Started reading yesterday, up to chapter 56 now, and Reigen is easily the best character in this series. :allears:

I really like how, while One Punch Man is a parody of the typical shounen fighting series, Mob Psycho is more of a satire, so while they both do functionally the same thing with very similar premises, they still manage to maintain their own identities and tone. You can tell ONE really has a lot to say about shounen manga, at least.

It's hard to call one "better" then the other, though, if only because neither one is finished, and they're both being worked on at the same time so that's a tough argument to make.

This reminds me of the part where Teru gets rid of Dimple, and Mob realizes that Dimple wasn't really that bad of a guy. This will be really interesting to see how it plays out, because it basically means Dimple has to back down and admit that he's not evil anymore.

I think Dimple has never thought of himself as "evil", but he has been honest with Mob, so I bet Mob is going to turn things around by being honest with Dimple, and maybe getting Dimple to be honest to himself. Or something. All I know is that I kinda wished I read this chapter all in one go rather than piece by piece, having a week go by between page turns sorta mellows the gut punch to more of a gut itch.

He will live on in our hearts, and probably as a t-shirt motif for Mob

He's a ghost.

More than that, he's a survivor.

Doesn't Mob have some sort of instinctive telekinetic barrier?

I coulda sworn some earlier chapters noted that a physic can't both use their powers on others and on themselves simultaneously, so his pushing the cat out of the way meant that he had no defense up at the time.

I suppose there's also the second season of the anime to look forward to if that ever becomes a thing.

I'm curious how much the next season will cover. The storylines going forward are a little more dense, and there isn't as much of an obvious stopping point.

On the other hand, the comic being complete means they have more freedom with what they want to adapt, since they now know what the ending is they can do things like introduce key characters earlier or cut filler storylines.
