringe almost constantly. Made Jar Jar Binks watchable. I had such high hopes for this since it's the same guy as OPM but it's just bad. The animation is even bad. Nothing like the awesomeness of OPM.

Source your quotes.

It's got a similiar joking 'overpoweredness' as OPM with the protags except similiarly they both have enough real life issues to deal with that it's interesting. Definitely seems like a coming of age story so far and I haven't even bothered marathoning through the source material yet.

a lot of people don't like unique styles or things that defy expectations in certain ways. modern anime is very clean and the vast majority looks almost exactly the same (the only difference being in the manga artist's style they try to emulate) so if that's what you want and like, shows like this one and ping pong would be easy to write off.

this show has great animation cus they show little details like Ritsu's head turning from profile to 3/4 while Mob's talking to him, that can be hard to do so a lot of shows would just leave him in a loop of the profile animation

I loved OPM's anime overall, and Murata's art is amazing, but if Murata wasn't so drat good at drawing, I don't think the high fidelity effort art of it would be nearly so interesting. ONE's art is utterly part of its charm, it's why Mob Psycho's anime is so good and as soon as I saw Bones were keeping it, I knew this adaptation would be great because it shows that Bones "get" Mob Psycho 100.

And it's been proven true so far. Bones absolutely understand Mob Psycho and why it's so good and EVERYTHING is top class.
