Spoilers Ahead Warning
I was a bit disappointed by this it was just a recap of the season before. I had finished season 1 only a few days ago or so and I was expecting an actual OVA here.
For the first 20 minutes I was thinking that there would actually be something of substance soon but I was wrong I thought that this book would come to something or maybe they would finish it quicker than taking an hour. Instead this movie acts as a nice recap with a few edits from Reigen. I will be honest too the first time I saw them put Reigens face over someone I chuckled but aside from that I have already seen almost all of this in season 1 excluding a few segments where Mob is writing. He even expressed how he was appreciative of how Reigen was paying him a usual hourly wage with the addition of a massive zero point two percent of royalties.
The only other part that was different from this was the end sequence this consisted of Mob finishing writing the book with all of Reigens additions and exaggerations included and the telepathy club was all proud of him. I never knew he got on that well with them but I suppose he would if he was there every day with the body improvement club. Said body improvement club also congratulated him on finishing his book and invited him to lift weights. I always find it so funny how eager Mob is to lift the weights it seems like he really does enjoy it.
Although before he was going to print the book Hanazawa and Ritsu entered and Hanazawa suggested everyone proofreads it. Everyone agrees to do this even Dimple was there. The looks on the faces of everyone there really just gave it away they were not impressed with Reigens edits. This made for a funny scene next.
This was when Reigen had the book printed with cover and all and instead of his exaggerated events it was what actually happened you can tell he wasnt happy he started to flip through pages and then became really detailed which is when you know he is getting serious. Even better was the fact that his con artist details were listed in a bonus chapter in the back of the book describing the courage it takes to throw salt at spirits. He also shows Mob his fundraiser which had 2500 yen in it. Enough for a takeout meal. This led to them going to get ramen and it turned out that the fundraiser money was put there by Reigen anyway and somehow Mob was really impressed by this.
I enjoyed the last scene it was Reigen drinking away his worries.
Favourite characters would be the same as season 1 they should be in the review for that Reigen Mob Ritsu.
Overall the score is alright because there was some extras and it is Mob Psycho but I probably shouldve found out if it was a recap before watching.
