Katekyo Hitman Reborn/Characters/The Arcobaleno


This is a listing of the Arcobaleno of Katekyo Hitman Reborn. YMMV items and subjectives go in the YMMV page for the series. For the main character sheet see here.

Reborn

The entire series is named after him, so Reborn must be important, right? Mhm. He's a famous infant home tutor who's trained and whipped useless kids like Dino and Tsuna into becoming suitable bosses for their families. Wait. How can an infant be the greatest hitman in the entire world? He's really an Arcobaleno, which also means he's used to be an adult before he was (unfortunately or not), Cursed with Awesome. He gets off on making flawless headshots and threatening people with his trusty gun- or with his shapeshifting pet, Leon - depending on if you read the manga or watch the anime. Unlike the other males of the series who aren't already married, Reborn actually has women falling for him. He was the object of an Accidental Marriage. And he's a baby.

Fon

An Arcobaleno from China, Fon is usually seen in the anime in the form of I-Pin's stuffed version of him. He is her master, after all. His appearance also explains her deep crush for Hibari: Fon and Hibari are virtually twins... Well, at least when Fon was an adult. The only difference would be that the holder of the red pacifier actually smiles, and has a long braid. One thing they do have in common that's not looks is that they both have cute pets.

In Haru Haru Interview 28, Volume 31, Fon heavily implies, if not outright confirms, that he and Hibari are related somehow. However, he stops himself from saying anything further as Hibari 'might get angry'. (Although Fon does confirm that the two are not brothers, at the very least)

Luche

She's The Nice Hat Chick of the Arcobaleno, and also The Boss a.k.a holder of the Orange Pacifier. Unlike the rest of her colleagues, with their ridiculous life-spans, Luche is not one for a long life, a trait that she passed on to her progeny. Oh, and she didn't just pass on that. She passed on the ability to see into the future, and the title of Arcobaleno leader, which leads to that short lifespan! Isn't that just great? Her poor children also inherit her memories as well! At any rate, she did seem to have an interesting relationship with bad boy Reborn. Of course, All Girls Want Bad Boys.

Verde

The last Arcobaleno to be seen in the manga. According to the mangaka's drawings and mentions by the other Arcobaleno, Verde's one Hot Scientist with a Perma-Stubble - When he's an adult, that is. He's a very Smart Guy who helped create box weapons and invented the invisibility device that the assassins Mukuro sent after Tsuna used. He, of course, made it so toddlers could see through it, cause he wouldn't want his subordinates to use it against him.

Colonnello

The Arcobaleno who has the blue pacifier, Colonnello used to be apart of the COMBUSIN corps back when he was an adult, before he was Cursed with Awesome. He has a fetish for anti-tank weapons, and is sometimes flown around by his pet falcon, Falco. He seems to have a very big rivalry with the other Arcobaleno Reborn, always debating on which weapons are better than others, and who's the harshest tutor. He's also quite firey, just like his one notable pupil, Ryohei. Though... what's really rare in this series is seen in Colonnello. Fans would actually rather pair him up with a female character, who happens to be the series' Arcobaleno reject.

Viper (Mammon)

He embodied the sin of greed when he was with the Big Bad, concerned only with his money, even if he has the appearance of a baby. He's a Master of Illusion, king of Naughty Tentacles. He used to work with the Varia until he got owned by Mukuro and tried to flee for his life. The Arcobaleno is constantly mistaken for a girl by the fans due to his ambiguous baby voice and ever-present hood over his head. Even as an adult, fans can't tell.

Skull

Skull is the youngest of the Arcobaleno, constantly calling the other kids his senpai. He's also a case of Curtains Match the Window, y'know, with his purple hair and lilac eyes. That'd be if he'd ever take off that biker helmet in his baby form. His actions from when he did apear in the series has earned him the title of woobie, after being humiliated by Reborn and Colonello. His appearance and expressions in his adult form (ex: decorative bandages, snake bites, chains, guyliner, leather clothes) has had people fangasming.

  • Armor Is Useless: On closer inspection, besides leather, he seems to be wearing some body armor.
  • Bishounen
    • Lampshaded by himself in chapter 353.

The real me is a total pretty-boy hottie!

And

Before I was cursed, I was over seven heads tall!

A-are you wearing makeup?

Lal Mirch

Not only is Lal Mirch a rare Action Girl in this Cast Full of Pretty Boys, she's also a member of the outside advisors of the Vongola, an ex-trainer of the CEDEF and a failed Arcobaleno (with scars to show for it) as well. Having a Incurable Cough of Death hasn't stop her from dishing out large doses of violence as the trainer of Tsuna and others in the future though evidence seems to suggest that she's in fact a Tsundere. Had a relationship with former student Colonello who has inherited her training maxim and took her place as an Arcobaleno.

Bermuda Von Vichtenstein

A mysterious Arcobaleno who is also a member of Vindice. He possesses a clear pacifier and was apparently the strongest Arcobaleno in the past.

Vindice

Wardens of the Vendicare Prison. They guard the worst prisoners of the Mafia world and capture anyone who breaks their laws. They are revealed to have been former Arcobaleno who survived the removal of their pacifiers.

Checker Face

The mysterious man who gathers the Seven Strongest in the world in order to protect the cursed pacifiers by turning them into the Arcobaleno. He appears before the current Arcobaleno to offer them a chance to become human once again in a Representative War. But it's actually a lie. He plans on gathering a new group of the Seven Strongest to take on the curse and protect the Pacifiers.
