- Katekyou Hitman REBORN! Gen/No Pairing Fanfiction Recs - When I started with the REBORN! fandom, I just dumped all the fic into one section, I honestly thought it was going to be a small fandom that I would only get a decent amount of recs for if I read a whole bunch of crazy pairings. But then people actually started writing a lot of really good stuff and maybe I do like those pairings a lot, but there's character insight fic or gen friendships and I'm having fun reading those, too, because I genuinely like these characters. It delights me that the fandom seems to be growing at an exponential rate! |
- Katekyou Hitman REBORN! Dino/Hibari Fanfiction Recs - [ page one - page two ] - Though. Well. Honestly. As much as I came to love the series for the characters and instantly loved it for the humor, I did fall pretty hard for Dino/Hibari as one of those die-hard pairings. I didn't expect to like it that much, but they had an amazing sort of chemsistry in my eyes, the kind where I half expected this to turn into a BL manga at any moment and have them make out because that's what the tension between them felt like for me. It didn't help that Dino immediately called Hibari by his given name (and Hibari didn't seem to object all that much...?) and eventually wrangled some respect out of Hibari, in his own way. That, plus there's some really awesome fic for them. |
- Katekyou Hitman REBORN! Mukuro/Hibari Fanfiction Recs - The first time I read the Koukuyou arc in the manga, I never really thought much about this potential pairing. I was still trying to figure Hibari out as a character on his own, much less with other people, so I wasn't shipping him with anyone just yet. And when I saw that people were writing it, I was sort of "...." over the idea because I had another pairing developing and it would basically have to be non-con, wouldn't it? But then I read some fics and... it is often non-con (or more like dub-con, I suppose) but that's the point, that they are two vicious people and watching them fight is really kind of, um, hot. |
- Katekyou Hitman REBORN! Tsuna/Gokudera Fanfiction Recs - Tsuna/Gokudera was actually the first pairing that jumped out at me, which was kind of difficult for it not to, because Gokudera practically lights up, glows, and follows Tsuna around like a puppy. ♥ It's not as popular in fandom as I wish it were, (and, admittedly, I did get distracted by some of the other characters, despite that I do still love this pairing tons!) but there's a handful of really good fic for it and I plan to continue to look for more of it. Given that Gokudera doesn't seem to be showing any signs of slowing down in his worship of Tsuna, hopefully it'll attract more authors. ♥ |
- Katekyou Hitman REBORN! Other Pairings Fanfiction Recs - There are a lot of pairings that I have a massive fondness for in the REBORN! fandom that just don't quite have enough fics to justify their own sections, but that I will continue to look for more and more of. I really do read just about anything in the fandom, the fandom is kind of amazing at making people laid-back enough to ship whatever and not get into fights about it, so it'll be quite an ecclectic selection. I really like Lambo/I-Pin, Xanxus/Squalo, Xanxus/Tsuna, Mukuro/Tsuna, Ryohei/Hibari, Yamamoto/Hibari, Hibari/I-Pin (I think maybe you're detecting a pattern at this point), and more as they crop up in fandom. ♥ |

- Katekyou Hitman REBORN! Gen/No Pairings Fanart Recs - [ page one - page two - page three - page four ] - A lot of times there are some pairings on a site, but more than half of the images are stand-alone or the pairings could maybe only potentially imply pairings. There are a lot of sites like that that I think gen fans might enjoy as well, so they get put into this catagory. But there are also sites that aren't about pairings, that are about group antics or kickass stand-alone character art. So I hope that this section will actually be fairly large. ♥ Especially so since I genuinely like the characters for themselves, rather than just the pairings that they could potentially present. |
- Katekyou Hitman REBORN! Tsuna/Gokudera Fanart Recs - [ page one - page two ] - This is the first pairing in the series that jumped out at me... well, no. Tsuna/Kyouko was the first to jump out at me and I thought that was really cute. But then Gokudera came along and it wasn't just that he fanboyed Tsuna, but all the emotional weight of his storylines were revolving around Tsuna. And I like Gokudera, so I naturally took note of these two. And it's something that I could really sort of see working, aside from Tsuna's pesky crush on a girl of all things. ^_~ I haven't delved that deeply into the art for them yet, but I'm slowly amassing art links and one day this section will totally be huge. ♥ |
- Katekyou Hitman REBORN! Fanart Dino/Hibari Recs - [ page one - page two ] - I honestly didn't expect to like this pairing, I didn't really even think that much about it until awhile after I'd read their first scenes, and somehow... it just sort of absorbed into me and I couldn't stop thinking they would be absolutely, utterly, smoking hot together. And then there was some gorgeous fanart for them. And then there was some really hot fic that fed into it as well. Plus, Dino and Hibari are two of my favorite characters in the manga and they get some awesome art. I plan to utterly exhaust the j-fandom for every Dino/Hibari site I like and recommend it here. Maybe that'll mean that some of the art isn't really all that good for most people, but every site in this section is one that I got genuine enjoyment from. |
- Katekyou Hitman REBORN! Mukuro/Tsuna Fanart Recs - I can certainly see where this pairing comes from and... I don't entirely disagree. It's not necessarily something I would have gone for on my own, but I'm much looser with fanart and so I'm willing to look at just about anything that's pretty. And Mukuro/Tsuna gets a lot of really gorgeous art, so much that I felt I should put them all into their own catagory. It's the kind of quality that... even if you're not really that hyped on the idea of them, I would still suggest at least taking a look around for a little while, some of the sites are just too pretty to miss. |
- Katekyou Hitman REBORN! Other Pairings Fanart Recs - [ page one - page two - page three ] - I really am totally loose with fanart, so just about anything that's really pretty, I'll happily go looking for. There might be a random Tsuna pairing here or a random Hibari pairing here (they're two of the ones I like to go looking for any art that I can find of them), something I thought was cute or something that was too pretty to pass up. Or it might just be that a site has a handful of several pairings, but no single pairing so prominent that I can label it, and then I'll stick the site in here. I expect this section to be decent-sized. (And maybe someday I'll be able to find some het fanart, too! That would be nice.) |

 | - Katekyou Hitman REBORN! - Doujinshi Recs - Final Fantasy VII and REBORN! were the two series that most spurred me on into doing doujinshi recs because there's so much gorgeous stuff for them both and I really, really want to make as many people as I can download/read my favorite ones. *g* So, naturally, there's going to be a large focus on Dino/Hibari and Gokudera/Tsuna since those are my two pet doujinshi pairings. But I also will happily read Mukuro/Hibari or Mukuro/Tsuna or, well, anything that makes Hibari the fandom bicycle because he's my favorite. I kind of expect this section to balloon rapidly. |
 | - Katekyou Hitman REBORN! - Fan Comics Recs - I spend way too much time on devART for my own good, so, well, I wanted to at least have something to show for that. Often times there's a cute little multi-page comic that's not really enough for a full fanart site rec, but it's more than I'd shove into the artbits section, so I didn't know what to do with it. Until this section. This'll probably mostly focus on Hibari (especially Dino/Hibari or Mukuro/Hibari) because that's just what I'm geared for. I'll try to branch out, but... well, you give me a choice between D18 and anything else, I'll still take the D18. *__* |
