I don’t want any hints or nods to whatever happens in the future it’s like really late and I just need to put all my thoughts somewhere. SO. Im watching this show for the first time and it’s really good. The whole Mogami fight was crazy I have not touched extra material outside of the show yet but Im pretty sure everyone and their mama went crazy over this episode. Mob hitting a Steven Universe was fire and stuff but this episode really got me thinking a lot about Mob and Reigen.

Their relationship is pretty positive for the most part, Reigen helped Mob find the moral framework he lives by, is a good mentor, and genuinely seems to care for the kid. In S2 EP3 when Mob was stressing over murdering the ghost family Reigen was like “hey buddy I don’t wanna stress you out lets not push it.” Which is weird to me because when all the psychics leave the rich guy’s house cause its dangerous, Reigen stays with Mob not for a “I care for the kid” reason but because he outright says “Mob is doing something stupid and I need to use him later.” Dimple doesn’t even go into the mind palace to save Mob because he cares for him, he does it because Mob is more useful to him alive.

In the Minori mind palace Mogami kept playin with idea of Mob being afraid of being used by others and getting pushed around. (And I think they’ve flirted with this in earlier episodes too but I can’t remember.) So it’s obviously not a coincidence that the two other main characters (Reigen & Dimple) keep taking advantage of him and talk about it openly with each other when Mob isn’t around. I believe Mob can obviously recognize this on his own he’s not dumb, the fact that he knows he’s Reigen’s little task boy might even be why he has this fear in the first place, but I wonder if the show is ever gonna tackle their relationship like that. I wonder if Mob will ever be like hey Reigen, Dimple what the fuck is your problem. Anyway yeah I love these two so much
