In general, if a character's eyes are more than half the size of their face, and if there's more detail put into their individual strands of hair than the entire background of the panel, I tend to be wary. XD

And if nothing else, the anime ought to provide us with a bit of extra crack, too. I've always admired the Reborn anime for its ability to produce fillers that are actually entertaining. I'm looking forward to seeing what they'll add to the first part of the Shimon Arc, if anything.

And yes! Hopefully the new chapter will be out tomorrow, if not sooner (well, one can always hope). :D
