REBORN!

The plot is interesting, the characters are interesting, and it certainly keeps you on your toes; however, if you're looking for something where the main character is boss status 24/7 this is not the anime for you. I give it a 4/5 simply because it takes so long for the main character to do something... Yes, character development is important, but they totally killed my desire to watch this after all those episodes of sheer nonsense. (I've stopped watching just after a little more than 100 episodes.)

This Anime is much worth watching. If you are thinking that 200 episodes is gonna take too long, i guarantee you that it won't. To add mathematics into the problem and calculate a simple solution. Roughly 20 minutes an episode, pre-subtracted from open and closing, multiplied by 200 equals roughly 66.7 hours of the full series, or about 2.8 days of straight watch through. If you want to get really picky, add 3 more episodes for an extra hour. So if your like me and are just kicking back at home / apartment / mansion / mafia base, here is a conversion, with an average humans needed 9 hours of sleep. Day 1 start the episodes: the first day you would be able to finish roughly 45 episodes given that 3 episodes equal 1 hours with 15 hour of watching total and 9 sleep total of a 24 hour day. Wrapping everything up....

Anime: 203 episodes. 20 minutes each. 67.7 hours of series. 2.82 days of a straight shot.
Given with 9 hours of sleep, with no schedule intended: 20 minutes per episode. 3 Episodes an Hour. 45 episodes a day. Roughly 4.5 days in total.

Reason for simplifying: This Anime is much worth your time. I enjoyed it and thought others should be given the benefit to be thrilled. Some parts i laughed other cried, really was a great experience, by combining a Mafia subject, with a Loser protagonist, that over comes powerful enemies. Along with some superhuman power that is only amplified by the power from inside the person wielding it. The bigger the will the more power! REBORN!

HEY!!! welcome back to another Doki Doki review!

The topic for today is REBORN!!

it fun show and amazing anime it longer than any anime it holds eight season!
My favorite episode is Happy? Wedding!!! it episode 68 and it crazy and funny episode to me! It about Bianchi she propose to Reborn and Reborn says yes while sleeping he didnt mean it and Reborn ran away ( not him he never run away) Dino and Tsuna-san had to keep the wedding going without Binachi knowing that real Reborn is not there!!!

I believe this series is a very good one so far, since I have not finished watching this series, yet. At first the plot line progresses slowly with the usual comedy that'll make you laugh if you find it funny. Afterwards there are a few battles that are quite interesting to watch, but I won't go into detail if you haven't watched it yet, but if you have I'm sure you know what happens. I recommend watching this series to anyone really because I think this series has a good plot line and characters that make this series fun to watch.

idea
Tsuna Sawada, a loser (that's what they call him), found himself in an odd situation—he is the next heir to a group of mafia called Vongola family. Reborn (The baby in a black mafia attire) was handed the responsibility to train Tsuna.

Strenght
Reborn!'s action can be describe as exciting and bad-ass. Its action applies combat strategy and involves fictional physics regarding how powers work in the world of Reborn! The powers are also quite creative because of its mafia-based theme. Although the powers are unrealistic, it fits right home with Reborn!

The protagonist is a real bad-ass when he finally develops his power later on the series. In fact, you will want to avoid blinking when Tsuna is on fire (literally). It just get's better when his theme music "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DawIbXJ4W6s" plays while he is in his bad-ass mode.

Weakness
The comedy and drama of Reborn! are its weakest link. Do people still laugh at jokes about people slipping on stairs? In my analysis, the anime is to blame, as jokes are more about timing and execution than the joke itself. E.g. If you give the same joke to different people, some can deliver it really funny. Unfortunately, the anime fails on timing and executing most of the joke of Reborn!. I won't be surprise if you skip straight to arcs where its focus is on action than comedy.

Episode 20 is where the good stuff begins. I watched 1-19 because I thought "just in case." I regretted that decision because those episodes were very painful to watch. The good thing, The next arc after that, Episode 34, is the arc where you will regret calling Tsuna a "wimp" and a "lame" character as he is definitely a bad-ass boss.

Speaking of lame, Tsuna is lame at the beginning of the series. He is a coward who just want to run at every bad situation. It will get to a point where he's annoying more than being a comedic relief. You could either bare with it or jump straight to arcs depending on how much patience you have.

Who is it for?
If you are looking for great action that involves strategical concept applied to it, Reborn! has it. If you like bad-ass protagonist, Reborn! has it. Although, you have to dig in 50 freaking episode to get to that point where Tsuna finally master his powers. Don't expect laugh out loud comedy where you will be choking on your food nor expect drama that will make you reflect on life. The comedy of Reborn! is more of a cutesy-type-that-makes-you-smile-of-a-comedy. It's hard to care for its drama either.
