This episode made me realize this show is just Mob Psycho 100 with more fanservice and if Mob was a sadistic battle junkie. The effects of Lloyd's spells look like psychic powers and Grim is basically Dimple. The MC is also content with being a "mob" character and all the enemies have been evil spirits.

I really notices the similarities with Mob Psycho 100 this episode that I never put together while reading the manga. Can Def see Grimo having a Golden Dimple moment in the future

The only similarity seems to be Grim and Dimple though. The MC seems way too OP for me to believe Grim will ever develop to become a challenge.

I think it's not about their power, but their attitude.

Mob has self esteem problem and wouldn't deliberately hurt dimple. He's also actively trying to be normal rather than utilise his power. 

Lloyd didn't have any hesitation whatsoever at using his power. Like, you know your life would be over quickly if you mess with Lloyd.

Idk about that. In this episode we saw what appears to be the full extend of Lloid's mana, and while it is enormous, much beyound that of a normal creature of that world, it does seem to also be finite. So if grim keeps absorving the mana of other demons, know to be the strongest beings in that world, I could see he ending up a real threat. Even more from just being together with Lloyd, and seeing all the crazy shit he can pull up.

To me OPM is the better comparison. Aside for Grim who is indeed pretty much Dimple overall this series is more like as "OPM Magic-Edition"

… mob psycho already is opm the magic addition, how is this show more like opm than mob psycho

23

u/_legna_ Apr 29 '24

Because Mob is also a coming of age story while OPM is way more action oriented. The execution in the two series differs enough to differentiate the comparison

u/AzureDragon013 Apr 29 '24

Agreed, I'll even add on Saitama and Lloyd are very similar in that they both just want to do their thing (be a hero/research magic) and have fun with various side characters along the way.

OPM Magic-Edition

Mashle is the true OPM Magic-Edition.

This series reminds me more of The Daily Life of the Immortal King, where you have an insanely powered student who doesn't want the attention of being the most powerful person on earth, and he has defeated a powerful demon as a kid who is now the school pet and frenemy.

I wish r/anime would start allowing chinese cartoons that get licensed to have discussion post like Dragon Raja -The Blazing Dawn- that CR just started doing. Other japanese media subs have been opening up to things made outside of japan but still connected to asian market.

u/mrfatso111 May 22 '24

Agreed, we would have more interesting discussion instead of only at their own subreddit and more people would be introduced to them as well.

Like i do wonder how they would feel watching the king's avatar, there once was a spirit mountain, or thunderbolt fantasy and etc and the discussion surrounding them too

He’s not killing things in one hit though, he blasted it with multiple max magic spells for 5 minutes.

2

u/MuffinMan12347 https://myanimelist.net/profile/muffinman12347 Apr 30 '24

Max spells in the 4 elements. You gotta be crazy if you think that's his max output. Dudes going to drop like 20+ "Atomic's" at once if he ever gets serious and the hole in the sky will be permanent.

u/MonaganX Apr 30 '24

Lloyd is a noble in position to contest the throne, kind of the opposite of a mob character by default. The whole struggle of Mob is that he wants admiration, but he wants it for he is as a person instead of abusing his powers. Whereas Lloyd is already loved and admired and just doesn't want any attention when he (ab)uses his powers.
They couldn't be any more different.

u/Drone_Imperium Apr 30 '24

Yeah MC is secretly OP but pretends to be a mob so that it doesn't interfere with his magical research. He doesn't need more power any longer.

So he's Cid from The Eminence in Shadow?
