Mob Psycho 100 - Still 3

Mob Psycho 100 follows the adventures of teenage boy Shigeo Kageyama, nicknamed “Mob.” Mob has trouble expressing himself, but he also happens to be an incredibly powerful esper. He wants to live a normal life and keep his powers of ESP in check, but when his emotions surge to a level of over 100%, something terrible happens to him. Additionally, he’s routinely surrounded by fraudulent espers, evil spirits, and shadowy organizations. Interesting adventures for Mob are assuredly afoot.

Crunchyroll acquiring the streaming rights to the third season is great news. The streaming series is building up quite the library since the acquisition by Sony and merger with Funimation Entertainment. It’s good to know that fans will be able to find the series streaming all in one place, and they will have a variety of options in terms of watching it in the original Japanese language format with the simulcast episodes, along with the dubbing format options.

The platform streaming fun, unique, and stylish shows such as Mob Psycho 100 is a big part of Crunchyroll’s appeal, so it’s good to see the show’s run on Crunchyroll will continue for the third season. So fans will be able to check in with all three seasons in the same place.
