Pre-Canon, Autistic Mob, Family, Slice of Life. Completed. Rated: G. Word Count: 1978

Pairings: Kageyama Ritsu & Kageyama ‘Mob’ Shigeo, Kageyama ‘Mob’ Shigeo & his Mother

Trigger Warnings: Cemeteries

“The cemetery where her father is buried is twenty minutes from their house. It’s nice. Rows of tombstones line prim, neatly constructed brick paths that stretch on for the length of a city block. They’re nice, too. She has to pass by the Moriya family grave and a grandmother or two to get to her father, but that’s fine. Comes with the territory of a cemetery, and it’d be silly to expect otherwise.

She usually goes alone, but Taro suggests she bring along the boys this time. It’s good for them to go see their grandfather’s grave. It’s nice.

--

Or: Kageyamas' mother brings her children to visit the family grave.”

The Importance of Autism and Friendship in Mob Psycho (Body Improvement Club)

Friendship is super important to this series, and I think for autistic people, it’s especially important to see a character we feel represented by have these complex and real friendships.

 The Body Improvement Club (BIC) is a great group to look at when talking about this. Mob is different, and not just because he’s autistic. He’s also different because he’s not athletic and can’t do what the other members can do. But in both instances, his differences are neither overlooked or overly focused on. They are just accepted. The BIC never comments on Mob’s social difference, and they never make a big deal that he can’t exercise the way they can. And they don't do this out of pity. 

So often, I’ve felt my differences have been ignored by other people around me because they’re too uncomfortable with them to call them out. And I’m sure other autistic people can relate to this, especially some who have gone without a diagnosis or understanding of why they are the way they are. Struggles end up getting overlooked, and important parts of myself are ignored. 

The BIC doesn't do that to Mob. When he struggles, they just make room for him to do so. They treat him like every other person in the group, and care about him. When he needs them (when captured by the gang), they are there. When he just needs space to struggle, they give it to him. They are all very passionate and “flamboyant” (for lack of a better word), and Mob is quite the opposite. He experiences “flat effect” so he is literally the opposite of how they are, but they just accept it and are happy to find another friend and club member. They celebrate his achievements, no matter how small it may seem compared to their own. They take the time to teach him things they already know and may seem obvious to them, but Mob is unfamiliar with them. They always celebrate and accept differences, instead of ostracize them.

So if find that when looking at the series through a lens of autism, Mob’s lack of physical ability can somewhat be seen as an allegory for his social differences. So BOTH of those being accepted and celebrated is really beautiful and refreshing, and I think that it’s extremely valuable for autistic people to see Mob’s friendships. It was for me!

as always, conversation and feedback is highly encouraged on this post!
