| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- if all his power is going to keep coming from bullets I'll probably wind up dropping this series fairly soon. |
| Same for me. |
 |
| Don't drop it until you get to episode 20... that's what I suggest. The anime is absolutely amazing, but they do the beginning poorly :( |

BigRyder said: I'm at Episode 6 and I wanted to ask how the story will develop the next ... let's say 10-20 Episodes? The beginning is not bad, but it's the same and I want a bit more story and so on. But Reborn ist truely cool. xD wait till episode 20... he still gets his power from bullets then but just wait and see |
Minuette said: Don't drop it until you get to episode 20... that's what I suggest. The anime is absolutely amazing, but they do the beginning poorly :( well I wound up dropping it at episode 6, but I guess I could give it another shot. it won't be the first good anime that had a truly crappy beginning (12 Kingdoms), though 20 episodes seems like an awfully long time to wait for a series to become watchable. |
| 1st episode was very good introduction and comedic Fun facts: 1. Traditional awakening method 2. Coffee break hideout 3. Tsuna amazing blocks w/ his organ LOL LOL This really bugs me when Tsuna on reborn mode he is always undressing.. |

| i can't see how you guys hate that he gets his power from the bullets.. i reckon its cool how there is more than one kind of bullet like the leg bullets, they were awesome imagine what kind of other bullets there are :O |
 |
| Loved Gokudera's intro music. :3 They missed out the biggest aspect of his character though.. :( |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| XD he sacrificed his ba**s for the team |
| So the bullets basically give the author an easy plot device for each episode since it seems they can do anything (much like Oda can give any ability from the Devil Fruit in One Piece). It's funny how they took out the part where Gakuderu lights the dynamite with cigarettes... 8| |
 |
| This episode was funnier than the last one and raised some more interest. Is the other guy always angry? Lol! |

AbaraBob said: i can't see how you guys hate that he gets his power from the bullets. I can't speak for anyone else, but I basically hate it because its not his own power. he's a worthless wimp unless someone else is there to shoot him. I can't imagine how this kind of dependence could ever turn him into a reliable leader the way Reborn says he's trying to. but even if it could, it still wouldn't be interesting to watch. btw, I dropped it again after episode 20, it never did get any better really. |
| How many white shirts has Tsuna? xD |
| I actually liked this ep much better than the 1st. I'm going to keep watching. Still don't understand why Tsuna loses his clothes when he gets hit with the dying will bullet. |
 |
| Not much to say besides I hope the fights improve |
| "The weak get washed away by the tides of fate...The strong drink it up."-Godot |
| damn man, i'm really diggin the comedic premise for this series --i reeeeally want to see Tsuna's own power though (i'm at least hoping he's got any) |
| I'm enjoyed this episode, but I really hope that we get to see some story outside of school. Also, bullets, really? That's just.. too random. And mafia? And soo much comedy? lol, doesn't sound like I enjoyed this episode at all. I just really hope it'll get better once episode 20-something comes along, like everyone says it will. |
| Reborn is the man! his hideouts are pretty cool. I think its an ok start but i defenitly hope that he will be able to learn how to use the dying will power on his own someday. He also needs an adjustable suit or something i mean its funny now that he fights in his underwear but it will probably get old soon. |
| This is so lame. I don't see why people think it's funny, it's basically a copy of episode 1 just with another setting (kendo fight ---> volleybal) and a new char introduction. It was really stupid how Gokudera became is follower, for someone as strong as him it was a humiliating, I felt sorry for him... being a minor character and having to bow for someone as pathetic as Tsuna. I do know that the real story begins at episode 20 (just wth? normal anime's are just 24/26 episodes long and this one takes thát long to begin with the plot..? xD) but this is gonna be really hard to even get till ep20 if this goes on... Sigh, I hope it'll get better cauz I've heard it's a really good anime... |
| yeah i agree with others on here. This whole power up thing through the use of various different bullets is kind of strange to me. I hope that is not the main focus for how tsuna uses his abilities through out the show. |

| -Tsuno still a loser.. -The new dude look awesome :3 Bomberman |

I wanted to see what all the fuss was about, and I got this. Really?? A MC who will become a mafia leader who is a wimp and relies on magic to do such simple tasks. And apparently it will be like this until episode 20...Can I just skip this? And what episode does chrome appear in? Because honestly that's the only reason I wanted to watch this, because of her character. Anyways I will try to at least get to episode 21ish where "it gets better". |

I would recommend to watch at leat 10 episodes to get to know the characters. I skipped 16-20 because it was getting boring... It takes a while till it get's good, episode ~40 was where I really started to like it. |
| Oh god, Hayato is just a total boss this episode with a badass personality as well. Nice. |
 |
| Buen episodio |
jacobpaige said: If all his power is going to keep coming from bullets I'll probably wind up dropping this series fairly soon. Well, this is just the beginning? He still has so many things to learn you know.. So yeah that bullets are his guides to be a boss :) Psylocybek said: How many white shirts has Tsuna? xD Lol maybe reborn could make some new uniforms |
"Signature removed"   |
jacobpaige said: if all his power is going to keep coming from bullets I'll probably wind up dropping this series fairly soon. Umm.. yeah same here... |
 |
| Average development, the pace is still horrible, I'll probably have to speed this up to actually keep my attention to the show... oh well let's see what's next. |
 |
| Pretty weird that only his underwear doesn't get ripped off during the power-up. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| Welp gonna actually try to watch this after much contemplation...seems like a long show but it’s nothing compared to One Piece lol (which I am still trying to catch up on). I’ve heard good things about the show and seen how cool it can get so I guess I’ll grit my teeth through these beginning episodes. Although I think this episode was a little better than the first. |
 |
| Hmmm... either there was some mistranslation in the subs I was watching or is Reborn just flat out lying here or something? He said Tsuna passed his "test" because he didn't need the Dying Will Bullet when he clearly shot him with it? |
