The Tyrant King refuses his defeat and violently lashes out at him, demanding that he still fight. All Mob can do it take the blows before achieving [[BeyondRedemption 100% Resignation]].

** In the manga, the above quote is said by the unnamed but omniscient narrator. The anime always had Dimple speak the narrator's lines. Thus, fans who have also read the manga have wondered how the anime would adapt the narrator's line "Dimple was a friend" if Dimple himself is out of the picture. Studio BONES decision' to have Mob speak the lines instead is a clever choice. But it also makes it even more gut-wrenching ''hearing'' Mob declaring it as he [[ImCryingButIDontKnowWhy cries himself to sleep.]]

** Asagiri was completely conscious too, but since Mogami only made recreations of memories, [[AndIMustScream she can only sit back and watch]] [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone as she slowly realizes what a horrible, horrible person she's been most of her life.]] When she's finally exorcised, all she can say is that she really is that terrible in real life... and then she immediately breaks down, says she's sorry, and asks for forgiveness over and over and over...

**Despite the awful and vile person he's become in the present day, Mogami's [[DarkAndTroubledPast backstory]] and FreudianExcuse can make more than one person feel sorry for him and shed a tear at the circumstances that molded him into a monster. He began his career as a genuine and good-willed psychic who helped people with exorcisms and advice on TV shows, eventually making him famous enough to be labeled as "[[FamedInStory The Greatest Psychic of the 20th Century]]" by the media; however, all this fame didn't prevent Mogami's life from taking a sharp turn when his mother fell sick due to an unknown illness, and the obscene medical bills forced him to become a ProfessionalKiller for people who took advantage of him and only saw him as a tool. [[AllForNothing When his mother died anyway]], she turned into an evil spirit and blamed Mogami for her death, claiming that his actions were what plagued and brought evil around her in the first place. Understandably, this was enough [[DrivenToMadness to break Mogami's mind]] and swear revenge on people who take advantage of others for their own gain, since those were the ones who ruined his life when he needed help the most.

* The school itself after ???% blasts it apart. The anime relegates the implications of this to FridgeLogic territory, but the manga spells it out: Mob is able to use 100% Sadness to rebuild Black Vinegar Middle School more or less as it was, but ''all the cracks remain.'' What is broken can heal, but scars will still be present.

** He did seriously injure his little brother, at least enough to deeply traumatize both of them. The sad thing here is that Mob blames himself completely for his actions while unconscious. While generally accepting responsibility for actions we take while, let's say, black-out drunk is the right thing to do, here a ''child'' expects to be fully in control of himself at all times, expects to be in control of other people's reactions to him, and doesn't see any of his unconscious retaliation as even remotely justified. Teru had caused a ton of property damage on school grounds with Mob's body before he choked the boy out, and yet Mob blames himself for ''all of it''.

** Near the end of the episode, Emi's [[WithFriendsLikeThese "friends"]] poke fun at her writing talent and tear apart her script for laughs while Emi passively allows them to. Mob walks in and picks up the pieces despite the girls insulting him for his pointless action, thus leading to the image above. This also counts as a Heartwarming moment as Mob's kind words and actions reach out to Emi.

* Serizawa's DarkAndTroubledPast. He was born with incredible powers but without a master to properly guide him, he easily lost control of his powers and endangered anyone who was close to him. This led to him isolating himself in his house for ''15 years'' and was only able to leave after finding a new master in [[BigBad Touichirou Suzuki]]. After Mob points out that he's being manipulated, Serizawa breaks down in tears over what he would do with himself if he didn't have Claw anymore.
