Mob Psycho 100 III episode 6 broke every fan's heart as it featured the death of one of the fan-favorite characters, Ekubo, aka Dimple.
In the episode, Mob's emotions rose to 100%, having him explode with energy, however, he did not have much of it left. He took his time to apologize to Ekubo for not listening to him when Ekubo wanted Shigeo to join him in his plan to become God.
What Ekubo really wanted wasn't to become a God, but a friend who would stay by his side while he tried to reach his goals. Their emotional exchange itself was a critical hit for the fans, however, they were left sobbing after Ekubo said his goodbyes to Mob to go fight the sentient Psycho Helmet God.

If that wasn't enough, Shigeo's crying at the end of the episode would have torn up even the most apathetic fans.
Mob Psycho 100 III fans left emotional after Ekubo's death
Mob Psycho 100 III episode 6 was a rollercoaster of emotions for fans as they saw Shigeo and Ekubo finally make up after the former realized that Ekubo really was his friend. Unlike other people who praised his new shirt, the latter, while being honest with him, mocked his new shirt.
This helped Shigeo realize that what Ekubo really wanted wasn't to become a God but a friend who would stay by his side, which is why he asked Mob to be part of his dreams. This realization was very emotional for fans as they finally realized how close of a friend Ekubo considered Mob to be.
Later in the episode, Ekubo said goodbye to Shigeo, realizing that he was never going to see him again. The scene left fans emotional as one fan claimed how they felt dehydrated from the scenes. The choice of music in the scene didn't do them any favors either as it amplified the emotions of the scene several times.
Even manga readers who knew what was about to happen in the episode couldn't control themselves, as they claimed that Studio Bones purposely made the scene even more emotional than it was in the manga.
Lastly, the scene in which Shigeo started to cry left the fans sobbing as they couldn't handle their emotions after hearing Mob's painful voice.
Some fans even went on to praise the Mob Psycho 100 III anime as a whole, given how it was able to make people feel so emotional after the death of a goofy-looking character like Ekubo.

The scenes were outstanding as fans could only call it Godly animation, given how beautiful it looked.
Some fans even shared how the fight scenes are the only part of the episode that they are willing to re-watch again considering how beautiful it is. This is because the rest of the episode will only make them cry again.
Quite a major portion of the limelight even fell on a scene where Ekubo is seen catching his breath during his fight against the sentient Psycho Helmet God. The ripples on his body were animated way too well, leaving the fans transfixed.
Considering how Mob Psycho 100 III is expected to have 12 episodes, we may see more such amazingly animated moments further in the anime. Until then, fans will have to wait.
