1. PRIMO COVER PAGE
STOP
HAMMERTIME
- GOD ALAUDE YOU'RE SO FREAKING BORING I'M JUST GOING TO SKIP YOU.
- LAMPO LOOKS KINDA UNCOMFORTABLE. HE'S EYEING KNUCKLE SUSPICIOUSLY FOR SOME REASON. KNUCKLE DID YOU DO SOMETHING BAD. WERE YOU A BAD PRIEST, KNUCKLE??
- OH G, HOT AS ALWAYS. WHY ARE YOU HIDING IN THE BACK. OH YEAH, BECAUSE YOU HAD TO BE AT YOUR BOYFRIEND'S RIGHT HAND SIDE. ROCK ON, G.
- I'M STARTING TO WONDER IF PRIMO WAS EVER NOT IN DYING WILL MODE. DID HE JUST GO AROUND LIKE THAT HIS ENTIRE LIFE? WAS HE BORN LIKE THAT, AND EVERYONE WAS LIKE, "OH FUCK, THIS BABY IS ON FIRE" AND THAT WAS HOW HIS LEGACY BEGAN?
- APPARENTLY UGETSU DECIDED THAT PLAYING HIS FLUTE WAS MORE IMPORTANT THAN SITTING AROUND WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO TAKE THE FAMILY PICTURE. WAY TO NOT CARE ABOUT YOUR BOSS'S PRECIOUS MEMORIES, UGETSU.
- DAMN, KNUCKLE IS HOT. YOU NAUGHTY PRIEST YOU.
- CALL ME WHEN YOU STOP BEING AN ASSHOLE IN THE ANIME, SPADE.
Also, I really like how this cover page could not have had less to do with the actual chapter if it had tried. HAHA WHO CARES, IT'S PRIMOS.
Maaaaan, their shoes are so shiny... okay, moving on now.
2. Heh. I like how Tsuna is all, "I can tell the Ninth honestly wants me to revert the family back to how it was during the days of Primo!" and Enma is like, "...are you sure we're talking about the SAME NINTH, here?" Enma knows what's up, unlike some people. Funny that failboss's hyper intuition seems to be completely off for once; I wonder if the Ninth threw him off track, given that he's got the same blood.
Aww, it's kinda sad to see Tsuna sell himself so short, though. For someone who thinks he sucks at giving orders, he wasn't half-bad during the Future Arc. Come on, Tsuna, we all know it's less about you not being capable and more about you just plain not wanting to.
3. Oh snap, Enma just transformed from SUPER SHOTA into JADED CHARACTER WITH A PAST in like the blink of an eye. "YOU COULD NEVER UNDERSTAND OUR PAIN DON'T PUT ME IN THE SAME CATEGORY AS YOU!!!" Geez, Enma, if I had any remaining doubts that you could AND SHOULD be one hell of an antagonist, they just completely up and vanished. I can't stop staring at that Serious Business Eye in the bottom left corner. *____*
4. Lol, and then he goes right back to shota mode. I'm learning so much about you and your wildly alternating personalities today, Enma.
You know, Tsuna, before this kid came along I honestly had you pegged as mostly straight. XD
5. AWWW IT'S A MONTAGE OF FRIENDSHIP. |D "Everyone's so happy since you guys came along! Large became Lambo's bitch, Ryohei and Aoba have hilarious shounen races with lots of speedlines, Yamamoto plays baseball and has fun every day so ABSOLUTELY NOTHING HAS CHANGED IN THAT REGARD, but Gokudera managed to get along with a girl for more than two minutes so if you want to talk about change, let's start right there!" Chrome and Hibari were not included in this montage, but we all know how much Chrome likes creepy stalker people and Hibari is in dire need of a good ass-kicking, so in general the Shimon presence has been a favorable one all around.
6. This page made me laugh so hard because YOU CAN ACTUALLY SEE THE JESUSBEAMS SHINING FROM TSUNA'S EYES. Poor Enma, not even he can resist that.
7. Or maybe he can, because Tsuna all but gave him an open invitation to join him in the bath, but Enma ignores it to call Adelheid instead, so I guess his willpower was stronger than I thought.
And man, this page is just filled with phone calls and closeups of Adelheid's legs and a little boy writing a fake ransom note to test the purity of his friend's heart... is it just me, or did the genre just shift a little to the shoujo side of things?
...or possibly the BL side of things?? OH MY GOD YOU GUYS YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW HARD IT IS TO TAKE THIS PAGE COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTEXT AND MAKE SO MANY TERRIBLE JOKES. Oh my. But I won't.
8. ...XD.
You gotta love how he has the nerve to ask Enma what the hell he's doing. Oh, Gokudera. No matter how many Serious Business Eyes Enma makes, you're still my favorite forever and ever. ALWAYS.
9. Wait, was I-Pin's "what a wonderful morning!" translated from Chinese here, or did they finally give up and match the manga canon to the anime canon? YEAH, I KNOW PLOT IS GOING ON BUT THESE ARE THE THINGS I THINK ABOUT, OKAY.
10. Well, I'd like to say that one day they'll look back on this unfortunate misunderstanding and laugh, but SOMETHING TELLS ME THAT'S NOT GOING TO BE THE CASE.
Part of me recognizes the fact that Enma sitting there and feeling betrayed and Tsuna being completely oblivious does not really bode well for the future, but another part of me can't help but think that even so, this is all pretty hilarious. XD
P.S. BECAUSE I KNOW I'LL FORGET TOMORROW, Happy Birthday,

Anyway
1. Giotto is looking younger and younger, but I digress. The cover is made of win. LMAO @ GIOTTO BEING BORN ON FIRE, THOUGH. I think this is plausible.
2. Tsuna, quit frontin'. You know you did quite a bit of owning and good planning during the Future arc B| You just don't want to be the boss.
3. Not gonna lie. Enma suddenly being jaded made sounded like a Linkin Park song.
4. Enma/Tsuna is now canon. Sorry Kyoko and Haru.
5. I APPROVED OF THIS PAGE. Though I do want to know what happened with Chrome and Julie. It's pretty clear Hibari doesn't care much for Adelheid, but I would have liked to see them included lol.
7. Clearly, they wanted to bathe together but Enma was too bashful to admit it unlike Tsuna. These two are adorkable.
9. Suddenly: I-pin can speak Japanese. What is this--
no subject
1. I agree, he looks like a gangly teenager on that cover page. They all look really young, actually, but oh well. Still hot, so. AND YOU KNOW HE WAS. IT MUST HAVE BEEN HELL FOR HIS POOR MOTHER.
3. Enma's entire plot arc in this chapter is one giant Linkin Park song. A song about violent pasts and promises being broken and I TRUSTED YOUUUUUU OH MY GOD YOU BASTARD. He is rapidly becoming one of my favorite characters, and also I just can't stop laughing at him. XD
4. IT IS. IT'S OFFICIAL NOW.
5. I can understand Chrome and Nametwin not being included since Tsuna always forgets about Chrome and I'M NOT SURE HE IS AWARE OF JULIE'S EXISTENCE, but Hibari and Adelheid being absent was just like, HEY. Just because they had an epic roof battle doesn't mean they're not getting along in their own special way. <3
7. I think Tsuna offered Enma the bath first in hopes of being able to accidentally walk in on him OOPS. Then he was hoping Enma would do it instead but no such luck. AT LEAST THEY HAD AN ADORABLE SLEEPOVER.
9. SHE REALLY KNEW ALL ALONG, SHE WAS JUST MESSIN'. Or Amano just plain forgot. XD
