I still don't get the thing of the Boxes, but I actually wonder if Reborn has something more amazing than those things under his sleeve….
-
Okay, about the boxes, they're explained in target 160.
! The boxes were made to use as weapons modeled after things in nature in the 4th century by a man named Gepetto. It was all written out but the technology back then was limited so no one tried to make them and the documents were stored away. Some time ago, some inventors, including the Arcobaleno, Verde, found the documents and found that the rings would be a good source of power to make the boxes work and made them. They also made different types, like storage boxes or boxes that hold weapons.

Oh, well, at least the author bothered to explain the origin. I mean, it's not like we actually know where the Bovino Familia got the Teen Years Old Bazooka.

That kinda sucks. Font faces are deliverately changed in original form, and should be kept similar to the original in English volumes
And reading how people say daily life arc is boring… Can you tell our (the scanlator)'s effort? T_T It was soooo boring when we were scanlating that part. I'm glad some of the staff members liked that though.
I only read what KEFI scanlation is up to (just because I don't have time to read outside of when I QC them), so I'm so looking forward to the future arc... Once we catch up to Japanese tanko releases, I'll probably read ahead and follow it weekly, too... But will it ever happen?
-
Right now i think the future arc is going well, but it is going a little slow. I pretty much want to see tsuna use those new glove to beat the crap out someone and i dieing to see ryohei future form.
-
That's the problem with the 19-page-per-week limit. Imagine if this arc went any faster than it is now, the fangirls would literally explode.
And then fanboys when the Varia reappear 8Db
-
Just getting to the end of volume 10. (Rings passed out and going for training)
Biggest shock was the jump from gag manga to shounen action manga. Like Gokudera's yoyo fight. I'm so used to the joke fighting and the bombs doing little more that blacken people.
Then the yoyo kid just kills 2 random dudes.
I was waiting for some kind of joke(with them getting up) but no, they were fucking dead. XD
Really enjoying the series so far.
Gokudera is starting to grate on my nerves a bit, but so far I pretty much like everyone.
Kinda dragged a bit with the eye dude's fight though. but now it's picked up with the vongola ring arc.
-
Don't compare Mukuro to the Uchiha
-
…...Did I?
I just said "eye dude" because I forgot his name. I liked the guy, just the fight against him kinda dragged on a bit imo.
and thanks to the fucking 2nd intro, I already know he comes back.
-
so was everyone else reading scanlations, thanks a lot ARTLAND
-
Edit: Nvm, just cut fan coloring without permission
-
So I've been reading for a while, I'm at Hibari's fight in the Vongola Ring arc.
I want to see more of Dr. Shamal dammit. Him and Hayato in my book are at a toss up for best fighting style ever.
I'm really enjoying this. It's a shame none of my friends will read it because of its outside appearance. I felt the same at first too even…
EDIT: HOLY SHIT MORETTI CAME OUT OF NOWHERE. Loved his ability way back when he first appeared.
-
I think this series may have dethroned Hunter as my number 2.
-
Right now, D. Gray-Man, One Piece, Hunter and this are my top four… Too hard to narrow it down to three. If I wanted to make it five, I'd throw in Mx0, but that can hardly compare to the likes of the last four...
LAWL at Hibari one shotting that robot guy.
-
Gokudera is starting to grate on my nerves a bit, but so far I pretty much like everyone.
.
I have loathed Gokudera since he started calling Tsuna "10th". No male. NO MALE should be dedicated to a man that much unless he's really gay.
-
Okay, I FINALLY have caught up to the latest chapters. phew Haven't been this wiped out reading a manga since I started Hajime no Ippo last year.
Here's my bare-bones reaction to the manga so far:
Daily Life Arc - boring, but set up is set up. Just wish it wasn't so long.
Rokudo Mukuro Arc - Picking up the pace, Mukuro is really cool as a villain, which always helps. Was nice to see Tsuna finally do something worthwhile.
Vongola Rings Arc - THIS is where it gets good for me. The action is dynamic, the tension is real, the writing goes up a notch, and everyone goes full-blown shonen-super-hero, as it should be. I was on the edge of my seat.
Future Arc - Unfinished, obviously, but so far it's pretty intriguing. I always like seeing future versions of characters, and the mystery behind Irie Shouichi and the Millefiore family is good stuff.So basically, I wasn't sure at all about how this manga would turn out whilst still stuck in the Daily Life Arc, but it's exceeded my expectations. The only problem I see right now is pacing issues. Everything seems to go at light speed, I sometimes wish the manga-ka would develop things at a slightly slower rate. Not to mention there is NO break in-between arcs. I also find that the characters power-up way too fast. I know it's common in shonen, but here for some reason in rankles me. Thank God the characters grew on me, or else I wouldn't read. But now I love the characters.
And I like Gokudera! Stop the hate already!
-
And I like Gokudera! Stop the hate already!
No, Gokdudera is a failed attempt at a cool character.
-
Hmmm, why do I get the feeling that Gokudera is more popular with female fans than males?
-

Maybe female fans appreciate him more because he gets a stiffy when hes around Tsuna? And any yaoi action for the typical female fan is enough to drool over. This is just speculation of course.
I am female, btw.
-
^What? Really?
Anyways, people like Gokudera because he's trying to act cool but is really just full of fail, which is sad. He's also tsundere and does weird/cute things with his hair. Oh, and gay, so the girls really do like him.
-
@Natty:

Why? It's pretty obvious to me that the mangaka wants to make Gokudera as pathetically adorable as possible, what with the Tsuna worship and the throwing up because of his sister or that scene with Shamal when he says that flirting is all about ero! EDIT: Poll results:

Copypasted from mangahelpersThe newest poll results are in. Chrome is surprisingly popular, though this is more likely because of lack of competition. Belphegor, sadly, does not make the top ten, but at least Reborn does, and the Lambo love has finally subsided. Guy is funny, but KHR ain't about the funny anymore. I was surprised at Hibird's placement. 12th!? I guess the latest chapters make quite an impression. And Hibari finally climbs to the top. For the most boring guardian, the guy sure is popular.

THe Tsuna worship isnt adorable, its stupid and annoying. No man should devote that much loyalty to another man, its just wrong.
About the Poll Results, I dont know why Hibari is #1, and Reborn is #9. It should be vice-versa. Lambo is also too low on that list. I bet you, women mostly voted for the man one. I-Pin should be above Haru. The only ranking that works is Chrome's.
-
Lambo needs more love, indeed. Same for Reborn.
Anyway, Haru beating Kyoko is good enough. -
14th　Sasagawa Ryohei

I have mixed feelings about Hibari being #1. He's one of my favorites, but…well... you know.
still trapped in the Dialy Life arc btw. I'll probably get back on catching up later tonight.
the bigot who thinks being an asshole is actually worth shit
-
The popularity results make me sad. Why are Lambo and Coronello so low? 15-year old Lambo is probably my favorite character, because he's so unconcerned whenever he appears 10 years in the past. Ryohei needs to be higher, because that shit he pulled in his ring battle with the lights was incredible. I figured that Chrome would be high up, but I didn't really realize that she'd pull in more votes than Hibari and Tsuna combined. Wonder why… I like her design, if only because it's so laughably adorable. I just wish Yo-yo man was more popular, I loved how badass he was with those yo-yo's.
Shamal should be higher. Belphegor too.

Less contestants in the female poll. So same amount of votes total, just not as spread out.
AND I AGREE WITH CAP'N CARTER ehe
-
You know what would be completely idiotic and ironic?
If Haru and Gokudera ended together after failing in their obsessive attempts of getting some Tsuna. <-<
But besides his odd obsession with his Boss, Gokudera is at least a bit more likeable as a character than Yamamoto, but that's just my oppinnion…..
-
In the end, it all just boils down to personal preference. (<–-well duh)
I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry about FUCKING MOCHIDA-SENPAI being 20th when Longchamp is nowhere to be found on that list.
-

Cause Christians hate homosexuals.
hey
woman don't be hatin'Hmmm, I dont think I sound that much like a guy; but I guess living with 4 brothers can do that to you.
-

Love the sinner hate the sin? And Gokuderu isn't homosexual. It's a mafia he's just looking out for his boss. Even though he doesn't realise how lame a person Tsuna is he thinks he really is some big fearless powerful boss in training.
-
isnt Gokuderus respect for Tsuna because he didnt only defeat Gokuderu in a fight but also saved his life when he messed up? (even though it was under the effect of the dying will bullet)
-
I could go into a whole thing about the exact mechanics of Gokudera's bordering-on-creepy obsession for Tsuna, but that's a tad tl;dr.
-
Hey, I'm a Christian and I don't mind Yaoi at all. e1n is Catholic and he's soooooooo into Yaoi now. >.>
But yeah, I think Gokudera's love to Tsuna is more of admiration, rather than romance. It's like Romario and Dino. Not many people think of DinoxRomario pairing because Romario is old and isn't a bishie. Imagine if Romario is as good looking as Dino. Fangirls will be scary.
It's just those yaoi fangirls/boys make it sounds like so and so is gay. (Though, I admit that the author somewhat have that in mind.)
I read up to c114 now. …
-
meh, no one in the manga is gay. they're just gay in the fandom. it's the fangirls' fault, really, for going a bit too far with their fantasies.
-
Oh, Lussuria is gay x)
-
Just because a guy shows unwavering loyalty and admiration to another, suddenly its romantic?
What the hell happened to the world? I bet you think Christians are gay for Jesus.

wasnt Judas gay for Christ? i mean he kissed him and all…

Okay, you get a point there, but…
So Ive started on the future arc, and I'm wondering how Lal Mirch grew so much in 9 years and 10 months. As an Arcobaleno, isn't she permanently one year old, so shouldn't she be 11? And why future Hayato hasn't come back from the past yet. Is this explained in the story or are they plotholes? If they're explained, I'd like to find out on my own.
-
They'll either be explained or implied.
-
Its amazing how one joke sparked this whole discussion…....
I still thik Goku. is weird though. I've never seen a heterosexual man do what Goku. does to Tsuna.

Considering Lal is a failure version of Arcobaleno, from her size, I assume she's like 4 or 5 years old back then. Almost same age as Lambo and I-Pin. Then, almost ten years later, she'd be 14/15, which is about the same age as Tsuna. If you think that way, it's better?
-
Has anyone else done volume 13 and up, or are we waiting on Kefi again?
-
SO Reborn and Colonello arent 5 years old? there 1 year? huh I thought they where the same as Lambo and I-Pin. Gah I just got done reading 158 and wow I really cant wait to see more of the future arc.
-
if you want volume 13 and up go here http://www.onemanga.com/Katekyo_Hitman_Reborn%21/
-
I find it funny that they call Lambo or I-Pin adult Adult Lambo/I-Pin when in reality they are only 15.
Go figure.
-
….
volume six will be my biggest trial in overcoming the Daily Life arc
-
Why? It introduces 3 new characters? Just this one and the next one and then its all smooth sailing.

I'm like 3 chapters in and I've already had enough of LONGCHAMP
LONG
