I'm excited for Ryohei's upcoming Extreme Shonen Extravaganza, but I have been disappointed by Shimon recently. They were shaping up to be so interesting, and now everyone's just gone off monologuing to beat the band in (as you noted) Pompous Villain Fashion. Bo-ring. :( Bah. It's really hard to hold onto your personality whilst still observing Pompous Villain Monologue Convention. One of the things I liked about Byakuran was that he managed to bring his own personal brand of psycho dickery to the table when spouting overconfident "nyahaha, downfall of Vongola etc." drivel.
Tsuna's "I don't have any Mafia pride! D:" was the most hilarious part of this chapter, to me.
I think Adelheid's destiny is to become a teacher, maybe of philosophy or something. Everyone attends her lecture courses & understands nothing, but enjoys staring at her breasts for the duration of class. Instead of taking notes on the lecture, they take notes on the fluctuation of her breast size and how it corresponds to the fluctuation of her coherency.
...and, yeah. Why did they bring Lambo? There's no evidence to suggest to them that he's there to do anything except slow them down & be in danger by virtue of being a toddler with way less power than anyone else on the island. Of course, we know I hope that he'll get his own version of Vongola Gear soon enough and have some kind of epically shonen I Will Fight Too And Be Awesome For Once Dammit moment. But the Vongola don't have a history of being genre savvy. That'd be dangerously close to actually, you know, planning a strategy based on their situation, which is not the Vongola Way.
