It's hard to see Tsuna like this..he never asked for this kind of life. He's got to find his resolve though...if not..than everything's over.
-Aww, I was really hoping to see Adult Reborn! Too soon? The shadow was just a tease =3=
-Chrome...hope they find her soon!

Damn reborns true form? That is what really got me excited, i figured it would be mentioned some time and the fact that he mentioned that he could show it to yamamoto at will? Very interesting.

Also hibari's training is brutal but something tells me that tsuna is going to awaken some hidden power or something and become much stronger after this. He is truly being tested and reborn seems to know all bout it. Chrome makes another appearance and it appears she is beaten up to some degree. This is getting better, can't wait till the next episode.

Pointless recap, why?

But Chrome is there, which means you-know-who won't be far behind!

And....OMIGOD GIOTTO IN THE NEXT EPISODE!

So now we see that Vongola is a real Mafia family, not just some random Shonen characters

Its about time they showed some realism. Cause being the head of a mafia organization is not nice, its not pretty, and its not heroic.

Thats actually my number one problem with this show. Glorifying organized crime is VERY problematic. I'm very interested in how this show deals with the ugly and down right evil side of the mafia.

As fun and cool as this show can be, the concept of middle school kids being forced to take part in mafia conflicts is a pretty fucked up if you think about it.
Love and Peace!!!

Is it just me or every single scene with Irie is annyoing, or rather his behavior is.

Yep, and while it did work out as a gag manga, if the story tries to be serious, right away it is shown that something is not right. Especially with this type of protagonist, becasue no matter how much Tsuna develops as a character, unless his core changes completely, I don't think that he will ever be suitable as a mafia boss. (at least when mafia boss definition is what it is)

In this arc, the future Tsuna died on some meeting. This is incredibly fitting because it shows that even though he gained power, because he was naive and because of his naive decisions (destroying the rings) he got what he deserved.

I could be wrong, but it appears that Chrome hasn't really grown up at all. o-o
Just as I was starting to forget that this is a mafia anime, this episode served as a reminder of sorts...get through it Tsuna! >_<
Reborn's shadow...I'm guessing that's how he looked liked before the Arcobaleno curse? It'd be nice if we catch a glimpse of that.
Oh shoot blonde guy in the next episode preview, aHH

"so i'm gonna start telling you things cuz i want to." <--gheez Fuuta, way to exploit you bweeb...
either it's just regular plot-explanation shiz, or Lambo will actually think about these things after being told about them and do something -w-..

pfffft, Hibari, ffing imba..
oh, nice, you'll make him suffocate to death; looks almost like that one time in FMA with Alphonse and Wrath (Pride?) being trapped in that bubble -w-

secret plot= Hibari kills Tsuna and takes over the anime. -hohoho, no reason to let him live, but you have a reason to kill him, bwahahah- you just love toying with people, h-uh?

lawl at Reborn's shadow, it reminds me a little about some characters from GetBackers _xD
-...hoooo?

heey- Fuuta's looking cute when he's holding Lambo like a pillow .w.
.....still a trap, but a tall trap -w-

waah-... Chrome .w.~!
....wow, she must be stuck in some kind of delirium?

wooooo- that's a pretty place Yamamoto's in ^_^--

hehehe- lol, wtf _xD?!!
memories of the ring?
......i feel like this is cheating -._-.*

Hibari's response; "I'm doing what you wanted me to do. Now stfu."

ho, interesting place to end.
