Okay so the new MP100 book came out....

And we learn that:

Reigen’s father is a local politician/elected government official. Reigen’s mother is a homemaker Reigen’s sister is a bank clerk. 

>>THIS MAKES SO MUCH SENSE NOW<<

If his father is an elected official, image would be really important to him. It recontextualizes the seperation arc, because if Reigen was all over the news. He must have brought a lot of scandle to his family. 

His mom scripted an apology for him because he’s the son of a public figure.

It makes sense now that he held a press conference to address the allegations, instead of say, releasing a statement online. 

Reigen would have grown up watching his father maintain one face for his voters and another for his family.

It makes sense now that he’s great at debate and managing situations with words, because he would have grown up in a family where choosing your words carefully was an essential skill, having watched his father, campaign, debate other candidates, give press releases….etc

Everything makes sense now, why he is the way he is. Why he feels compelled to make a name for himself. Why taking on facades comes so naturally to him. All his inadequacies……

Wanted to copy my twt thread here, since tumblr is much better for long form content.

Here are some thoughts on one of my most favorite moments of the series – Reigen’s press-conference, specifically Mob’s reaction to it.

So the common wisdom (and some comments from ONE) says that Mob rushed over there and, after Reigen’s apology, used his powers to make Reigen seem like a real psychic.

But! I always had a different take. First of, Mob gets there before Reigen even apologizes, but doesn’t do anything straight away. I don’t think he’s so callous as to come to watch in person as his shishou gets humiliated in front of a crowd.

I think he came already with the intention to help, regardless of if Reigen apologizes or not, but then just didn’t know how to help him, so he just stood there helplessly.

Secondly, and this was my biggest impression from watching this moment in the anime (specifically the sub, I think the dub mutes it a bit) – when Mob uses his powers, it plays almost like a disaster movie.

The building is shaking, cameras are flying and people are *screaming*, it’s almost similar to what we saw in the latest episode with ???% You have to imagine, for the journos in there it must have been terrifying.

And again, I don’t think that Mob is cruel enough to do something like this on purpose. He spends the whole story trying not to hurt people with his powers, and now he suddenly does it just because?

If he was just trying to help Reigen fool the public, wouldn’t it have been enough to just levitate one or two random things?

I also don’t believe that Mob is duplicitous enough to come up with something like this. He doesn’t show any inclination to lying before or after that scene, and he continues to believe that Reigen has special powers.

So, here’s what I think happened in this thing (and shh, I know I have shipping goggles glued to my face): Mob showed up, wanting to help, but not knowing how. He stood there for a bit, getting more and more upset as reporters were being mean to Reigen. Then Reigen said his wonderfully touching line, speaking directly to him – and Mob lost control of his powers because he was so emotional about it. The person he cares for very deeply acknowledged his growth and improvement, spoke to him like it was the most important thing at that moment, and Mob just lost it. That’s why it was so violent, so terrifying.

Reigen, of course, didn’t flinch, just took this display of power in stride as usual, turned it to his advantage. (Actually, he may have thought that Mob did it because he was angry at *him*, given that he expected Mob to reject him afterwards. But, bless his lying little heart, he didn’t let it show in front of the cameras.)

Anyways, I don’t know if this is actually a widely accepted view, and I just wasted all of your time, but I didn’t see it discussed before and wanted to share. Thank you ♥️

えめ on pixiv

I'd say he brought that upon himself.

Don't forget to check the tags before proceeding.

Congrats, Mob, you've found a fetish //ya

[kemangi01]

it seems ONE fucking know what he's doing. I mean it's not possible, but knowing he might read shojo and shojo 'my crush is my teacher' is popular back then.... idk man.

The thing about Age Swap AU that I really like is the fact that both Mob and Reigen are inherently so much more unstable.

On Reigen's end, most of it is from the fact that he's a kid—he doesn't have the same amount of emotional intelligence because he has less experience overall, and the fact that his relationship with his parents isn't,,,,great, even in a canon setting. A boy still mucking around in the trenches of parental abuse/neglect is always going to be more rickety emotionally and mentally than a grown man who's been given years to heal and distance himself from it.

And then there's Mob. Mob is a bit more a wild card in this area, just because without Reigen his childhood is more or less an unknown. Did Mogami find him? Would it have made him crueller if Mogami mentored him instead? What about Claw? Did they take him in? Is he still with them, did they fall, does he regret it? Is he jaded or riddled with guilt or stuffed so far back in his shell that it takes a little blond boy wielding a huge emotional and verbal hammer to start breaking through it? Either way, I definitely don't see him being as emotionally stable as canon Mob. He likely hasn't reconciled with Shigeo, he probably never truly accepted his powers, and thus has the emotional maturity of a ten year old—Reigen still beats him on this. Mob's only point of positive advice would've been Ritsu, and that's....I mean, it's Ritsu. He hasn't had any significant good influences in his life so he absolutely struggles on how to be one himself.

The potential for these two to be codependent is SO much higher and I love it. Unhealthy dynamics are my absolute JAM (one of the reasons I have this animatic rotating in my head at top speeds 24/7 365) so the inherent prickliness of whatever Wrongness™ these two have going on just. has me. Reigen clings because it's all he knows how to do—even if Mob banishes him from the office, he's a persistent kid that hasn't learned you shouldn't chase after moody grown men with emotions so repressed it manifests as a literal eldritch alter with no morals to curb its desires. And Mob has had to go even longer alone in this sort of universe than ever, and Reigen is likely the only person who's never been afraid of him; he's latching onto that kid like bear trap and never letting go. He's still tenderhearted, but it's plagued with years and years of loneliness and inner turmoil that he's had no one around to soothe; he's over a decade too late for 'healthy'. Not that Reigen minds <3

that's why lot of japanese's s shipper also drawn tsubomi and reigen in same art, as foxes (blond and black).

The parallels between Tsubomi and Reigen drive me so fucking insane you have no idea like—that shit had to be at least SOMEWHAT intentional even if not in a specifically romantic way.

For one, Tsubomi and Reigen are two of the only few people that call Shigeo "Mob" consistently. (Yes Tome also calls him Mob eventually but she starts out calling him Kageyama-kun and likely picks up "Mob-kun" from Inukawa or Reigen later on). We don't know how Reigen started calling Shigeo "Mob", though we can assume that Tsubomi was likely part of the group of kids that originally misread Shigeo's name as Mobbu to begin with so she's less of a mystery on that front. Maybe Reigen saw it written on his backpack or his shirt tag and started calling him that too, or maybe Mob even just told him that that's what everyone else called him and was what he prefered to be called at the time. Either way, it's a little odd that Reigen's one of the only people who use that nickname when we don't really get a reason why beyond "it can also be read like this", especially since Reigen is a grown man with (presumably) full literacy of kanji and would know how to read it.

Then there's the other obvious parallel that's made in the show; how Tsubomi and Reigen treat Mob. How they see his powers. They're not special, they're just a part of him. Nothing to be scared of—even though they kind of,,,,are lmao. The fact that Tsubomi continues to sit in the park even though a literal hurricane is approaching because she thought Mob sounded upset on the phone happens at the same time Reigen goes sprinting full-tilt into said hurricane because Mob is in trouble always stands out to me. It's less obvious than Mob's own words: "She never treated me any differently because of my powers" "Master never treated me any differently..."—but it's still a pretty blatant parallel to me.

Not to mention that both Reigen and Tsubomi's personalities are actually very similar as well! They're both described as people that hide behind a mask, a facade, while still being brutally stubborn. If Tsubomi doesn't want to do something, she's not gonna do it. While Reigen is more laid back because he's used to getting his hands dirty for work (money), he's still very stubborn himself when he doesn't wanna do something. He'll find a way to wriggle out of it and talk circles around you if you let him. Dimple even says that Tsubomi is the type of person who can't be swayed by words or peer pressure. She and Reigen were actually, again, two of the only people brainwashed through airborne Vibes™ instead of through food like everyone else. The biggest difference between them on this is that while Reigen lies fairly blatantly, Tsubomi seems to only lie through omission. Tsubomi is more of an introvert too, compared to Reigen's extrovert (though you could argue that both of them are good with people, with the only difference being that Reigen enjoys being the center of attention while Tsubomi presumably does not).

Plus they're both pretty goofy too once you think about it lmao. They're both prideful and hate to be humiliated, but they also care a lot about their public image and how people perceive them. Every time the scene with Tsubomi and her friends outside cleaning up leaves comes up, her expressions and panic always remind me of Reigen. And then there's Mob, calm and unjudgemental, willing to help her with no questions asked. Mitigating her humiliation, just like he does for Reigen :)

Another thing that always strikes me is how Mezato says, "If you can accept her for who she really is..." followed by Reigen's echo during his confession: "This is who I really am". Mezato essentially tells Mob that Tsubomi isn't who she seems on the outside and that if he wants to be accepted by her, he needs to also be ready to accept her as well. Which, we don't get to see much of Tsubomi's life outside of Mob—wow just like Reigen—so we don't ever really know who she is beyond that outer mask, but we see her slowly opening up to Mob later, as a friend. But the fact that Reigen's own confession mirrors Mezato's words to Mob about him accepting Tsubomi always makes me vibrate in place a little like,,,Confession Arc my beloved 🙏

I don't know man, there's just so much there, it makes my head spin. I could go on and on about it but I better cut myself off because if I don't I'll start crawling on the walls going feral about it because what, what was the point of this if not to make it clear that the relationship between Mob and Reigen is supposed to parallel his relationship with Tsubomi like what do you MEAN—
