Viral Mob Psycho 100 Cosplay Pushes Mob With the Body Improvement Club

By Nick Valdez

One awesome Mob Psycho 100 cosplay has gone viral for giving Shigeo Kageyama the push he needed with some words of encouragement from the Body Improvement Club. ONE's original webcomic series has a lot of reasons to love it, and one of the most hilarious twists came from the scary looking group of body builders introduced early on. In a lesser series this group would be relegated to bully villain status, but here they ended up becoming some of Mob's closest allies as they push the young esper to be his best self. It's something he didn't get from anyone else in his life, and they continue to be a huge influence on him.  

The Body Improvement Club continue to be some of Mob's closest friends as they don't push him beyond his limits, but instead celebrate every bit of growth that he ends up meeting while training by their side. It's part of Mob's journey as a young hero through the series as a whole, and that's why a cosplay group at Anime Expo this year was spotlighted by the official Twitter account for the series as their take on the Body Improvement Club has gone viral for cheering their own Mob on during a push up. Check it out in action below: 

As for when to expect from the upcoming third season, Crunchyroll will be streaming Mob Psycho 100 when it debuts Season 3 in Japan this October, but a concrete release date has yet to be set for the new episodes. They tease the third season as such, "Shigeo Kageyama, a.k.a. "Mob," is a boy who has trouble expressing himself, but who happens to be a powerful esper. Mob is determined to live a normal life and keeps his ESP suppressed, but when his emotions surge to a level of 100%, something terrible happens to him! As he's surrounded by false espers, evil spirits, and mysterious organizations, what will Mob think? What choices will he make?" 

The third season will be having a special premiere of its first episodes during Crunchyroll Expo later this year as well, so it won't be too much longer until fans get to see what's next. You can find the first two seasons streaming with Crunchyroll too if you wanted to catch up in time for the new season, but what do you think? How did you like the Body Improvement Club in the series so far? Let us know all of your thoughts about it in the comments!
