So episode 2 is cross-dressing chapter and the telepathy club chapter? Sweet.

are we gonna hear mob's voiceover as an introduction to the solo mission part like in the manga?

I can't believe this is slotted as late-night.

so chapter 2,3,4,56

271KB, 869x1311px

so I'm checking out the other series about an over powered esper kid that only wants to live a normal life and holy crap it's terrible so far.

despite the more conventional art, half the page is there just to fit the massive amount of dialogue and exposition. how generic the protagonist looks is compensated by these weird head ornaments, no relation to the plot whatsoever. and of course there's no story, the "moral" is just laid out in the first chapter and the rest is a generic gag manga. it's a wonder they even bothered to animate this.

I want to hear the OP for the first time again

Alright let's get this straight
Reigen is pretty hot

>>144343962
The build up and the first 100% is what makes the dimple arc so interesting, don't pretend it would be half as interesting if mob never reaches 100%.

It's pretty good, that's why they animated this.

Why did people find ep1 boring? I wish the whole show was like this first episode.

It will turn into a generic action shonen won't it. Oh ONE, you're doing it again you silly goose.

>>144344426
Its funny i guess, sometimes. But its too much narration for my taste, everything he does has to be explained to us. Dosent suprise me tho its for young kids.

>>144344709
>generic action shonen
the president arc is like that. I don't know if it's going to be animated.

>>144344709
Well turning it into a generic battle shonen shitfest was Murata's idea. The anime just took that even further.

Fights in Mob are never for the sake of just fighting somone evil, its always to develope mobs character further.

>>144344858

>>144344919

>>144344919
>>144344927
>>144344939
Weekly Shonen Jump is literally the Hollywood of animanga as a whole. They produce nothing but garbage after garbage for generation and the only thing that matters to them is sales. This Saiki mango is literally bottom of the barrel trash and it's popularity in Japan only serves as proof that nips have shit taste in everything. I suggest you Saikifags get the fuck out of this thread because this is not a Saiki thread but a Mob Psycho thread aka AOTS thread.

How long will subs take after it airs?

>>144345073
I'm not a saikifag, i just said Saiki is more popular.

>>144345073
Dude i am a Mob Fanboy, I said its more popular which it is, nothing wrong about that. Being more popular doesnt mean its better just that it suits way more people. In saikis case tho it just has way more reach, being published in WJS.

>>144345550

Okay, I was actually mad. Mad about WSJ as a whole as you can see from my post. I'm mad because every promising series that I picked up from WSJ will turn to shit eventually and I've been bottling up that anger and frustration for a long time. It actually feels good to release that in that post as if I was looking for that moment.

>>144345632
What if I said that he's special?

>>144345890
Yeah, we do. That's why I was wondering about the guy, he's kinda mysterious.
And people sling the word autist around all the time now, it doesn't mean they know how to use it.

saiki's art is kinda rough, but is otherwise unotable

mob's art isn't great, but it has a lot of style

they're completely different tone and story wise, so there's really not much to compare

>>144346174
Because thanks to it's story Mob Psycho has conditioned you to it's "art"

>>144346174
The mangaka probably traced old manga when he learns how to draw. That's how I did thing when I tried to drew mango

>>144346142
Dude, stop throwing savant and autism around like its nothing. ONEs stories show day to day problems of normal millennials, a person with autism wouldnt be able to write such stories, they feel to genuine for that.

>>144346267
No i always found the art interesting, especially the covers of the volumes. Those were one of the reasons i started reading it. Saikis art lacks personality and soul you could say.

>>144346174
It's not the art that looks worse, but the feel and style of it. There's nothing put into it and it's just "wacky randumb lol".

>>144346364
Yea exactly combined with the huge amount of narration i would say its best suited to be in book form than manga.

When do you guys think will people start to like reigen, or when did you guys start to like him as a character.

the large amount of narration is part of the main gag of the series, that saiki is fully aware of the reader and the fact that it's a manga series and it's how he communicates in series

>Explain why is this bad.
because of the mantra of visual arts "Show, don't tell", images and words are two lines of communications the author has with the reader, it becomes redundant if you're just going to explain all of the images. this page could easily have been done differently with fewer panels explaining mob's inner monologue and his brother asking him if he's alright, but everything is communicated without a word and arguably with greater effect.

tangentially, there are a few youtube channels explaining how to tell stories with just scene composition and camera work, here's the most decent explanation I could find on short notice. basically different media have different strengths; if you can wipe an manga's page of it's images, reading only the text and still get the same impression, I'd call that a bad use of the medium.

> ONE: The only thing I asked the staff to do was to keep the anime’s Mob looking as close to the original as possible. But other than that, I’d rather an adaptation have some character to it than be a slave to the source, so I’m looking forward to seeing what kind of material the staff ends up adding to certain scenes, like Mob and Teruki’s fight. Or the sections I abbreviated in the manga.

>>144347552
So they will make an anime only scene of Tsubomi pouting? This anime is getting better.

>>144347331
That's probably just a portrayal of how Mob sees her, that entire scene was with the other girls having vegetable for heads and not registering on his radar at all and everything. We haven't seen her in a neutral setting yet, I wouldn't be surprised if she ends up being shown as very average at one point or another.

I've showed Mob to quite a few friends that aren't really all that into anime and only watch the really big more mainstream stuff, none of them found it appealing in the least. This show isn't at all how OPM was, I doubt it's going to explode in the same way

What i like about the girls in Mob psycho is that they feel like normal girls, just the type you might know too. Most shounen cant depict girls and idiolize them to no end. In mob psycho they are just as normal as the dudes.

>Most shounen cant depict girls and idiolize them to no end
That's what the demographic would do. They idolize the girl they like because she's the first they liked. Not trying to project here but that usually how it is.

>>144348188
I had no colour in mind he was just white or whatever colour, so green fits.

Scar when? Likely episode 7?

Even if he's green. He should at least be transparent since he's a spirit not a floating sludge.

Who is translating MP100 Anthology? Has the Emi chapter been translated already?

The readers can idiolize them how they want. But i think authors should step away from that and just write them as humans, not as pretty love interests only with no agenda of their own.

>>144348507
I think he means on the personality department not that they're just high/mid school girls.

Reading the interview, almost everyone in the animating department and director have guessed that MP100 is inspired by ONE's life that's why it seemed relatable or natural. Does the series feel like it has its own soul or inspiration?

Thats exactly what i dont like lol. They are gimmicky big boobed highschoolers wiht no agenda of their own. But Bnha is classic shonen so it has to check those boxes. If oyu look at the One shot he did, it had a totally different feel to it. The editor probably forced him to make it more generic.

I read half of it. Its not bad but also not good either really just as average as can be. Arent most of the girls just there to be there and look good. Though with the amount of characters he introduced most seem boring and just there

>>144347375
It makes sense from the narrative perspective that she's suppose to be the girl that defines Mob's ideal that 'My Psychic powers don't make me better than someone whose talented in something else' and wants more to his personality than just that.
Let's say for the sake of argument Mob has NO psychic powers and he meets the Body Improvement Club, for the sake of wanting her to like him he joins them because he wants to be a guy he thinks would impress her and as such is becoming a healthier person, which is never a bad thing.
So it makes sense for the girl Mob makes such a choice for looks 'prettier'. It boils down to opinion if whether or not you think she looks better but the choice to make her drastically cuter from her manga counterpart makes sense for Mob's motivations

>>144349097
In the anime she kinda looks conventionally pretty i would say. But not that far apart from tome or camera-chan as she was in the manga.

“Is it alright if I just keep drawing the way I do?” (ONE)

Q: Most of the fan response to the teaser seems to have been positive; I’ve seen a number of comments from fans of the original that read something like “It’s pretty much the manga, but animated!” and “The mood’s perfect!” What were your impressions, ONE?

ONE: I was dumbfounded—they put so much life into my drawings. And that made me reconsider my own style. I thought to myself, “Is it alright if I just keep drawing the way I do?” (Laughs)

TACHIKAWA: (Laughs)

ONE: After watching it, I sort of got the feeling that, ideally, my drawings would look just like they do in the teaser. The art hit all the right angles, and I feel like it’s a huge improvement over the original.

Q: Director, have you noticed any complaints from the fan-base?

TACHIKAWA: When manga get adapted, one of the biggest hang-ups amongst fans is atmosphere—or, more precisely, how much of it gets lost in the transition to animation. A problem we had to work out with the Mob Psycho 100 adaptation was whether we wanted to make Mob more handsome or go against the prevailing trend and keep him plain.

ONE: I’ve always had reservations about my drawings, so when I heard about the adaptation, I was worried about how the staff would handle the character designs. I was actually about to suggest that they could make Mob a bit sexier if they needed to, but…

>>144347596
I know, such a good guy

>>144349294

TACHIKAWA: …But we came to the conclusion that, at least for Mob Psycho, we’d be making a mistake if we did that. When I read through the manga, I couldn’t shake how eccentric it was, and I wanted to keep that spirit in the adaptation. And judging from how delighted the fan-base was with the teaser, I think we made the right call.

ONE: And it’s thanks to the hard work of the staff that we could keep the designs we wanted.

Q: Out of curiosity: did you ever consider the possibility of sexying-up both Mob and Reigen and turning Mob Psycho into a story of male friendship? For the female fans?

TACHIKAWA: From a production standpoint, having such a clear-cut goal would’ve actually made our job easier. We’d just have to add gloss to their hair, highlights to their eyes, and sparkle to their design. And we have plenty of animators who can do that well, but everyone on our staff actually loves ONE’s art. So we all agreed to keep the designs as close as possible to the spirit of ONE’s designs.

ONE: Mob’s meant to come off as somewhat standoffish or nerdy. If we made him into a supermodel, that’d force us to change a lot of the story.

>>144349241
fucking Nipland

>>144349294
>I was actually about to suggest that they could make Mob a bit sexier if they needed to, but…
Oh, ONE.

>>144349321

Q: How did you feel when you heard about the anime adaptation, ONE?

ONE: Shocked. Well, actually, no: I first learned about it when my chief editor sent me an e-mail. It read: “Mob Psycho’s been green-lit for an anime.” At the time, I was coming up on a deadline for my manuscript, so I just replied with a ‘Thank you.’ The morning after, though, I woke up and remembered something about an email and an adaptation. I was like, “Oh. Huh. Yeah, that was something.”

TACHIKAWA: (Laughs). That was your reaction?

ONE: Then I grabbed my phone because I wanted to hear someone say it (Laugh). Once I’d confirmed it with my editor, the realization slowly dawned on me—I just couldn’t believe it! It made me so incredibly happy.

Q: How about you, director?

TACHIKAWA: I was six volumes into Mob Psycho when I heard about the adaptation, and… well, to be frank, the announcement made me really anxious.

ONE: (Laughs)

TACHIKAWA: The big question was: how could I keep the adaptation faithful to the source? I drew a massive blank—honestly, I don’t think anybody had a clear-cut idea of what an adaptation would look like. But, while I was fretting over how I’d approach the adaptation, I came to the realization that the show would be an opportunity to try out a number of new ideas.

>>144347959
Well, I can understand where you're coming from. However, one of the upcoming arcs should bait some of them in.

>>144349367
Shut up already, what dafuq do you even want? Not everyone is a anti social idiot like you. Its not a sign of weakness to talk decently with one another. What a absurd person you are.

>>144349427
Mob is quite japanese and weird. It wont be easy for people to get into it. The beautiful Art an Animation makes it easier than it was in the manga tho.

>>144349344

Q: What were some of the difficulties you had?

TACHIKAWA: I mentioned this earlier, but I want to make sure that I preserve the strange, inexplicable atmosphere of the original. I love the way ONE uses panels and plans out his pages, but the way that the adaptation looks in that regard will have to be different. I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about how to best engineer a similar mood. I’ve been thinking especially hard about how to translate some of the most impactful pages into animation, and I’m testing out a bunch of ideas.

Q: I realize that I’m speaking very abstractly now, but I feel like Mob Psycho 100 is a pretty good show to try out new forms of expression in?

TACHIKAWA: Absolutely. I think it’s very receptive to new visual ideas. I’m going to have a lot of fun playing around with it.

ONE: The only thing I asked the staff to do was to keep the anime’s Mob looking as close to the original as possible. But other than that, I’d rather an adaptation have some character to it than be a slave to the source, so I’m looking forward to seeing what kind of material the staff ends up adding to certain scenes, like Mob and Teruki’s fight. Or the sections I abbreviated in the manga.
Q: In my opinion, one of the manga’s draws is how well-paced the jokes are. I feel like this might be hard to preserve in the anime?

TACHIKAWA: You wouldn’t be wrong. We’re paying very close attention to tempo and character interaction. But even then, what’s funny varies from person to person, so I can’t really tell if the audience is going to find our versions of the jokes very funny. All I have to work off is reactions to the voice actors’ performances.

>>144343627
>wow, the gag comedy manga has no plot

>>144349549
Is this just sarcasm or what does that even mean. Does dafuq trigger something for you? Dafuck better?

>>144349294
>make Mob a bit sexier

Oh ONE you are truly a funny guy

Q: I’ve noticed that much of the cast, between Reigen’s Sakurai and Dimple’s Ootsuka, consists of veteran, talented voice actors. However, Ito Setsuo, who voices the main character Mob, is a complete newbie. What informed your casting decisions?

TACHIKAWA: I wanted Mob to have a voice nobody would recognize; I wanted the voice actor, just like Mob himself, to be someone relatively unremarkable. We had a huge number of candidates for the role, but in the end, Ito’s voice most fit my idea of Mob.

Q: As of yet, we haven’t heard anything but Reigen’s voice. I’m very much looking forward to hearing Mob’s voice!

TACHIKAWA: He’s got a very plain voice. In a good way. Funnily enough, Itou wasn’t all that fazed despite being around all that talent in the recording session. I expected him to be nervous and stiff, what with Sakurai, Ootsuka, and a number of other great voice actors around him, but he didn’t even blink. Maybe he’s just an airhead.

ONE: I had this thought this during the recording session, but he’s pretty Mob-y.

TACHIKAWA: Yeah. And as for our shady Reigen, Sakurai does have an air of mystery about him, so we thought he’d fit the bill.

Q: Dimple’s voice actor being Ootsuka seems like a pretty natural casting decision.

TACHIKAWA: Well, I’ve always been a huge fan of Ootsuka. But besides that, we wanted a voice actor capable of convincingly playing both the role of a cult leader and a pathetic blob; everyone agreed that casting a veteran voice actor would be the best decision.

>>144349765
Shut dafuq up i said. Goddamn you guys get so offended about trivial things.

TACHIKAWA: I think Mob’s interesting in that he’s a character who actively rejects his superpowers, saying, “I don’t need them to live.” You see a good number of stories featuring protagonists who eventually get overwhelmed by the power they possess; Mob Psycho is special because it doesn’t do that. Most of the characters either want powers or want to use their powers to push their ambitions, but Mob doesn’t. And I think that it’s going to be an interesting source of conflict that Mob doesn’t want his powers and Reigen doesn’t have any powers. I’m curious as to what your intentions with Mob Psycho are, ONE?

ONE: I wanted it to be something that feels kind. When I came up with the concept, I was thinking something along the lines of ‘kindness’ or ‘the connections between people’. It ended up being an action manga, but my original idea was a slice-of-life that happened to include superpowers.

TACHIKAWA: Now that you mention it, I think I get a bit of that kindness. We’ll do our best to realize your vision… That being said, a question: did you model Mob on yourself?

ONE: That… uh, no. I didn’t. (Laughs)

TACHIKAWA: Oh! Well, when the staff was reading through the Mob Psycho together, the topic repeatedly came up. You give off a very rustic, simple air. A good-natured vibe. As for me, well, I’m a bit of the opposite. I think it was Kameda (Yoshimichi), our character designer, who said it, but… uh, he called me “real shady” (Laughs). And then he immediately went on to talk about how much of a good person you are. And you honestly do come off as a decent person, so we were wondering whether Mob was based on you.

ONE: I’m just pretending.

TACHIKAWA: (Laughs)

773KB, 567x900px

When will tumblrtards/redditfags finally realize that they're on a different site from theirs?

ONE: Really! I’m just trying my best to come off as a good person (Laughs). But I think Mob’s not pretending; he’s a bona fide good person. He’s almost an ideal protagonist. In situations I’d run away from, I want my hero to stay and face the threat; in times I’d throw in the towel, I want my hero to persevere. And I feel like I gave Mob those heroic traits.

TACHIKAWA: There’re a lot of characters in Mob Psycho 100, but strangely enough, I don’t get a bad vibe from any of them. You’d expect to dislike at least one character out of such a large cast; I don’t, though, and that’s weird.

ONE: Well, Dimple starts off as a pretty nasty dude, but… Well, I wanted to give Mob an otherworldly partner, so I came up with a pretty weird one in Dimple and his fireball design. And I guess, yeah, he ends up becoming a better person over time.

TACHIKAWA: He’s not too bad, yeah. (Laughs)

ONE: But even with Dimple’s concept, I wanted to build on the idea of a protagonist who changes people’s lives. Dimple softens up as a result of spending more time with Mob. I wanted to make this theme very clear through the character relationships, whether those are the relationships between Mob and Reigen, Mob and Ritsu, or Mob and Teru. The pairs all interact very differently, but I think they’re thematically very similar.

Q: I noticed that, in the credits, there’s a mention of Fullmetal Alchemist’s Yoshimichi Kameda doing the character designs. Will he have a hand in the animation as well?

TACHIKAWA: Absolutely. We’re also having him supervise the animation.

>>144349858
ONE confirmed not a nice person

what does he look like anyway?

Q: I believe there are a good number of anime fans who are looking forward to the action scenes for his involvement?

TACHIKAWA: Thanks to him, a good number of scenes turned very distinctly Kameda-esque. Episode one will feature a Reigen scene with very lively comic colors.

ONE: The facial expressions are pretty incredible as well—they’re a joy to watch. I didn’t know Reigen could make those faces.

TACHIKAWA: Kameda always goes over the top. He always gives you a bit more than you ask for (Laughs). If you imply that you want him to do his absolute best, to give it 100%, he’ll go away and return with 150%. I think he works best when you ask him to operate at around 80% capacity.

Q: I thought I caught a lot of Kameda-isms in the teaser.

TACHIKAWA: That makes sense. He did all of that himself, after all.

Q: What about the music?

TACHIKAWA: Oh, that’s just something we’re using for the teaser—we had our composer, Kenji Kawai, whip something up. The soundtrack for the actual show is going to be pretty amazing as well. We’ve got a wonderfully themed piece for our con man, Reigen, and we’ve got some nicely Showa-influenced tracks. The soundtrack canvases a large range of musical genres, so it’ll be something to look forward to.

ONE: I haven’t had the chance to listen to the soundtrack yet, so I’m excited.

Q: Do you listen to anything while you draw, ONE? When you draw action scenes, do you listen to livelier songs?

ONE: Nope. I pretty much only listen to bands like Spitz.

Q: (Laughs)

TACHIKAWA: Even the music he listens to is pretty good-natured (Laughs). Come to think of it, volume 2’s cover art reminds me of a Spitz album cover.

>>144349807
I honestly don't even know what shithole you crawled out of to type like that.
Might want to clue us in?

Q: Oh, you’re right! (Laughs). Lastly, is there anything you’d like to say to the viewers at home?

ONE: We get a lot of positivity from our fans overseas, don’t we?

TACHIKAWA: There’s so much pressure (Laughs). I’d like to promise that, even though it’ll eat up a chunk of your day, Mob Psycho’s going to be so exciting that it’ll be over before you know it; you’ll be so engrossed that you won’t even want to get up to use the bathroom. The show’s meant to be pure entertainment, something that you can laugh at without thinking very hard. But at the same time, we’re aiming for visual ideas that haven’t yet been seen in anime; Mob Psycho will ideally be like opening a box of very fun surprises.

ONE: I think that, with the addition of animation, voice acting, and music, the Mob Psycho 100 anime is a fresh take on the manga. I won’t be missing an episode, and I’m looking forward to following the anime with all of you.

Exactly, the interview implies that Tachikawa was reading Mob even before the anime project was announced. That means he probably read it for enjoyment. If he stick around for 6 volume, I'd assume he knows what Mob is about hell of a lot more than someone who read it because it's part of the job.

My reason may be different than others, but for me it's because she is eccentric(when she isn't lazy), a nerd and not stereotypical girly like Tsubomi. And most importantly, she thinks outside the box, which i consider a sign of intelligence, and for me intelligence is attractive. Trying to get into contact with aliens with psychic powers, because science has failed so far? Just amazing thinking in my opinion(especially in a world that actually has psychics)

ONE still owns both so they can do it.

Probably because it's One's version, and that one is simply a free webcomic

Was it better then the first one? I enjoyed ep1, but the humor was a little bit obnoxious. And I love Reigen, believe me.

If anything, the humor on the 1st episode was slightly forced. Reigen seems to be more of a round character here.

different taste for different people. Although I think they cut the joke short in some parts, at least from the manga.Overall, it's still good if not better.
