Second Thoughts
gonna try and queue a bunch of posts because I have a huge amount of unposted artwork and I keep forgetting to post them anywhere lmao but for now take this portrait of TOPHAT, very happy with how this one turned out :)
like im almost POSITIVE someone else has made the analysis before but the 'psychic powers as an autism allegory' works soooo so fucking well when it comes to serizawa/mob/teru/ritsu like. hold on im bullet pointing this shit.
mob - being the main character, we see the lived experience of psychic powers (autism) through his eyes and the eyes of his mentor figure without powers. how he lives his day to day life trying very hard to be normal but also suppressing this part of his identity and the feelings linked to him to assimilate better also theufcking. line reigen has where he says 'i had no idea you were fighting/holding back all This this whole time' AAAGHHH
ritsu - the brother who, because of his ability to mask better and fit in as the model student BECAUSE of his brother's powers and higher need for care (his older brother mind you) his psychic powers basically went unnoticed by him and his family but he desperately wanted them to be able to keep up with his brother (turns out he had them just Different)
teru - being the example of a 'savant' with his powers, climbing social ranks because of his abilities while also being well. a unique kid i can say. but its also extremely obvious teru's exceptionalism made him exceptionally lonely, and the kinship he finds with mob is almost comical considering the lengths he goes to help him. because hes one of the people who understands him best!
serizawa - an older man who, quite frankly is the embodiment of what ritsu would fear happening to mob (becoming a shut in and isolated from others out of fear of hurting them) who!! still winds up living a very happy and fulfilling life despite being 'the worst case scenario' just because mob and reigen take the time to actually give a shit about him and communicate with him in a way he understands
IDK. i think about this a lot. i love you autism. i loev you mob psycho
