Review of Mob Psycho 100 II

SS Review – Mob Psycho 100 II (Short and Sour) Wow…just wow…Bones you have outdone yourself. Okay the story follows a boy who is a psychic (esper) and his master which is also a “psychic” (that’s a joke btw) as they take on cases of the supernatural kind. Mob (the protagonist) had trouble controlling his powers and decided to work for his master (Reigen) so that he can learn to control his psychic powers. Reigen is the kind of psychic you would probably see on the back of a magazine and think is rather shady (I wonder why?) and doesn’t really help Mob with his powers in theway you would expect. Anyway this is the second season so I would recommend watching the first before this, first season is really good as well anyway.

Animation is amazing, Bones has outdone themselves this time but then again they always do. Fight scenes are animated beautifully and fit ONE’s style (the original manga’s author). I love the fight scenes and the scenes just before a commercial break and after as they look like the manga but animated and show how some events come to pass. OST is amazing too, I love the theme that plays when Mob goes 100% it’s so eerie yet fast-paced. Opening is done by them same artist as the first and is great, pretty sure Mob Choir (the name of the artist) is a collaboration between a bunch of artists. Either way the opening is great.

Mob’s character I really like because he’s kind of a boring character personality wise but as the series progresses he becomes more interesting and his personality grows too. Reigen is master manipulator and kind of uses Mob, but his personality grows over time too. He also has other friends but I haven’t really got much to say about them.

I loved this series and if you like One-Punch Man or shounen series in general you’ll love this. I would regard this on an another level just due to the writing and animation than other shounen series.

So go watch it!
