Interlude
(*Cues: Wiz & Boomstick - Brandon Yates*)

Boomstick: He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick.

Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win... a Death Battle.

Mob
Wiz: As a citizen of Seasoning City, you would probably be familiar with a local criminal group Claw.

Boomstick: Maybe even the famous sex symbol and so-called "greatest psychic of the century", Reigen.

Wiz: But you probably wouldn't think twice about this plain-looking boy with a bowl cut, Shigeo Kageyama.

'''Boomstick: Long story short, he's a pretty unremarkable student of Salt Middle School. He's the kid you pick last for dodgeball, he's just sorta there, taking up space and stealing your air.'''

Wiz: The kanji in his name can even be misread as Mob, which means bland and boring.

Boomstick: Naturally, everyone calls him that.

Wiz: So you might be surprised to learn that he accidentally took over a local gang, unintentionally founded his own cult, and is an incredibly powerful psychic warrior.

'''Boomstick: Don't get it mixed up. This isn't your typical superhero secret identity shenanigans, Mob doesn't really give a shit about these things. He's just out there trying to fit in by joining the Body Improvement Club, which he... sucks horribly at.'''

(Mob passes out from running)

'''Boomstick: Oh c'mon, man, running isn't that hard! Take it from me, and I got a shotgun for a leg.'''

Wiz: Still, when his life is in danger or his friends need protecting, Mob's psychic ability manifests as something truly phenomenal.

'''Boomstick: He's mega-powerful. He might not be able to run a mile without fainting, but he totally can if he boosts his body psychically. He can fly through the air, fling objects all over the place, throw psychic energy attacks, lift giant buildings, cause city-spanding earthquakes, whip up huge twisters, and more.'''

Wiz: He's not just an offensive powerhouse, he can mold his psychic energy around his body as a shield. While this isn't an uncommon technique in Mob's world, it's incredibly useful for him in particular, as he's one of the few psychics who can attack and defend simultaneously.
