Acclaimed Shonen Anime Confirms Major Return in July

by

Anime and manga aimed at young boys, known as “shonen,” is incredibly popular and covers a wide range of exciting genres like fantasy, adventure, and sports. These stories are often praised for their creative approaches, but the demographic is also known for endings that don’t quite satisfy viewers. Even highly-regarded series like Naruto and Bleach have faced criticism for their final story arcs. While still famous and beloved, these endings often left fans disappointed with loose ends and unsatisfying resolutions.

The new series will debut on July 4th, 2026, as part of the summer season. Anime Expo recently announced that the first two episodes will be shown early at this year’s event. The premiere will take place on July 3rd at the JW Marriott Diamond Ballroom – the second day of Anime Expo. This gives fans a chance to see the episodes on a large screen a day before the official release. You can find registration links on Anime Expo’s official X account, so be sure to check them out!

What Is Mob Psycho 100 About?

Mob Psycho 100 is a widely beloved series that rarely receives criticism. Its story is consistently well-written, and the anime adaptation is exceptional. The ending beautifully portrays the characters’ growth and emotional development as they face challenges, particularly Mob’s journey towards self-acceptance.

This show is adapted from a popular and award-winning manga by the creator of One-Punch Man. It centers around Shigeo Kageyama, nicknamed Mob, a middle school student who’s trying to keep his incredibly powerful psychic abilities a secret. It’s not easy, though, as he frequently struggles to control them. To help him practice and manage his powers, Mob turns to Arataka Reigen, a man who claims to be an exorcist and hopes to exploit Mob’s gifts.
