DEATH BATTLE

Finally watched the match.

Man, when Mob started twisting her into knots, I briefly forgot he was suppose to lose this match.

One Strip! One Strip!

Watchdog Man is definitely C-list in terms of audience investment. He's gotten very little play in either the manga or the webcomic.

I'm just glad Mob's death was via meteor and not twisting. I was afraid that might happen since that's Tornado's signature move. The framing of the death was real cool though, with Mob breaking out of the psychic hold right before getting hit.

I'm just happy we didn't hear Mob scream or anything like that.]

You got it wrong. He wasn't breaking from a psychic hold, that was Tatsumaki shattering his defensive shield just before the meteorite's impact. Freeze-frame the video at the right time and you'll see that Mob had a purple outline just before Tatsumaki's green-colored psychic... "wave" clamps onto it for a split second and then both the green and purple outlines shatter into nothingness, leaving Mob completely exposed.

I'M MR. MEESEEKS, LOOK AT ME!

I don't know if this was an intentional artistic decision, but did anyone else notice the art style constantly shifting throughout the fight? I'm not talking about the transition from sprites to 2D artwork, I mean the style of the close-ups didn't seem to have a consistent look to them. It almost felt like the fight was animated by five different people at points.

I'm not familiar with either series, so I don't know if this is just trying to emulate an artistic choice from either shows. Or maybe my eyes are playing tricks on me. It's just something I noticed.

Don't do it Wiz and Boomstick, in getting rid of Deadpool you'll unleash a more destructive evil.

Never trust anyone who uses "degenerate" as an insult.

I'm pretty sure that if they cared, they wouldn't do it.

As far as they are concerned, getting rid of Deadpool is worth it.

One Strip! One Strip!

I think the fight starting out as sprites and then going to Art Shifts is a bit of a joke about how both of the shows involved the use of super deformed & art shifts

"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."

@MarqFJA: Oh. Well that's way less cool so I'll ignore it.

So a question about the ending: Was Mob killed by the meteor and Tatsumaki destroyed what was left of his body, or was he put in a state of near death and she finished him off?

The Mask has two major interpretations: bonafide cartoon serial killer, and Jim Carrey.

I doubt he'll be worse if it's the latter. The former is more of a selfish, homicidal trickster than a fourth-wall breaking egomaniac.

... Way less— Do you have any idea how much psychic power she had to put into such a move to shatter his shield?! If you hadn't noticed, she wasn't able to put a dent in said shield ever since Mob went ???% Mode, and in fact the shield didn't have to tank anything for a considerable while before Mob started to twist Tatsumaki's limbs. By all appearances, she pretty much had to destroy the shield while it was at full strength, and did so in less than a second... and still had enough psychic power to spare for protecting herself from the meteorite's impact.

Nnnnnumbers! XD

The way color was used in the animation was really good NGL.

Bleye knows Sabers.

Yeah, this fight looked gorgeous. I really liked the transitions from sprite to animation.

Question: How much of Mob Psycho 100 is spoiled? Does it spoil anything that would happen past Season 2 of the anime?

I'm all caught up on OPM so I'm not too worried about Tatsumaki

@MarqFJA: I just like the narrative better. The match as presented is very close in both animation and analysis. ??? is messing Tornado up, but she has a way to hit him with such a powerful attack that it'll earn her the victory. If she freezes him it makes Mob look cool because he broke out but it also make Tornado look cool because even if it only bought her a split second her plan worked. Tornado suddenly being able to overpower his shield when she was just having trouble doesn't flow as well with the narrative of it being a close match.

They go over the premise of the final arc and give a broad strokes account of the ending.

If you finished s2, it spoils one thing that's been teased and building up for a long time, but the rest is pretty general and vague.

I see it as a matter of her forcing him to split his attention between her and the meteor trap card she set up before hand and then taking advantage of that split attention to overpower his shield.

So, basically, what Gohan and Vegeta did to Cell.

The similarities are striking! What is Vegeta but a big dumb destructive space object?

Already was into One-Punch Man where Murata turned ONE's setting into something gorgeous. Studio Bones turned Mob Psycho 100 one into a pure sakuga fest. Sakuga is where the animation in a scene is really fluid and/or detailed. Think of Digimon Our War Game, Naruto episodes like Sasuke vs Orochimaru in the forest, or Saitama's fight with Boros in One-Punch Man the anime.

Or Yusuke vs Dr. Kamiya from Yu Yu Hakusho.

Goku versus the filler movie villains in World's Strongest.

Homura vs Mami from Puella Most Horrible Magical Girl Adventure Ever.

Probably several fights in Fate that aren't talking scenes, but the only one that needs to be mentioned is Kiritsugu vs Evil Alexander Anderson.
