Random Curiosity

「都市伝説 ～噂との遭遇～」 (Toshi Densetsu ~ Uwasa to no Sougu ~ ~)
“Urban Legend ~ Encounter With Rumors ~

It’s in the fitting of these disparate elements together that both ONE and the anime team really display the full heights of their ability, and in their hands even a seemingly routine episode like this one becomes truly exceptional.

「ビリビリ ～誰かが見ている～」 (Biribiri)
“Someone is Watching”

I’m going to need a few minutes to bask in the glory…

「モブと霊幻～巨大ツチノコ現るの巻～」 ()
“Mob and Reigen: A Giant Tsuchinoko Appears”

I can sum this one up in three words: it was great.

「師匠~leader~」 (Shishou: Leader)
“Master: Leader”

Reigen has been Mob Psycho 100’s most perplexing character right from the beginning.

「巨悪のオーラ~黒幕~」 (Kyoaku no Aura: Kuromaku)
“The Heinous Aura ~Mastermind~”

Nope, there’s no way I’m going to list all those characters – you’ll just have to look ‘em up.

「爪”～第7支部～」 (Tsume”~ Dai 7 Shibu ~)
““Claw” ~7th Division~”

The stakes sure have been raised quickly here…

「兄ペコ～破壊意思～」 (Ani Peko ~ Hakai Ishi ~)
“The Older Brother Bows ~Destructive Intent~”

No question, the last two days have offered an object lesson in the sometimes harsh realities of anime production, courtesy of two of the Summer’s best series.

「昂揚～喪失を手に入れた～」 (Kouyou ~ Soushitsu o eniireta ~)
“Exaltation ~I’ve Obtained Loss~”

One of the things that I especially like about Mob Psycho is the way characters who seem to be very minor players at first keep turning up, proving themselves to be important to the story.

「不調和~成るために~」 (Fuchouwa: Naru Tame ni)
“Discord ~To Become One~”

Mob Psycho 100 is firing on all cylinders right now, plain and simple.

「OCHIMUSHA~超能力と僕~」 (Ochimusha: Chounouryoku to Boku)
“OCHIMUSHA ~Psychic Powers and Me~”

You know, if you guys would just take my word for it what the really great shows are going to be, we could all save ourselves a lot of time…

「馬鹿オンリーイベント～同類～ (Baka onrīibento ~ doorui ~/i>)
“Idiots Only Event~Kin~

The farther you wade into Mob Psycho 100, the deeper it gets.

「集いへの誘い～簡単に言うとモテたい～」 (Tsudoi e no Sasoi: Kantan ni Iu to Motetai )
“An Invite to a Meeting ~Simply Put, I Just Want to Be Popular~”

You want anime? I got your anime right here.

「青い春の疑問～脳感電波部登場～」 (Aoi Haru no Gimon: Noukan Denpa-bu Toujou)
“Doubts About Youth: The Telepathy Club Appears”

Mob Psycho 100 wasn’t the first series this season to really get started only with its second episode , but it’s certainly the best.

「自称霊能力者・霊幻新隆～とモブ～」 (Jishou Reinouryokusha Reigen Arataka: to Mob)
“Self-Proclaimed Psychic Reigen Arataka: And Mob”

It’s time for Summer 2016 to bust out its “A” game.
