Here is the main promotional video for Mob Psycho 100:
Mob Psycho 100 is a comedic action web manga written and illustrated by ONE. The series began in early 2012 being published in Shogakukan’s Weekly Shonen Sunday Web Comics. To date a total of 14 volumes have been published. ONE is also well known for his One Punch-Man manga, which recently was adapted into a TV anime.
Here is the series synopsis from MAL:
Kageyama Shigeo (a.k.a. “Mob”) is a 8th grader with psychic abilities. He could bend spoons and lift objects with his mind from a young age, but he slowly began to withhold from using his abilities in public due to the negative attention he kept receiving. Now, the only thing he wants is to become friends with a girl in his class, Tsubomi. With his psychic “mentor” (who has no psychic powers), he continues his daily life, attempting to realize his purpose in life.
It has been reported that a brand new project on Mob Psycho 100 has been greenlit at Bones. Confirmation on the project, and further details, will be revealed at a later date.
