Summary:
Tsuna is a hapless youth with low test scores and lower self esteem. His mother hires a tutor to help Tsuna out, but it comes as a surprise to the both of them when the tutor is a baby named Reborn, claiming to be from the Mafia. Reborn informs Tsuna that he's the next heir to the Vongola family mafia family and tries to help Tsuna reach the goal. Reborn possesses the Dying Will bullet, which kills a person and brings them back to life to fulfill the last regret they had, and even works to get Tsuna some henchmen to make him a true mafia boss-in-training.
Right, I apologise beforehand to all KHR fans, I know you must really love this anime but I simply do not see it. i have read review after review of how good this was but quite frankly it was rather poor. I mean the reviews from FT turned me off at first but after watching FT even that is sooo much better, leagues better than KHR. The humour in this anime seems somewhat forced and every single time the main character gets "Reborn" and powers up rather than relying on his own damn skills. This is not the worst part though. It drags! It drags forever til it actually reaches a point and even then it doesn't quite make the grade. Kind of like One piece - this anime only reaches its potential later but I didn't even bother to download that far, I mean I have better things to do with my money. The animation was fair, since this is an old anime that until recently still had episodes running, I'm not surprised about that. The overall story, dialogue and entertainment however just does not GEL - at least that is my opinion. Don't take my word for it though - watch it for yourselves and draw your own opinions.
