The Arcobaleno Club

Arcobaleno Pacifiers The Arcobaleno ("rainbow" in Italian) is a group made up of the seven strongest infants, who each possess a pacifier Arcobaleno past and future that represent the different colors of the rainbow with each color corresponding with their Dying Will Flame. Their pacifiers will glow when a member is near another Arcobaleno. The Arcobaleno were transformed from adults into their infant and current forms; in Lal's flashback of the day it is revealed that they were all turned into babies and all seven of the Arcobaleno are shown at least once in their adult forms (Colonnello is not part of the original seven). Each of them has their unique own "curse" and specific abilities, as well as the ability to emit the Dying Will Flame throughout their entire body. They are mentioned to have sacrificed themselves in order to protect the Tri-Ni-Sette (7³), or "ultimate power". The Arcobaleno are also mentioned to be "walking out of time" meaning that they cannot age or die due to old age, it is evident as Uni calls Reborn "grandpa" meaning that Reborn has lived through the generation from Luce to Uni. REBORN Reborn is the holder of the Yellow Pacifier. The titular character, Reborn is an infant hitman belonging to the Vongola Family. As the Vongola IX's most trusted member, he becomes Tsuna's home tutor and trains him into becoming a mob boss. Since he is an official Vongola member and is only there to train Tsuna, he is not allowed to directly interfere with most of Tsuna's battles though he is allowed to defend against attacks directed solely at him. His "partner" is a shape-shifting chameleon named Leon, who usually sits on Reborn's fedora. The bullets used by Reborn are created inside Leon. When Reborn's student is gradually progressing, Leon's tail falls off, his shape-shifting abilities become unstable, and he is no longer able to create bullets. After Leon creates special items for the student, he returns to normal. No matter how strong the emotion, Reborn always keeps a straight face and handles many situations as calmly as possible. Reborn often says "Ciaossu" (a mix of the Italian "ciao" and the Japanese "ossu", which is a casual male greeting). He randomly appears dressed as "another person" who no one except Tsuna recognizes, and seems to see nothing unusual in any of his own behavior; often he uses costumes when he goes undercover to view Tsuna's progress. In the future, Reborn is mentioned to be dead, and in order to avoid the Negative Seven Rays which Byakuran unleashed in the atmosphere in order to slowly kill the Arcobaleno, the past's Reborn remains in Tsuna's underground base and wears a special suit. He is normally voiced by Neeko in the anime but in his short appearances as an adult, Ken Narita voices him. Reborn's special attack is called Chaos Shot. It fires a Sun attribute beam out of Leon in his pistol form.The beam can split up into several other beams as Reborn wants them too, and can hit multiple enemies or hit the same enemy from different directions. His trial tests is ability to fight for the family as a boss. Verde Verde is the holder of the Green Pacifier. He is briefly mentioned by Reborn as the person who sent assassins to kill Tsuna. Apparently, Verde is knowledgeable about camouflage and invisibility, so he gives his subordinates suits that can make them invisible to everyone but children. Verde believes that he should be able to see his subordinates in case they ever try to sneak up on him in order to kill him. His animal is a crocodile/alligator as seen in Episode 152. His special attack is called Electrico Thunder which calls down powerful paralyzing lighting but it didn't affect Lambo who has a special physical make-up that is immune to lightning. His trial is a test of intuition. Verde is also one of the three scientists who develops the Box Weapons in the future, where he is said to be dead like the other Arcobaleno. Reborn and Lal Mirch note that while Verde is an Arcobaleno, he is "not one of us," and "you can never tell what he is thinking." Verde appears to be an extremely mysterious person who is devoted to further progressing his experiments; according to Reborn, he'd do anything for them. Colonnello Colonnello is the holder of the Blue Pacifier. Although he is not part of the original seven Arcobaleno, he attained the blue pacifier after attempting to take Lal's place on the day that they were all turned into babies. He is in charge of the training ground behind Mafia Land and was a former member of the COMSUBIN, thus he is an expert when it come to using heavy artillery, using an anti-tank rifle as his primary weapon. His animal is the Hawk on top of his head (in infant form) which helps him fly to distant places. Colonnello also has a rivalry with towards Reborn and vice-versa, but despite this, he shares many traits with Reborn, like being a merciless tutor, suddenly taking naps, and having a sharp tongue. He becomes Ryohei's home tutor during the Vongola Ring Conflict, and in the future, he is said to have died trying to protect Viper (Mammon). He is voiced by Daisuke Nakamura in the anime. Colonnello's special attack is called Maximum Burst. It shoots out an rain attributes flame that is in the shape of a hawk and has strong attack force. His trial is combat ability. Skull Skull is the holder of the Purple Pacifier. Head of the combat forces for the Calcassa Family, Skull wears a full leather outfit and a motorcycle helmet, which is copied by all his subordinates. His animal is a giant armored octopus whose tentacles follow his hand and finger's movements. He is implied to be not as powerful an infant as Reborn and Colonnello, whom he calls his senpais, and is looked down upon and ridiculed by the two. Reborn considers Skull as an errand boy and Skull, to his dismay, does not deny the fact that the only person he was an errand boy for was Reborn.[1] He is said to have died in the future, with the rest of the Arcobaleno. He is voiced by Tetsuya Yanagihara in the anime. Skull's special ability is called Armored Muscled Body. When skull uses this ability he becomes very muscular and impervious to pain or damage. His trial is charisma. Viper Viper is the holder of the Indigo Pacifier. He is a member of the elite assassination team, the Varia, under the name Mammon|マーモン|Māmon}}. Known as the Arcobaleno's best spellcaster and illusionist, Viper has the ability to cast powerful illusions, as well as being able to locate any person by sneezing into a piece of paper (he carries a roll of paper with him); the spit or mucus that sticks to the paper shows a map leading to where the desired person is. His animal is a black frog named Fantasma that lies on top of his head. By turning into a yellow salamander and biting its tail, which forms into a "halo" above him, more properly called an "Orouboros", a snake biting it's own tail, Fantasma can give Mammon the ability to fly in combat. Viper's special ability is called Viper Mirage which allows him to create powerful illusions. His trial is adaptability. He claims to have been trying to break the Arcobaleno curse, and had sealed his pacifier so that other Arcobaleno could not sense him. He has also created a chain that conceals the power of the Arcobaleno pacifiers, as well as the Vongola Rings. The chain is known as the Mammon chain, but is replaced, at least by the Vongolas, by the cap that conceals the rings powers the same way as the chains. During the ring conflict, he defeats Chrome Dokuro, however, he is defeated by Mukuro once the latter takes possession of Chrome's body. He is said to be dead in the future, with Gingerbread claiming that he took his own life after feeling there was no other way out. He is voiced by Rumi Shishido in the anime. Luce/Aria/Uni Luce is the holder of the Orange Pacifier. Her animal is a squirrel. In the anime, Reborn says that she has a 'mysterious power of insight'. She is shown to be pregnant in the 6.5 version of Easy Go and Reborn's explanations of the Arcobalenos in episode 142. It is evident that the pacifier can be passed down from the original Arcobaleno to the next generations as Luce had passed it down to Aria who in turn passed it down to Uni. Aria held the Sky pacifier in the short time between Luce's and her deaths. She appeared to have had a close relationship with Gamma . In the manga, chapter 254, Reborn specifically states that Uni is the Arcobaleno boss, even though she is not an Arcobaleno herself. In the Arcobaleno Trials Arc, Luce's daughter and Uni's mother, Aria, was the one to administer of the Sky trial. Aria's trial is the trial of tolerance. Fon Fon (風) is the holder of the Red Pacifier and is the Master of I-Pin. He originates from China, and is also an experienced martial artist. He also resembles Kyoya Hibari in terms of looks. Fon is seen in his infant form in episode 142. His animal is a monkey, most likely a Bald Uakari. His special attack is called Exploding Lotus Kempo which allows him to blast a chinese dragon made of Storm Flames at his opponent. His trial is leadership. Lal Mirch Lal Mirch is the holder of a corrupted pacifier. She is a female member of the Arcobaleno who states that she cannot live up to the Arcobaleno name, considering herself to be one of its weakest members. She works along side Tsuna's father, Iemitsu in the CEDEF organization for Vongola IX. Lal Mirch plays a crucial role in the Future Arc by training Tsuna for the invasion of the Melone Base. She accompanies Tsuna and his family to the invasion and collapses after a battle against Vice-Captain of the 8th Squad, Gingerbread. After the Choice battle, she is seen fleeing the Vongola base after Zakuro attacks the base. Her special attack in the Arcobaleno Trials Arc is called Survival Blast which seems to be a set of pinpoint shotgun blasts. She beat one incomplete box weapon with this technique and stunned another. Trivia * Interestingly, while 'Arcobaleno' is the Italian word for 'rainbow' and 'arco' is an Italian word for 'bow or arc,' 'baleno' actually translates to lightning. * There are 8 pacifiers, but only 7 spaces on the 7³ (Tri-Ni-Sette). * Tri-Ni-Sette made the Arcobaleno, but Non Tri-Ni-Sette emits waves which kill the Arcobaleno. * The color of a pacifier is the same color as the owner's flame. * When a pacifier is placed on the 7³ or forcefully taken, it loses its color. * The pacifiers are also rings that can emit Dying Will Flames. * The Sky Arcobaleno are said to have a very short life. * All of the previous and current Sky Acrobaleno have a clover mark below the left eye around the cheek. * Colonnello took Lal Mirch's place as Arcobaleno of Rain (Blue Pacifier), causing Lal Mirch to become an incomplete Arcobaleno and the holder of a corrupt pacifier. * Lal Mirch's Flame type changed from Rain to Cloud and Mist after she became an incomplete Arcobaleno. * Arcobaleno are said to be able to emit Dying Will Flames throughout their bodies as shown in Lal Mirch's fight against Ginger Bread. * All of the Arcobaleno, except for Lal Mirch, have an animal partner. * In the Arcobaleno-Trial Arc, Tsuna and his family are going back to the past to unlock the Vongola Rings' true power in order to open the Vongola Boxes by overcoming the Arcobaleno Trials.
