What happens when one of the strongest espers in the world just wants to live a quiet, ordinary life? Mob Psycho 100 blends incredible animation, emotional storytelling, and deeply sincere character growth as Shigeo “Mob” Kageyama learns to navigate friendships, self-worth, and overwhelming psychic power. Guided (and exploited) by the ever-questionable Reigen, Mob’s journey is equal parts hilarious, touching, and awe-inspiring — with some of the most creative visuals in modern anime.
