Reborn! Vol. 15: Zero Point Breakthrough Arrives!

Tsuna is just a scaredy-cat junior high student who's no good at school or sports...until Reborn shoots him in the head and he starts life fresh with the power to solve his problems! Junior high student Tsuna is a failure at school, sports, and social life. He needs a mafia hit man mentor like he needs a hole in the head...and he's about to get both! Reborn's gun will kill you and make you stronger! BLOOD OF THE VONGOLA Tsuna finally faces Xanxus in the Ring battle! While they trade blows, Xanxus shows off the power of his Flames of Rage, the very ability possessed by the 2nd Generation boss of the Vongola. Tsuna soon discovers that Xanxus has brought a lot more to the party and is pummeled by attack after attack. Tsuna's friends, meanwhile, pass the Storm Ring around in an attempt to protect Lambo from the renewed fury of Leviathan!

Akira Amano is the author and mangaka of the shonen manga Katekyo Hitman Reborn!

Amano began in 1998 with a job at Weekly Young Magazine. She also held a job at Shueisha Publishing Co, Ltd.
In 2002, Amano participated in a contest for aspiring mangaka and was one of the lucky winners, with her comic Monkey Business published in Young Magazine.

Reborn!, Vol. 15 continues where the previous tankōbon left off and contains the next nine chapters (126–134) of the on-going manga series.

The tankōbon concludes the Varia arc. The battle for the Sky Ring starts, and both Tsunayoshi "Tsuna" Sawada and Xanxus use different flames to fight. Meanwhile, Kyōya Hibari sets the other Vongola guardians free in order for them to start facing the other Varia guardians who were freed by Xanxus.

Overpowered by Xanxus, Tsuna performs the Dying Will Zero Point Breakthrough, a technique created by the first Vongola boss that allows him to absorb all of Xanxus' flames. Tsuna once again uses the Zero Point Breakthrough to freeze Xanxus, and discovers that he has already been frozen once by the Ninth boss.

Mammon and Belphegor try to unfreeze Xanxus by giving him the Vongola Rings, but the rings reject Xanxus since he was just adopted by the Ninth, and thus does not have Vongola blood. The Varia tries to call their other companions, but they are all defeated by an unknown person.

This tankōbon is written and illustrated by Akira Amano. It concludes the Varia arc as the battle for the Vongola Rings finally concludes. The battle of the Sky Ring continues throughout the tankōbon, which pits Tsunayoshi "Tsuna" Sawada and Xanxus together. The tankōbon explores much of the back story of Xanxus and gives an intriguing cliffhanger of the person or persons unknown who has defeated the rest of the Varia.

All in all, Reborn!, Vol. 15 is a wonderful continuation to a series that seems really intriguing and I can't wait to read more.

Saw this at the library and snagged it, was feeling nostalgic. Loved this series in my high school days. The art style in the manga is light years ahead of the animation so it was cool to see Amano go all out

Reborn! is about a wimpy highschooler named Sawada Tsunayoshi, also known as Tsuna, he lives a normal life until Reborn comes. Reborn is his home tutor from Italy, he was sent from the ninth Vongola Boss to help Tsuna to be the tenth Vongola Boss because the ninth does not have much time left. Reborn teaches Tsuna in his own way, he has a special bullet, called the dying will bullet, when shot into a person the person becomes unconscious and they are given a goal to reach within that time. The reason it is called a dying will bullet is because when shot, you have 5 minutes to complete a task but you are doing it with your dying will energy, the energy you would release as if it was the last thing you were going to do in this world. Tsuna soon met friends and trained them to be a Vongola family member, because with every boss they need their assistants, but the Vongola calls them guardians, each guardian is given a ring that matches their personality. In this volume there was another Vongola tenth boss candidate, Xanxus, so they had to prove themselves worthy to the ninth to be the chosen family. Not only do the 2 bosses fight, but their guardians as well and in this volume, the guardians of lightning are up to fight.
I can connect this to real life situations. In real life, as a boss, you have to take responsibility for the people that were willing enough to serve you and you will have to suffer for their wrongs sometimes.
I rate this book 4 stars because in my opinion this is a very fun series to read and I enjoyed reading it, the pace isn't bad but the storyline can get complicated.

This vol actually started kind of slow. The beginning of Tsuna's match wasn't too exciting. Xanxuas truly is such a formidable opponent. I hate to admit it, but it looks like the Varia are by far stronger in terms of strength then Tsuna and his guardians!

Despite things starting off a bit slow, things quickly pick up with the various twists in this vol. I had no doubt that somehow Tsuna would win, cause c'mon our protagonists can't lose!! But just the sheer strength of the Varia really is overwhelming. Still, can't help, but feel they are scum! (Sorry to all varia fans!) Idk, man, Xanuxas, I honestly don't know what to think of him. He is just full of craziness and rage. He truly thinks he is fit to be the 10th Boss, but I still don't get why. Where the hell does he get his sense of entitlement?!!

wow, that was an intense volume. the battle is over a victor announced and the arc is finished. i honestly did not see a few of those twists happening especially in regards to the main vilains heritage so the final volume for the arc was refreshing in that way. also the final fight and the smaller skirmishes were interesting as well as fairly intense since they were fairly back and forth meaning it was extremely hard to predict the outcome. the villains did continue their cliched nature right till the end but not to bothered since it helped make the final showdown more interesting. overall a really good volume which acted as a nice wrap up for the arc. it will be interesting to see what happens next and where the story will go now.

First things first - I had a bit of trouble with the art in this volume. Its been pretty clear and easy-to-follow until now, but some of the sky battle fight just gets too muddled and I had a hard time keeping track of what was going on.

Perhaps because of this, the b story of the rest of the guardians was far more interesting to me. It was fun to see them all interacting in a web of aid, in a manner that was no doubt informed by their boss. Very enjoyable.

The battle is ending. Well, the battle is actually over, but the Varia doesn't quite believe that yet. They will find out soon enough. I did really like the new skill that Tsuna learning the midst of the Sky Battle. It is a pretty easy concept that I didn't really think of right away. This battle was very enjoyable to read.
