It's great that Mob joined the Body Improvement Club, but he suddenly faints as he's running along the riverside. His wish is to get stronger and to be able to get closer to his beloved Tsubomi-chan. One day, as Mob is feeling troubled, a woman with a strange mask approaches him... Progress toward Mob's explosion: 20%.

Mob, Ritsu, and Teru are trapped in a room where they can't use their powers. And then, someone rather unexpected shows up in front of them: Mob's master and self-proclaimed psychic, Reigen. Somehow, Reigen is mistakenly thought as the boss of Claw, and easily manages to get inside and successfully saves Mob and the others. However, there is no way that Ishiguro would let them get away with this. As they try to escape the 7th Division, the upper echelon stands in their way.

Reigen received a phone call at his office, the Spirits and Such Consultation Office. The client asked him to find out what the black shadow that kept destroying his fields actually was. Meanwhile, back at Salt Middle School, Kamuro announces that he's going to resign from the position of student council president. Elections to decide a new student council president are going to be held and Mezato convinces Mob to run as a candidate, but...

Mob gets trapped inside a parallel world created by Mogami Keiji. Minori ends up transferring to his class, and Mob becomes the target of bullying. He can't ask anyone for help, and his negative emotions start to build inside. The truth behind the tragedy that Mogami went through when he was alive comes to light. Meanwhile, Reigen and the others were waiting for Mob to regain consciousness back at the Asagiri mansion. Dimple attempts to save Mob by infiltrating Minori's body.

The day for the annual marathon and Salt Middle School was drawing nearer. Mob proclaims that if he places in the top 10 he'll tell Tsubomi how he feels about her. Everyone around him cheers Mob on and he starts training hard every day until the day of the event. Meanwhile, Tsubomi and her friend Miki go to Reigen's Spirits and Such Consultation Office with a request. Ritsu happened to be at the office, helping out in Mob's absence, but he hears Tsubomi say something rather surprising.

Mob's attitude seems to change once he hears what Dimple says. Mob ends up apologizing to Dimple because he had gotten carried away from the thought of being popular and didn't hear what Dimple had to tell him before.

The group somehow finally makes it to the summit of Mt. Mudboat. Takenaka had been up all night reading all the texts about UFOs and the Telepathy Club comes together to send a telepathic message into space, but there is no UFO in sight.

Mob continues down his path of destruction. Amongst all of the destruction and chaos, Reigen finally reaches Mob with the help of Serizawa, and he desperately tries to talk to him.
