Honestly, finding where to watch Mob Psycho 100 used to be a breeze, but 2026 has decided to make it a bit of a headache. If you’ve spent the last twenty minutes scrolling through Netflix only to find a live-action version or—worse—nothing at all, you aren't alone. Licensing deals are currently expiring faster than Reigen can cook up a new psychic scam.
Basically, the streaming landscape for this masterpiece by ONE (the same genius behind One-Punch Man) is shifting. It’s annoying. You just want to see Shigeo hit 100% and explode into a neon light show, not navigate a corporate maze.
Where to watch Mob Psycho 100 right now
If you want the short answer without the fluff, Crunchyroll is your best bet. It’s the primary home for all three seasons. While other platforms are losing rights, Crunchyroll generally keeps its grip on the big hitters produced by Studio Bones. You’ll find the sub and the dub there, though the dub history for Season 3 is its own weird drama involving voice actor recasts.
- Crunchyroll: Has the full series (Seasons 1, 2, and 3) plus the OVAs.
- Hulu: Usually carries the first two seasons, but it’s been hit-or-miss lately depending on your region.
- Disney+: In some territories, specifically via the Hulu integration, you can find it here.
The Netflix situation (It's complicated)
Netflix has been the go-to for many, but here is the catch. As of early 2026, Mob Psycho 100 is officially leaving Netflix in multiple regions, including the US, UK, and Canada. Most licensing agreements for the anime expired on January 1st, or are set to disappear by May 22, 2026.
If you see it on your dashboard, watch it now. It won't stay.

Interestingly, the live-action adaptation—the one with real actors—tends to stick around longer because Netflix has different ownership stakes there. But let’s be real, you’re here for the animation. The "Bones" magic isn't something a live-action budget can easily replicate.
Buying vs. Streaming: Is it worth owning?
If you're tired of chasing the show from one app to another, buying it is the only way to stay sane. You can grab digital copies on Amazon Prime Video or Apple TV. It usually runs about $1.99 an episode or twenty bucks a season.
Is it worth it?
Well, the art style in the second season, especially the fight between Mob and Mogami, is peak animation. It’s the kind of thing you want to own in high bitrate so it doesn't look like a pixelated mess during the fast-motion scenes. Plus, physical media like Blu-rays are becoming collector's items since some of these older seasons are getting harder to find in print.

Sub vs. Dub: Does it matter where you watch?
You've probably heard the debates.
The sub is legendary because of Setsuo Ito’s performance as Mob. He captures that "socially awkward but trying his best" vibe perfectly. However, the English dub is one of the few where I’d say it’s actually equal to the original. Reigen Arataka, played by Christopher Niosi and later handled by Crunchyroll's in-house team, is a comedic goldmine.
- Sub lovers: Stick to Crunchyroll for the most accurate translations.
- Dub fans: Be aware that Season 3 had a major controversy where the lead voice actor wasn't brought back due to union disputes. It sounds different. It’s a bit jarring if you’ve binged the first two seasons back-to-back.
The hidden gems: OVAs and Specials
Most people forget that there are extras. You can’t just watch the 37 main episodes and call it a day.
There’s the REIGEN -The Miraculous Unknown Psychics- OVA, which is basically a recap but told from Reigen’s perspective (so, mostly lies). Then there’s the The Spirits and Such Consultation Office's First Company Outing special. These aren't always on the smaller streaming sites. Again, Crunchyroll usually has these tucked away in the "Season" dropdown menu under "Specials."

Why the rights are so messy in 2026
It comes down to the merger between various streaming giants and the way Aniplex or Warner Bros. Discovery handle their back catalogs. When the Netflix/Warner merger rumors started swirling, a lot of shows got caught in the crossfire.
Some titles get pulled so they can be "exclusive" to a new platform later. Others just expire because the license fee got too high. It’s a game of musical chairs where the viewer loses their seat.
If you are in a country where none of these services work, you’re stuck with regional providers like U-NEXT in Japan or similar local streamers.
Actionable next steps
Stop hunting through Netflix if it’s not showing up; it’s likely gone for good in your area. Head over to Crunchyroll and check if you can access the "Season 1" page. If you're a student or on a budget, they usually have a 14-day free trial that is more than enough time to binge the whole series if you have a free weekend.
If you want to keep the show forever, check Amazon for the Blu-ray sets. They are becoming increasingly rare, and with the way streaming rights are headed, "owning" a digital license on a platform might not be as permanent as you think.
