mob autism compilation because i'm insane (flash warning)
WARNING: there are some flashing lights during these timestamps:
- 10:15 - 10:38
- 11:13 - 11:20
- 12:58 - 13:10
be careful, and feel free to tell me in case I missed any!
also REMINDER: don't be weird about autistic hcs in the comments. This is just my personal reading and I made this silly thing for me and my friends who also agree with it. Be respectful please 🙏
That said, I underestimated how long this compilation would be sjfhsjd
My initial plan was to just make a little dumb vid under 5 mins to post on tumblr, but then I started actually compiling the clips, and I reached 5 mins by ep 3 alone, so that idea had to be scrapped lmao - in fact, the first version was over 40 minutes long,,, so. yeah. djhfgskfdh
Tl;dr: this is fairly condensed, just watch the show for the full autism experience lol
(Another idea of mine was to go a more serious/educational route and start fucking inanely rambling on every clip about the autistic symptoms present, but,,, nah. nah. The ones who know will know. I'll save that brainrot for another day 👍)
Anyways, yup. Hope this is as funny as it was in my head. Have a nice day everyone :)
a world where autism is the norm and neurotypical is the minority
So true
The world if it was good
ouch yes
Real
never forget that in the manga mob deliberately threw the cake directly into reigens face at the party
wait wha- im dying that cant be real
HE DID?? THATS ACTUALLY SO FUNNY AND ADORABLE AND AWW I'M SO PROUD OF MY BOY 🥹
the same party at the end of the series?!
@@hardenedclay8840yep! that was actually mob who did it the anime didn’t show it for some reason
@@lirnxethe anime showed it, just in a bad angle
Not a single character in this show is neurotypical and we love that
Let me guess: Mob: autistic (obviously) Reigen: ADHD Ritsu: ummm.... Idk Serizawa: autistic Tome: Autistic/ADHD
@@akodaah13-e32 Ritsu was a glass child kinda case, because Shigeo was that special with his powers, Ritsu was always seen through and developed mental issues by having such high standards of himself. And the traumatizing event where ???% mob almost killed these delinquents and Ritsu, he also suffered from Trauma. In the end he overcame that by hitting his own 100% :)
doesnt make sense mate
So real. My interpretation of the characters goes like this (feel free to ask for clarification on any of them because trust me, I have thought about them Way too much): Mob: autism, obviously. But I've also seen people assign inattentive type ADHD and OSDD to him as additional diagnosis...es Reigen: yup, ADHD, definitely Ritsu: Autism but less obvious and OCD Teru: NPD Tome: Autism and hyperactive type ADHD Serizawa: GAD and Autism And I see Tsubomi as having autism as well. As for Shou.... no fucking idea dude but that boy is certainly not normal. He just exists outside the DSM5 criteria lmao
thats like me saying a guy's autistic because he demonstrated one symptom when he is not
As somebody on tumblr put it, « the autism is central to the plot ».
Uhh no just mob is an introvert that represses his emotions
@@kris.p.bacon1361 He is an autistic introvert. How true of him... 😌😌✨
@@kris.p.bacon1361 it’s a joke lol
It absolutely is (I am genuinely not joking btw)
My autism masking usually manifests as clowning, like purposely being eccentric and out there and trying to I amuse people, but mob made me feel like it was ok to just be quiet. I’m so grateful for him
Ok u sweet patutie
@@ametrime4754 ok pookie
@@Flinterwing why would you want a key for your poo 🤪
ADHDer who suspects Autism on themself too and SAME. I always try to make up for my...differentness by amusing others with it and I feel pressured if I can't do that, resulting in me being a people pleaser 🗿 I'm still working on that bad habit, but I don't want people to alienate me like they did when I was a child
@@youexpectedanamebutitwasmedio yeaaaaaaa Same w me with the exentricness
I’m glad I’m not the only one that interpreted Mob as being autistic. I’ve always felt like the story was mostly about masking
He was masking his emotions due to his childhood trauma, he's afraid that by expressing his emotions, his powers will go berserk. How's it autism?
@@thabassum0466that’s how I feel about it. Representation is fine but I feel like people try to make anything out as rep when it’s just a character trait or behavior or something
@@thabassum0466 Yes, Mob's emotional repression was caused by trauma involving his powers. But guess what? Lots of autistic people _are_ traumatized. And in a lot of cases, autistic people start masking _precisely because_ they are traumatized. Whether that would be social rejection, lack of understanding and appropriate care from guardians, or simply being too overwhelmed by their environment or even their own emotions, that trauma and subsequent masking is often connected to their autism. And in that sense, I don't think it's unreasonable to read Mob's complex as autistic masking at all - even though, yes, he is a fantastical character in a fantastical story that doesn't function like ours (no actual autistic person could actually destroy a whole city and kill dozens of people in the process if not careful hdgdjd). But that doesn't mean that there can't be any parallels. Plus, remember episode 3, where Mob had a flashback to the other kids, and Tsubomi, ridiculing him for 'being weird', to the point where "Get a clue" was literally triggering for him? Remember how in the last arc we learn how Mob fell in love with Tsubomi because she _accepted_ him? And don't you ever wonder where ???% even came from..? What _made_ Mob even start to reject his psychic side to the point where his self split in that way and became dangerous to that degree? It didn't happen for no reason... Social rejection has always been a part of the story as well, not just the otherwordly fictional powers. They're more of a narrative device than anything, something to carry the themes. And different people will see these themes and characters in different lights - thus, Mob's experiences with his powers paralleling autism and his repression being a type of masking being one of them. P.s.: I hope my reply doesn't come off as too aggressive or negative. Just explaining the interpretation and why autistic people may find Mob relatable in that way ;^^
@@Eshisakkayou actually explained it so well. Theres so many things i find in mob that i see in myself,and ofc theres things i dont. Maybe its not direct representation,but i honestly feel really seen because of how relatable his entire story is!
@@Eshisakka that's crazy i aint reading all that
"ABLEISM ACTIVATE" made me start weeping its so fucking funny fdshakllgkj
"Get a clue" 😭😭😭
I'm sure every ND person has heard words similar to that and feels bitter about them 🗿
MANNNN, I really should have included that scene. That third ep is like, _the_ autism episode. The autism scene. I have no idea why I didn't - but oh well. Too late now :')
Those words eat at my heart…
Plus,the entire thing about him is that he bottles up his emotions until he has to let them all out. Just like me fr fr,having a breakdown when im having too much of everything. The percentage thing is such a good way to describe it too,its much easier for me to express my emotions using that
This is why I find Mob THE most relatable character out there! 😅
The last scene When he's genuinely laughing for the first time in who knows how long MADE ME CRY SO FUCKING HARD
Mob is one of the best and most accurate representation of the autism spectrum on media lol
the ending of season 3 where mob laughs makes me very happy because this is the first time he has ever laugh in this series 🥰❤
not really, but it is his first GENUINE laugh. (He laughed like a psycho during final second season fight)
@@mroffice8166 yeah he did laugh like a psycho(which is scary and I like it lol) but what I mean is that he laughs normally with a smile 😊
if this was a real compilation it would take hours . just kidding i love this video,,, mob autism moments my beloved hes just like me fr,,,
trust me, if I had included every single scene I really wanted to include, and didn't cut it all down so heavily, I do really think it would have been at least an hour long lmao Thank you for the comment
hes so silly . what if i cried
AHAHA so glad im not the only “doesnt know shit” autistic😭
"KILL, VIOLENCE, DESTROY!!! YEA"
I love Mob so much he is literally me fr It is the first time that i completely feel identified with a character Thank you for this video, it is my daily dosis of serotonine
As an autistic person who also got bullied Mob getting bullied hit to close to home :((
i just realized the very similar parallel between ritsu and mob's story and elsa and anna's 😭
Yeah, they are kinda alike... ive actually seen a few mp100 animatics with frozen songs for that reason :)
The whole time I was watching the anime I was screaming (in my head) “OH MY GOD HES LITERALLY ME”
Dude you have no idea how much I needed this video
3:56 I felt so called out by that entire scene lol
I have never felt more seen than when watching Mob Psycho.. Extremely thankful for this show :')
Random but I remember when my teacher asked me to choose between 2 girls for them to be our class leader ( it was in 3rd grade I think) and I took a solid 10 minutes while the whole class was shouting for me to finally talk ( I couldn’t decide)
he's literaly me
1:52 that cut was fucking planned lmao
this is actually so perfect
Damn.. Ngl, the thought of Mob being autistic never crossed my mind. Genuinely thought he was just a normal teenage boy facing the typical issues that come with growing up (minus the psychic powers of course). I'm not saying it's canon, but it's interesting to see that people have interpreted it that way.
“autism saves the day, every day” Have that branded on my SOUL
I can totally relate to mob, having Hi-Functioning Autism myself. Routine, social cues struggles, taking things literally, robotic way of speaking, special interests, observant as HECK (I swear its a super power for those on the Spectrum)
THANK YOU SO SO MUCH THIS IS SUCH A GREAT COMPILATION т-т
Haha, I haven’t actually realised how he behaves like this, I have autism and this is cracking me up so bad, I can relate!
My Aspergeric ass understands and loves your video, my different minded comrade. ❤🙏👍
Why is this so relatable ? As an autist, I feel Mob...
11:08 crying at these two babygirls
Uh. Babygirl as in 'grown up pathetic man that im irresistably drawn/attracted to' babygirl??? Cause thats how the word is usually meant in fandom and so you using that on mob is kinda. Hm,,, Im sure you meant it innocently but just letting you know ig 😭
@@Eshisakka im actually not very educated on internet slang, but my interpretation of the word "babygirl" is that its used for people they are very affectionate for, like a puppy
i searched it up and it seems to have an innocent meaning for male fictional characters we are very fond of, like i expected
@@hardenedclay8840 i think people tend to use it primarily on adult men because i think its pretty important to the joke that you are treating a grown man like a puppy. i often see it used among artists to express sexual desire for a character as well so i would have to agree with the other commenter here
@@carter2019 oh alright then thanks for the heads up🫶🏻🫶🏻
i love how your little comments in the video have ",,,," in them a lot. im autistic and so is my AMAZING friend, and we both use ",,,," like crazy. i swear this must be some coveted byproduct of autism because no one else uses it except openly autistic people LOL
Mob psycho 100 just makes me feel safe. Because.. well I dont have many close friends cause I'm "weird"/not normal. And for a long time in the past I try to fit in the status quo and be what ppl deemed normal. But now ik,maybe i should ignore it and embrace the weirdness since that's what makes me happy anyways
10:57 🤣
I'm crying again thank you
Why is this actually making me cry 😭
Ok for some reason i had to re wind the entire video but for the entire beginning of this i heard it in english then i rewind and its japanese wtf is happening with my brain 💀
anime fans labelling every single fucking character as neurodivergent
Yep, that's them. I don't quite understand why they are doing this - can't a person/character just be whoever they want to be? Without any labels, like a completely healthy ordinary person? Why do they make them suffer so much? Autism, ADHD and any kind of label isn't a funny thing. It's serious. I have ADHD. It brings inconvenience to people, making life harder for them. And they are just throwing it here and there, when the info isn't even canonical. Of course let them have their fun, I'm not trying to be offensive, but I'm just wondering, being curious...why? What's the purpose?
oh so tHAT is why i am so related.
My son
hey what exactly were you trying to point out at 9:45? It's been a while since i've seen the show so i might be forgetting something. Thanks in advance
that episode happened right after mogami arc... which means, when he says "it's been a while since i've done something like this. Just hanging out with people..." he means that. Quite literally :')
@@Eshisakka ah okay, thanks for elaborating.
1:57 HELPPP IM SHITTING BRICKS
Need to know what song plays at 2:28
in 7.23 is very funny 😂😂
What anime streaming service did you use?
mobs so real
Can you put a flash warning in the title please?
SO SORRY FOR BEING SO LATE ON THIS, but yes!! Flash warning is now on. if you think I missed a scene, feel free to let me know :)
@@Eshisakka Thanks!
*promo sm*
WHY AUTISM 😭
I always call myself “autistic coded” bc I fit the criteria to a t (and my brother has it too). I’m actually scheduling an appointment with a psychiatrist for a screening im so excited 😭 I used to really reject the thought of having autistic traits but seeing Mob/Shigeo always made me feel seen since before i even really considered if i was on the spectrum. I mean obviously some of the situations are played up for laughs, but shit more likely than not I get were hes coming from and it makes sense like something id do/done Maybe its bc im hyperfixating on this series again but this video made me so happy like ❤ Mob makes me feel better about adhd/autism, like
Hell yeah dude!!!! I feel much the same way, this aspect of the show and the discussion around it brings me a ton of comfort an nd person as well ^^ I hope your psychiatrist appointment goes well!!!
I was diagnosed with Autism at age 5 and think I have ADHD too. 😅 Just recently found this show when I was really struggling and seeing this just helped me not feel so alone. I know that sounds sad but sometimes all you need is a chance to laugh at the antics of someone who has similar struggles to your own and surpasses them despite that, improving along the way. Such a heartwarming story! Also love how he was his OWN antagonist in the 3rd season. I think we all saw it coming but it was amazing regardless!
Same! Congrats on taking steps to get diagnosed
@@Eshisakka hey man!! Its been a while. I just got diagnosed with Autism, ADHD and complex PTSD. Im so glad to finally have the answers ive been looking for. Im gonna try to get disability accommodations and im currently rewatching mob psycho 100 and just seeing myself so clearly in every detail in mob now that I’ve unmasked so much. It makes me tear up thinking about (which is a big deal cuz alexithymia).
