I had to pause the show at this point, laughing uncontrollably.
Basically a villan who's been thrashing the good guys senses the overwhelming psychic presence of Mob, the protagonist.
Enter Reigen, a normal ass man with no supernatural abilities, casually walking up to him from stage right and kicking the shit out of him.
#mob psycho 100 is so goooood#i always love when stories with like magic and superpowers let the mundane charachers be cool#One does this really well#Same as King or Mumen rider from one punch man#but Reigen is just something else#theres a reason it the winners of both polls took him out#my posts

Yes Reigen becoming Hanazawa's new parental figure and essentially adopting him but only post-s3 finale to make it clear that he's filling a Mob-shaped hole and only if Mob gets super jealous and guilty and weird about it 🥰
#mobreimob#mobrei#reimob#hanazawa starts living with reigen and when mob finds out he fucking. hates it#like hes happy for hanazawa bc he seems much happier but also why did HANAZAWA get to see his shishou's living space before him#mob would know that he's being irrational and that reigen and teruki look far more like father and son than anything else but it would CHAFE#and reigen. reigen is missing mob and trying to let him go since he doesnt need him anymore and. well.#hanazawa needs someone#he doesnt need REIGEN specifically but he likes reigen and reigen is an adult willing to help#hes already gone up against claw and he knows how to deal with espers#he doesn't mind teruki being a little arrogant and haughty bc reigen himself is arrogant and haughty sometimes lmao#they get along really well#mob almost explodes when he comes by one day to hear dimple saying something about how reigen finally found an esper that wants him around#bC HE WANTS REIGEN AROUND. HE WAS HERE FIRST DAMMIT. FINGERS TWITCHING FOR AN EXORCISM EKUBO#mob psycho 100#hanazawa teruki#reigen arataka#kageyama shigeo#mob#mob is vibrating with how jumbled up he is#he sees hanazawa and reigen having ramen at THEIR usual place and every firs hydrant on the block explodes#momataka#just for teruki tho

by the way im like nearly halfway through season three of mob psycho and I see what the serizawa/reigen people are on now. like yeah you know what i do think two cripplingly lonely probably definitely gay guys in their early thirties would end up with Something happening if you put them in a room together for long enough. don’t get me wrong i honestly think it would suck at least a little bit, but there’s Something There, i hear you. there is a possibility of me getting more invested depending on how they interact in the future…there’s Stuff here i need to like place them next to each other and observe them. put them in like a petri dish.
#also I know reigens like what. 29? but serizawa’s exactly 30 I think and like#yeah that’s on the Edge of early thirties but like. they pass the vibe check.#lemon speaks#OH ON THE OTHER HAND whatever the fuck ritsu and sho have going on is very entertaining#Like what do you Mean you told him he looked good in a maid dress and said it Like That like..?#sho do you have something???? to say???????#not even mentioning him practically seeing ritsu from afar and being like. you. I like you.#for seemingly no reason other than…he…seemed…interesting???#that just stinks of ‘oh he kinda cute let’s see what’s happening over there’ like I dunnooo#fascinating#you know my only critique abt this show is that I do really wish there was more women#I need yuri to complement my yaoi#like a charcuterie board#serirei#yeah I’m not tagging this with like anything else I’m too scared

Same Age AUs are so fascinating to me, and of the ones I've seen I really like them. In particular if we have Reigen and Shigeo both as middle schoolers because instead of an older mentor figure Shigeo is ending up with another kid. He gets to have a friend his age who gets to drag him around to do stuff and it's nice, really nice to have a friend he can relate to. Meanwhile Reigen has soooo many ✨issues✨ but hey he's great at bullshitting and is getting Shige to open up some more, while on the flip side he's also getting a friend and can go out and do more now that he has someone to do stuff with. Plus they make great business partners so this is going amazingly :D
Another version I like is if this is the result of some time travel shenanigans, mostly because I like seeing a more stark contrast between kid Reigen and adult Reigen, especially through Shigeo's eyes because... this isn't his shishou, not exactly, because kid Reigen doesn't have the years of life experience that helps his words hold more meaning, even if kid Reigen is still a great talker and bullshitter. He can't say everything right that Shige needs to hear and its a bit off putting, especially if kid Reigen has different views on being "special" and whatnot (considering... "I want to be someone"). But there's still elements there that is just so Reigen in the way he talks and the way he moves that its like. Yeah, this is a kid, but it's the same person and everyone can see just how Reigen is, this is how he started. He's not Shigeo's shishou but he's still Reigen.
#mp100#reigen arataka#kageyama shigeo#just like with ageswap id love to take a crack at a same age au just bc i think its neat#also we dont have enough post canon stuff with the kids all grown up like cmon i wanna see how they develop#if we gonna have ageswap give us more timeline fuckery like same age aus and post canon#alternate meetings are cool too i like seeing diff possibilities#i just think shige and kid reigen would be great friends. just two lil guys doing their best#((no ship though. keep in mind canon material 🔫))#phantom bunnies#mp100 same age au#i think the other way around if theyre both adults would be neat too#because they got sooo many issues to sort through#seri 🤝 shige#he's just like me fr#reigen gotta help not one but two overpowered psychic shutins#imagine by this point he's not even running s&s anymore he's already moved on to smth else bc he never had that meeting with kid shige#ALSO ALTERNATIVELY. SAME AGE AU BUT BC OF TIME TRAVEL SHENANNIGANS#OLDER SHIGE GOING BACK IN TIME BC SOMETHING HAPPENED IN THE FUTURE#time travel fuckery my beloved

I LOVE your art so much dude. What's your thoughts on serirei cooking together?
thank you!! and as much as i love the idea of them cooking together, i think it would be safer better if only one of them cooks and the other is just there in the kitchen as well for company. because it could either end up with them working really well or end up with them bumping into each other a lot and something gets burnt and a lot of yelling happens (definitely not projecting rn). so i think they'd decide on who cooks or just order takeout if they're too tired to cook.
anyway here's a scanned sketch for u :]
#theres something special about trusting someone else in your kitchen#and in this case. i think reigen letting serizawa cook for him just makes my mind go brrr#also i think serizawa would've taken cooking classes later on#or probably asked reigen to teach him to cook#i'm sure they've had lots of conversations in the kitchen while one of them cooks#im projecting so hard ok. the kitchen is like a safe space for me if that makes sense#serirei#asks#ok i'll shut up now

sorry one last thing. i think spamton has been holding his own surprisingly well against reigen considering
it's a specific subset of Deltarune fans against (presumably) everybody else following the polls, who are determined to see reigen face sans again
there is ALSO a subset of UTDR fans who deeply hate spamton and want him dead
& he looks like That
#text post#spamton#sexyman poll#to me spamton fills the 'bugs bunny' role and reigen the 'goku' role in a metaphorical death battle right now#and it's like. no it would not be fun to see goku steamroll bugs bunny just like anybody else#reigen has long since outgrown his funny underdog role (everyone starts pelting me with tomatoes)#''ALSO WHAT IF IT LED TO TOBY FOX WRITING SOMETHING FUNNY AGAIN'' i say while being led away in handcuffs

kids when they hear that their dad is back in town VS. kids when theyre hanging out with a conman that accidentally stole their wallet once
im not even joking btw
bonus heres me being crazy about them in dms ^^^
#mob psycho 100#mp100#shou suzuki#sho suzuki#reigen arataka#i know sho doesnt actually BELIEVE his dad is back but even just that split second reaction is a weird one to have over your dad coming bac#he was like 'say sike rn... wait that aint right.'#shou watching them on the bottom floor while being isolated up in the corner at the end of the third stage play. and saying#'it's nice that they're so easygoing.' all wistfully???? im killing somebody#reigen calling him a poor thing and worrying about him DESPITE knowing his mischievous ways. ugh#gonna quote my reaction to clip rq#'bro [shou] heard him [reigen] talking about guardianship over children and making sure theyre safe over anything else and was like-#'this is getting too real for me i gotta make fun of him immediately.''#idc WHAT yall think to ME that was such a thick layer of defense mechanism that even though reigen's guardianship speech wasnt directed#at Sho he still felt the intrinsic urge to shoot back because of what hes experienced with people who are SUPPOSED to be protecting him.#would yall believe me if i told you i am totally insane#there are SO MANY THINGS. woven into their interactions that really enhance it#its totally silly! yes! but also! it is a legitimate ARC of GROWTH within their relationship! we watch as Sho starts off#with no trust in the man at all (although for a pretty good reason)#and over time he realizes hes NOT total shitbag#of course this doesnt mean hes completely vulnerable with him. its easy to infer that his distrust in certain people is formed from#a lifetime of being let down and incapability of dependency on certain trusted adults. his defense must be so heavily built up#even after gaining some sort of trust from Shou Reigen will NOT be exempt from his impish defense mechanisms.#sho will not make himself emotionally available as he would then be open to being hurt by someone else he thought could trust#his 'carefree and prankish' behavior is the wall between himself and such an intense feeling of disappointment and hurt and loneliness#but i like to think hes also just silly. hehe#man that stage play huh. shoots every fatal drug directly into my bloodstream#shou's trust and father issues VS stupid conman who has the common sense to not let children be beat up by grown ass adults. who will win.#i mightve forgotten something but. i think this is pretty packed full already so i am pleased. thank you for reading <3#meowmeow art

honestly i was sold on reigen as a character the Moment he said the line "you felt that cornered?" bc to me that moment def seemed like the type of thing most adults would snap at a child for. when children are told not to do something so drastic (especially if they've experienced the consequences of it before, like mob w ritsu) and they then proceed to Do It, there's a good chance they felt forced to do so, and there's an even better chance that they feel horrible before, during, and after doing it. they are afraid to be yelled at and they are Angry that they're going to be yelled at in the first place bc it was their only choice. a lot of adults simply don't bother to dig into it more, and they see this surface level Kid "Acting Out" Routine and they blame the kid and not the circumstances that shaped that behavior
i expected mob to get an earful abt it, or at least one of those eccentric but oddly wise lectures, but instead reigen said that. "you felt that cornered?" bc he Knows mob and he knows the poor kid would never try to hurt somebody else unless it was absolutely dire. even with ritsu's explanation—that mob had no choice in order to protect his brother—i still kinda expected that evil little "doesn't matter, don't harm others" slap in the face against the idea of self-defense. but reigen subverts expectations, like he has a talent of doing
there's something so compassionate about the phrasing of it, too. so empathetic. so quietly horrified that grown people would make a child feel like lashing back is his only option. they're turning a kid into a hunted animal, and reigen is beginning to realize just how cornered mob must've felt, to fall back onto something he never wanted in the first place
and don't even get me fuckign Started on ritsu's "they had a rule like that...?"

I adore the fact that in so many other stories, Mob Psycho would’ve concluded with the World Domination Arc. After all, it has the big, climatic battle with the ensemble cast versus the overarching villain. They win, and everyone goes home, all’s well that ends well, right?
Except the story doesn’t end there. Because Mob has yet to reckon with this internal, antagonist force that has haunted the narrative since the very beginning: Himself.
When Mob comes face-to-face with ???% at long last, he says: I am Kageyama Shigeo.
This isn’t a conflict with a villain, or another esper, or even a separate entity that resides inside Mob’s body. It is something far more personal, and far more relatable.
???% is the culmination of everything Mob’s held back. Not just emotions like anger or fear. Even his desires, like his crush on Tsubomi. All muted by his efforts not to hurt anybody with his powers. Mob has come such a long way, but he’s still restraining his feelings so tightly that the moment his control wavered, ???% took over.
But the conflict isn’t the destruction ???% is wreaking just by walking through the city. The conflict is Mob refusing to accept this part of himself he’s suppressed for so long.
And ???% is right! Every attempt to stop him thus far has failed. Because he isn’t meant to be stopped. Mob has to reconcile with the parts of himself that he won’t acknowledge.
And it’s the most difficult thing Mob has ever had to do! This is the part of himself that hurt his brother; that hurt his friends and decimated so much of the city. Reconciling with it means accepting that Mob hurt those people, whether he wanted to or not. It means accepting all facets of himself, even ones he’s not proud of or wishes he could change but cannot.
Mob has grown so much in this latest season alone, he hasn’t had any explosions, and he felt confident enough in his own abilities to actually ask Tsubomi out, which was something the Mob of two seasons ago could never imagine.
But what about the advice Reigen gave him for his confession to Tsubomi?
His true self, in its totality. This is what Mob has struggled with the entire story. This is why his confession to Tsubomi is the culmination of his character arc. Expressing his feelings means exposing his true self to someone else, even with the fear of rejection.
And while we’re on that subject. Let’s talk about Reigen. Right after he gives this advice to Mob, he says this about himself:
It is the height of irony (and tragedy) that Mob and Reigen admire each other’s strengths so much, yet have no idea they struggle with the same exact fear: that if the people they cared for found out who they truly were, they would reject them. It is why Reigen relies on lies and why Mob suppresses himself.
It is also why Reigen has never actually witnessed ???% until now. It is why Mob has never heard Reigen admit the truth about himself out loud.
And that’s why the final arc feels like such a gut-punch in the best of ways. What is harder than accepting who you are, and hoping for others to accept you as you are? Even at your most deceitful, or your most destructive? Mob Psycho ends with the Confession Arc because that’s the very heart of the story.
#mp100#mob psycho 100#mp100 spoilers#mp100 s3 spoilers#kageyama shigeo#reigen arakata#tearing up as I typed this don’t mind me#I’m a manga reader too but seeing this animated finally got to ne#and then the reigen parallels hit me!!!#I’m not Ready for next episode
