KHR: [Character] Tsunayoshi Sawada

[SoulWolf]

http://media.animevice.com/uploads/0/290/7315-tsuna_2_large.jpg

Tsunayoshi "Tsuna" Sawada is the protagonist of the series. Although at first a cowardly and useless junior high student, Tsuna is suddenly thrust into the role of the tenth generation boss of the Vongola Famiglia, the most prominent mafia family in the underground, forcing him to gather his own family to eventually battle for the survival of the world.

Although he himself does not wish to have anything to do with the mafia, he nevertheless finds himself thrust into numerous battles, so far involving escaped mafia exiles, a rival group of elite assassins within the Vongola, and, eventually, 10 years in the future, the Millefiore Family, a rival family in the process of eliminating the Vongola.

Tsuna's personality has developed greatly since the beginning of the manga, where he was a cowardly, useless individual who easily gave up, to an individual of great resolve to protect the companions he has made, doing whatever must be done. Later he is depicted as comfortable with leadership, as the others in his family look to him for decisions which he dispenses without hesitation.

There have been many parallels between Tsuna and the first boss and founder of the Vongola family, Giotto, including physical appearance, fighting technique, and weapons used. Both of their personalities are likely to be very similar as it has been shown that they have similar goals and ways of standards. For example, neither had problems with appointing Guardians from outside the family.

[death2boredom]

I seriously want to see a relative of Tsuna's from his mother's side of the family. Something like an older cousin male and/or female that has always looked down on him but then sees him in a new light. It cliche but I really wanna see it.

[yoninik]

wow tsuna has his own thread now. good for him.

[sukidayoanime!6]

as you see, in the anime, tsuna seems to have his own will even he does not have his hyper dying:thumbup: although he need it to battle but i see every episode\chapter, he develop his confidence and will. thank reborn and friends for all of that.

[Detharos]

Not sure whether or not this theory has been said before, but its possible Tsuna possesses the same ability as Byakuran. Seeing as how he often knows things but has no idea how he knows them, its possible that the ability itself is the origin of "hyper intuition".

[gamer1973]

what "things" he knows?

hyper intuition is the result of concentration of a clear mind with the effects of harmony from the Sky dying will flame being able to detect a pattern which most Living beings has and not nonliving stuff(machines)

the origin is probably when the Vongola Primo was able to Transfer the dying will in a form of a bullet. And the release of the Dying will mode activates the attribute.The Clear Sky=Harmony which makes the hyper intuition with the Vongola Successors

[Detharos]

For instance, when Irie states that the true enemy is Byakuran, and Tsuna responds "I knew it!.. somehow, I knew it!". Also further logic: Currently, there are 3 different leaders of 3 groups that each control a third of the 7^3. [Tsuna with the Vongola family/Vongola rings, Byakuran with the Millfiore family/ Mare rings, and the arcobaleno[not really a mafia like the others per se] with the arcobaleno pacifiers. Currently, the mare ring respective leader, Byakuran has the ability of sharing knowledge from the parallel worlds, Uni, the respective leader/boss of the arcobaleno claims to now also possess the same ability, and then there's Tsuna, leader of the Vongola. If both Byakuran and Uni possess the parallel world knowledge ability, then it doesn't seem to logical to conclude that Tsuna may also gain that ability.

[gamer1973]

pretty much, he either said that of fear/denial of any conflicts with the Millifiore or your theory and such

[losthero15]

Well I also thought that hyper intuition is a much weaker version of byakuran's ability until this week's chapter. It seems that Byakuran must do some kind of ritual to connect with his other selves unlike Tsuna who just suddenly knows due to his intuition.

[DaEvilWithin]

I am guessing that the Sky attribute harmonizes all the parallel worlds thus giving knowledge to the owner. Also, I would think that it only applies to the purest of Sky flames, which the people who hold the Tri-Ni-Sette should have.

[death2boredom]

^Furthermore it seems to be biological for the most part.

[Hana Yuri]

Lol Soul <3

I don't know what to say looking at these posts so I'll base my opinions on Tsuna ..

Tsuna really pissed me off at first. Neglecting his duties, being a real pussy. But you know, I understand that guy a lot. He is really pulling through and "being a man" about all of this. And psh, Tsuna comes with Nuts (NO, NOT THAT .. ) ..

[Pepsidog]

Tsuna is probably one of my favourite protagonists. Something about his personality just clicks with me. I think it might be the expression he gets in his Hyper dying will mode, perpetual frown ftw.

[Hana Yuri]

Dude, did you see Tsuna in the latest chapter? So serious. So different. Character development is so visible for me.

[TheAviator]

Yea all the characters in this manga have changed throughout, thats what makes it cool. And i also like the fact that they didnt have much strength to begin with, not like other manga were the main characters starts out as the strongest character until like chapter 30 where he meets someone stronger

[Lucis]

Although Tsuna has indeed improved I still dislike his character a lot. He's too soft for me.

[TheAviator]

Although Tsuna has indeed improved I still dislike his character a lot. He's too soft for me.

Lately he has been surprising me with his growth though, to the point were it seems he has turned into a whole new person.

He seems to be getting very serious about things lately, and that has made him look really cool xD

[Pepsidog]

Although Tsuna has indeed improved I still dislike his character a lot. He's too soft for me.

No way, I think they've found a good balance with his personality between being kind and doing what has to be done.

Now Negima, THAT'S too soft, like seriously.

[Ledah]

got to admit tsuna is starting to act more as a leader and starts to take action more..
but even though i say that he still has to show more even when he is not in dying will mode....

[~Chi-u_Chi-u~]

i dont think that Tsuna is soft at all, he know when he must to be soft and when he ust to be cruel and be serious like in the battle, so i think that Tsuna know his roles that what he must do in the different situation

[Ledah]

well i guess...since he does calm the girls and tries to make the experience for them less painfull to see and all......so i guess his soft character is well needed

[losthero15]

I think Tsuna's personality fits the series perfectly since it is all about how a weak pathetic person can be reborn and become someone truely heroic if given the chance to be. All he needed was a push (or a kick to the face) in the right direction. Would the series still be good if someone like xanxus was the main character? Yes but I think starting of with a loser like Tsuna is one of the manga's strengths

[Ledah]

that is true....seeing the growth of a normal weak student all of a sudden turn into a great mafia leader is a good story lol even if he didnt want to at the beggining lol it was due to peer pressure lol

[jojs123]

Tsuna's character is wot drew mi to this manga, unlike the main characters of the Shonen Jump Big THree, who strive to be the best, this manga shows a character who isnt the best nd noes this, but despite all odds will fight to protyect things he cares about

[Ledah]

hahaha thats so true.....hes just that awsome that he changes when the time is right Xp
he hides his potential i guess lol

[Vizardsavior]

All I can say is that no good tsuna became a bad*** thanks to reborn and leon.

[Hana Yuri]

And thanks to everyone. I think slowly he accepted that fact by being the boss. With his friends in danger at times, he should man up and gratefully he did. :]

[Harlan Phoenix]

Would the series still be good if someone like xanxus was the main character?

No.

[TheAviator]

No.

I fully support that.

Nearly all the filler episodes would not make any sense, instead of training he would be amazing to begin with, there would be no need for mafialand (Gasp!), they would lose an entire arc, it would be really weird having the varia as students in school, and theyd break everything.

The list goes on.... and on.... and on

That would be so freaking awesome. I can imagine Squalo yelling "YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" as he smashed through everything and Viper as the tyrant of the kindergarten.

[losthero15]

Uni 's comment in the new chapter about how Tsuna and Byakuran are similar really adds some evidence to the theory that Tsuna has an all knowing ability like Byakuran's (besides hyper intuition) Maybe TYL Tsuna 's power was weakening as well.

Or hyper intuition IS Byakuran's power.

[losthero15]

It could be that the cross dimention knowledge is just an upgraded version of hyper intuition, but I think that there maybe some kind of physic ability that all sky users have instead of an ability for just the Vongola bloodline.

Out of the 4 sky users shown so far, 3 have displayed an ability to see into the future. Uni said so herself in the new chapter and Byakuran through his united minds. Dino showed his by telling Hibari how to fight with rings in the past before boxes were invented. Tsuna's intuition is good at analizing his opponents but has not reached that level quite yet. It seems to have to do with the harmony trait of sky flames. Since Tsuna is still learning to control his flame he cant do this yet but I think Uni will give him a push in the right direction. So I think Tsuna will combine this ability with his intuition to have a power to match Byakuran's

[Pepsidog]

The 4 sky users being Uni, Tsuna, Byakuran, Xanxus and Dino?

Oh wait....

Harmonizing trait does sound like it has something to do with the ability.

[cuhwism]

it could be
since sky attribute is said to be definitely rare
only the boss of a family had it
except xanxus
but, he is a boss as well..

[~Chi-u_Chi-u~]

well, i think that Xanxus still be boss but he doesnt be official one but in practical ways he is
so he might be the one that will get sky one

[losthero15]

Oh I totally forgot about Xanxus. Small hole in the theory.

However Xanxus does not seem to be to interested in developing his harmony trait. He is more of a destruction kind of fighter.

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

wait. I thought Xanxus also possess hyper Intuition as well.

[losthero15]

Nope hyper intuition is an ability of the Vongola bloodline. Xanxus was adopted by the 9th so he does not have the right genes for it

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

I see. so it is a misunderstanding here

http://www.onemanga.com/Katekyo_Hitman_Reborn/91/03/

[losthero15]

I think Tsuna's dad was just asuming that Xanxus had the intuition since the 9th did not tell anyone Xanxus was adopted

[TheAviator]

I think that is just him being smart, nothing to do with a bloodline, normal people can have high intuition too, just not hyper intuition

[Gilphon]

I think that is just him being smart, nothing to do with a bloodline, normal people can have high intuition too, just not hyper intuition

You are mistaken: http://www.onemanga.com/Katekyo_Hitman_Reborn/79/06/
Hyper intuition is absolutely connected to the Vongola bloodline. Though personally I believe it's also a function of Sky flame, since flame types seems to be hereditary. So it certainly wouldn't be too strange for Xanxus to have some kind of precognitive ability, since he did see through the fake Vongola rings very easily.

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

So Xanxus inhert hyper intuition from maybe the Second Vongolia boss. But did not inherit the vongolia blood? lol. who know maybe the Varia are similar to the second Vongolia guardians much like how the decimo vongolia guardians are similar to the Primo's

[MdNGhT]

Hmm maybe it's going to become a cycle of sorts?

[bludvein]

I am guessing that the Sky attribute harmonizes all the parallel worlds thus giving knowledge to the owner. Also, I would think that it only applies to the purest of Sky flames, which the people who hold the Tri-Ni-Sette should have.

The problem with that theory is that Byakuran was able to conect to his parallel selves long before he posessed a mare ring. He was nothing but a normal person when Irie awakened his ability.

[losthero15]

Found more evidence of the sky flame's all knowing ability. During the Mist guardian battle, Tsuna seemed to be able to see Mukuro who was in prision (http://www.onemanga.com/Katekyo_Hitman_Reborn/116/20/) and Mukuro, Ken and Chiska's escape from prision which had already happened (http://www.onemanga.com/Katekyo_Hitman_Reborn/116/21/)
How could he have known this if he did not have some kind of ability that "harmonized" Mukuro's mind with his?

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

yeah I agree, the sky flame seem to be connection to other things. but then wha about Dino? he is the only one with sky flame that did not show any connection ability

[losthero15]

When Hibari first came to the future, he already knew how to create dying will flames. The Dino from the past taught him how. There is no way he could have known the fighting style of the future.

[bludvein]

Even if Dino possessed the parallel world ability, he wouldnt of been able to know the future. The answer is simple, and Genkishi already said it, and that is that the ring's flame were discovered about 10 years ago. Dino is just well informed.

Oh, and another thing, if Dino could see the future, why wouldnt he have mentioned the box weapons also?

[losthero15]

Good point. They only thing that makes me think that he has some kind of foresight is that he only taught Hibari how to create flames. If he knew the Vongola Rings had such power, why only tell the guardian who would be most likely to abuse it? I think he knew that Hibari would not have time to train and would need to hit the ground running.

1. Dino was his home tutor, that's why.

2. I see no reason why Hibari would abuse the power of a Vongola Ring.

[losthero15]

He would use its power to just destroy random people who piss him off. If that is not abusing it I do not know what is.

[VorgX]

He would use its power to just destroy random people who piss him off. If that is not abusing it I do not know what is.

Hibari: Why are you at the school at these hours!
Student: I left some books?!?!!?
Hibari: Die!!!
*Hedgehog to face*

[Harlan Phoenix]

He would use its power to just destroy random people who piss him off. If that is not abusing it I do not know what is.

Except one of Hibari's ONLY character traits is his wanting to fight people who either would provide a challenge for him (and given how ridiculously powerful Hibari tends to be, that's few people) OR those who threaten Namimori.

There aren't any instances of Hibari fighting or harming people simply because of some insatiable rage that doesn't exist.

Hibari beat the Kokuyo Gang grunts near the beginning of the Kokuyo Arc because, surprise, they were ****ing around in Namimori.

Hibari went wild against the Varia (particularly Xanxus)...not because he's a random assailant, but because Xanxus seemed a more worthy opponent than Gole Mosca. If anything, he probably felt defeating his opponent warranted some sort of advancement to the next adversary (as he respected the rules of the Ring Conflict when Yamamoto talked him out of fighting Belphegor).

Similarly, he respected the rules of Choice because it promised powerful opponents would come his way if he didn't break its rules...not because the end of Choice would allow him to go on a rampage against people who just irritate him.

He fought Genkishi because he harmed a Namimori student.

He killed Daisy because of the threat to Namimori.

He raised his tonfa to Tsuna and others...because they were perceived as threads to Namimori Middle.

Hell, maybe the one genuine time he hurt somebody for little reason (Kusakabe at the beginning of the Arcobaleno Trials)...it wasn't even that hard of a hit. The only damage he dealt out of genuine irritation over an individual above nothing else amounted to just a slightly wounded chin.

Hibari wouldn't abuse any power to harm people. I doubt he'd ever exert more force than necessary to keep Namimori safe, and him going full power over worthy opponents couldn't qualify as abuse.

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

He would use its power to just destroy random people who piss him off. If that is not abusing it I do not know what is.

I doubt he will abuse his power over herbivore like Tsuna in the beginning. Never have we seen him go all out over trival stuff. againist people he deem as weak, Hibari always injure them badly. but he never abuse them

[Kame D. Kaze]

Tsuna looks so cool when he enters his dying will mode. He looks cooler than all the other KHR characters. But than he has to turn back and be all whiny and stuff. I hate it. Why can't he stay in his dying will form all the time.

Because otherwise he'd be a shitty character, most likely.

[bludvein]

Compared to the beginning, Tsuna has gained alot more confidence. Although he still is somewhat whiny, the character development is good to see. A permanent dying will mode would ruin his personality.

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

that is no good then. his character will be like so plain.

------------------------------------------------

like this. no up or down moment. = not cool.

I dun like Gary stu character

[Nekron]

Here's my theory for the Hyper Intuition:
The Sky Tre-Ni-Sette wielders can harmonize with minds. This is a requirement to be abe to fully use the rings, not something gifted by doing so. Xanxus's rejection by the rings shows that, not to mention that Tsuna and Byakuran both definitely had the power before getting the ring. It's safe to assume the Sky Arcobalenos were the same way.

Here's the kicker: each of them harmonizes with different minds. Byakuran harmonizes with himself across dimensions, Uni with herself and possibly other people across time, and Tsuna can harmonize with anyone, but hasn't fully developed that power yet.

This will be Tsuna's cliche power-up: mastering the Hyper Intuition.

Makes sense to me. I think Tsuna's power would be similar to Uni's though since he had a dream that told him about Irie's machine, kind of like her prophetic dreams.

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

oh yeah. i forgot about that. now thinking about it, Mukuro only intend to tell it to Chrome. but Tsuna seem to get to know it. dream intercept dream. that some way to get information

[Vongola Decimo]

It would be cool if Akira Amano would make a filler arc about the First' Family of the Vongola.

Or rather combine all the Vongola boxes to create the most powerful Vongola Box to defeat Byakuran.

Or maybe have other forms other than Normal and Defense form. I wish they have Attack, Speed forms.

[Mibu Kyoshiro]

hey talking about combining, how about Tsuna use his flame to open all seven boxes. sure beside the sky vongolia box, the other box are not at full power. but we might see the cambio they become. the ultimate sky weapon

[losthero15]

I don't see Tsuna using all of the guardian's boxes. That is what the brain coating on Basil's box is for, a combined super attack. What I could see happening is all of the guardians letting Tsuna use zero point breakthrough custom to absorb all of their flame power so he can fight Byakuran

[Pepsidog]

What I could see happening is all of the guardians letting Tsuna use zero point breakthrough custom to absorb all of their flame power so he can fight Byakuran

Oh god, a 'We're all in this together!'/'That's right, I'm not alone!' scenario. Hopefully we'll see a bit more originality then that.

[kitsune09]

It is a classic for a manga that has this "leaders" and "friends". It something like a flashback thing is some like a power up...

Is your post arguing against mine or agreeing with me?

Because if it's meant as a counter-argument, I love how you used the word 'classic', when I'm talking about 'unoriginality'. Just because the word is euphemistic doesn't mean it's semantically different.

Yup i really use the word classic because i agree with you that this kind of theme has this "classic" it is staple in manga that has this leader and friends thingy... :) but still it depends how the writer's will project this unoriginal but classic plot line ^^,

[cherryblossam]

Tsuna is one of my favorite characters in KHR. His personality is so adorable. He is adorable. I am normally a sucker for guys like Tsuna. The cute, worthless, guys. Especially guys who were worthless, and then turned out to so darn cool, later on the chapters. I would give him a 9.

[Shin_Asuka]

At first,I don't like this character......but then,when he fought mukuro......He's awesome!

[losthero15]

I have a feeling that Tsuna is going to have a tough choice ahead of him.

From what I can tell, Byakuran sent Ghost to attack the Guardians because he is absolutely sure Ghost will not lose. But if he is so strong, why not just send Ghost to capture Uni? If he was sent directly to Uni, there would be a struggle and she could be killed.

However, if Ghost is about to defeat the Guardians, Tsuna will have a choice. He could:
1) Stay with Uni and protect the pacifiers, saving the future but losing everyone he was fighting to protect OR
2) Leave Uni, the girl he just met, to go and save his beloved family

If Tsuna choses the second option, when Byakuran recovers he could capture Uni more more easily with much less risk of her dying.

Why not both?

[Harlan Phoenix]

I also think he's belittling Uni.

The "girl he just met" also happens to be a near omnipotent empath who's the key to defeating Byakuran. DERP.

True, but when has any girl in Reborn really done anything? (I'm looking at you Chrome)

[Kodiac]

Im sure reborn would protect Uni, Tsuna might leave her with him.

[Gilphon]

True, but when has any girl in Reborn really done anything? (I'm looking at you Chrome)

You seem to have forgotten Lal. Though it is true that she did very little against Zakuro. Well, there's also Bluebell.

[losthero15]

Im sure reborn would protect Uni, Tsuna might leave her with him.
Good point. That is a fight I would like to see, Reborn vs. Byakuran

[losthero15]

Nailed it! Looks like it will be Reborn vs Byakuran after all.

[DecimoAmante]

I love this character! :<3:

I just love how much he has grown since the start. He's reliably and he gets cuter each chapter.

[gamer1973]

Did you know in Tsunayoshi, 'yoshi' means luck?

[munozjesse97]

I thought "yoshi" meant star? It would make more sense if it meant "luck" than "star". Wait, both would make sence since Tsuna is the "star" of the manga! Man that was such a lame joke... Anyway, with the whole harmonization thing of the sky attribute being connected to his hyper intuition and his bloodline would make perfect sense. I can also see how seeing "seeing in to the future" would be his hyper intuition evolving. Just look how the Vongola base was prepared when they arrived into the future. Either 25 yr. old Tsuna is really cautious or he does have that sort of ability. Either way from what has been described in the manga about 25 yr. old Tsuna, he sounds awesome.

The Kanji for 'yoshi' does indeed mean 'lucky' or 'blessed', the word for star you're probably thinking of is 'hoshi'. A bit of added trivia, 'Tsuna' means 'rope', which is a bit interesting, a rope being something that binds things together. Pretty fitting for one with the sky attribute.

[animenga]

I thought Tsuna's hyper intituition is like-higher thinking skills? Gets into deeper thought than others and can see through illusions or sth. But, maybe it's true that he can see the future.

But he's still HOT... XD

So his name means Lucky Rope? What does his last name mean? I do know that Hibari Kyoya means something. I believe Hibari means skylark and Kyoya means cloud or something or it is the other way around. But names in both life and in manga/anime do hold some amount of actual meaning pertaining to the person.

I am fairly certain that 'Sawada' has no meaning, and is simply a surname. Hibari does mean 'skylark' and Kyoya, again, doesn't mean anything.

[gamer1973]

Strangely, Hibari, Gokudera, and Yamamoto are being called by their Surname(family name)...
So their personal names are really Kyoya, Hayato, and Takeshi
:P

[cuhwism]

sawada somehow is a name that was used pretty often in japanese manga
it seems that it's a historical name or something

[Nekron]

Would you call Hibari by his first name? He might be listening.:skull:

[slimtimlim]

He only mans up when he enters dying will mode. I mean it's been a pretty long time since he was introduced to the Mafia idea. He's stuck ten years in the future, and he still doesn't want to accept that he's destined to be the Vongola Boss? He should just suck it up and accept it for what it is.

[Harlan Phoenix]

He only mans up when he enters dying will mode..

He manned up to Xanxus without being in Dying Will Mode.
