How many One Punch Man can you find in Mob Psycho 100?<\/p>\n

If you love One Punch Man\uff08\u30ef\u30f3\u30d1\u30f3\u30de\u30f3\uff09, then you must have heard of Mob Psycho 100\uff08\u30e2\u30d6\u30b5\u30a4\u30b3100\uff09. Mob Psycho 100 is another manga series by One Punch Man’s mangaka, One. I think this is pretty obvious as the two series share the same art style and the protagonists have the same dead-fish eyes. One and the production team, being the big teasers they are, put a hell lot of One Punch Man references in Mob Psycho\u00a0100.<\/p>\n

And they are so so so hidden that it took me a hell lot of time to find them.<\/p>\n

Saitama, a.k.a. the legendary One Punch Man, appears in a few episodes of Mob\u00a0Psycho 100.<\/p>\n

In episode 1, Arataka Reigen tries to scare away a\u00a0spirit by flipping his phone open, and that’s when we can see Saitama’s bored face on the phone screen. He is even wearing his signature costume here!<\/p>\n

\u2207 Ep 1, Mob Psycho 100<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Episode 2 has one that is very\u00a0hard to notice. This guy on the left from the\u00a0Telepathy Club is reading a book or manga named One with a bald guy on the cover. The bald guy wears a yellow shirt, a color that represents Saitama. So this is very likely referring to the bald Saitama from One Punch Man.<\/p>\n

\u2207 Ep 2, Mob Psycho 100<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The one below is also from episode 2, and it is just plain obvious. This is a\u00a0freaking One Punch Man manga! Although the person on the top of the left panel does not show his entire face, he does resemble Genos a lot. Therefore, I assume he is.<\/p>\n

\u2207 Ep 2, Mob Psycho 100<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This one is from the ending of episode 3. A mini Saitama is seen on the paper cup.<\/p>\n

\u2207 Ep 3, Mob Psycho 100<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I have to admit that I didn’t discover this one by myself.\u00a0I can’t believe how other people found out about this one. I mean,\u00a0Woah, it is so well hidden. This one is from episode 7, and this Saitama who blends in with the background so well\u00a0shows up only for like, a second.<\/p>\n

\u2207 Ep 7, Mob Psycho 100<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Apart from Saitama, some passerby-like characters could be referring to several characters from One Punch Man.<\/p>\n

When watching episode 3,\u00a0do this guy’s\u00a0striking suit and chin remind you of a certain someone? I have to say it reminds me of a\u00a0character that makes quite an unforgettable appearance in One Punch Man.<\/p>\n

\u2207 Ep 3, Mob Psycho 100<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Ahh yes, the Puri Puri Prisoner. How can you forget him after he first shows up in episode 8 of One Punch Man? He is gay, \u00a0he remembers all details about the male prisoners he has a crush on, and he is imprisoned just because he sexually harassed multiple guys.<\/p>\n

\u2207 Ep 8, One Punch Man<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This one – I am not sure about it, but this guy from Mob Psycho 100\u00a0shares\u00a0the same hairstyle with one of the heroes in One Punch Man.<\/p>\n

\u2207 Ep 7, Mob Psycho 100<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This is Metal Bat from One Punch Man. They really do share the same slick hair.<\/p>\n

\u2207 Ep 10,\u00a0One Punch Man<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I am even more skeptical about the following one. This guy shows up in episode 1. He has a chin like balls. He has a 7:3 haircut. He looks like he is rich, too.<\/p>\n

\u2207 Ep 1, Mob Psycho 100<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In episode 1 of One Punch Man, a seemingly younger version of the guy above appears as a child who plays soccer. 7:3 haircut? Check. Chin like balls? Check. Rich? You know this kid is rich if you watch out for\u00a0the details about the Hero Association when watching the anime. The kid, whom we all know is saved by Saitama, is actually the grandson of the\u00a0Hero Association’s founder. The founder creates the association just because this kid\u00a0is saved by a hero he doesn’t get to know. \u00a0So, yeah, this kid is rich.<\/p>\n

And yes, this kid could possibly be a younger version of the guy from Mob Psycho 100.<\/p>\n

\u2207 Ep 1,\u00a0One Punch Man<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It has been real fun to go easter egg hunting while re-watching two of my favourite anime. Now it’s time for another hunt. What series should I do next?<\/p>\n

P.S.\u00a0In fact, I like One Punch Man more since Saitama is an absolute babe.
\nP.P.S. Saitama has a\u00a0bald – I mean gorgeous head.
\nP.P.P.S. Genos is a babe, too.<\/p>\n
