I didn’t watch Mob Psycho at first because I saw promo art with Dimple and thought he would be an awful, annoying sidekick. Now he’s my favorite character. (Paul Rudd “look at us” meme plays)

Anon I am shaking your hand.

I was talking with a friend the other day about how when characters that you really don't expect to like become your favorites it can hit even harder, and I think a lot of Dimple Enjoyers have that experience.

Because yeah, he looks like he's gonna be an awful annoying sidekick! He looks like he's going to fall into the 'non-human companion' archetype that exists to provide uncomfortable comic relief and get treated more like a pet than a character and never really change.

And then you realize oh. No. The narrative *is* going to take him seriously as a character. And then you get to the broccoli arc and realize oh no! The narrative is going to take him SO seriously as a character and you are never going to be normal again!

#mp100 #my Personal Dimple Feelings Progression was like #pre-show: I am vaguely aware that there is a blob #pre-Black Vinegar: god why is he here :( what a creep #Big Cleanup: okay he's fine as a manipulative little bastard as long as they don't expect me to like him #7th Division: okay he is kind of funny #i guess he can stay #early S2: i accept him as part of the cast but i have no strong feelings #Mogami: OH. OKAY. i. may be experiencing some emotions. this is fine tho. i am normal about them.#he has convinced me that he cares about Mob and thus I care about him via the transitive property #this is a fine and manageable state of affairs!#Broccoli: I LOVE HIM I LOVE HIM I LOVE HIM I'M NOT NORMAL I WILL NEVER BE NORMAL I WILL BE CRYING ABOUT THIS FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE!!!!#Confession: wow i am even less normal somehow!#(with bonus ekurei 'huh. this better not awaken anything in me.')
