Weird things are happening in this chapter.

Like, weirder than usual, I mean. Kinda.


1. "THIS MAN IS VERY SUSPICIOUS!" No shit, geniuses. I love Gokudera's face at the bottom of the page. "I... don't... like... you." But really, Dera, you think everyone is suspicious, especially suspicious guys.


2. lol. I can practically hear the Jeopardy theme playing as Tsuna and Gokudera try to figure out where they've heard that name before. XD AND CADDLES, IT SEEMS YOU WERE RIGHT ON THE MONEY. Well, he's not TYL!I-Pin's employer, but he's her best customer. Jesus, Amano, you really don't ever forget a character. Unless that character is Longchamp.


3. "If he's lying, then we'll just blow his brains out." Fuck yeah, that's how we roll. GOOOOOO MAFIA. I have missed Reborn's blasé attitude toward casual murder.


4. SUDDENLY... KAWAHIRA MAGICALLY TRANSFORMS INTO A COOL GUY! INSTANTLY I AM A FAN. Man, but I love shounen manga.

Incidentally, I love how the crux of his "I'll protect you from the Funeral Wreaths" plan at this point seems to be, "Go hide behind the furniture!" DAMN, WHY DIDN'T WE THINK OF THAT.


5. "I KNOW THEY'RE HERE SOMEWHERE... I CAN SMELL THEM." ...the fuck. Zakuro just keeps getting weirder.


6. I find it kind of odd that Byakuran apparently had the time to give a pep talk about not killing things during all of the "GO GET UNI" chaos. HE SURE IS THOROUGH. (But seriously, he had what, a couple of minutes at most before the portkey base reappeared and he had to send all his guys along? He got organized fast.)


7. Wait... what?

Did he just... implant a suggestion in Zakuro's mind? Is that what he's been doing? That would seem to imply a mist association... huh. That was interesting; I'm with Reborn, I want to know more about this guy.

ETA: It has been pointed out to my unobservant self that Kawa was in fact using a Hell Ring. /o/ So yeah, mist all the way.


8. GO DINOPONY~

KICK THAT RHINO'S ASS

This is almost* as hilarious as the shark. XD

*not really. But then, what could be?


9. Hahaha, I love how Hibari's all, "Um, my prey, could you please not fucking touch, THANKS," and Dino's all, "SORRY GEEZ I HAD NO CHOICE." Now THIS is the kind of retarded teamwork I was looking forward to back during Choice and the aftermath. MORE PLEASE.


10. WHAT THE JESUS.

"NOW I'LL SHOW YOU MY TRUE POWER!" *SHIRT RIPS* "BEHOOOOOOOOLD." XD

But seriously, what? A box in his fucking body?? That would make him like a cyborg that runs on dying will energy? (Is that why he popped back to life back in the Choice battle?) This shit keeps getting crazier every week.

Also, I hope they're not really all like this, because that is freaking disgusting. XDDD



So, this chapter was... yeah. Amano seems to be getting her sci-fi on once again.

Kawahira holds a Hell Ring. So OH YEAH he's an illusionist of the Mukuro and Fran caliber, yes. ^^v Although it worries me that if he did that to Zakuro, did he do the same to the kids earlier, to make them go in?

[identity profile] kat8cha.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
He was totally using a hell ring. HELL. RING. He's a misty~~~ alright.

But yeah. I was like 'HIDE BEHIND THE FURNITURE WHAT'. XD And and and. Kawahira/I-Pin TOTES.

Dino: D: Kyouya, he was going to blow me up!
Hibari: D< Don't TOUCH my prey.
Dino: D: You don't love me anymore.
Hibari: >| I never did.

XDDD Hibari and Dino work so well together. Despite their... issues.

ALSO. SRSLY. WTH. BYAKURAN IMPLANTED BOXES IN HIS FUNERAL WREATHS? ...maybe that's why Daisy doesn't die? And why... Zakuro can smell... people? And why Kikyou is pretty?

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
Oho, nice catch! That flew over my head (I don't pay attention to the rings orz). XD

I don't think he illusioned the kids, though. In their case, there actually was an approaching presence, so. All the same, though, with an ability like that, I'll definitely be paying close attention to him. But he seems to be on their side, at least.

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
That just goes to show I really need to pay more attention to the different rings. XD

Clearly that's where they've been going wrong this entire time. THEY SHOULD HAVE JUST TOSSED UNI BEHIND A COUCH. Byakuran would have never found her. HE'S TOO OLD FOR HER... nah, who am I kidding, I kinda ship it too. XD

HIBARI DOES NOT ACCEPT EXCUSES. And lol, yeah, they were a pretty good team. Until Daisy went all horrifying on them, anyway.

WASN'T BLUEBELL FREAKING NAKED BEFORE or am I not remembering things right? I DIDN'T SEE ANY BOX. WHERE WAS THE BOX? I guess part of me is still hoping the rest aren't as equally fucked up as Daisy, but who am I kidding.

[identity profile] escherichiacola.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
Haha, Byakuran seems to be slightly less of a dick. He's probably just getting ready to join Team Tsuna.

[identity profile] charpieinuse.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
I like Kawahira's style. He's practical and epic in a clever snarky way. This a completely long shot theory but I wonder if there could be a connection between him and Mukuro?

[identity profile] kat8cha.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
Oh yeah, totally. But there were no couches before!

Also. My mind went... wrong places. Um. At that question.

Wrong. Wrong. Wrong places....

[identity profile] azartti.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 05:00 am (UTC)(link)
I love Gokudera's and Tsuna's face reactions at the news in the latest chapters, they're just so full of LOLCUTELOL

I'm waiting to Longchamp to pop out of some place, and that Tsuna uses the ring Lanchia gave him.

I'm under the impression that Kawahira is some sort of brother/thing of Verde. I can't unsee it.

Zakuro is Wolverine dude. He can smell people out.

BEHOOOOLD MY SQUARE BOOBS!11!! MY BOX WEAPON!!!

[identity profile] ekmisao.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
There is. See above. ^^

[identity profile] charpieinuse.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 05:15 am (UTC)(link)
Are you referring to him having a Hell ring? I noticed that. I guess I meant if he's the "Comrade" that Mukuro was referring to.

[identity profile] ekmisao.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
There likely is. ^^v

[identity profile] caddles.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 05:42 am (UTC)(link)
LOL. THIS CHAPTER - 'TWAS A POKEMON BATTLE.

Dino: "Go Rapidash! Use charge!"
Daisy: "Rhyhorn, block it!"

I swear to god this manga gets more and more like Pokemon every day. Also - I choked when I saw Daisy and his freaky box. I was like, "EWWWW THEY'RE ALL LIKE THAT?"

And I really wanna know why Zakuro had that writing on his forehead...

[identity profile] rikasaurus.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 01:49 pm (UTC)(link)
HAHA, this chapter was a Pokemon battle XD All they had to do was throw their boxes and then let their pokemans box animals come out.

"NOW I'LL SHOW YOU MY TRUE POWER!" *SHIRT RIPS* "BEHOOOOOOOOLD."

I THOUGHT OF THE INCREDIBLE HULK FOR SOME REASON. DAISY SMASSSSSSSHHHHH!!!

[identity profile] nilly-chan.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 04:55 pm (UTC)(link)
My mind went very very wrong places as well, you are not alone.

[identity profile] nilly-chan.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 05:02 pm (UTC)(link)
You made laugh so hard. SO HARD.

But, y'know, I thought it was obvious that noodle guy was a Mist user, he created people on the street with illusions, didn't he? XD He was also wearing a hell ring I think, lol. xD

And at least Gokudera didn't fall over like Tsuna did when noodle guy kicked them, that would've been the last straw, I think. xD

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
THEY ALL DO EVENTUALLY. XD Though I think ordering the Wreaths to do minimal damage was more of a strategic thing than a being-less-of-a-dick thing. I have a feeling we still have a long ways to go before we see a real decrease in his dickishness.

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I wondered that too. From the way Mukuro was talking about his mysterious mist buddy, I was picturing someone younger, but it still wouldn't surprise me if it turned out to be Kawahira.

And yeah, barely one chapter in and Kawahira has already made one hell of a good impression.

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 09:55 pm (UTC)(link)
I know! It almost makes me wish I RPed one of them, just so I'd have an excuse to crop all of their faces and make a crapload of icons.

One day. ONE DAY. I really do have faith in her ability to never completely drop a plot thread now. XD

Now that you mention it, they do like alike (although that might just be because of the glasses)...

Unless they're hiding behind furniture.

GOD, OF ALL THE THINGS. JUST... WHY.

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
--Holy shit, it is. NOW THAT YOU'VE SAID IT, I CAN'T UNSEE IT. XDDD

I KNOW, IT IS BY FAR THE GROSSEST THING I'VE EVER SEEN IN REBORN. Unless there have been grosser things that I've just blocked out because they were too disgusting. BUT I DON'T THINK SO.

Yeah, on page 11, right? That was weird. XD

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
LETTING THEIR ANIMAL SLAVES DO THE WORK FOR THEM. XD Yeah, the manga is getting more Pokemony by the week.

WELL, BETWEEN HIS SHIRT RIPPING, HIS MUSCLES BULGING, AND THE GENERAL SENSE I GOT THAT WE WOULD NOT LIKE HIM WHEN HE'S ANGRY, I CAN SEE WHY THE HULK CAME TO MIND. Lord, Dino and Hibari are pretty fucked, aren't they. XD

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
I TRY.

Well, yeah, but what with the way he was going about it, and also considering all of the other kooky powers that have been turning up in this manga lately (BYAKURAN, I'M LOOKING AT YOU), I thought it might just be some sort of weird hypnosis shit or something. XD Until the Hell Ring was confirmed, anyway.

Yeah, I guess at this point we should count our blessings. :P

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Y'ALL HAVE DIRTY MINDS. XD

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
TRUE.

Lol. XD No, but seriously, I see no box! I call shenanigans.

[identity profile] nilly-chan.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
MINE LIVES IN THE GUTTER, YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT? XD

[identity profile] nilly-chan.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
I'VE NOTICED.

Hahaha, yeah, I supose. But I just figured it was obvious anyway. XD

Yep, and that sucks. :P

This was glorious though. XD

[identity profile] caddles.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 11:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I KNOW RIGHT. YOU'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO TAKE THOSE BATTLES SERIOUSLY NOW. <3

IT ACTUALLY WAS. Byakuran is so freakin' creepy!
... Though now that I think about it: Box in chest < Mukuro digging his own eye out.
Anybody for some eye scream?

It was weird. I wonder if it's got anything to do with Daisy having a box in his chest?

[identity profile] kat8cha.livejournal.com 2009-09-26 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe it's in her... back?

Or Daisy's just srsly screwed up. I mean. He is a corpse.

Um. Or it could be hidden under the... strategically placed bubbles.

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-09-27 12:58 am (UTC)(link)
|D

ONE DAY GOKUDERA WILL GET TO KICK ASS AGAIN. ONE DAY.

And lol, that frame. SO MUCH LOVE. ♥ ♥ ♥ *SAVES*

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-09-27 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
YOU ASSUME I COULD TAKE THEM SERIOUSLY TO BEGIN WITH. XD

Ooh, yeah, I forgot all about that (well, but it was back in the Kokuyou arc, and that was like a million years ago). THAT WAS PRETTY TRAUMATIZING. But still not quite as gross as this, I think. Maybe just because Daisy's way less attractive than Mukuro.

I thought it might have to do with whatever Kawahira did to him. I need to go back and reread that part again, when I don't have a headache. XD

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2009-09-27 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
All I know is, if she has one and it's not visible in that pic, I DON'T WANT TO KNOW WHERE IT IS.

[identity profile] caddles.livejournal.com 2009-09-27 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
TOUCHE. XDD

That part was pretty squicky for me. ): But, yeah, you're right. I think the whole box in the chest thing - oh WAIT. What about Iris's creepy mutating MEN OF DOOM. The over-muscly ones that were all WAOOOOOOORGHHHH and formed together to make this big, icky - ew.

Huh - maybe. I need to re-read that part again too, obviously.

[identity profile] nilly-chan.livejournal.com 2009-09-27 10:06 am (UTC)(link)
I'M WAITING FOR THAT DAY. I NEEDS TO COME PRETTY SOON THOUGH. XD
