The story centers around middle school student Tsunayoshi ”Tsuna” Sawada, who finds out that he is the heir to the most powerful Mafia family, the Vongola. The current Vongola boss thus sends his most trusted member, the titular character and infant hitman, Reborn, to train the future boss. Tsuna gradually becomes a more confident person and leader, while Reborn slowly recruits members into Tsuna’s own Mafia family, which mostly includes Tsuna’s schoolmates. Though they encounter new allies in the form of other hitmen and mafiosi, they also attract attention from those who want to annihilate the future boss of the Vongola Family. Enemies such as the Kokuyo Gang, a group of Mafia criminals, and The Varia, an elite team of assassins, prove to be formidable challenges for Tsuna’s new “family”. When the story later shifts into an alternate future, nine years and ten months later, in which some of the characters are transported into, they have to adapt to a world where every Vongola member, as well as their allies, is being hunted down by a powerful rival family of that era, the Millefiore. The characters transported from the past into this future are joined by adult versions of the ones who have yet to be replaced with their younger selves.
Tsunayoshi Sawada
Main article: Tsuna Sawada
Tsunayoshi Sawada (沢田 綱吉/ツナ, Sawada Tsunayoshi?), referred to as Tsuna, is the 14-year-old central character of the series. Because of his severely low self-esteem and lack of talent in any activity, Tsuna is known as “No-Good Tsuna” at his middle school Namimori. After being informed that he is the heir to the Vongola Family, due in part to him being the great-great-great grandson of the first Vongola boss as well as the untimely deaths of the other candidates for the position, he is trained into becoming a mob-boss by the infant Vongola hitman Reborn.[8] Tsuna is often shot by Reborn with a bullet that increases his physical abilities in order for him to fulfill his regrets. That state is what gradually makes others see him in a better light. For the most part of the series, Tsuna rejects his position and wants nothing to do with the Mafia, however, due to the results of various conflicts involving himself and his friends, his own power matures and he eventually starts embracing his destiny.[9] He is voiced by Yukari Kokubun in the anime

He keeps various explosives hidden on his body and uses those explosives liberally by lighting them with a cigarette (or several) held in his mouth. Initially, he comes to Japan in order to test Tsuna’s strength, and after the latter risks his life to save Gokudera, he devotes himself entirely to Tsuna, having sworn to become his right-hand man. A hot-headed and short-tempered youth, he continuously gets into fights with several of the other characters, especially to those who try to get too close to Tsuna. Despite his personality, he is considered to be a genius, excelling in his academic studies.[11] He is voiced by Hidekazu Ichinose in the anime.

After Tsuna reassures him, the two become close friends, and Reborn tries to recruit him into the Vongola Family.[13] He hardly takes anything seriously, and is usually oblivious to what is truly happening around him, often tricked by Reborn into participating in Mafia-related events because he thinks that they are all just playing a game.[14] Though he becomes a dedicated and valuable member of Tsuna’s family, growing to become a fighter who excels at swordsmanship, he still does not understand the full extent of the situation surrounding the Mafia.[15] He is voiced by Suguru Inoue in the anime

Despite being a hitman, he lacks the emotional maturity and discipline that Reborn has and is also very conceited as well as being a crybaby. In order to prove that he is worthy of becoming his own family’s boss, he comes to Japan to kill Reborn, though he only proves that he is no match for the Vongola hitman. His main choice of weapons are hand grenades, and his future dream is to rule the world. He also possesses his family’s Ten-Year Bazooka, which replaces his present self with another version of himself ten years into the future.

However, students are not the only ones who fear him, teachers and other town residents know of him as well since he enforces his form of order throughout the entire town. He prefers to be alone, usually beating up those who crowd near him. Despite caring little about the events surrounding Tsuna and his friends, Hibari takes a great interest in Reborn after seeing his abilities, which is reciprocated by Reborn, who wants to recruit him as part of Tsuna’s own family.[22] He is voiced by Takashi Kondo in the anime

Reborn (リボーン, Ribōn?) is the holder of the Yellow pacifier of the Sun. 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 Mafia boss.[8] 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,[55] though he is allowed to defend against attacks directed solely at him.[56] His “partner” is a shape-shifting chameleon named Leon (レオン, Reon?), 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. When Leon shape-shifts into a gun, a move Reborn uses is called Chaos Shot, which is a shot that branches off with the sun dying will flame.[57] After Leon creates special items for the student, he returns to normal.[58]
No matter how strong the emotion, Reborn always keeps a straight face and handles many situations as calmly as possible.[59] 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 and Dino recognizes, and seems to see nothing unusual in any of his own behavior.[60][61]
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,[51] the past’s Reborn remains in Vongola’s underground base and wears a special suit.[62] He is normally voiced by Neeko in the anime but in his short appearances as an adult, Ken Narita voices him.[63][64] Born at 13 october 19**
