Summary: Tsuna is a hapless youth with low test scores and lower self esteem. His mother hires a tutor to help Tsuna out, but it comes as a surprise to the both of them when the tutor is a baby named Reborn, claiming to be from the Mafia. Reborn informs Tsuna that he's the next heir to the Vongola family mafia family and tries to help Tsuna reach the goal. Reborn possesses the Dying Will bullet, which kills a person and brings them back to life to fulfill the last regret they had, and even works to get Tsuna some henchmen to make him a true mafia boss-in-training.

At first I wasn't sure whether I would begin to like this anime, because it started slow and somewhat boring with typical jokes and a timid scaredy-cat as the main character.
But after the basic episodes and character introduction, skipping the fillers, from episode 19 on I found Reborn really cool.
To some points the story seems to be average, typically Shounen, but then there are some crazy ideas and characters making it all up and make Reborn really worth watching.

The animations are good, but nothing special such as the drawing style which could be better sometimes.

What I like most about Reborn is that the whole plot and characters aren't death serious, there is always a place for self-humour - and that's what I think of as a great pro. It's just likable if the author makes fun of his own characters and ideas sometimes.
The whole theme with the baby home tutor shouldn't scare you, just give it a try and you'll find even them somewhat cute and funny, though Reborn is sometimes a little too smart and powerful - in my opinion.

Nevertheless I really recommend watching Hitman Reborn because it is different from usual Shounen Anime and Manga. There are some great ideas, action, a lot of fun, a broad variety of different characters reaching from stereotypes to total freaks. Don't let the first episodes scare you because it really gets entertaining.
It might not be the type of Anime that captivates you from the beginning, but if you take your time you will begin to like it.
