Mob Psycho 100 Story
Mob Psycho 100, created by ONE (creator of One-Punch Man), follows Shigeo Kageyama, a teenage boy with no spectacular qualities at first glance.
Nicknamed “Mob” by his classmates because he doesn’t stand out in a crowd; Mob only wants to fit in.
He discovers fitting in is hard – especially as an incredibly powerful esper who has to keep calm to keep his psychic powers in check.
Mob meets Reigen Arataka, a medium who runs a psychic consultation clinic, and begins working for him in hopes that he can learn to harness his emotions and live that normal teenage life he’s always dreamed of.
Mob Psycho 100 received critical and commercial success upon its release. Originally serialized as a webcomic on Ura Sunday in Japan from April 2012 to December 2017, it was printed and released in 16 volumes.
Dark Horse Comics licensed Mob Psycho 100 for North American publication.
The first season of the anime adaptation, produced by Studio BONES, aired on July 2016. Season 2 aired in January 2019.
An English dub was helmed by Bang Zoom! Entertainment – they are known for dubbing many series, including Dragon Ball Super and Kill La Kill.
Mob Psycho 100 was also adapted into a live-action series for Netflix in Japan. It is available to watch worldwide for Netflix members.
