You guys weren't kidding when you said the first few chapters are boring.
I'm currently on Ch10 and its already a struggle just to keep reading. Normally, I would have dropped this already, but since people are saying that the story will get better later on, I'm gonna keep going.
Will return later and update this comment once I read further into the story.
As of Chapter 64, this is what I think:
- I don't like the main character. He's a whimpy little loser with an inferiority complex. Not my kinda guy. He doesn't have any noteworthy abilities.
His strength is dependent on the special bullet shot into his head.
Personality wise... well, he doesn't have any. I don't really mind that he doesn't have any special physical attributes, but at least have some strength of character! All he does is run away from his problems, complain about his friends, and whine about how weak and pathetic he is, which is true. He's a total wuss until reborn shoots him in the head, then suddenly he's all strong. pfft. Why is this guy even a main character?! Also, he's physically very plain...doesn't stand out at all... obviously NOT that cool looking kid on the picture up there. I'm beginning to think this is one of those manga where the main guy is an "everyman" and the action lies with the side characters. -3 point

The attempts at humor is very lame. I think a lot of incidents were suppose to be funny, but I could hardly even smirk at them. It's just not funny. -1 point

The magical bullets/weapons idea is kinda stupid. I'm all for the supernatural element, but the whole concept is very poorly developed.
Tsuna takes one shot to the head, becomes really strong, and defeats the enemy.
This plotline is used over and over and over again with little variation. VERY REPETITIVE. If the main character's strength is totally dependent on these outlandish weapons, and not on his own abilities, then isn't that pretty lame? -3 points
But, we'll see. Hopefully the idea will grow on me once the action gets going, which, so far, it hasn't. I'm only reading on because I heard that from ch100+ things will get better.
