Oh, Reborn.

Sometimes... there are just no words.


1. My, Tsuna, don't you just look particularly badass today. I APPROVE. And I swear, Amano is easily my favorite mangaka when it comes to color pages. I don't know what it is about her coloring, but her pages always look fantastic. A+.

Speaking of color pages, let me make some observations about that awesome two-page spread:

  • Vying for the title of MOST ADORABLE: Tsuna, Uni and Spanner. And also Giannini. Look at him, standing there with that derpy face next to Kyoko's butt. Awwww.
  • And in the category of MOST HILARIOUS, we've got Ryohei, Romario (WHAT THE HELL IS THAT POSE) and Shouichi, who appears to be dangling from a fishhook. I cracked up at Shou probably longer than I should have.
  • Are Nosaru and Tazaru's romanized names really "NSR" and "TZR"?? Seriously? If so, are they abbreviations, or acronyms? I will give a million dollars to the person who comes up with the best Nosaru and Tazaru acronyms.*
  • Hibari almost looks like Haru. I loled. XD
  • Speaking of guys who look like girls, ALL OF THE VARIA LOOK FEMININE. ALL OF THEM. IS THAT REALLY SUPPOSED TO BE XANXUS. HOLY SHIT.
  • I want Gokudera's hoodie so fucking bad.

* I actually won't.


2. I don't know about anyone else, but to me, this page clearly indicates that Uni, Kyoko and Tsuna have all developed spontaneous crushes on Kawahira. (As well they should.) I note that Gokudera appears to be quite jealous in the background. And Yamamoto is totally amused, of course.

Also, "BY THE WAY, BYAKURAN IS A VERY HORRIBLE MAN" = Most obvious statement of the goddamn millennium. WHICH MEANS IT IS INSTANTLY MY NEW FAVORITE QUOTE IN REBORN.


3. ...

Well, there goes my appetite for the next... ever. Man, Daisy, you are like... the opposite of attractive. WHAT HAS SCIENCE DONE?!

Also, I like how Romario saw there was a lack of Basil, and took it upon himself to fill that necessary position. You're a good man, Romario. A good man.


4. I can't decide if this is incredibly badass, or incredibly gay. XD IT'S A FUCKING FLYING HORSE WITH FLAMING WINGS... AND YET. THERE'S SOMETHING SUSPICIOUSLY FABULOUS ABOUT IT.


5. --never mind, I think Dino made that decision for us.

"Don't hate me for it." ...Yeah. I'm gonna have to go with gay on this one.


6. AHHH AHHH AHHHH DINOPONY IS BEING STRANGLED BY DAISY'S ZOMBIE ARM AHHHHH.

Oh my God. Too bad Squalo's arm couldn't do that, though.


7. HOLY SHIT

BYAKURAN YOU CHEATING SON OF A CHEATING BITCH.

I think this pretty much confirms the real reason why TYL!Tsuna brought the younger Vongola to the future to fight. It seems like Byakuran knows the ins and outs of all of the TYL kids' techniques already. Makes sense, I guess. Although THIS REALLY SUCKS, first Squalo and now Dino. D: WE NEED REINFORCEMENTS. I VOTE FOR SHAMAL.


8. FUCK YEAH. I was waiting for Amano to remember Hibari was there. XD

Also, the line "Hey, bitches," might just single-handedly make up for EVERY TRANSLATION ERROR INP HAS EVER MADE. And then some. (Unless he really is saying, "Hey, bitches"... but surely that can't actually be true. Right? Can magic truly happen?)


9. Ooh la la, we finally get to see the first Cloud Guardian. :D Unsurprisingly, he looks exactly like Hibari. Somewhat more surprisingly, HE WAS A SPY. How cool is that? \o/


10. Aaaaand, presenting Hibari Kyoya's Vongola box weapon... HANDCUFFS. Yes, that really happened. And I am dying to see how he'll actually fight with those, because LOL.



So, allow me to recap. This chapter features a flaming pony, Tsuna crushing on Kawahira, Hibari pimpslapping Daisy and calling him his bitch, and LEGENDARY VONGOLA HANDCUFFS.

Basically, this chapter is gayer than... something really, really gay. XD

1. That's one of the reasons I love Amano. Besides the fact that she bitchslap everyone who doubts Tsuna tops.
* I had to double check and almost go blind when I saw the tag of Xanxus name, because lolololol girly.

4. I can't decide if this is incredibly badass, or incredibly gay.
I SAY BOTH!

7. I VOTE FOR LONGCHAMP.

8. Also, the line "Hey, bitches," might just single-handedly make up for EVERY TRANSLATION ERROR INP HAS EVER MADE.
Lol, I actually made a post saying I would forget all about INP translation and wait for the IEM one.

9. And somewhat they all end up being offspring of the first guardians.

10. Being Hibari, he would probably trow it at Daisy like some sort of boomerang XDDDD

I end up lol-ing more at your recaps than those on capslock_khr.

Yeah, the girl can draw, no doubt about that. And I know, never in my life did I ever think I'd see such a girlish-looking Xanxus. He's usually one of the manlier characters (not that, in this series, that's saying much XD).

BOTH WORKS.

MAN IF LONGCHAMP SHOWS UP TO SAVE THE DAY, I WILL JUST. START LOLING AND NEVER, EVER STOP.

Probably a wise decision. Aside from the "Hey, bitches," there was nothing much worth seeing in INP's version, and a lot of problems to boot. (But still, HEY BITCHES was epic.)

If that turns out to be the case I'll actually be disappointed, and I forgive this series for A LOT OF THINGS. But please don't go with the oh-too-cheesy descendents-of-the-first-generation route, Amano. XD (Reincarnation is acceptable, though.)

Hahaha, now I have the mental image--Daisy being KOed by the handcuffs as Hibari flings them at him. XDDD

Lol, really? I'm flattered. XD (I DON'T KNOW IF I SHOULD BE, BUT I AM. XDD)
