Why is there a chapter out on freaking WEDNESDAY?
Anyway, the Mangahelpers RTS thread is here, and Kirimi's translation is here, although for some reason you have to be logged in to see the latter? Or at least I did. WHATEVER.
1.
Vongola side: Wha-!?I know this is a dumb reason to lol, but I kind of cracked up anyway. I just love that their reaction is exactly the same as everyone else's. "WHAAAAAT?" XD
2.
Irie: Besides, this entire plan was part of your future counterpart's idea too, Tsunayoshi-kun!!OH SNAP. Tsuna's idea? Now that's interesting. And it's a good thing Shou brought it up too; it'll probably save him a good deal of beatings in the future. "W-wait, don't blame me, it was your boss's idea? Remember? Your boss? WHOM YOU ADORE AND NEVER QUESTION NO MATTER WHAT?" GOOD IDEA TO PLAY THE BOSS CARD SHOU.
Also:
Irie: This plan was of utmost secrecy held between myself, your future counterpart, and the future Hibari Kyouya. Under no circumstances was the plan to be revealed to anyone else.Haha, yes! So Hibari knew too! That explains that, then. And it seems the theories about Gokudera being in the dark were correct; he knew about the time travel plan, but he didn't know that the mastermind behind it was secretly working on their side. I guess that makes sense.
「10年後の雲雀君がこちらの奇襲を予想できたのもそのためなんだ」
Irie: That's also why the future Hibari-kun knew about the ambush from us.
Makes me wonder why Tsuna trusted Hibari but not Yamamoto and HIS RIGHT HAND MAN, though. Hopefully it won't cause much angst in the future. XD
3.
Irie: If we didn't take this gambit to deal with this situation, all of you and all your friends will be annihilated!!Huh. Come to think, he's right. Somehow it never quite connected with me until now that if the 7^3 has the power to destroy the world, it means the whole world is in danger.
In fact! More people… or worse, all of humanity will be in crisis!!
This is way bigger than anything else the kids have been involved in up till this point. It's one thing to fight when it's their lives on the line, or even the lives of their family and friends... but the fate of humanity? Kind of a lot to put on a bunch of 14-year-olds' shoulders (except for the fact that as we all know, 14-year-olds routinely carry the fate of the world in Japan).
SO NO PRESSURE, TSUNA.
4.
Irie: The only way to seal Byakuran's power and defeat him isWAIT JUST A SECOND, NO IT WON'T. EXPLAIN. EXPLAIN!!
in this era!!
-13-
「能力!?」
Vongola boys: Power!?
入江「説明すると長くなるが…
ん?」
Irie: It'll take too long to explain, but…
...damn it. :|
5.
Squalo: Voooii!!OH MY GOD YES YES YESSSS!!1
-16/17-
スク「そろそろおっぱじめるぜぇ!!」VOOOIIIII IT'S THE FUCKING VARIA
Squalo: It's about time we get fucking started!!
HELL YEAAAAHHH
Squalo (GOD BLESS HIM) looks like he raided Gokudera's closet. I'm very confused as to the identity of the guy in the... frog hat? A NEW GUY? And ten bucks says Levi defeats the entire Millefiore force solely with the power of his epic mustache. YOU JUST WAIT AND SEE.
...so awesome omg.

no subject
no subject
Via suicide lol XDDThough it could be a relative, maybe? *PONDERS*no subject
Well, keyword there is supposedly?
no subject
I dunno, I still don't really think it's him.
no subject
That goes into an icon xD
no subject
And it's truth! A mustache that grand... there's no way it can be defeated!!
no subject
Oh man, I'm sort of hoping the guy in the frog hat is Mammon. I- I really want to cosplay him now *A*
no subject
BUT MAMMON IS DEEEEEAAAD but it would be really cool. Whoever he is, he's awesome.
no subject
VARIA FUCK YEAH!!!
Lussuria looks fabulous as usual.And ten bucks says Levi defeats the entire Millefiore force solely with the power of his epic mustache. YOU JUST WAIT AND SEE.
This is why I love reading your weekly reviews about Reborn xD They're always so full of win.
no subject
Really, would Lussuria ever not look fabulous?
Lol, thank you. XDD I MEAN LOOK AT IT, it's freaking deadly.
no subject
I love Squalo so damn much. Makes me wonder if the focus is going to switch over to Italy now. WHICH MEANS HOPEFULLY DINO WILL MAKE AN APPEARANCE!
*crosses fingers*
no subject
ZOMG IS DINO NEXT??! was pretty much my very first thought upon seeing the last page (aside from "LOL MUSTACHE" and "FUCK YEAH IT'S SQUALOOOO"). MY FINGERS ARE CROSSED TOO. Though I hope things don't shift too completely to the Italy side of things just yet, because I really want to see what will happen with the kids now (and Yamamoto still needs to wake up :/).
no subject
no subject
MAYBE HIBARI FOUND OUT. XD BUT NO, SERIOUSLY, WHAT THE HELLLLL, I guess it's more plot development on Hibari's part...?
(except for the fact that as we all know, 14-year-olds routinely carry the fate of the world in Japan).
Oh, shonen manga, I'd never quit you~
Irie: The only way to seal Byakuran's power and defeat him is
in this era!!
skdjfhlkf;djhaflkg WHATWHATWHAT T^T geez, Shouichi is such a tease.
VARIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH, OMGGGGG *breathes*
WTF: And ten bucks says Levi defeats the entire Millefiore force solely with the power of his epic mustache. YOU JUST WAIT AND SEE.
I LOLEDI thought the frog hat dude was Mammon? Maybe he didn't die.
no subject
Never in a million years! I'm this for the long haul, hilarious logic and all.
I KNOWWWW. Like hell there's not enough time! MAKE SOME TIME THEN.
The mustache is amazing okay. :|
AND EVERYONE KEEPS SAYING IT'S MAMMON. I guess it's the hat? XD But considering that and the fact that it's VARIA, it is a reasonable guess, I suppose.
EXCEPT FOR THE PART WHERE HE CHEATS DEATH.no subject
EXCEPT FOR THE PART WHERE HE CHEATS DEATH.But Colonello saved him, right?
But I'm starting to think it's not Mammon, because remember that one page
There are no tear drop tattoo things in this new image.
no subject
And yeah, that's right, no face markings. Hmm. But you know, that hat does strangely resemble the hat/hood of that guy in the upper right corner of that page you linked. MAYBE ANOTHER CONNECTION?
no subject
!!! BUT ALL THE ARCOBALENO ARE DEAD, Y/Y???? BUT...I can't unsee it now. XD
no subject
THEY ARE SUPPOSEDLY, BUT IF MAMMON CAN BE A SUSPECT ANYWAY I DON'T SEE WHY THIS STRANGE FELLOW CAN'T.
no subject
sort of unrelated but: I know Shouichi said that their future selves are in a molecular state, but does that mean it is possible they might meet their future selves???
no subject
I guess it depends on whether or not they can be released from the machine without immediately swooshing back ten years in time like they were supposed to. But at the very least, I expect some decent self-cest fics to come of the possibility. XD
no subject
no subject
Oh my God. BRB, DEAD FROM MENTAL IMAGE. XDDD
"--Fuck! This isn't mine! ...Why the hell's there a videotape addressed to the baseball freak?"
"VOOIIIIIIII!!! THAT STORM BRAAAT STOLE MY FUCKING BRIEEFCAAASE!! WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH ALL THIS FUCKING JEWELRRRRRYYYY?"
(That is, if Squalo didn't simply blow up. Because somehow I suspect that Gokudera's the type of person who would rig his briefcase to explode if anyone other than him opened it. XD)
And mental image!Gokudera does look mighty fine in the Squalo coat, I agree.
no subject
and definitely rigged briefcase. most likely with an ultra S (either snarky or sadistic, not sure) level that detonates when the opener is a swordsman (do not question logic...this is crack) that somehow poofs them into a magic girl uniform. (stupid baseball idiot, lets see you laugh this off. laugh! that'll teach you to steal my handcuffs)
eh...is it just more or does the following little plot bunny turn your brain to mush? - Gokudera...Squalo's coat and nothing else...long legs...playing with Squalo's mind...and possibly Squalo's need for a new coat afterwards.
no subject
Haha, I'd peg Mukuro more as the type to do something like that (since Gokudera's really just all about the EXPLOSIONS!!1), but I can totally see him trying to figure out some way to rig it specifically against Yamamoto. And Yamamoto of course WOULD just laugh it off anyway. XD
...yeah, that's quite the brain-melting image. Oh my. D:
no subject
ya sure he'd laugh off suddenly wearing a magic girl fuku? man that guy is scary. most girls i know would at least twitch if that happened to them.
no subject
Which of course drives people like Gokudera even more nuts.no subject
no subject
Now that might actually get a rise out of him, o-omg. XD
no subject
no subject
no subject
(gokuder - this is going to hurt. a lot. so don't scream and bust my ear drums - bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzt)
no subject
Makes me wonder why Tsuna trusted Hibari but not Yamamoto and HIS RIGHT HAND MAN, though. Hopefully it won't cause much angst in the future. XD
I see it. 59's death. By angst.
no subject
I can totally see Gokudera dwelling on it obsessively and maybe giving Hibari even more frequent dirty looks then usual. "WHY DID TENTH TRUST YOU AND NOT ME BAWWWW." Tsuna will have to reassure him a lot. XD
no subject
REASSURING. IS THAT WHAT THEY CALL SMEX NOWADAYS? I APPROVE.
no subject
Oh my yes. REASSURANCE... IN BED.
