Reborn! #2
Reborn! Vol. 02: Many Arrives!
Tsuna, a timid junior high student, is a failure at school, sports, and social life. But everything changes for Tsuna when Reborn, a fedora-wearing, gun-toting toddler who claims to be an Italian hit man, shows up at his house. Reborn was sent to Japan to groom Tsuna for his future life as a big mafia boss! Reborn's gun has quite an unusual effect: When Reborn shoots people in the head, they die but are then "reborn" with temporary supernatural powers that allow them to fulfill their dying wish. Reborn and Tsuna make an unlikely pair, but every day they're together, Tsuna gets reborn into a new (and better) guy!

Reborn!, Vol. 2 continues where the previous tankōbon left off and contains the next nine chapters (8–16) of the on-going manga series.
An assassin named Bianchi travels to Japan to kill Tsunayoshi Sawada, so Reborn, the person she loves, can be free from his duties, but Tsuna manages to survive each of her attacks. Another girl named Haru Miura is also infatuated with Reborn, but after being saved by Tsuna, she ends up having a crush on this boy.
Meanwhile, Reborn starts gathering people to make them part of Tsuna's own family, and arranges a boxing fight between Tsuna and Kyōko Sasagawa's brother, Ryōhei Sasagawa, whom the former later becomes friend's with. He also arranges Tsuna, Hayato Gokudera, and Takeshi Yamamoto to fight against Kyōya Hibari, their school's Disciplinary Committee leader, who defeats them, though becomes impressed with Reborn. Another assassin called Doctor Shamal meets Tsuna and heals him from an illness caused by the overuse of the Dying Will Bullet.
This tankōbon is written and illustrated by Akira Amano. It continues the daily life of Tsunayoshi Sawada, and the antics caused by his infant home tutor, Reborn, who trains him to become the Tenth Generation Boss of the Vongola Famiglia. Matters get complicated when two assassins who are in love with Reborn wants to kill Tsuna so that it would free his time so they could continue to pursue him. Several more incidents occur that quickly changes Tsuna’s so called ordinary boring life to a crazy and insane one.
All in all, Reborn!, Vol. 2 is a wonderful continuation to a series that seems really intriguing and I can't wait to read more.

Thanks again to my guy for these four volumes I have 🙏🏻
Another fun volume. Not really much to say, it’s more of a comedy than action, although there’s a bit of action in there. I like Deathperation as a concept. On to the next volume I guess

Reborn es divertido, cada personaje tiene un algo que los hace únicos y la historia es única no había leído nada parecido.

Still going through the set-up, so not much is happening 😅🤷🏿♂️

Hibari has always been my favorite character, so reading his intro again is always fun. Though, I think I like the anime version of him more in a weird way. Either way, this was a solid volume.

Okay this is going to be a short one due to the fact that there really is not much plot in the earlier volumes (1-10) of the series.
This volume continued to develop characters that were introduced in the first volume as well as bring in some new ones.Among them are a rival love interest a crazy boxer and a delinquent. The comedy from the first volume stays pretty much the same with a lot of the humour coming from the absurd situations the cast finding themselves in over the course of the volume.
Some of my favourite characters in the series were introduced in this volume. These range from the delinquent school committee head to the series principle love interests brother who is slightly nutsAnother fun character brought in was one main characters ex lover and another main characters sibling who cooks lethal food unintentionally. this leads to much humour since to start off with no one is entirely sure what is going on and the results are amusing.The only negative is the new potential love interest that got introduced. i found her slightly creepy and just as annoying as the original one from the first volume. The reason for this is that she seems slightly too obsessed with the main character and doesn't seem to think behaviours through which gets a bit annoying the more she appears.
Overall a fairly good volume with a fair amount of comedic events as well as fun character introductions. Should be interesting to see who gets introduced next and what effect they will have on the series.
Pros:
Still fairly entertaining and amusing
New characters introduced were fun
Some character development with a couple of major characters
Cons:
Principle love interest is still annoying and has had no noticeable character growth
New love interesting creepy and is slightly to obsessed with the main character
Limited plot progress

Nuevos personajes aparecen además de Gokudera y Takeshi, y resulta ser nada más y nada menos que Bianchi, la hermana de Gokudera (y ex de Reborn), quien es conocida entre los asesinos como “El Escorpión Venenoso”, pues su habilidad es eliminar a sus objetivos con comida envenenada.
También conocemos al hermano mayor de Kyoko, quien es inmune a las balas de última voluntad de Reborn, y más tarde también aparece un Médico que cura a Tsuna de una enfermedad particular que delata sus secretos en la piel.
En general continúa siendo el arco inicial así que todos los capítulos son ligeros, muy graciosos y llenos de situaciones absurdas que nos permiten ver cómo poco a poco Reborn recluta y pone a prueba a los nuevos miembros del Clan que Tsuna liderará en un futuro.
El último de estos es Hibari y la verdad no sé si me gusta o no, pero sí quiero seguir leyendo para ver que más sucede. Lambo (Rambo?) es adorable y me gusta el pique entre Hayato y Takeshi, lol.
Este volumen contiene los capítulos 8 – 16.

Just as he begins accepting the existence of a baby hitman, Tsuna is attacked by an assassin seeking to free Reborn from his job as teacher; meanwhile, Reborn starts gathering worthy potential members for the family, including Tsuna's own classmates?! Amano continues the strange antics with another enjoyable entry, decently charming and funny throughout. Just what sort of family is Tsuna gonna end up with?

Llega una nueva integrante que va a cambiar mucho las cosas, Bianchi o mejor conocida como "El escorpión venenoso" quien tiene como objetivo asesinar a Tsuna para que Reborn regrese con ella.

Me hace mucha gracia.
En este no hay ningún cap que no haya en el anime, pero sí cambia el orden. Me gusta más la personalidad de la mayoría en el manga que en el anime, la vdd.

Read
September 7, 2010Kateikyoushi Hitman Reborn is a series starring Tsunayoshi Sawada and Reborn. Reborn is a mafia teacher who decides to take Sawada as his disciple as he was chosen to become the 10th Vongola Boss. Vongola is a mafia organization that has had a very long history. This series tells of all the hardships that Sawada encounters as he trains and betters himself in order to become a boss. Certainly, the book is not all about determination but is also filled with comedy and laughter. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading about a character maturing throughout a book or just looking for some laughter.

After a somewhat spotty first volume, this series is starting to find its feet. The rules of Reborn's powers, how the Family works and what sorts of physics bending is allowed are all starting to get more focused.
This volume also does itself some favors by further expanding on Yamamoto's role and introducing a couple... unique new personalities in Kyoko's boxing brother Ryohei and the school prefect Hibari. It really feels like this manga works best when it's focusing on relationships between people in it, and the more people there are to have relationships, the more it seems to settle down into less of "this is funny because random!" and more of "this is funny because humor!"

OMG ASDGHJKL
Finally i can see HIBARI KYOYA FOR REAL!!! AND HE IS SO FUC*ing HOT! Ahahahahahahaha XD
Gila ya aku ini XD Asli di manga ini, bertaburan cowok-cowok kereeeeen. Gokudera, Yamamoto, Kyoya, bahkan si Lambo *versi 10 tahunnya LOL* juga keren banget. Style mereka bagus. Sukaaaaa <3 *resmi jadi fansnya mereka*
Btw, jadi keingetan. Akira Amano ini mengingatkanku ke anime Psycho Pass, karena yah karakter-karakternya kelihatan sama. Terutama di bagian mata. Eh, ternyataaa.... Desain karakter yang ada di anime Psycho Pass itu dikerjakan oleh Akira Amano juga! Pantesan kelihatan mirip :)
Yaaaay! Lanjut ke buku ketiganya! Aku mulai menikmati cerita Tsuna dan kawan-kawannya :D

Volume 2. Here we get introduced to Bianchi, Haru, Shoichi, Ryouhei, Dr Shamal, and Kyoya. The anime kept faithful to the stories where the aforementioned characters were introduced. The only difference is that Shoichi Irie was introduced way later in the anime close to the story arc where he was a huge piece of. Each of the scenarios are unique and well thought of that none of them were wasted and we see how Amano planned everybody to fit in their respective roles later on. Looking forward to the next major story arc involving Mokuro Rokudo...

So many new characters are introduced. Actually it was just a couple, but my friends' favorite character is introduced. They count that as an important accomplishment. Bianchi is okay right now. I have no clue who the kid with the glasses is... Is he important? Rohyei (I totaly can't spell people's names) is just extreme, but that is just his persona. Then there is Hibari. If you want to figure you out who he is, then you have to read it. Sorry.

This was a good and fun vol, though, I felt it was not good as the 1st one. This manga continues to feel a bit random, but we do get to learn a little more about the characters, which was nice. There was also enough twists and turns to make this entertaining and somewhat surprising. And the humor is still good.
Overall, not a bad vol.

Might try marathoning the volumes I own of this series soon.

** Leido de su Version Español en Manga Plus** este segundo tomo sigue pareciendo regular, el dibujo me parece muy tosco, la historia que cuenta es muy curiosa pero no tan entretenida. continuare con el siguiente tomo para ver que mas me cuenta ...
November 18, 2009
Just as funny as the first volume. It's funny with Gokudera hating everyone else and then worshipping Tsuna ten seconds later.
