YO KHR 258, I'M REAL HAPPY FOR YOU, IMMA LET YOU FINISH.

1.
"How did you uncover our base?"
SERIOUSLY, GUYS? SERIOUSLY? ARE WE REALLY STILL HAVING THAT MENTAL BLOCK? Whatever.
Uni could stand to look a little more concerned in that top panel, I think. That's more of an "Oh balls, I got a C on my calculus exam, what will Mom and Dad think?" face than a "HOLY SHIT A CRAZY GUY JUST BLEW UP A WALL TO TRY AND KIDNAP ME, AND HE'S ON FIRE" face. And Haru and Kyoko look more sad than terrified. WHY IS FEARLESS LEADER TSUNA THE ONLY ONE WHO IS REACTING APPROPRIATELY?
2. Haha, I love how Yamamoto and Gokudera are all ready to bring the pain. If Squalo hadn't cockblocked them, that'd have been a sexy teamup. Probably a fatal teamup, judging by the events that follow, but still a sexy one.
Speaking of Squalo... oh my God my love for him just like. EXPLODED. HE TOTALLY DID THE WHOLE "YOU GUYS GET GOING, I'LL HOLD HIM OFF" ROUTINE, THAT JUST HAPPENED. Somehow I never in my wildest dreams expected to see this sort of cliched heroic behavior from Squalo of all people. AND I AM FREAKING LOVING IT OKAY. He's literally the only thing standing between them and oblivion. My God that hits my pings so hard, SQUALO PLEASE HAVE MY BABIES. *_*

"I'll stay and fight too, Squalo!"
"The fuck you will!"
asdlfkj m-my heart. ;____; WHY DID HE HAVE TO GO ALL NOBLE ON US ALL OF A SUDDEN? AND TSUNA, WHAT THE HELL IS WITH YOUR RETARDED EXPRESSION IN THAT REACTION PANEL, YOU ARE RUINING THE MOMENT, FAILBOSS. AND SQUALO, WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN, "QUIETLY", YOU COULDN'T DO ANYTHING QUIETLY TO SAVE YOUR LIFE.
Why is this manga so goddamn awesome?
4. I THINK LAMBO HAS THE SAME FASCINATION WITH THAT SHARK THAT I DO. XD
Also, I'm glad they remembered to get Shou and poor Lal. Thoughtful of them. XD
5. And once again, Giannini saves everyone's asses with science. Too bad he couldn't have invented these convenient little 7^3 bubble thingies a bit sooner. :P Ah, well, plot wouldn't have allowed it.
And it's good to see Reborn take his rightful place atop Yamamoto's shoulder again. It's been too long. (Either that or I just haven't been paying attention. XD)
6. Oh my God, Gokudera, THAT FACE. XDDDDD AND THE LIGHTBULB, I COULD PRACTICALLY HEAR THE "DING!!" OF REALIZATION IN MY HEAD AS I LOOKED AT IT. WHY IS HE SO FUCKING ADORABLE. I swear if I had been drinking anything at this late hour, my keyboard would have been ruined. MY FAVORITE CHARACTER IS A GIANT NERD.
7. HELL YES, HARU TO THE FUCKING RESCUE. 8D SHE'S FRIENDS WITH A REALTOR AND HAS A SECRET HIDEOUT HOME TO BE USED IN THE EVENT OF HER RUNNING AWAY. In Haruland I suppose there are any number of (doubtless romantic) events that could lead to a situation where that would come in handy. THIS GIRL IS ALWAYS PREPARED.
AND IT'S REBORN-APPROVED. WELL THAT DAMN WELL SETTLES IT.
8. AHHHHHHHHHH
NOOOOOOOOOOOO
D:
NO SQUALO NO YOU BRAVE FOOL. *SOBS*
ZAKURO YOU SON OF A BITCH. YOU TOOK HIS SWORD ARM, HIS SWORD ARM. THAT'S IT, DAMN IT. IT'S ON. THIS IS FUCKING PERSONAL NOW, SON.
oh my God I'm so sincerely distraught at this. aauuugh. :(
9. .........
If anyone says he's dead, I will cry. ;_; LALALA I'M IN DENIAL NOW.
It also breaks my heart that Yamamoto wanted to go back, because BAWW HE'S SO LOYAL BAWWWWW.
10. WHAT IN THE HELL.
Lol, wow, that's one hell of a cliffhanger. WHO IS THIS STRANGE RAMEN-ADDICTED REALTOR? WHY DOES HE SEEM TO RECOGNIZE TSUNA AND CO., AND HOW IS HE AWARE OF THEIR SITUATION? AND WILL HE REALLY BE ABLE TO DEAL WITH THE SIX FUNERAL WREATHS? He's going to have to; as it stands, there's no way Tsuna or the others stand a chance against them, so it seems inevitable that we'll need yet another training arc or power-up quest or something before they actually take them on. ALL THIS AND MORE ON THE NEXT KATEKYO HITMAN REBORN!

I think Amano must have tried writing a so-so chapter last week, weighed the pros and cons, and then decided, "Nah, I like being epic better." HOW SHE MANAGES TO PULL OFF THIS STUFF IS BEYOND ME.
I'm gonna go to bed. XD

NO ONE DIES IN REBORN. NO ONE IMPORTANT ANYONE.
Just remember that they'll go back in time and FIX IT ALL.
Also. Carrying Shouichi on a stretched through town is just... lol. I'm imagining what he's thinking as this happens. 'Huh, that cloud looks like Byakuran-san'.

The problem is that even if they go back in time, I don't know that they'll actually be able to change anything. Because there are infinite parallel universes, that implies that when they go back to their own time, they'll start a new timeline where none of this crappy stuff ever happens. But that also means that Squalo and everyone else already in this timeline are pretty much stuck. Which means TYL!Yamamoto really got the short end of the stick. XD
IT IS FUNNY, now that you mention it. I picture him like, being jostled around as they run, thinking, "Fuck I hope they don't smack my head against anything. 8("

Except Squalo BETTER NOT HAVE.When TYL!Yama gets back, there is going to be rage the likes of which the world has never seen. The kind of rage they make MOVIES about, man. XDno subject
REBORN'LL STILL BE DEAD TOO? And Colonello's dead! So are the other arcos!
