Mob always tries to put in the effort in all his actions, it's so easy to do everything with his powers but he would rather put in the effort and labor. What's life if everything comes to you easily?

[@daniell.3395]

I came back and was thinking about this! Like, he tried to do it without his powers cause... He doesn't want to be defined by them. He also keeps it hidden for that reason But he showed Emi his powers and decided it's okay to use them to accomplish things you normally wouldn't as long as you don't use it selfishly and help those around you. Maybe reading into it too much but that's what I felt watching this scene again.

"I happen to be an esper" I love mob. Even though he's one of the most powerful beings on the planet, to him it's just a trait that barely defines him. Mob is more defined by his goals, faults, and bottomless heart.

[@MrGeorgeFlorcus]

It's really the whole point of his character; Mob is a meek, socially/emotionally stunted middle-school kid, who, as he puts it just "happen(s) to be an esper." And that's the aspect the show focuses on it terms of its plot and development.

[@epicbruhmoment6985]

I think the point a lot of people miss with Bullies probably due to their own experiences with them, is that a bully doesnt do things that go so far they can't consider them selves the good guy anymore, they find creative ways to put others down without really doing anything that could be brought back to them. Being content with being purely awful isn't something a lot of people can live with so they feed themselves a story about how the kid deserved to be bullied, or how it was just a two sided interaction where both people were rude. I always prefer seeing these kinds of depictions rather than just cartoonishly evil bullies you often see.

[@Squishito]

@@epicbruhmoment6985 This is a perfect description. Very, very rarely do people see themselves as the villain in their own head. Even serial killers are known to rationalize and excuse their actions. This is why school bullying is far more insidious and difficult to stop in reality as opposed to exaggerated examples in fiction. They border the line on what is acceptable and subtly cause harm, usually using social dynamics and ostracizing. And in their minds, they are not a bully, some likely don't even fully comprehend the damage they naturally cause with their behaviour.

[@kajixdn]

@@epicbruhmoment6985 Yeah I think most writers tend to use their own experiences and their own views on that experience when they write about characters getting bullied and the bullies themselves. An example off the top of my head would be Harry Potter. In my opinion almost all the bullies and bad guys in it are 1 dimensional and comically evil and when they aren't they tend not to make too much sense or be as sympathetic as JK Rowling intended. No idea if ONE ever got bullied but if he did I think his writing shows that he probably thought a lot about who the bullies were and why they did what they did.

[@Lifeandrootbeer]

I think alot of people missed the point of this ending scene/relationship. The girl never falls in love with kageyama, because like he says, why would she just because he has psychic powers? The whole show is the antithesis to typical contemporary shonen where the main character who's always a guy gets several different girls all over him JUST because of his special powers/skill/Destiny/whatever. They never even really actually liked each other, beyond mob feeling moderately excited that someone showed him interest. No substantial romantic feelings ever developed. In place of that though, they both taught eachother how important and valid moments of real friendship are. She's the same as mob, where instead of psychic powers, she's a good writer. The show places repeated emphasis that you having a specific skill/power doesnt make you more important or deserving than anyone else. Mob is neither more or less deserving/valuable than her and vice versa. Therefore Mob showcasing his powers is both vulnerable for him, but also just....him helping out a friend. That's it. The same way she opened up and let him read her novel & he experience that sort of plain, but necessary kind of vulnerability we all need from our friends. They don't owe one another anything more for the other's fondness & friendship except for their own fondness & friendship. In one episode, this show throttled an entire genre of anime. Lmao

[@stinkypinky4696]

Amen ONE is a genius writer. Thanks for pointing this out

[@TheBrownestFalcon]

yea, while it's nice to see people wanting Mob to be in a relationship and rooting for that, that's...kinda missing the point? you hit the nail on the head dunno if you've read the manga, but this comes up later on too, and it's great that ONE wrote it the way he did

[@spencersdh1]

To be fair, the show goes out of its way to defy genre norms at every turn, but it does it so naturally. It feels like One is writing his own genre with Mob, so far outside of the shounen genre that he has to lead you on with familiar tropes, just to emphasize how different it is, and how it doesn't need to rely on them for story or plot devices. He's a genius.

[@juanpablorobayo9891]

[@kkav4586]

While everyone is commenying about Mob's and Emi's kinnship, I'd just like to comment about how well Emi handles the situation here. When she goes to help Mob, she doesn't yell or cry at the bullies like most anime girls. She just smiles and tells her friends they can go without her. It's a mature dismissal, but they can still be friends after this. They have no reason to shut her out as she doesn't go against them in anyway. The dismissal makes them feel a little confused, embarassed and maybe little childish too. But it's suddle, so they can't point it out. So they go, without making a bigger scene and fools of themselves. They probably will think about that moment by themselves. Emi shows here that she does have a backbone. But she doesn't have to lash out to show it. And I really like that.

[@SLV-Cr0w]

I definitely relate to Mob on a very personal level and I'm sure a lot of people do as well. With the exception of the psychic trait, he's just like everyone else: an average person who's troubled and also trying to figure out how to properly express his emotions as well as other ordinary and mundane aspects in life. Romance, social cues, academics, aspirations, dreams and physical fitness, we all struggle with these things one way or another and I think it's beautiful how ONE wrote Mob to be not just a typical overpowered shonen protagonist, but a relatable one who wants to connect properly with everyone else and this scene truly shows the growth and maturity he's developed since Season 1. Great episode to start the season and New Year.

[@FancyTophatDude]

Hell yeah! More than anything Mob is also just such a good person. He's not jaded, he sees the good in everyone around him. He might be naive, but he immediately feels bad for not telling the truth and he while he doesn't have a lot of self-confidence, he sees everyone else as genuine people - even if his held back emotions make it difficult for others to see that.

[@spoony8485]

I mean I think it’s one of the best anime/manga ever for this purpose (not just this purpose, but partially) Everything in the show can and will relate to you in a certain way, wether it be Reigans struggles to find himself, or what truly matters to him, mobs ambition to become a more like able, social able person, (spoilers for manga) dimples hidden kindness towards mob and how his main ambition wasn’t to rule the world, but to just make a friend (spoilers over).

The most fascinating thing about this show is that Mob is the most powerful being on the planet, and yet, he is constantly struggling to be better than he is.

He didn't trust himself, or his desires, because he knew he could or would hurt someone with his power.

This scene was so precious. I love how mob really takes reigen’s advice to heart.

I like how that’s literally not at all how it works though. Mob himself even said that she wasn’t ever going to date him just cause he has powers, which I think is pretty cool and goes against how most shows do these things

[@klystron2010]

Also the ability to Dooooo the ladies.

This is why it's hard for me to relate to Mob here even though I had a very similar experience once, fake dare girlfriend and all that. Except I couldn't bust out superpowers to impress her anyway at the end.

I mean to be fair, he did only use it when it was just the two of them. He probably felt that he didn't want to show his powers off in front of the others.

@@obijuan__ he was picking them up because he truly cared and there was no need to use his esper abilities. He only used his ability because they got blown away. That's why at the the end he mentioned that he "happens" to be an esper

Arent we all missing the point that mob after reading the novel only once is able to put it all back together in the right order although?

[@itsdanielhimself]

Thank you. Finally someone said this. It’s one thing for Mob to have restored her novel; it was another to have put it back together in the way he remembered reading it. The little touch of Emi quickly reading the page and her smiling afterwards makes this scene as it shows that Mob really did pay close attention to the words written on the pages.

[@Wizardofdoom2]

I love Mob. In other shounen, when there are super kind characters, it feels kind of forced. Mob is a great exception though. Mob's kindness feels genuine.

[@pearlyp9898]

I think that Mob's kindness feels so real and impactful because we've also seen his flaws - how he can get angry or conflicted or frustrated, how he can hurt people. That it's because he knows he can hurt people that he tries so hard to overcome that and be the best person he can be to others. So many cinnamon roll protagonists' flaws are limited to 'they're too selfless' or 'they're starting off weak', and while those can certainly be interesting concepts to explore, that exploration has to go deeper into how it truly is a problem to be believable, imo. (Like how Mob has those flaws as well, but since they manifest in repression that in turn branches off and creates conflict and builds onto so many aspects of his history and personality, pointing out those simple 2 flaws would barely scratch the surface of what's going on behind his character.)

It's a little sad we don't really get to see Emi and Mob hang out as friends after this, but it was a really good scene showcasing the importance of being genuine.

[@lilyl5492]

for a meta take you could see Emi as not just a writer, but THE Writer. Artist stand-in or an archytype, someone who creates worlds and has god-like powers in the fiction they create. Anyone can have superpowers in fiction, it's 'not special', but, can the characters have good growth and believable relationships to self and others? Perhaps Mob as a character helped ONE take his creative feelings seriously too? enacting what feels important... just a thought.

[@shewolfinubaka]

I love the sound effects they used for when the paper scraps are being reassembled it’s beautiful but also it’s like you can hear how devastating that power is yet it’s being used to make something so delicately it’s terrifying yet beautiful and it’s all about how it’s being used and who’s using it
