I got a tumblr!

Moving on, KHR 352!
SUMMARY OF THIS CHAPTER:
Dino bids the Sawada home farewell, leaving Tsuna alone with his nightmarish ideas of what pre-curse!Reborn might have looked like (Amano must have had a blast drawing this chapter XD). Reborn handily sums up the dilemma of this arc in a couple of panels ("BASICALLY YOU'LL HAVE TO FIGHT EVERYONE YOU EVER FOUGHT BEFORE"), providing a transition to our cover page, which this week features the Simon family, famous for having the second-hardest-to-spell name of all the families (in fact, Mangareader here is still spelling it "Shimon" as I type), and also for having the most adorable boss, the most Shitt P-est Shitt P, and the most boobs.
We are in fact treated to extra helpings of said boobs as Enma takes home his new Skull only to be coolly turned away by Adelheid (the true boss of the Simon family) because WE DON'T HAVE THE TIME TO BE LOOKING AFTER BABIES. Skull makes a desperate attempt to plea with her, even taking off his helmet for politeness's sake, but somehow that seems to backfire as well! Skull keeps on trying to demand that they FIGHT FOR HIM, DAMMIT but in the end no one gives a shit.
Meanwhile Fon is STILL standing around on a pole sighing about having no one to be his representative, and--HOLD ON, WHAT THE JESUS.


HOLY SHIT WHY IS HE SO DARLING AND PRECIOUS?!
Anyway, so he's standing around I guess trying to fool us all into doubting whether he really is going to pick I-Pin and Kawahira as his reps (WHICH OF COURSE HE IS), and meanwhile Dino, on account of forgetting how to walk, almost literally stumbles right into the Varia. He and Xanxus have a battle of WHOSE PANEL IS PRETTIEST (which Dino totally wins) on page 10, and Dino proceeds to have a bunch of serious business thinking panels while still lying hilariously flat on his face. Romario calls him on it WHICH IS WONDERFUL, and the next day Tsuna and Reborn bump into Gokudera and Yamamoto on their way to school (EVEN MORE WONDERFUL). Yama and Dera confirm that Reborn has recruited them as well, and has filled them in on the details of his curse also.
Before things start to get too Daily Life again, the Kokuyou Gang shows up out of nowhere to antagonize our heroes. Now that Mukuro is finally out of prison he too can join in on the antagonizing, and wastes no time in swiftly declaring war on Tsuna. This causes Gokudera to sputter and make hilarious faces while Tsuna insists that he doesn't want to fight Mukuro. Mukuro is all BUT WHAT IF YOU HAD TO, and then Verde shows up and everyone makes a bunch of OH SHIT faces and then the chapter ends.
THINGS OF NOTE:
- "No matter how many times I try and imagine it, I just come up with weird-ass babies!" Best line ever, or best line ever?
- I am way too amused by imagining Adelheid's thought process when Enma brought home a baby. "Oh lord, Enma, JUST BECAUSE THE VONGOLA BOSS HAS HIS OWN BABY DOESN'T MEAN WE HAVE TO GET ONE TOO. YOU DO NOT ACTUALLY HAVE TO COPY EVERY SINGLE THING TSUNA DOES JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE IN LOVE WITH HIM, GOD."
- I also died when Adel was all "besides, we don't have the budget for diapers and milk and stuff anyway" and Skull was like, "well, that's true--HEY WAIT A SEC--"
- I love that Shitt P on the bottom of page six is just UPSIDE DOWN because that's just how she rolls.
- "I EXPLAINED IT TO YOU FIVE TIMES EARLIER ARE YOU A FUCKING IDIOT." c-can't breathe oh god. I swear the combination of Enma and Skull is as hilarious as it is out-of-the-blue. Particularly because from what I've seen so far, it seems to be less of a partnership and more like each of them honestly thinks they have adopted the other one as a pet.
- Tsuna's latest ring covers BASICALLY HIS WHOLE HAND, and it cracks me up to see him walking around in his school uniform with his bright puppy dog eyes and then HELLO THERE WOULD YOU JUST LOOK AT THAT BLING! WOO MAMA.
- This, right here:
NEW FAVORITE PANEL EVER? :o - Somehow I can't help but think that if Gokudera hadn't finally managed to pull out a victory in the previous arc, Reborn might not have been quite so hasty to recruit him for this team as well. XD
- SPEAKING OF GOKUDERA, so far his imagined version of pre-curse!Reborn is the closest to reality, but I like how Reborn seems to have approximately SIX GUNS in his version.
- Tsuna fans note--the kid is still refusing to acknowledge his role as the Vongola Tenth. I know this point irks a lot of people, but I kinda can't help but like the fact that he's still stubborn even after all this time.
- Interesting that Mukuro is using this as an excuse to fight Tsuna, implying that he actually needs an excuse to fight Tsuna. Or rather, he needs an excuse to get Tsuna to actually fight back, meaning he doesn't want to fight him fight him, he just wants to duke it out for old times' sake. Give it up Chuckles, you are officially a reformed villain.
- I would like to point out to you all that in the span of the single page between the bottom of page 14 and the top of page 16, Reborn somehow just TELEPORTED over to Yamamoto's shoulder like it wasn't even a thing, man. Like he'd been there all along.
- 'Could this be their strongest opponent?' NO BECAUSE BYAKURAN EXISTS. But I'm getting ahead of myself. :P

FON. AND. BYAKURAN. Ohgod, if Longchamp were to show up I would be the happiest person in the world. OR. TEAM OLD!MEN. Shamal, Tsuyoshi, Kawahira doesn't really count but WHY NOT, Iemitsu would be on this team if not for being part of CEDEF (and does this mean there is the potential of seeing a father versus son situation?! ALL MY DREAMS ARE COMING TRUE~~~), and. I don't. WHO ELSE? Not that these guys would need anyone else, BUT.
I have been CAPSLOCKING EVERYWHERE and I do not care. Whatever else happens in this arc I will automatically forgive just because EVERYONE HAS AN EXCUSE TO SHOW UP. EVERYONE. EVEN THE GUY FROM CHAPTER 1 WHERE TSUNA RAN INTO HIS TRUCK. EVEN MOCHIDA. GET BACK IN HERE, FORGOTTEN CHARACTERS, IT'S YOUR TIME TO SHINE.
Fon's team would be beyond amazing if it was just PEOPLE YOU THOUGHT AMANO FORGOT LOLNOPE IT'S CHUCK TESTA THEY'RE HERE!no subject
Team OLD MEN would be THE GREATEST THING EVER but it's almost too much to hope! Come to think of it though, someone really should have asked Tsuyoshi to be on their team, especially if Iemitsu's already been recruited for Team Colonnello. WE COULD HAVE HAD THE FIGHT OF THE CENTURY ON OUR HANDS. Alas.
AND I AGREE WITH YOU AND YOUR CAPSLOCKING, SO FAR THE PREMISE OF THIS ARC IS WONDERFUL AND EXCITING AND I'M SO EXCITED TO SEE EVERYONE EVER ALL HAVING A FREE FOR ALL, LET'S GET THIS PARTY STARTED.

THIS WAS WHAT I WANTED TO POINT OUT WHEN I READ THIS CHAPTER XD
Oh man. Shoulder-buddy♥
"Oh lord, Enma, JUST BECAUSE THE VONGOLA BOSS HAS HIS OWN BABY DOESN'T MEAN WE HAVE TO GET ONE TOO. YOU DO NOT ACTUALLY HAVE TO COPY EVERY SINGLE THING TSUNA DOES JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE IN LOVE WITH HIM, GOD."
HAHA THIS. This made me laugh so much XD Adelheid you boss♥ It's funny just how fail Enma is (It makes him more and more adorable~!) Adel's totally Dera's opposite *o*
And Skull's "ARE YOU AN IDIOT" cracks me up every time XD Those two♥ They're officially my favorite Boss+Baby tandem!
Oh Fon! Just tell us you chose Kawahira so we won't have to wait so long ;_; But still augh you're too cute *o*
no subject
no subject
Second, YES. YES YES YES. Yamamoto's shoulder is like a REBORN MAGNET, man. It's like Reborn is a boomerang and no matter what HE WILL ALWAYS COME BACK TO YAMAMOTO'S SHOULDER IN THE END.
Lol, she has some things in common with Dera's style of right handing, but yeah, she is way stricter and totally unafraid to put her foot down regarding basically anything. Whereas Dera disobeyed an order from Tsuna exactly one time, and apologized like crazy and had to give an inspiring right hand man speech in order to justify it, and yeah. XD
Skull's dynamic with Enma is super win. So looking forward to seeing how this turns out.
And yes, Fon, stop dragging things out already! I need you to go ahead and confirm that Kawahira is your rep so that I can commence FLAILING AROUND LIKE A LUNATIC.
no subject
LONG TIME NO SEE, we don't really talk and I haven't updated in literally forever, but! If you want to add me on tumblr, I am madscientific, and my stuff is mostly Homestuck reblogs (and mostly intermission, at that!), Batman Rogues Gallery stuff, occasional short bursts of Puella Magi Madoka Magica, and occasional bits and bobs of other stuff including random feminism and LGBTQ and etc. Also a lot of AU stuff because I am obsessed with AUs.
no subject
And you are totally added, and all that stuff sounds awesome anyway. Especially Homestuck reblogs because mmm mmm mmm to anything Homestuck, I need so much more of it in my life.
no subject
Added you! My username in tumblr is the same as it is here!!!
no subject
And I added you back! Thanks <3
no subject
Somehow I feel sorry for Skull and Enma. They are failing so hard at everything. XD It's adorable.
no subject
I honestly can't say I really feel too sorry for them yet because LAUGHING TOO MUCH but yeah, at this rate it doesn't look like their chances are too good. Enma may be a SECRET POWERHOUSE (crouching moron hidden whatever the trope is!), but at the end of the day he probably won't even want to fight much anyway, so yeah.
no subject
Just leaving this here. Also, Skull and Enma make the BEST. TEAM. EVER. I can imagine Cozart facepalming and laughing his ass off somewhere within the ring.
no subject
Lol, yeah, and calling up Giotto over in his ring like, "HEY BUDDY BOY YOU ARE NEVER GOING TO BELIEVE THIS..." and then Giotto comes and visits Cozart in his ring because THEIR RINGS ARE TWINS OR MARRIED OR SOMETHING AND I LIKE TO BELIEVE THEY CAN DO THAT, and they just chill out watching Enma and Skull be idiots, and laughing uproariously. |D
no subject
AHAHA I JUST GOT MESELF A TUMBLR TWO DAYS AGO :D:D:D
HEREEEE
I think I just "followed" you though. I'm still trying to figure out this Tumblr thing.
Anyway, THIS ONLY FURTHER PROVES THAT AMANO IS EXTREMELY BIASED TOWARD HIBARI argh well never mind. It's long been established already.
I mean, she even has to specially drag out Fon's choosing of his representatives even though it's pretty obvious he'll pick I-Pin....and maybe the other old dude. ._.
no subject
ADDED YOU, YAY. I'm still figuring out the workings myself. We'll get there eventually. XD
And lol, sometimes it does seem that way. But it's okay. Amano can be biased toward whoever she wants JUST AS LONG AS KAWAHIRA SHOWS UP EVENTUALLY. That's all I'm asking. COME ON, AMANO. JUST DO THIS ONE THING FOR ME AND I PROMISE I'LL NEVER ASK YOU FOR ANYTHING EVER AGAIN, THAT'S A LIE, THOUGH, BUT STILL, PRETTY PLEASE. :(

That narration box about Dino being "completely incapable of any sensible motor skills or summoning any strength" makes me really wonder about his school days with Squalo and all the strong mafia kids. Like, what, was he less clumsy back then? Did he just keep tripping out of the way of bullets?
I love how Reborn and Yamamoto just kind of have a thing. <3
Give it up Chuckles, you are officially a reformed villain.
It is my headcanon that Mukuro will someday become to Tsuna what Reborn is to the Ninth.
When Tsuna says "As of when?!" in that panel, you can practically see every moment of Lambo's existence flashing before his eyes.
My tumblr! As of now, it consists mostly of Sailor Moon and lesbians and other pretty things.
no subject
I'm psqqa on Tumblr too, and I spend my life reblogging instead of studying for my midterms, so yeah. Be warned.
The amount of Dino/Varia pretty in this arc is making me incredibly happy. It's nice to be able to be attracted to someone and not feel like a paedo creeper.
And I would comment on Mukuro and Verde's proclamation of war, but next chapter's where all the truly hilarious shit goes down on that front, so I think I'll wait.
no subject
The fact that Tsuna doesn't want to be a mafia boss is one of the main reasons why I like him so much. YOU GO KID! 8D In fact, it saddens me that there are little to no fic about him successfully escaping from the mafia. I would so read that! (Possibly write it; except I have no clue HOW Tsuna could pull it off.)
Ha, of course Reborn couldn't wait to be back on Yamamoto's shoulder... Shameless favoritism is shameless. I guess the fact that he picked Gokudera as a representative in spite of his latest impersonation of Yamamoto is probably a good sign, mind you... Though I wouldn't be surprised if Reborn made him beg for it. *off to the next summary*

Can't say much more than: LMAO. You are a life-saver, my lady. Your chapters never stop getting better. XD
