Each of Akihiro Ota's recent One Piece sequences has drilled his name further into the minds of viewers, and his newest is his most dynamic yet. The reaction to each action really makes this scene, with Queen's stumbling and failed counters selling the overwhelming combo.

Mob Psycho 100 III #01
Through tactfully implemented alterations and additions to the source material, Takahiro Hasui brings us a strong premiere that makes it feel like Mob never stopped airing.
Let's break it down!

This part of Norimitsu Suzuki's incomprehensible World Heroes Mission sequence has evidently been entirely redone for the home release, and I like the result! Going for pure 1s is definitely one way to improve a janky rotation, and there's added debris/effects everywhere

Mob Psycho 100 III #02
It's the last self-contained adventure before we get into the meat of the season, and a great one at that. With a nice mix of comedy, action, and slice of life, let's break down what makes this one another Certified Mob Classic.

There are few better ways to kick off a season than with Yuichi Terao firing on all cylinders. His prowess with CG and VFX makes him a perfect fit for this mind-bending setting, and the result is arguably more cinematic than any sequence in the franchise's actual film.
59
2 cuts of Yuki Sato (佐藤由紀) sighted in the new MHA movie trailer!
Considering how many of her traits are visible and the fact that it's Bakugo, I have no doubts.
60
The final eyecatches are yet another celebration of this series and these characters. In fact, ONE himself was actually involved in their production this time and created the original drawings. With the assistance of koya58 and the usual team, they came out great.
61
Hitomi Kariya's Chainsaw Man ED, for which she handled nearly every aspect of production, features a remarkably cohesive and well-realized aesthetic with unique, unfiltered takes on the designs of the series' main 3. A fantastic first entry for the list of CSM ending sequences.

In that same vein, the walk here is actually a reworked Keiichiro Watanabe cut from 1x1. I'm glad to see it again since it's such a nice walk cycle, but it also serves to tie us back to that first episode in yet another way.
65
This episode didn't have many changes adaptation-wise, but I couldn't help but notice the decision to put Reigen and Mob's conversation in the same location that they reconciled in episode 7 of S2. Given that they came back together in that episode and split up here, it's poetic.
66
Upon his rejection, Shigeo shows a pure, raw expression of emotion--something he was all but incapable of until now. All that remains is to move toward the bright, uncertain future. Whatever it holds, he can face it as himself, unrestrained by the trauma that haunted him.
67
Moving back a bit, the scene with Teru nearly being brainwashed is extremely well executed and even steps into horror territory for a moment. Admittedly, I didn't even notice Psycho Helmet standing behind him on my first watch because my brightness was too low. Chilling shot.

With the 3rd MHA film on the horizon, the one thing I can't help but keep wondering is what type of insane shit Yutaka Nakamura is going to cook up this time
70
Absolutely tragic that nobody on earth wants to talk to Inukawa on the phone
71
Doesn't get much better than Norimitsu Suzuki's animation + using the OP song for a climactic gunfight
72
It's great to see Riki Matsuura animate fire for the first time since Fire Force S2 ended, and a perfect reminder that he's damn good at it.

It's rare to see light and darkness utilized like this in anime, but combined with the shift to widescreen and unsettling sound design, it's incredibly effective. This is where Kentaro Waki's photography shines the most, along with Itsuki Tsuchigami's storyboard.

Mob Psycho 100 III #03
The stage is set for the conflict around the giant broccoli to begin, but first comes the setup (and more shenanigans.) While not huge in scale, 3x3 features arguably the season's strongest storyboard yet. Let's take a closer look!
(1/??)
