| Synopsis |
|
Kageyama Shigeo is an average middle school boy, called Mob (モブ means John Doe) for lacking a sense of presence. He is also credited as Salt Middle School's urabanchō known as White T Poison. Although he seems like an inconspicuous person, he is in fact a powerful Esper. As he grows older, Mob realizes his psychic power is dangerous. To avoid his power getting out of control, he constantly lives a life under emotional shackle. Mob wants to live just like others, but a barrage of trouble comes to him. With the suppressed emotions growing inside Mob little by little, his power threatens to spill over its bounds. |
So Mob Psycho 100's anime adaption is finally upon us, and the first episode will be airing in 4 days from today. We will use this as a discussion thread, but until then is anyone else excited for this? I assume most fans of One Punch Man will take to this series pretty quickly and hopefully it gets the recognition it deserves.
