....So!

I spent the past two days or so reading Katekyo Hitman Reborn! And. Well. I read it in a very short period of time so i guess it's pretty obvious I enjoyed it. Now I must talk about it! *_*


I had a ridiculous amount of fun reading it, for one. Because the characters are JUST SO SILLY. Tsuna annoyed the piss outta me for ever and ever and then suddenly WHAM! He stopped sucking. And it was cool. It really took the Mukuro for him to start being a fun character to me, cause he really just needed to stop failing and have everyone look out for him. After that, he really started being cool! It's a shame it took so long, but there were other characters like LAMBO and DINO and GOKUDERA and YAMAMOTO to keep me reading and laughing until then!

I have a serious crush on Dino, by the way. the man is beeeaaautiful and klutzy and driven and I love him. I made an NPC journal for [livejournal.com profile] mallowmateys within a few hours of meeting him. I am pathetic about these sorts of things. Ahahaha. But he's fun, even though I've only NPC'd him a bit so far! There was a thread with Hibari that was FANTASTIC! In that Dino was a pest and Hibari was cranky. XD

Speaking of Hibari. Omg love?! He's. He's INSANE. I will never get over him threatening to bite people to death, even when he's in his 20's! That's HILARIOUS. And I want him to go Vampire on someone SOMEDAY. Just because. He could go vampire on Dino. It'd be pretty damn okay with that.

Current arc needs more Dino >O

Other mentions of hot! LAMBO. He is too cute when +10, but when +20?! I almost fell out of bed. He was SO FREAKING BADASS. OMG. TOTALLY WAS NOT PREPARED FOR THAT!! I loved that battle though. And the Varia arc in general. Belphegor is so fucking weird and I'm CONVINCED that his nickname is a reference to Jack the Ripper. I mean, seriously! Prince the Ripper? Which also brings me back to Dino and Hibari again because there was TOTALLY a Shakespeare reference in there about taming the shrew. XD No wonder people ship them! Plus, well. Hot.

I have abad habit of loving the smokers in any series too. So, of COURSE I love Gokudera, but let me say this. If I loved him before, after he figured out the boxes and took down Gamma?! Hooooo shit. He is cool. And URI cracks me up. But I will never not love him with his dynamite and million cigarettes. I'm really curious about when the TYL arc ends and they go back...Will he go around with all him 398759283 boxes in the past too? It's curious. I also must admit that I love him for being like, a closet geek and a stalker and no one will EVER convince me that he doesn't have a crush on Tsuna, no matter how popular Yamamoto/Gokudera is. I like Yamamoto too, cause I mean, he's really chill and stuff. But Gokudera does shit like THIS:

Hello, hilarious. Love it.

I definitely have more to say! But I'm going to stop this squee post here for now.

I have a question!! I need something to read NEXT.

I like reading things over watching them, and I like shonen stuff that's funny and uplifting but with fun plotty things. So any suggestions, I'm open to! SO what else is good??

In which I picspam a bit because I can't help myself.

I just finished rereading it and taking 578284091 pages of notes for a fact-check beta I promised a friend I'd do and man. I am loving it so hard. It's so freaking ridiculous (Gamma = badass, and yet he fights with a pool cue and balls? WHAT) but the mangaka totally has a knack for dramatic panels which has me writhing in my seat with joy every five pages or so.

Like this one.

Hibari is definitely my favourite character. I can spend happy hours at work trying to get into his head. ♥ I do ship him with with Dino, for all the reasons you mentioned, but I also ship him with Tsuna because of this:

and this:

It makes me sad that it seems to be a rare ship. T__T

Also, I love the Arcobaleno so, so much. Lal Mirch and Colonnello = ♥ despite how tragic they are. And I am seriously itching to see Reborn's adult form in more than a shadow on the wall. *___*

As discussed up in another comment thread, EVERYONE is gay for Tsuna, and I'm perfectly okay with that. But Ooooh. *_* HIBARI! I'm there with you about Reborn's form! I really can't wait for this promised explanation about the Arcobaleno!! Aghk! *_*

Amen to that.
