My flist just got a little awesomer!

Welcome to [livejournal.com profile] part_b, [livejournal.com profile] kat8cha, [livejournal.com profile] charpieinuse, [livejournal.com profile] vaultedthewall, [livejournal.com profile] ekmisao, [livejournal.com profile] yukari_rin, [livejournal.com profile] katsumeragi, and [livejournal.com profile] mtranc3! Great to meet you all, and I hope many good times are in store. ♥

I would try to come up with/find some getting-to-know-you meme, but there'll be time enough for that later--right now, something even more important has come up.



Now, the details are still kind of scarce, so let's take these one at a time so as to draw it out for as long as possible.

1.
Uni called Reborn 'Uncle' not prince (they are related or just friendly?)

Reborn-ojisama? I'd guess 'friendly' myself, but the just the fact that there's a possibility of them being related is pretty awesome/makes the theororizing part of my brain go into overtime.


2.
Something about Uni being a doll controlled by drugs, but the soul of dark(yami) uni has hidden in another world

I love how every single thing about this sentence is insane. Uni is A DOLL. CONTROLLED BY DRUGS. THERE IS A YAMI UNI, AND HER SOUL IS HIDDEN IN ANOTHER FUCKING WORLD.

I have not the least idea what any of this means, but it is clearly amazing. A DOLL CONTROLLED BY DRUGS!! WHAT THE HELL IS THIS.


3.
Uni holding alot of pacifiers heads towards Tsuna

Wait, what? Does this mean she brought the Millefiore's collection of Arco pacifiers with her? That means that if Reborn and the gang brought Colonnello's pacifier (they did have that one, right? That's the one that was in the box? Man, I need to reread those early Future Arc chapters again now) with them, then they've brought all seven of them together for possibly the first time since the Arcobaleno were created.

And if the Funeral Wreaths and Byakuran have all seven of the Mare rings with them, then ALL TWENTY-ONE 7^3 RINGS HAVE OFFICIALLY BEEN GATHERED IN THE SAME PLACE. Ladies and gentlemen, something big is about to go down.


4.
Byakuran was putting his hand out to call Uni back but Reborn fired his gun to stop him
Reborn: If anyone tries to do anything to the boss of the Acrobaleno, I won't just stand and watch

4.1. HELL YES I WOULD PAY GOOD MONEY TO SEE THIS PAGE RIGHT NOW. Reborn shooting at Byakuran ftw.
4.2. BOSS OF THE ARCOBALENO

BOSS OF THE MOTHERFUCKING ARCOBALENO


AHHH WHAT

Need more information on this asap. I'm getting really damn excited now. 8D


5.
Its Kikyou (Hahah) vs Hibari and Squallo(sic) next week

!!!!

Okay, guys. You know how a few weeks ago I was messing around and coming up with random possible scenarios for the next round of Choice?

Amano--as, I've noticed, she is wont to do--has apparently gone ahead and come up with a scenario EVEN BETTER THAN ALL OF THOSE.

Fuck yes, HIBARI! AND SQUALO! versus THE FUNERAL WREATH WHO NEEDS TO GET KILLED IN THE FACE THE MOST (oh I will relish this). Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine an S18 team-up. Frankly, the very idea of it has me simultaneously lolling and making this face: >8D. I can't fathom how this is going to work out, except that it's going to be the most amazing thing that ever happened.


Judging by how awesome things currently are, I'd say Mukuro ought to be showing up any day now. Presumably disguised as a robot, because I think that's just about the only thing this arc is missing.

ETA: IMPORTANT THING WHICH HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ANYTHING ELSE IN THIS POST: Chapter 2 of Bakudan Bambino (Gokudera's Secret Bullet story) is out! GO READ IT AND LEARN THE SHOCKING DETAILS OF HIS PAST. I am loving this backstory so much.

[identity profile] kat8cha.livejournal.com 2009-08-19 06:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Uni's probably just being friendly. XD I've noticed that in manga and anime it's not unusual to call someone 'uncle' so I assume... (UNLESS. REBORN REALLY IS HER GRANDFATHER. I mean, he is a pimp...)

I. By 'doll' I think they mean 'she's being controlled by the drugs', like, Byakuran's using her and she has no will of her own. I'm... still working on the Yami Uni other world soul bit but... Yes taht sentence is insane.

WE ALL KNEW REBORN WAS THE BOSS.

And yeah. Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. SQUALO AND HIBARI VERSUS KIKYOU. I'm wondering if Squalo's going as one of those 'no element' fighters, or if he's gonna break out the rain shark. And if he DOES break out the rain shark, does that mean Yama's off doing something, or does it mean that only one fighter of each element can participate... IDK. XD

I'm still saying he's Torikabuto, even if he isn't. MUKURO BETTER SHOW UP at some point.

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-08-19 07:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I know it's common to assign family terms like 'uncle' or 'sister' or whatever to people you're familiar with in Japan, so I'm not really expecting them to turn out to be related, but I still love the idea of it.

No matter how I try to interpret those Uni spoilers, I can't make much sense out of it. XD Guess I'll have to wait for the actual chapter.

I THOUGHT THE SPOILERS WERE SAYING THAT UNI WAS THE BOSS? Well, either way, I want more details pronto. I loves me some Arcobaleno backstory. :D

He had damn well better break out the rain shark, or I will be solely disappointed. KIKYO DESERVES TO BE EATEN BY A SHARK. But you're right, one does have to wonder why Yamamoto isn't doing anything. Then again, maybe it's not even a proper Choice match, considering only three people are involved (it seems odd that only one person would be selected on the Millefiore side).

If Torikabuto turned out to be Mukuro, I would lol forever and ever. XD

[identity profile] kat8cha.livejournal.com 2009-08-19 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
WAIT, HOLD ON. Yeah, I mean. XD Uni's the boss! My brain got confused. >_<;;;

...also, does this mean Uni's the queen of the arcobaleno? ( and god I still can't freaking spell that) I'm imagining her like... doing Queen things. Kneel at my feet! And all that...

XD Hey, hey, Shouichi built a memory wiping device once who's to say that he didn't do it for Byakuran again OR Byakuran made someone else build it for him. AND the drugs! Mukuro could be a DOLL. CONTROLLED BY DRUGS. WITH HIS SOUL HIDDEN IN ANOTHER WORLD.

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
Haha, okay. XD I got confused for a sec there too.

IT LOOKS THAT WAY. I wonder if her mom was the boss before her? I suppose we should have expected it, in retrospect--I mean, sky pacifier and all--but it's still a pleasant surprise.

"DOLL CONTROLLED BY DRUGS" is going to be my default explanation for everything now. XD Or Mukuro could have just possessed Torikabuto with his mad sixth realm skills. Assuming he managed to undo whatever Byakuran did to stop him from switching bodies during their fight. ...Actually, it's scarily plausible. I LIKE THIS THEORY OF YOURS.

[identity profile] johanaire.livejournal.com 2009-08-19 06:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Reborn-ojisama? I'd guess 'friendly' myself, but the just the fact that there's a possibility of them being related is pretty awesome/makes the theororizing part of my brain go into overtime.
Me on this issue: Uni is the 8th boss. Reborn is the 7th boss. GUNS. THE MUSTACHE IS KINDA SIMILAR. [HER DAD, HER DAD, HER DAD, HER DAD, HER DAD]
No wonder she doesn't have an official dad. :P

And, and there goes my dream of X18. Waah. ;A;

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-08-19 07:13 pm (UTC)(link)
The issue is also confusing to me because I still don't quite understand Luce's role in the whole thing. If Uni is the boss, does that mean she inherited the role from her mother? And what exactly is Reborn's relationship to both of them? IT ALL MAKES ME WONDER. I bet if Gamma was there he could clarify a few things.

Oh well, there's always the next arc? XD

[identity profile] johanaire.livejournal.com 2009-08-19 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Me says that Uni and Luce and Aria and Daniella are all the same person. Reborn is the 7th boss so he's their dad. Come on, that makes sense. XD;
And Gamma's just stupid so he's just in a love affair with older women. End of story.
*brick'd so badly*

True, true. XD

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 12:51 am (UTC)(link)
The whole thing just confuses me. XD I NEED AMANO TO CLARIFY EVERYTHING ALREADY.

ONE DAY IT WILL HAPPEN.

[identity profile] aradiantsun.livejournal.com 2009-08-19 07:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Robot!Mukuro would be awesome. I mean, the Ninth was already in Mosca, so Mukuro as a robot wouldn't be too far off, right??? Had a feeling from the beginning Uni was sedated somehow, so I'm not too surprised that she's got a bi/multiple personality thing going on.

I'm starting to want this chapter more than the next Naruto.

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-08-19 07:16 pm (UTC)(link)
He would indeed. I would also accept a robot!Gamma, robot!Xanxus, and/or robot!Shamal (I am that desperate to see the TYL!Shamal) at this point. And I'm not surprised at the idea of Uni being drugged so much as the idea of there being more than one Uni (although multiple personalities would explain things a little better). XD

Naruto's been good lately, but I won't start anticipating it more than KHR until Naruto and Sasuke finally meet up again. In the meantime, bring on the mafia insanity.

[identity profile] cleartempest.livejournal.com 2009-08-19 07:54 pm (UTC)(link)
XD I think I can actually understand the doll controlled by drug part (like, since her soul is in another world, she's a doll, and her physical body is being drugged by marshmallow jerk) what I DON'T get is that HER YAMI SOUL IS IN ANOTHER WORLD? Is this like Yu-gi-oh now, what is this
Maybe shonen manga artists like to give shout outs to other series XD
Or maybe in a parallel world Uni is actually ebil...AND WE SHALL SEE WHAT CAUSED THIS

Ladies and gentlemen, something big is about to go down.
*claps hands together once* YESSSSSSSS

4 just made me ridiculously excited.

SO DID 5 OH MY GOD S18 TEAM UP AFHDG:KDAG:DSJGFALKHF

(like, since her soul is in another world, she's a doll, and her physical body is being drugged by marshmallow jerk)

That kind of makes sense. So basically she's being controlled, presumably by Byakuran who found some BRAINWASHING!1 drugs in one of those kooky parallel universes. Though the part about her YAMI SOUL being in some other world is still completely nuts. I can't imagine a single explanation for that that isn't hilarious. XD

OH MY GOD, SO MUCH POTENTIAL LULZ AND BADASSERY AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR DINO TO COMMENT XDDDD

IF DINO IS NOT LIKE, "WTF" AND EXDEEING AT THE WHOLE THING, I WILL NOT BE A SATISFIED CUSTOMER.

I'm looking forward to an epic competition between Tsuna, Yamamoto, and Dino as to who makes the most hilarious faces when watching this fight. (Though if they're not careful, Basil might still sneak up from behind to win; there's no underestimating him.)

[identity profile] cleartempest.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 07:25 pm (UTC)(link)
XD OMFG BASIL, YOU GO BOY

I'm totally gonna be keeping score of the epic face.

Haha what. XD That's magnificent.

[identity profile] rikasaurus.livejournal.com 2009-08-19 08:44 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL WHY DID I LAUGH AT #2? That sounds insane XD Oh, Amano.

AND REBORN JUST GOT COOLER if only the bullet actually HIT Byakuran haha I wanna see this page, too skalgh

And holy freakin crap Hibari and Squalo...fighting TOGETHER? Against Kikyou? Waaaah this chapter sounds so intense. I hope they kick Kikyou's ass, guys!

[identity profile] rikasaurus.livejournal.com 2009-08-19 08:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Wait. What?

...Yami!Uni? What is this...Yu Gi Oh? XD

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-08-19 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
...Yami!Uni? What is this...Yu Gi Oh? XD

Oh God I am so glad I'm not the only one who immediately thought that. XDD

LOL WHY DID I LAUGH AT #2?

Because clearly Uni's not the only one on drugs. I WANT SOME OF WHATEVER AMANO IS SMOKING.

And if Hibari and Squalo do not give Kikyo a thorough asskicking, I will have to disown this series. FORTUNATELY, I THINK WE ALL KNOW THAT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. I'm going to enjoy this even more than Byakuran's "!!" faces at the end of the last chapter. :D

[identity profile] rikasaurus.livejournal.com 2009-08-19 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
lol I need to proofread my comments. I didn't mean to type 'guys' XD

Yami!Uni's going to use her trap card!!!11one!

I'll disown it too if they don't kick his ass. I bet somehow Kikyou's going to have Jesus superpowers and own everyone >:| Or at least put up a good fight.

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
IT'S TIME TO D-D-D-DUEL

KIKYO IS NOT ALLOWED TO WIN THIS FIGHT. PERIOD. Hibari is going to fucking bite him to death and then Squalo is going to chop him into tiny pieces and FEED HIM TO HIS SHARK. (But he'll still somehow be okay afterward. Because no one dies in Reborn.*)

*Except Genkishi.

[identity profile] vaultedthewall.livejournal.com 2009-08-19 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
#4 makes me unreasonably happy. I mean seriously how many chapters has Reborn himself been in - and how much do we know about him? OMFG.

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-08-19 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I really hope this is all a sign that some major revelations about the Arcobaleno and their history are just around the bend. :D (After all, at this point, they've explained just about everything else.) And I agree--Reborn's been far too mysterious for far too long.

[identity profile] dame-batsie.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
Doll controlled by drugs. OMG. It's like Amano has a set of cards with random words and shuffled them and flipped a couple of them over. "hay, 'doll' and 'drugs' -- let's see what I can do with that!"

Reborn is so great. <333

Kikyou vs Hibari and Squalo --- I thought this could only happen in my porny, crack-filled dreams. *tears of joy*

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
OMG. It's like Amano has a set of cards with random words and shuffled them and flipped a couple of them over. "hay, 'doll' and 'drugs' -- let's see what I can do with that!"

I would not be surprised. I just can't see how a sane human mind could make these kind of leaps and plot jumps without using some sort of bizarre method. Cards, a magic 8 ball, the random Wikipedia page generator--something.

I'm just amazed by how consistently she manages to do this--come up with the craziest shit in the world and SOMEHOW MAKE IT WORK. AWESOMELY.

Haha, I know. I don't know the last time a five-word spoiler generated so much excitement and spazzing out. XD *CANNOT WAIT*

[identity profile] ekmisao.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
Being the official Arcobaleno trials nerd, I suspect (more like I'M HOPING WITH DYING WILL THAT I'M RIGHT), that by the thirteenth week of (or his turn in the trials in) the anime, Reborn would be unleashing a slew of spoilers in both platforms.

And please for Amano-san to be finally giving us a full-body, complete-view shot of the man normal-size, in manga, in manga, in manga. (At which time I shall faint.)

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 04:27 pm (UTC)(link)
I sure hope so. That would be like happy fangirl overload for me. :D

AND I AGREE SO HARD; I'm dying for a full glimpse of adult Reborn. All these tantalizing little hints we've been getting are starting to drive me nuts. XD

[identity profile] nilly-chan.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 08:45 am (UTC)(link)
I... I have no idea what to think about that... I mean, what? A doll controlled by drug with a dark sou that's in another world? Huh?

Wasn't it Lal's clouded pacifier in Colonello's box?

Hopefully, S18 will kick Kikyou's ass three ways to Sunday. And hopefully Gokudera will actually do something except fail more than any character has ever done in this manga.

[identity profile] charpieinuse.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 08:50 am (UTC)(link)
I agree. Gokudera has failed us all these past chapters......

[identity profile] nilly-chan.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 09:33 am (UTC)(link)
Gokudera is supposed to be an awesome genius dork, not a failtastic geek who thinks too highly of himself. >:/

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 04:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Consensus seems to be that it means Uni's body is being controlled like a "doll" by Byakuran through use of crazy mind-control drugs. As for the dark soul in another world, WHO EVEN KNOWS MAN.

MAYBE? You would know better than I would, I think. XD Like I said, I really need to reread all of that over again.

They had better; if those two can't do it, I almost hope the Vongola lose to Byakuran after all, because a world in which Kikyo continues to triumph is a world without justice or hope. And yeah, seriously. PLZ TO BE GIVING THE STORM GUARDIAN A CHANCE FOR REDEMPTION.

[identity profile] nilly-chan.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 08:00 pm (UTC)(link)
But... why would mind-controlling drugs work on a doll in the first place? :/That's what I'm not getting.

I have a ridiculously good memory for details. XD

That would be so much fail that the Universe would implode. Ugh. We need more Storm Guardian WIN!

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, this is all assuming that "doll" is just a metaphor for her body being more or less just a shell of her old self without her soul which is off IN SOME OTHER WORLD or whatever the fuck. I DON'T PRETEND IT MAKES ANY SENSE.

Certainly better than me, anyway. I tend to forget about everything until something piques my interest and makes me go back and reread and THEORIZE!!1

AND WE ALL KNOW THAT CANNOT BE ALLOWED TO HAPPEN.

[identity profile] nilly-chan.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
That, of course, is a possibility. Not that it makes any damn sense, how can a soulless shell of a body have a mind to be controlled? But at least hat makes more sense than a doll being drugged. Really.

Did you know, that most polar bears are left handed? I read that once in a Donald Duck magazine when I was 7, I have never forgotten it since. It's ridiculous.

IT WOULD BE TERRIBLE.

[identity profile] charpieinuse.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 08:49 am (UTC)(link)
Heh. Spoilers FTW. BTW I love your taglines. They are made of much win!

1. Reborn is the giant encyclopedia of everything mafia, so it wouldn't surprise me if they were on friendly term basis. Especially since Uni seemed to inherit all knowledge about what's going on. BUT, I must agree with you and say that if they were related in any way possible, that would be freaking awesome!

2. o.O. It would explain why Uni went from being completely cute to empty in one meeting. Truthfully, I think Byakuran is the doll being drugged by the Wall. It's those marshmallows...

As for the dark Yami Uni? All I can think of is Yu-Gi-Oh comparison...sad as that is.

3. Dude, something big will go down. The Wall will appear AGAIN!

4. HOLYF***KINGS**T. I wanna see that nao....like honestly NAO!!!

I'm not surprised that Uni would be considered the boss of the Arcobaleno, she is afterall carrying the Sky Flame pacifier. I do like this as a plot twist, especially since Amano makes it seem like Reborn is the awesome boss (even if Uni is the boss, Reborn is the awesome second!).

5. as'drfjksd'gjae'dfgv'sjkkaf *spasm*

Two of the biggest Vongola bad-asses going against plant-boy....*dies*
I really hope this turns into an awesome ass fight. It can't be anything less than that. I really can't wait to see Squalo go all out.

Kikyo does need much killing int he face, but I want to see the other wreaths fight as well.

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 04:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha, thanks. I FREELY ADMIT THAT MY SQUALO TAG IN PARTICULAR MAKES ME UNREASONABLY HAPPY EVERY TIME I USE IT.

1. Yeah, like I said, logic says they're just on familiar terms. BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN IT WOULDN'T BE AWESOME IF IT WAS MORE THAN THAT.

2. Agreed, and the mystery of why Uni joined Byakuran is one of the few in the arc that hasn't yet been solved, so it looks like we're finally going to get details on that. And lol, marshmallows--well, if anyone wanted to get at Byakuran, that would probably be the way to do it. I WOULDN'T PUT IT PAST THE WALL.

4. Yeah, considering how sky = boss in general, I guess it's not too surprising. But I am a little surprised that Uni seems to have inherited the leader role from her mother even despite her age. But the more I think about it, the more I like the idea of Reborn not being the leader; he does seem to do very nicely in the advisor/second-in-command role.

5. Kikyo does need much killing in the face, but I want to see the other wreaths fight as well.

Well, but that's why Hibari and Squalo need to hurry up and take him out; he's been hogging all the spotlight. KICK HIS ASS ALREADY SO GOKUDERA CAN FIGHT THE LAVA GUY.

[identity profile] charpieinuse.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 05:02 pm (UTC)(link)
XD YES GOKUDERA MUST REVOKE HIS LAMENESS FROM THE PAST FEW CHAPTERS!!!!

Here's my general rule when it comes to things that don't make sense in the KHR world. From the beginning, the series has always had crack tendencies towards it, so when there are weird things that can't be explained. I just blame it on the crackness that has always been there.

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 09:19 pm (UTC)(link)
HE MUST BE ALLOWED TO REDEEM HIMSELF.

Makes sense to me. Besides, if you have enough willpower to ignore the weirdness (which I admit, I don't always XD), every so often Amano rewards you by suddenly explaining everything HUNDREDS OF CHAPTERS LATER in a way that leaves you making WTF faces at everything AND YET it somehow all makes sense.

[identity profile] mtranc3.livejournal.com 2009-08-20 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Thankies for the welcome!^^

Of course! <333

[identity profile] caddles.livejournal.com 2009-08-25 09:57 am (UTC)(link)
I personally think that Hibari and Squalo are going to have a bitch fight about who gets to date Dino instead of fighting Kikyou. <3

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-08-25 02:52 pm (UTC)(link)
I just can't wait to see Dino's reaction to the whole thing. Like 90 percent of my anticipation for the next chapter is built solely around seeing what faces he's going to make. XDD

[identity profile] caddles.livejournal.com 2009-08-25 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
That, and the reaction that Basil is going to have. <3 I can't wait already.

Dino is going to watch them fight, flick his golden mafia-business-party hair and enjoy it.
