Mob Psycho 100 characters

Mob Psycho 100 follows Shigeo Kageyama, a quiet middle school boy everyone calls Mob, who happens to be one of the strongest psychics alive. He works part-time for Arataka Reigen, a self-styled psychic with no powers at all, while trying to live an ordinary school life. The cast falls into a few circles: Reigen's small Spirits and Such Consultation Office, Mob's family and classmates at Salt Middle School, rival espers from other schools, and Claw, a criminal organisation of psychics. This page covers 12 characters across those circles. Each description stays at the point where the character is introduced, so you can read it before you finish the series.

Protagonist

Shigeo "Mob" Kageyama 影山 茂夫

Spirits and Such Consultation Office · Japanese voice: Setsuo Itō

Shigeo Kageyama, known as Mob, is an eighth-grader with a bowl cut and enormous psychic power. He rarely shows emotion, partly on purpose: he keeps his feelings bottled up so his powers stay under control. He would rather be popular, athletic and good at talking to people than be a psychic, and he joins his school's Body Improvement Club to get stronger the normal way. Japanese voice: Setsuo Itō.

Main characters

Ritsu Kageyama 影山 律

Salt Middle School Student Council · Japanese voice: Miyu Irino

Ritsu Kageyama is Mob's younger brother, a seventh-grader and a member of the student council at Salt Middle School. He is a top student who does well at almost everything, and he admires his older brother, but deep down he also envies Mob's psychic powers because he has none of his own. Japanese voice: Miyu Irino.

Rivals

Teruki Hanazawa 花沢 輝気

Black Vinegar Middle School · Japanese voice: Yoshitsugu Matsuoka

Teruki Hanazawa, or Teru, is the hidden boss of Black Vinegar Middle School. He is a powerful esper who has used his abilities to rule his school, and he is handsome, popular and confident. At first he looks down on anyone without psychic powers and believes espers are meant to stand above everyone else. Meeting Mob shakes that belief. Japanese voice: Yoshitsugu Matsuoka.

Sho Suzuki 鈴木 将

Claw · Japanese voice: Sachi Kokuryu

Sho Suzuki is the son of Claw's leader, Toichiro, and an extremely strong esper himself. He is confident, quick and hard to read, and when he first appears it is not clear whose side he is on. He is the same age as Ritsu and becomes a key figure in Mob's clash with Claw. Japanese voice: Sachi Kokuryu.

Mentors

Arataka Reigen 霊幻 新隆

Spirits and Such Consultation Office · Japanese voice: Takahiro Sakurai

Arataka Reigen runs Spirits and Such, a cheap psychic consultation office, and calls himself the greatest psychic of the century. In truth he has no powers. He solves clients' problems with massages, sharp talk and tricks he calls secret techniques, and he pays Mob very little to handle the real spirits. He is also, in his own way, Mob's mentor and the adult who gives him advice. Japanese voice: Takahiro Sakurai.

Supporting characters

Dimple エクボ

Japanese voice: Akio Ōtsuka

Dimple is an evil spirit with red circles on his cheeks who talks like a smug aristocrat. When he first appears he is using a possessed man to run a cult called LOL, hoping to gather followers and become a god. After running into Mob, he starts hanging around him, always looking for a chance to borrow his power. Japanese voice: Akio Ōtsuka.

Tsubomi Takane 高嶺 ツボミ

Salt Middle School · Japanese voice: Uki Satake

Tsubomi Takane is Mob's childhood friend and the girl he has a crush on. She is popular at school and believes hard work matters more than natural talent. Mob's psychic powers do not impress her at all, which is one reason he wants to improve himself in more ordinary ways. Japanese voice: Uki Satake.

Musashi Goda 郷田 武蔵

Body Improvement Club · Japanese voice: Toshihiko Seki

Musashi Goda is the founder and captain of the Body Improvement Club, a group of muscular students at Salt Middle School who train together every day. He grew up on a farm, and he is kind, polite and has a strong sense of justice. He and the club welcome Mob as a member and cheer him on even though he is far weaker than they are. Japanese voice: Toshihiko Seki.

Tenga Onigawara 鬼瓦 天牙

Salt Middle School · Japanese voice: Yoshimasa Hosoya

Tenga Onigawara is a short-tempered delinquent at Salt Middle School with a towering pompadour. He likes to act as the tough guy in charge, and he gets mixed up in rumours about a mysterious figure who wrecked Black Vinegar Middle School's delinquents. Despite his attitude, he is more honest than he first looks. Japanese voice: Yoshimasa Hosoya.

Antagonists

Katsuya Serizawa 芹沢 克也

Claw · Japanese voice: Takanori Hoshino

Katsuya Serizawa is a member of the Ultimate 5, the top espers of Claw, and the personal bodyguard of its leader. Polite and nervous, he spent years shut away at home because he was afraid of his own power, before Claw's leader brought him out. He controls powerful psychic force with an umbrella. Japanese voice: Takanori Hoshino.

Toichiro Suzuki 鈴木 統一郎

Claw · Japanese voice: Kazuhiko Inoue

Toichiro Suzuki is the founder and leader of Claw, a criminal organisation of espers that wants to take over the world. He is cunning, ruthless and so strong that his own members fear him. Claw's branches and their psychic recruits are the main threat at the end of season 1 and in season 2. Japanese voice: Kazuhiko Inoue.

Keiji Mogami 最上 啓示

Japanese voice: Akira Ishida

Keiji Mogami was once called the greatest psychic of the 20th century. As a young man he worked as an assassin to pay for his sick mother's care. In season 2 his spirit is behind one of the hardest cases Mob ever takes on, and his bleak view of people pushes Mob to question his own kindness. Japanese voice: Akira Ishida.
