Storyline

The series is set around the espers, evil spirits, and mysterious organizations attempting to rule the world. Our protagonist, Shigeo Kageyama is an average middle school boy who is nicknamed Mob. He earns that name due to his lack of presence. The mob does not stand out too much and looks like an unnoticeable entity but he is in fact an omnipotent esper. Initially, Mob only used his power to impress his crush, Tsubomi Takane, who soon gets bored of his tricks.

As he grows up, he understands how dangerous and harmful his powers are to others and in order to not let his powers go berserk, he lives controlling and suppressing his emotions. The mob is determined to live a normal life and keeps his emotions suppressed but when his emotions surge to level 100%, he goes into a berserk trance. To get effective control over his powers he enlists under Arataka Reigen, a con artist who claims to be a psychic. Reigen exploits Mob by making him exorcist the ghosts. Now, exorcising on request of Reigen has become Mob’s daily life.

Currently, Mob Psycho 100 has two seasons with 12 and 13 episodes respectively. Season 1 covers chapters 1 to chapter 50 from manga and season 2 covers chapters 51 to chapter 90. The anime is an exciting roller-coaster with everyone finding their identities.
