I have no self-control.
Sob would you just look at this KHR addict who can't even keep her April Fool's thing going for one day. XD SO YEAH, I AM STILL DOING THIS WEEK'S CHAPTER (like I could stay away from Adelheid), and the Retrospective KHR Theatre was sadly a one-time-only thing... FOR NOW. MAYBE. Or maybe not because actually it was kinda fun, hmm.Anyway, chapter 284 beckons!
1. OH MY GOD it's a color page with the new guys and OH MY GOD they're all mostly so attractive and especially Adelheid (forget the boobs, look at those legs), but most of all OH MY GOD, KOUYOU'S LAST (first?? I don't know which order they put them in) NAME IS . As a Naruto fan, that brings back a zillion crack-filled memories and immediately makes Kouyou a strong bid for my
2. Aww, Reborn wants Tsuna to make new friends! And of course Tsuna is bitching about it the entire way. It wouldn't be Tsuna otherwise.
Speaking of new friends, it looks like Yamamoto got his wish. One of the new transfer students (IS HE SERIOUSLY TRYING TO PASS AS A MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENT, christ what are they feeding kids these days) is interested in baseball! But you can pry the position of pitcher from Yama's cold dead hands, Kaoru. Just a warning. GO AHEAD AND TRY, THOUGH.
3. RYOHEI! |D And
...Okay, first Amano made the first-gen guardians clones of the tenth-gen kids, and now apparently she's doing it again, only this time they're personality clones. A HOTTER, MORE NOSTALGICALLY NAMED VERSION OF RYOHEI APPEARS?! What will this mean for our beloved Sun Guardian? And perhaps more importantly, does this mean that Shitt P. is the Gokudera equivalent of the group, because my God. MY GOD.
4. And here we have a rare glimpse of what Reborn does in his alone time, which is apparently stalking Tsuna and all of his guardians, and making extremely obvious observations slowly out loud to himself. Suddenly he doesn't seem quite so intimidating. XD
5. Haha, I've been waiting for this. Julie happens to be my manga nametwin (at long last I finally have one T_T), so I have taken a special interest in him. Unfortunately though, we still don't know much about him aside from the fact that he is matched up with Chrome, apparently shops for groceries while wearing that hat unironically, and lives in fear of Adelheid kicking his ass.
I LIKE HIM.
6. And now the moment we've all been waiting for: round 2 of most epic match-up in history. 8D ADELHEID HAS OFFICIALLY MADE HIBARI GO "!" SO YOU KNOW SHE'S SERIOUS BUSINESS. She managed to out-intimidate Hibari and collect necessary signatures by force, omg. For some reason this kind of thing never won me over when Hibari did it but the instant Adelheid does it I am like putty in her hands! I AM SOME KIND OF HYPOCRITE.
7. ...even when Enma's sad and alone he creeps me out. XD There's something wrong with me.
And again he is pantsless! Though quite handy with a sewing needle, apparently. And he appears to have even won Tsuna's pity, which says quite a lot for how adorably pathetic he currently is.
Aww, I think this was the first panel in which he did not scare the living daylights out of me. |D
8. --and he's right back to being creepy again, holy shit. XD And Tsuna, you say "the old me" like you didn't just have your ass handed to you by a couple of middle school bullies in the last chapter. Oh, you.
9. Tsuna's bugged-out eyes in this page crack me up.
10. And it appears Reborn has found something incriminating whilst doing research in... the attic, of all places. XD Well, who am I to question his methods? And who knows, maybe that attic has been in Tsuna's family for generations. Or the attic stuff, at the very least. So it's kind of plausible...? I guess it depends on what exactly he found, though.
Which I suppose we will learn next week. I LOOK FORWARD TO IT.

2. I love how, in Yamamoto's mind, it's like he never ever worries if people are good or bad or if they like him or not; as far as he's concerned, the only possible reason for someone to not be his friend is if they haven't met him yet. XD He adores the world, that kid.
And yeah. A lot of steroids.
3. I did kind of expect him to be a more scientisty nerdy type, just based on the fact that he vaguely resembled Verde
and Kawahira, so it's awesome that he's pretty much the COMPLETE OPPOSITE of that. Not that I would expect any less from a character named Aoba.The idea of Gokudera/Shitt P. terrifies me, and yet I can't help but think it's a concept I'm going to have to get more and more accustomed to in the weeks to come. XD
4. He does have a talent for it. And I'm still loving the DL stuff, although I'm starting to want more plot now too. But it looks like we'll get some of that next week, so it's all good.
5. Katou's not actually in the middle school, is he? I know Reborn made a remark about "seven transfer students", but he also said "seven guardians" so he clearly can't count. XD And Julie was checking the time and all, "school's out already" so it didn't look like he was actually attending Namimori Jr. Cuz otherwise he really is old-looking
though still not nearly as old as Kaoru.Yeah, she's either giving Ken a flea bath or heading to the public baths herself.
Either way it probably would have been worth watching. >_>6. I think Hibari was too busy mentally undressing her with his eyes to do anything else. Fightsexual guy that he is. XD
7. I-I didn't even notice the E on his shirt (wow I fail at observation). That is very Tsunaish of him.
10. LOL, I actually thought the attic made him seem even more like a little kid, rummaging through his parents' old junk in hopes of finding long lost treasure or something else remotely cool. XD And it wouldn't surprise me if Namimori is where Giotto went after he retired; that town seems to have a hell of a lot of mafia connections, and they can't all just be hanging around because the candidate for Vongola Tenth happens to live there. CAN THEY?
And hopefully Reborn will shed some light on that soon, because I'm dying of suspense myself.

3- I kinda expected him to be either, like you said, scientisty, really bossy, or exactly like Tezuka Kunimitsu.
Lol, I thought he was related Kawahira in the first color spread.But I'm glad there's more to him 8D4- Yeah, it's been going reeeeeal slow for the past 2 chapters, but I'm sure it's gonna be an insane arc. I'm excited for this week 8D
5- I have a feeling they're like Kokuyo; they're part of a "neighboring middle school" and have uniforms and stuff, but I'm sure we'll never see a real school. Because Birds and the creepy twins couldn't have been middle schoolers either o.o
6- Fightsexual pfftt that's a perfect term for him.
7- I bet Enma's mom picks out his clothes too.
10- Well the Vongola is powerful to have all the cool assassins wanting to stalk Tsuna, but really, Namimori's always been where it's at, yo. I always blamed the fact that it made it more convenient for Hibari to take place in any of the activities but that's too easy XD
