Team Dynamics

I added the text in gallery so I hope you can still see it, but if not, here it is:

Luce- responsible for figuring out the destination, the mission, and whether to drive thru McDonald's or KFC. Impossible job in this group.

Skull- gets them wherever they need to be. Main responsibility is to keep the car moving. Many people's first instinct is to shoot the driver. Good luck with that.

Berde- made the car, can be trusted for any repairs and upgrades, is as physically invulnerable as Skull is unkillable, has easy access to Luce's seat and is between Tanvi and Rafel.

Lal- middle is a good place to call out shots and strategy on field, an all-rounder with specialty in hand to hand, very opinionated, and almost as good at rallying up others as she is at riling up others.

Reborn- has a tendency to go off on his own to create drama, Not A Healer, specializes in mid-range with second close-combat, and easier to rile up than you'd expect.

Viper- is provided a wide range of awareness through the Mist that blankets everything always, makes a natural scout and gossip, perches on everything and everyone, and has an eye for the value a person can be sold at their best price- and a bit more.

Colonnello- sniper, Lal's plus one, took Viper's designated seat, is second in line to deal with long-range opponents, always takes Lal's side especially against Reborn.

Liu Fan- is the most physically inclined of everyone so his seat is the first to be given up in case of extra baggage since he can just run to where he needs to be quickly, has zero contribution to defense, and downright impossible to defend against when your attention was otherwise preoccupied up front with seemingly better targets.

I just realized Colonnello looks so low-effort- I mean he is, but not bcs I don't like him, I just imagine him always falling asleep in the car.

[hopeswriting]

Apologies I am late to this conversation but I always assumed the reason Aria and Uni were not made into babies was just because of how they received the pacifiers. That Luce was still a baby, and most likely whoever of the orange pacifiers was cursed through the events of the representative battle or the fated day became babies but their descendants who were cursed outside of it didn’t. Did I just make that all up in my mind for all these years?

Why is Luce always drawn as a baby then?

hi nonny, thank you for your ask!

well idk about you making it all up in your mind lol, but as much as canon doesn't deny it, it also doesn't imply it's the case. and imo the way i see it, i don't see why it'd be the case?

like i agree the representative war and the fated day are the "official" ways to be cursed, yet they're still two different ways to go about it, right? and canon tells us that either way, the sky arco aren't turned into babies. so when it comes to the third way of inheriting the pacifier like with the sky arco, i don't see why the rules of the sky arco's curse should suddenly change in that case. like, they still end up cursed the exact same way as luce was/the other arco are, aren't they? like, the weight and technicalities of the curse stay the same no matter what, so that's why to me, it makes more sense that it'd still operate under the same rules. that said, your reasoning holds up just as well in canon too, so if you like it better, by all means stick with it!

now why IS she always drawn as a baby lmao. 😭 that sure is the million-dollar question nonny. (outside the anime fillers, that is, which aren't canon, but even in the manga it happens.) like, as much as byakuran explicitly states that the forms of the sky arco don't change in the rainbow arc (and that in exchange they're cursed with a short lifespan), there's still mixed signals in the manga that kind of contradicts that. but well, amano went out of her way to make byakuran say that, so that's what i personally go with and stick with anyway. if for no other reason than because, like. imagine you're cursed just the same as your fellow arco, with you being turned into a baby and having your flames constantly stolen by the pacifier, but then you, specifically, are also cursed with a short lifespan going forwards just because???

also if the short lifespan is in exchange for them not being turned into babies, then it also explains why the arco are turned into babies to begin with. looking at those two facts together, it seems that the weight of the curse is too heavy for their normal bodies to bear it without them meeting an early death, and one way or another, them being turned into babies makes them more suitable to bear it for longer. (which of course both kawahira and the trinisette would gain from it, because it means they can feed off their flames for longer amount of time at a time.)

Arcobaleno Pre-Curse Heights

A quick disclaimer before we begin. I am not the best at guessing heights based just off images but I tried my best. If anyone has any corrections do let me know.

Canon:

Lal Mirch: 5’5 (166 cm)

Uni: 4’10 (148 cm)

Luce: 5’7 (170 cm)

Assumptions based on manga panels:

Reborn: 6’1 – 6’2 (186-189 cm)

Fon: 5’8 – 5’9 (175 cm)

Mammon: 4’11 (150 cm)

Aria: 5’5 (165 cm)

Unknown:

Colonnello

Verde

Skull

More info and explanations under the cut ↓

Another important thing to note beforehand. Many of the pictures of the Arcobaleno drawn all together by both the Amano themselves or the anime are very inconsistent, or they're standing at angles/strange perspectives, so it makes it impossible to tell their heights. Therefore, I will not be using those as references except for in one case which you will see further down.

Lal Mirch: Lal's official uncursed height was confirmed in the REBORN! ēlDLIVE character's 365 book.

Uni: Uni's official height was confirmed in the REBORN! ēlDLIVE character's 365.

Luce: Luce’s official height was confirmed on her display at the Amano Akira Exhibition (it also says she likes basking in the sun/sunbathing which is so cute). Unfortunetly, it was only Luce's who's uncursed height was revealed at this event.

Reborn: Mostly going off this image of his fight with Iemitsu. They are both at an angle, and both a little slouched (Reborn more so due to him having his arms being held down). However, it's obvious they are at least very similar in height if not the same height. Iemitsu's canon height is 189 cm or 6’2 thus I placed Reborn at around the same.

Fon: Fon's height seems to be pretty similar to Hibari's! Perhaps a little taller if anything since in the photo below he's leaning away and down a bit (since Hibari is hitting him) and Hibari even seems to be slouching a tiny bit. Hibari's canon height is 169 cm or 5'6 maybe even 5'7. And so I placed Fon a few inches taller.

Mammon: Okay, Mammon's used a bit more of guess work but I'm pretty confident in my choice. In the photo below Bel is obviously leaning down quite a bit but if he were to stand up straight it would seem Mammon head would reach their chest. Bel is 170 or around 5’7. Looking at a height comparison chart/website, for someone to reach Bel's chest at the height I predicted they would be about 4'11 (150 cm). Not to mention Bel himself says to them "but your size is pretty compact".

Aria: Little hard to tell here since the first pic she’s at an angle (at least I’m assuming). but she’s a little past Gamma’s shoulder. Gamma is 6 foot (185 cm) so I placed Aria is about 5’5 (165 cm) (once again using the height comparison chart).

Colonnello: OKAY SO. This is a struggle for me. Ultimately I placed him still as unknown as the information was too inconsistent. Here are pics of Colonnello next to Lal. We see that her head is to his chest, the top hitting his shoulders. Lal is 5'5 (166 cm). Using my height calculator that would place Colonnello at 6'6 (198 cm)?????

Now, the reason I can't 100% get behind this is if we look at the photo below! Obviously they're all at an angle and perspective is weird so we can't actually use this as a reference! However, I do believe there is some truth in it and here you can not tell me Colonnello looks 6'6!! At the very least though I think we can confirm he's most likely the tallest of them unless one day we discover Verde or Skull are giants.

Verde: Unfortunetly he does not appear to stand next to anyone while uncursed so I can not compare heights.

Skull: Skull only briefly stands in front of Enma while uncursed for a bit. However, Enma is crouched down so it would be very hard for me to compare heights.

If anyone has any additional thoughts or information please let me know!

[steamworksfairy]

You ever think about how the Arcobaleno all have intense cryptic energy?

Like Skull literally can't die. And because he's so loser core (affectionate) he's died in front of people so many times only to get back up like nothing happened.

Reborn....*points the guy with a chameleon that changes into different weapons*. Tbh if you told me he was an alien, I'd believe you.

The Vindice are basically the men in black.

Verde... no one knows if he's an alien, a guy from the future hell bent on giving us better technology to prevent a future catastrophe, or a tired government agent who doesn't get paid enough to babysit his cryptids and therefore doesn't.

Lal, however, is the too tired government agent who does babysit her crypids. Help jer she's suffering and in need of coffee and a break.

Fon *points to Hibari and Alaude* he's clearly a clone. Those are clones! People are being cloned-

Mammon is that shadowy cryptid you can only ever capture blurry pictures for. And then you receive a bill in the mail charging you for said picture. Basically urban legend status. There's a rumor going around if you take a picture of this strange cloaked person you will in fact go bankrupt.

Colonello is that strange inhuman creature that fell in love with the government agent lady who watches him. People assume he's from a super soldier program. Like some kind Marvel bs with Winter Soilder or Captain America or the DC version of that, Deathstroke. He's clearly human but also not.

Luce, Aria, and Yuni are 110% the most normal out of all of them, tho. Definitely not decents of a secret race of non humans that existed pre-humans. Nope, those girls are humans 💚

[dreaming-hibi]

Let's thank @ilx-8s for this one theory

Let me summarize it for those of us who don't read the replies in posts: "Freed from the curse Yuni would outlive everyone"

And like, yeah, absolutely true!

In my case, I'll admit that I totally forgot to do that math, because if the rest of the Arcobaleno got freed from their baby curse, then Yuni obviously got rid of her short-lifespan curse! How does someone forget something like that?

Anyway, considering Yuni's ancestor is Sepira, who was the same species as Kawahira, then certainly she could have a long lifespan now (and outlive everyone).

But! I definitely think she won't.

I mean, I love angst as much as the next person, but (un)fortunately I don't think Yuni is heading in that direction.

Let's recap what we know of Sepira:

Sepira is the same specie as Kawahira/Checker Face, a True Earthling as opposed to New Earthling (humans)

From what we understand, Sepira was at least more proactive than Kawahira at trying to find a solution to the Tri-ni-sette as well as the burden it had on the Arcobaleno

Sepira was the one who decided to give the Vongola Rings to Giotto (and its hinted that this happened BEFORE the establishment of the Vongola Famiglia, so while he was still leader of his vigilante group) and keep the Mare Rings in her newly formed famiglia, the Giglio Nero

Sepira could see the future

She was Giglio Nero Prima

Let's recap what we don't know about her:

How she died

If she was an Arcobaleno

While this inscription on a wall with Sepira's birthmark on it might suggest otherwise, it's unlikely that Sepira was a Sky Arcobaleno at any point in time. If she had been then Luce, her descendant, would have already been in possession of the Sky pacifier on the Fated Day.

So Sepira wasn't an Arcobaleno (someone, please, go tell the KHR wikia to change that). Then how did she die? Kawahira and Sepira are the same species, but he's alive and she's not, so what is the difference between them? How did she die in a way that wasn't considered unnatural enough for Kawahira to remark on it?

Well, I think the answer is in their way of living!

Sepira decided to live among and like a human, while Kawahira decided to live like the cryptid he is. So it makes sense that Sepira's lifespan adapted to that of a normal human being (and why Kawahira talks like she's died in a natural way, because she has!). And it would make even more sense that her descendants would be even more human if she procreated with a human. Unless they self-reproduce which explains the absence of both Aria's and Yuni's father and why Gamma had no idea Aria had a kid.

Sorry, angst, but I don't think Yuni will be going down the path of "I have a longer lifespan than all the people I know so I will watch them die one day".

Your art is so beautiful! The way you draw, the strength of your lines where you want to attract attention and the softness around makes everything look ethereal and I love it ❤️

I really need a course on how to respond to such delightful compliments because I'm truly speechless

I can't thank you enough for taking the time to let me know this 🩵 I'm happy to hear that my art brings you joy in some way

Here's a pair of sketches I managed to make at work while reflecting on your lovely comment.

I think you really hit the nail in the head: my favorite things to draw and those that I think I can do best are all "soft" in a way- hair, capes, flames, smoke. I grew comfortable with all those parts that include flowy lines, and that's why you see me posting mostly portraits and upper torsos, long dresses, capes and similar stuff (what are arms? Wrists? Hands???? I don't know how those things work. Legs? I can manage, but god forbid I learn how to draw arms. Also can we talk about Reborn's fedora? I've tried drawing that thing like 100 times and NOT ONCE did I get it right, it's out of this world)

KHR basically taught me how to draw, I took my first real steps thanks to tracing official art and screencaps from the anime. I've always loved Akira Amano's style which I think peaked in post future arc and that's the kind of flowy, soft style I want to achieve.

Also, if it wasn't for my love for inking the outlines and watercolour, I'd leave all my drawings as pencil sketches like the ones above and the ones you see me posting sometimes. I think there's something so... "ethereal", as you said, about unfinished sketches. They feel so alive and natural to me.

I like them unfinished, with little to no background detail - and this applies to other artists as well! I love it when they leave the basic anatomy lines in the sketch for example, it truly shows an idea's progression to basic lines to the rest.

I hope I was clear enough - I've written this between phone calls because it was a good occasion to talk about why I post unfinished sketches so often. Sometimes I find it even more fun and rewarding than a full blown coloured illustration - speaking of which, Tristam's character sheet is coming as soon as I figure out how to colour that bastard because he's being difficult to me, with all his fabulous goth aesthetic and all

Mom, can we have arcobaleno?

No, we already have arcobaleno at home

Katekyo Hitman Reborn Emoji Package Pt. 1

Been obsessed with KHR crossover fics for months now so I thought if i have DC emojis already why not make some KHR ones too? And of course I had to start with the acrobalenos!

Gonna draw the rest of them too.. probably

[moonlit-mystery-writer]

Three different aesthetic boards of Celeste with three of her partners. Luce, Lal Mirch, and Verde.

[katzkinder]

We know so damn little about Luce and her relationship with the other Arcobaleno but damn if it isn’t fun to speculate about it and the complicated feelings they all have about her

She was the one who helped to smooth away the rough edges Reborn had built by the time they met, who made him feel relaxed, at ease, like maybe the world isn’t as bad as he thought

She was the one who helped Fon learn to maintain his perpetual calm and always treated him as a friend even when others became frightened after an outburst showed just how destructive he could be.

The one who always smiled and treated Skull kindly, the one who not only allowed but even encouraged Colonello to join them, the one who mediated their arguments and gave them an unconditional love and helped them to build a family with one another.

The one who did all this knowing she would also be instrumental to taking it all away

And even so

They can’t hate her

She was theirs, as much as they were hers

If, by some twisted miracle, she appeared in front of them again, though…

They know where they would go

And they know she would be so damn happy, that it’s not with her

The Arcobaleno system is one which fosters love for the sole purpose of breaking it to pieces in the name of a “greater good”

Luce couldn’t possibly have known that they would find happiness, years and years into the future, long after she vanished from their lives

But she would have seen that no future exists in which they forgive her, in which they’re able to see her again, before her time is due

It’s for the best.

All she can do is hope, and pray, and I wonder if maybe, just maybe, wherever she went after she died… She was able to meet a certain man, who pointed her to a certain time, and allowed her to see through a certain ring

That her prayers have been answered in the form of a boy named Sawada Tsunayoshi

[analviel]

Randomly decided to go back to read this old fic and I was surprised how excited it made me.

Basically a two chapter worth of how the first Arcobaleno mission could have happened.

Just for more context:

I've always believed that the scene in KHR of the flashback of the Il Priscelti Sette meeting was actually the last job's meeting, that is to become Arcobaleno unbeknownst to them, so there would be a dozen missions before that. I have many versions of how their acquaintanceship and relationships develops in my mind, but basically what all my headcanons all share is that there was the First Mission they were hired by Checkerface, making sure to establish an introduction with each other.

Then Checkerface sends out another mission, but this time only hiring three of the seven, and then the next two missions happens at the same time but he hires only two pairs for them, and then another mission with five of them, and then the next wave of missions are individual quests, so on so forth, where they basically get acquainted within that group of people that they actually trade and deal business with each for their personal gain (Verde is often contracted by COMSUBIN -and other less than legal orgs too but whatevs- but now Lal and Reborn could just contact him directly for their very own special customized new toys, Viper had a whole network of puppers and unknowing informants that they use as middlemen to secure deals and deliever information but now gets a new phone just for personal contacts they could expect to ring for them, Fon could be pestered for random manual labor like delievering something in exchange for a bit of gossip that he'd find useful or even something as mundane as a recipe or a location or a person to fight, etc.).

Colonnello later on being Lal's plus one when she needs a back up for an assignment from COMSUBIN that she needs to do in the same location as the mission from Checkerface.

I imagine Checkerface with seven cards in a deck, with handwritten notes of the skills and strengths of each Arco and playing them according to the mission at the time.

And then on the third time they're all gathered together, they go on a mission that curses them.

[hopeswriting]

imagine you're luce, and you're born the heir to a mafia family. you're mafia-born, and so of course also mafia-raised, and then also a donna-to-be. you're raised to be able to take on the role, to be good and capable at it, are taught to make one of your core beliefs about how the many must come before the few, because the family must always come first. you're going to be the donna, of course you must always prioritize the family above all else, it's your foremost and most important duty.

if caring about the few too comes at the price of the many, comes at the price of the family, is it even worth it? if the happiness gained from it comes at the price of a greater suffering for others, is there even any meaning to it, even if it's your happiness we're talking about? you understand, don't you?

you're not sure if you do, but you care about your family, love it, want to do right by it once you become their donna, so you nod, listen and learn.

(you don't have to be taught the pain and loss and guilt and anger and bitterness is a fair price to pay for the pain you decide has to be inflicted and the sacrifices you decide must be made, including by yourself. it's the least you could do, even.)

imagine you're luce, and the gift of foresight runs through your blood.

you would not call it a gift. you did not ask for it either. and you'll never come to see it as something wanted by you.

you can see the future, and it happened exactly as you saw it would, so of course it's exactly the way you wanted it to go. you can see the future, and it happened exactly as you saw it would, so of course you didn't care to try hard enough to change it. you saw the future before the shape of it had yet to be breathed into existence, and who's to say it didn't come into existence only because you saw it happen? you saw the future, and it happened worse than it had to for it.

you can see the future, but you still can't make it anything else than what it was always going to be. you can even make the visions happen at your will, but you still have no say on what you see or how much you see. you still can only be the witness of it before anyone else can.

it does mean double and longer the happiness sometimes, means relief and gratefulness and hope beyond words, and it'd be cruel of you to voice out loud your feelings for others to hear the many more times it means something else.

you can see the future, and it doesn't make it any kinder on you than on anyone else, does not give you any more power or control over it than anyone else, but at least you can see the future. you're given the time to make peace with it, to brace yourself for it, to bargain with it, to plead and beg and fight against it however desperately and hopelessly, even if in the end it still happens exactly as you saw it would.

(you can see the future, and it still doesn't hurt you any less than anyone else when it happens, but you don't expect anymore for anyone to hold you any less responsible for it anyway. it would be nice for someone to do it one day, but you understand.)

you can see the future, and you decide it's a kindness to both yourself and others to keep it for yourself as much as possible whenever you can.

imagine you're luce, and your family has this set of rings they've looked after and protected for as long as your family has existed. they're one set of three of the most important artifacts in the world, ones that help in safeguarding its existence and balance. they're duty, the very first one and the most important one your family was created for.

the pacifier around your mother's neck is duty too, and the most important and powerful artifact among twenty-one in safeguarding the world and its balance. it's been passed down in your family too, from mother to daughter. it's duty, but less tied to your family and much more to the blood running through your veins. it's a curse, in fact, as it demands heavy sacrifices the rings don't, and one that can only be tied to the blood running through your veins.

(your mother looks at you as if expecting some kind of reaction from you, and you can only wonder at which point you weren't supposed to see it as a given. duty and sacrifices have been one and the same for you for a long time now. is it even duty if it doesn't require any sacrifices from you?)

imagine you're luce, and your mother dies for duty. she's the donna, and so she dies for your family. she's the sky arcobaleno, and so she dies for the world. she's your mother, but she dies anyway, doesn't fight it either, even knowing she will leave you behind, even knowing she won't ever get to see what you look like all grown-up.

everywhere you look, duty stares back at you, from your mother and the pacifier around her neck, her love for your family and the life she gives up for it, her love for you and how she dies anyway while you're still only a child. duty, from your family members and how they die for you and kill for you, how they do both at your command, how their lives are in the palms of your hands and how they weigh only as much as you allow them to at a time. duty, from the knowledge your foresight gives you and the shackles tied to the blood running through your veins.

your mother's only duty while she lives too. she loves you, but she'd have had to give birth to you anyway even if she didn't. she loves you, but she still gave birth to you even knowing the kind of life you'd have to live, the kind of hands you'd inevitably end up with, the burdens she'd have to lay on your shoulders, passing them down from her own. because she loves you, she finds the resolve to raise you to be able to face all of it head-on and come out on top, but she'd have had to raise you much the same way anyway even if she didn't.

(she doesn't die for you, doesn't fight to be able to keep living with you, and this, too, is your mother surrendering to duty one last time.)

(you're so sick of it, so angry at it, so hateful and resentful against it. you're so stifled by it to the point you've stopped being able to breathe for a long time now. or you would have been if they had taught you how to face duty in this way too.

it's for the better they didn't. a silver lining, sparing you pain that isn't necessary for you to go through. everyone you turn to only teaches you how to keep holding your breath longer, and you listen and learn, obedient and dutiful as you've ever been.

you're grateful for it too. really, you are.)

everywhere you look, there's no room for you to so much as question any of it, let alone anything more. duty is commendable, something you ought to look up to and strive towards, strive to achieve. duty is the right thing to do. of course it is.

(you exhale a breath of relief that shakes you down to your very core.

thank god, it's at least the right thing to do.

you're grateful for it beyond words. really, you are.)

imagine you're luce, and before it even happens, you know the choice you'll make when climbing that mountain, when standing on top of it, when waiting for a bright light to shine down on you from above. you know the choice you'll make then, even when pregnant with your daughter.

it doesn't matter since how long you knew, be it years, months, days, hours or minutes before. all that matters is that before you can even contemplate the idea of making another choice and all its implications and possible consequences, before the thought can even come alive in your mind, you already know the choice you'll make.

(you can see the future, but just because you already saw it, it doesn't mean it's now set in stone.

you can see the future, but just because you're given the chance to fight to change it, it doesn't mean it still won't happen every bit like you saw it.

it doesn't mean it can't still happen even worse than how you first saw it happen because you fought to change it, no matter how already dreadful it originally was.)

imagine you're luce, and before it even happens, you know they'll be others with you standing on top of that mountain. you're the only one who'll know it before it happens.

(because you can see the future.

and oh, you did not ask for it.)

they're strangers, people you don't owe anything to. adults who choose to show up at the first meeting, and to show up to every following mission after that. the chosen seven, whose ambitions and prides lead them to walk the path of the seven strongest too once laid down in front of them.

you don't force their hands in making any of those choices for them. you're not responsible for any of them.

you become coworkers then, accomplices, your hands stained in blood to various extent, but now dipping in the same pool of blood as you strive towards the same goal together. you have each other's backs, learn each other's strengths and weaknesses, learn each other's personalities, likes and dislikes. you keep having to spend more time together as the missions keep coming your way.

inevitably, you come to care about them. even more damning, they come to care about you in return. enough so they'll look after your daughter even after what'll happen on top of that mountain. enough so they'll look after your granddaughter too, warmly and fondly enough she'll call one of them uncle.

you're still the only one who knows they'll stand together with you on top of that mountain, not knowing what'll happen on it like you do.

and you do care about them, you swear you do. really, you do.

(you care about them the same way your mother cared about you, and how she still raised you to have steel in you and be made of sharp edges you know how to use. you care about them the same way you care about your family, and how you still send them to their deaths as needed so the rest of your family you care about just the same can keep on living longer and safely. this is the only way you've had the chance to learn how to care and love.

duty and sacrifices have been one and the same for you for as long as you can remember. it doesn't matter at which point sacrifices came to mean love to you too.

and most of all, you love your daughter more than anything else in the world.)

imagine you're luce, and this is who you are. this is who you've been raised to be, the only way you've been given room to grow up to be. this is the life you've lived and the kind of life that has shaped you as the person you are now. this is what you've been taught and told is the best version of yourself you could have grown up to be. this is who you ended up being by what you've been taught and told are all the right choices to make.

you're still the only one who knows what is about to happen on top of that mountain. it hasn't happened yet. the fate of the world hangs on what'll happen on top of that mountain, the same world you'll have to give birth to your daughter in. the same daughter you're currently pregnant with.

now imagine you're luce, look me in the eye and tell me you'd know how to even form the thought of the possibility of there being any other choice to make. look me in the eye and tell me you wouldn't look at the only choice in front of you, and know deep in your bones it's the only right choice to make. that it is right of you to make it. because it simply has to be.

(imagine you're luce, and you're not doomed by the narrative. of course, you're not.

why would you need to be when the narrative has painstakingly shaped you all your life to become its perfect, faithful and dutiful sacrificial lamb?

and then, imagine you're luce, and you're even grateful for it, so, so very grateful it held up its end of the bargain too.

truly, you are.)

I am the only one that wants the Shinigami Captains to meet the Arcobaleno?

Like...the Strongest Seven, a butch of mere arrogant humans not even on their first century yet, begin faced with how little they are.

The Arcobaleno begin they usual jerk selves and the Shinigami owning them? Just beat them to the ground like they are nothing?

Vizard!Skull would be awesome too. He'd call the Arcobaleno 'brats' and his Hollow can eat Kawahira for breakfeast.

Yamamoto Genryusai meeting Vongola Nono and Timoteo begin all petty in front of such powerful ancient Sky?

Yoruichi and Soi-Fon outfasting Fon?

Byakuya beating Reborn?

Zaraki single-handed defeating them all?

Kawahira begin grounded like a bratty child?

Hitsugaya begin older than all of them and scoffing at their padronizing tones?
