 Ah man, this is gonna be awkward, isn't it? Episode 8 of Mob Psycho 100, The Older Brother Bows, Destructive Intent. At the end of the last episode, had Mob finding his brother Reed Soup. He's basically beginning his ultimate villain path, it seems. And honestly, it may end up being a good thing that he found him, because he is at the very beginning of this journey from what I can tell, aside from all the stuff with the student council president. But still, maybe he'll see Mob and it'll kind of like shell shock him into realizing he's going down a bad path. Be sure to drop a like on the video if you haven't already and let's hop into this one. It also had the loose end of the guy in the hood, but I think it was also a psychic. Oh! He did see him again. Oh, he Teru told Mob. I was wondering how he kind of just stumbled across him. Oh man. God, that like... It's so, it's so creepy. And now he's going to find out about Dimple too, I think. Now, why is Mob bowing is the question. Yeah, that's true. And there's the guy with the hood. Okay, I figured he would lie his way out of it. You're going to leave? Really? This is tense, Teru. Oh... Oh... He still has Dimple too. I wonder if Dimple affects his mind. I know it does, but how much does it? Is he going to fight him? No, for real. Oh, he's dipping. Oh no, it wasn't even Dimple affecting him. It's sort of, he has drunk on power. Oh my gosh, Ritsu. No. No! I thought it would snap him into place. No, he's... All he says is congratulations. Oh no, this is sad. No, he's dead set on this path. I don't know what you're going to do if you're scared. What? He's so powerful. I'm going to protect myself from the power of Ritsu. That wasn't Mob's fault. Oh, that's not Mob's fault though. I guess he was scared of what happened with those bullies, but... I don't know why Ritsu doesn't do anything. I don't want to see him. Delusional admiration. I don't want to see him. Oh! Ritsu, I understand. Wait, how can he tell? Mob's very surprisingly very calm. I guess he knows his brother better than us, but... There's something else. Dang, Mob! He's being the big brother. He's willing to for Ritsu. Because he sees this social, this popularity is important. And he wants to save this for Ritsu. Or he wants to try to. Oh, he's probably talking to the guy with the jacket. This voice actor sounds very familiar. Bring him here! Sakurai? Is he looking for Mob or Ritsu? Oh, Ritsu. Wait. Oh, no, wait. It was supposed to be Mob, though. Dang, that's clean! Oh my gosh. There's something more about Mob that they're looking for, but since we should pretend to be him, it's ruining whoever this is their plan. Ritsu just kind of seems embarrassed now. It's Mob. Oh. Is he just going to join him? Oh my gosh. How does he see this guy's face? Oh. Oh my! Yeah, exactly! It is kind of cute because they are middle scores. They aren't strong. But the thing is, Ritsu now is a psychic. Where's Mob? What is Mob doing? There he is! Oh, he's spiking! Did the animation go hard? Mob spiked like 70. I mean, his brother's being kidnapped, of course it's going to be like an emotional outburst. This guy's wasting time. Mob's going to pop. Brother, they are middle schoolers! I feel like Mob's just going to be standing there. There he is. He's up. What percent? Oh my gosh. He's got a giant scar on his face. That animation was insane. Maybe this is going to teach Ritsu a lesson. There are powerful people out there and he needs to use this in the right way. He's protecting his brother. Yeah, he has to use his power now. He didn't want to against Teru because it was himself. I wonder why he was covering his face. I mean, I guess the scar? I don't know. I feel like it's going to have something. That's cool! I feel like his appearance is going to have some significance later. Like someone they know. Oh my God. It's weird seeing Mob getting beat down. Where's Ritsu? Wait, what if Ritsu builds up that emotion and has an explosion? This is what he wanted to be able to protect his brother. Not for him to have to stand up for him. Go, Ritsu! Oh, no. You were supposed to hit him! I don't think they've stand a chance. Is that... No, that's Mob. Mob still hasn't exploded. All right. Well, I think this is going to be the first time we see it. Like actually, I don't know if I would say offensively, but he didn't want to. He used it inherently just defensively against Teru, whether he wanted to or not. He is strong enough. God, the shadows. Oh my gosh. This guy got sit on the wrong mission, bro. He's still trying to hit back. So Mob have us like an inherent defense during this too. They doesn't even have to control. Ritsu is insane! Dog, this show is crazy. My God. It seems more in control than with the situation with Teru though. Like he's speaking. Feels more like Mob that time. He got up. Oh my God. Wait, Mob, are you expla- DIPPLE! DIPPLE SPECTATING! Can I bring him here? Will you go and bring DIPPLE RAGON? Okay, so he's not in like that dark form anymore, but he's still strong. They're all fanboying Mob now. He's gained the respect of all the gang leaders. Why is he poison? Now they know. I like how him having the white shirt like confirmed it. He's gonna try and take Ritsu and run. Yeah, it's not like the shadowy Mob, but it's still like a- it's still- It's like the Mob versus DIPPLE. Wait, what? Oh, you are shameless. Wait, maybe he's gonna- He might take Mob now. Oh. What does he mean disappear? He's up! Oh, he admitted it. Yeah, he's gonna take Ritsu and run. Actual coward, man. Dog Mob just saved all of them, but he couldn't save his brother. Is it Reagan? Oh, no, it's Haru. Oh, he went to get Haru. That makes way more sense. I'm so glad we have Haru though. I feel a lot better about Mob. It's like someone that understands Mob. Dude, that animation popped off. Kata ga omoin desu yo ne? Ai, uranai shi ni wa nanika nana- Yudake itte kanetoru no ka- SIS YOU! He's shredding the rock around her. This is annoying to Spirits. Bro, he's pulling a Ghostbusters. Yo, she liking this massage a little too much, brother. Aroma boutou toku- Hahahaha! It's a train! What a beauty trip. I mean, at least he's good at like having people relaxed and stuff. Konkai wa gachi na yatsu janakute tasu. Mob ga yakusoku no jikan wo mudan- Oh my gosh. Mob usually is there to finish off the job. Oh, Reagan, if only you knew why he wasn't there. Nanika na yami ga aru nara itte wa itsu demo soudan ni- I just- One more- I mean, I guess I kind of understand why Ritsu went down this path, but- Nanika na yandetara soudan noru yo- Mob was the older brother and he wanted to live up to the same expectations, even if he was popular in the smart kid and everything. There's nothing he can do- It's like Deku in MHT when everybody else got quirks and he didn't. Mob never realized that he'd felt, uh, I guess not good enough. Yo. It makes sense why he would think that at first. Oh, wait, what? Oh! I love his hair, dude. I can't get over it. It's so funny. That was a good question. Yeah, he's had a whole apartment. Stay away, bro. They took his brother. How do you tell him to stay away? Claw. Whoa. A hundred members in Claw? Oh my god, manufacturer. They make psychic powers. They're gonna brainwash Ritsu? I mean, Mob was trying to take him on, but barely. If they have hundreds, then- They're gonna just destroy Ritsu. And what kind of older brother is Mob if he just sits by and does nothing? Thank goodness Dimple is here to tell us this. Tell them this. We already knew. Let's go, Dimple! Well, they're gonna go see and realize that everybody's gone, yeah? Or just destroyed. That's why they took all those kids. Oh, gosh. This guy basically collected them all in one nice, convenient place for Claw to take them. Nah, he genuinely, like, cared about them, I think. It all makes sense now, yep. So they ended up winning in the end or getting what they wanted. They just wanted Mob because he's an Esper, a young Esper. Not much at all. Like, they were all super minute. What are you doing, Hanazawa-kun? Showing him how powerful they are, yeah? Is this a different intro or outro? Oh, hold up. More lore. They just gonna show where they're taking Ritsu. And I feel like there's already evil in Ritsu's heart, which makes me worried that, like, brainwashing will just make it, like, 20 times worse. Like, he wouldn't just be brainwashed. He would be, like, their best weapon. Whoa. They got a whole giant secret facility. Well, this episode just cracked this whole world right open. This, this organization Claw, I think, is going to be a very overarching enemy. I don't know if it's just this season or over the course of several seasons, but they seem like an in-game boss. I mean, this secret organization, kidnapping kids, brainwashing them, making an army of, of Esper's. But then again, like I said, the world was just cracked open. There could be other organizations, other giant entities looking to control Esper's. And now that we know that they can manufacture them, I mean, it changes the whole game. But we got a very good look as to Mob's power level in comparison to, like, someone insanely strong, or I guess a really strong adult with psychic powers, and how he really can only take them on in that, like, I unleashed explosion form, which I feel like is bad that he has to get to that point to be able to take them on. But, like, I mean, the guy even said, like, I can't fight anymore. I have to take this kid and run. So maybe it's a good sign for us that Mob does have what it takes. It's just going to take a lot more of him understanding himself. But that's been it for episode eight of our Mob Psycho 100 Watch. Do drop a like if you haven't already, and I'll catch you guys in the next one. Peace, peace.
