I had a whole lot to say about this one! Episode ten really dug into the general societal concerns that seem inherent in ONE’s work, from his diagnosis of a callous meritocracy to his framing of the proles forced to work in such a system. It’s not the most complex of setups, but there’s still plenty to dig into there regarding ONE’s own perspective. Also a bunch of psychic people beat each other up!

As a number of folks noticed in the MP100 ANN discussion thread, your review doesn’t touch on the key post-credits scene at all. If you didn’t notice it in time to check it out, it’s definitely worth returning for a watch.
I really enjoy reading your weekly reviews on Mob Psycho. You seem to pick up the subtle nuance and details I haven’t noticed, and make me appreciate the show more! By the way, did you watch the scene after the ending song? You didn’t mention it in your review so I wondered… I heard that the director’s twitter asked the viewers to watch till the “very end of this episode”. And that was SOME plot twist.
