Why Is Mob In Love With Tsubomi in Mob Psycho 100?

At first glance, it’s easy to see why Mob is in love with Tsubomi: she’s kind, compassionate, and supportive. She’s the most sought-after girl in school, to the point where if you think about it long enough, you’ll probably decide that you’re in love with her, too.

More importantly, however, she is Mob’s childhood friend and someone who never treated him differently for his curious powers. In fact, it’s part of the reason they were so close in the first place, with him levitating various objects for her amusement.

There’s something deeply personal about a childhood crush, and when they begin to drift apart, it only goes on to strengthen his obsession. Tsubomi is somewhat aloof, creating an air of mystery about her that many find fascinating, and Mob is no different.

He even goes so far as to attempt shifting his image to something more desirable, enlisting with the meatheads of the Body Improvement Club as a result. Love is fickle, but the resolve of Shigeo Kageyama knows no bounds. Ganbatte, Mob-kun!!
