What to expect (speculative)

Mob Psycho 100 III Episode 9 will likely spend some time taking a retrospective look at Mob and Tsubomi’s relationship and interactions throughout middle school. Given that Mob’s rampage is soon to come, this has the potential to be an emotionally explosive look back for Shigeo “Mob” Kageyama.

The episode will also likely see Mob gather advice from friends and family on how best to confront Tsubomi before she changes schools permanently. This cacophony of voices also has the potential to set Mob off, especially if he receives conflicting advice from many different parties. Similar situations have happened before, so it’s far from unrealistic, considering Tsubomi’s involvement.

Finally, fans can expect Mob Psycho 100 III Episode 9 to feature some sort of monologue from Mob about how he feels about Tsubomi.

The series has, at its core, been about Mob’s growth throughout his teenage years. With this in mind, it would almost certainly be a missed opportunity not to have Mob soliloquize about the trials and tribulations of young love, what he’s learned, and how he plans to make one final splash.
