【KHR】 Xanxus + KHR Misc Rambles 🔥🍷

Mainly KHR and Xanxus related rambles.

(Put the rest of the rambles of this under the cut)

(KHR: VARIA ARC SPOILERS)

Fandom wikis are a disaster tho cuz I remember seeing people put fucking. Nonsense fanfic theories on Xanxus' wiki page, which is just???

But I would still love to create and add wiki pages for LimGuda, JuAli, KuroEne, IdaTatsu

We work hard in niche popular ship and rare pair city!!! 💖✨

I have a thing for settling into niche popular (ie. LimGuda) and rare pair ships (ie. XanLena, JuAli, KuroEne, IdaTatsu) 💖

If only to spread the word for them 📸💥

...

Why are people putting their shitty speculations/theories into Xanxus' wiki page bruh.

This isn't even canon, just speculation.

C: OH YEAH THE WIKI IS LIKE THAT LMAO

Pretty sure somewhere in the wiki is a bit that says Shamal raised Gokudera 💀

Me: Dr. Shamal's whole concept is just so. Fuck off.

Like no Amano we did not need a (minor character) sexual harasser pervert man misogynist that constantly sexually harasses women (including underage girls 💀)

And he refuses to treat men as an adult doctor cuz he dislikes men & thinks he'll get the cooties.

Dr. Shamal /neg /derogatory 🚮

"Put in litter" emoji!!! 🚮🚮🚮

I still hate how Dr. Shamal is supposed to be the "Role model" figure for Gokudera just cuz his own ass father basically abandoned him

C: Xanxus' wiki page wtf

????

What are they smokinggg

Me: RIGHT LIKE WHO THE FUCK IS PUTTING THIS SHIT

C: How young was Xanxus when he got taken in?

5? 6?

Me: We never get an age confirmation for when he was taken in by Timoteo (Vongola 9th)

But considering how small kid Xanxus is, I'm just gonna assume anywhere from 5 - 12

C: That's way before any developmental cap

Even assuming Timoteo was such a loving father, he could have probably taught him better and raised him to be different

Me: RIGHT LMAOO

"The kindly Ninth"

Ok /neg

TIMOTEO BEING DESCRIBED AS KIND MAKES ME WANNA GAG HONESTLY

Like no. Timoteo was definitely an emotionally neglective pathetic ass "parent"

He never address his emotional needs or ever find ways to address Xanxus' emotional issues/rage

And even in KHR manga canon he never apologizes for what he did to Xanxus specifically.

(KHR: Varia Arc - Spoilers)

Varia Arc - Xanxus' Backstory

Ok I'll sum this up quickly.

Context: Basically what happens in KHR manga canon is that Xanxus was born in the slums and developed a rare flame, the Flame of Wrath, at an early age, and eventually got taken in by Timoteo (Vongola 9th).

Xanxus was made to believe that he'd be the Vongola 10th boss (and was supported by most of the family, except Timoteo ofc), and his arrogance grew as he got older from being raised on a pedestal.

Timoteo kept the secrets hidden that Xanxus could never be Vongola 10th (assumably cuz he was too distanced from the main bloodline)

Xanxus eventually finds out the secret of the Vongola inheritance and rule by breaking into/melting a locked chamber with his flame.

Enraged that he could never be the successor and at Timoteo for betraying him by keeping the information hidden from him, teen Xanxus eventually gathered the Varia members as his subordinates and started a coup d'état against Vongola 9th (an incident later referred to as the "Cradle Affair")

Xanxus got punished with a fate almost worse than death, Timoteo uses the Dying Will Zero Point Breakthrough technique that essentially freezes him in (magical) ice.

Timoteo never apologizes for (basically) freezing his son in magical ice and just, essentially leaves him there in ice prison. For 8 years.

But to the rest of the Vongola family, this truth was concealed, so it was widely believed he was kept on strict surveillance instead.

In the present KHR plot, 8 years later, Xanxus gets freed by an unknown person, and, when presented/confronted with his traumas that get dug up again, goes off the rails.

Understanding that this is the only way that he could become Vongola 10th boss, when both the Vongola 9th boss (Timoteo), and the chief external advisor (Iemitsu) approved of Tsuna as the Vongola 10th boss successor, Xanxus plots a scheme in his goal to become Vongola 10th boss.

He has Vongola 9th stuffed inside a deadly robot draining at his life force (LMFAO), then sets up the Ring Battles - a tournament style set-up where he and his Varia members will compete against Tsuna and co., to fight for the Vongola Rings, in deadly matches, in order to decide who will become the Vongola 10th boss and Vongola 10th generation guardians.

(KHR: Varia Arc - Ch. 122)

When this relevation is revealed:

Tsuna ends up splitting the robot that Timoteo is inside (unaware that he was trapped inside).

Timoteo only apologizes to Tsuna for "allowing Xanxus to escape [from the ice he was encased/trapped in]"

Timoteo then reaffirms that he chose Tsuna as the Vongola 10th successor, and not Xanxus

And never apologizes to his own son

Like WHY is THAT your priorities. Apologizing for allowing him to escape?

FUCKING HATE THIS MAN SM I CAN'T STAND HIS ASS!!!

LIKE WTF IS THIS

This chara can fuck off so hard honestly

Dawg he reminds me of Il (AkaYona) with how they're both a badly written woobified parent chara framed as sympathetic (completely undeservingly)

...

That was your own teenage son and yet you robbed him of his own agency AND the chance to steer his own life and become a better person.

He lost vital years for growing (8 years...), and it shows in the adult-like composure but teenager-like emotional immaturity that Xanxus has.

It's so needlessly heartless and cruel. As I said, this fate of getting locked away in ice (jail) to be forgotten forever, is almost worse than death.

I'm never gonna get over how fucked up it is in context that Timoteo resolved this sitaution by ice-ing his son.

Reborn's words in the KHR manga also confirm what I initially speculated as well: Timoteo misused the Dying Will Zero Point Breakthrough technique, the freezing ice technique.

It was originally created by Vongola Primo (1st generation Vongola boss) to seal away Dying Will flames.

The Cradle Affair situation could've ended with Timoteo just freezing his hands temporarily.

It's not supposed to be used to FREEZE PEOPLE...

He didn't want to deal with the problems he caused by being a shit ass neglective parent tho, so he just froze Xanxus and kept the ice locked away in chains and metal.

Someone like Reborn, who is privy to many of the Vongola family's secrets, even thought he was kept under surveillance after that (which would've been more reasonable).

KEPT OUT OF SIGHT. KEPT OUT OF MIND. FOR 8 YEARS???

...

The fact that Xanxus was so enraged (both when he was a teen during the Coup, and as an adult now) is so valid honestly.

Vongola 9th getting trapped inside a robot by Xanxus & the Varia is perfect karma lmfao

I'm glad that KHR's framing on its villains/antagonists is mostly neutral, but I really can't stand the way it treats Xanxus' harboured rage/resentment as something he was in the wrong for

Like it's so obvious that he thinks of "love and friendship" as worthless because his views are so obviously affected by his upbringing - he only knows "love" from the worthless man that betrayed him.

Added with the fact that as an assassin leader, the leader of the Varia, a mafia boss, he never would've had the need for the "Feelings first" attitude that Tsuna has. It is wholly unecessary to him.

...

In retrospect, to be "loved" genuinely, is what he (Xanxus) always needed. But he didn't get that. He certainly didn't get it from his shit ass incompetent parent.

Like it framed his harboured resentment and the fact that he was so emotionally broken and riddled with grief and trauma, as something he was in the wrong for (and frames Timoteo as sympathetic).

Which is just... (.) 💀

Magi, which has such a sympathetic and cathartic framing of its antagonist/opposing figure charas, would never do this to me!

Like I agree Xanxus went off the rails overboard (valid of him tho lmfao considering his context) but none of his actions, deserved that kind of fate.

In conclusion, Timoteo can fuck off

...

You (Timoteo) treated him, your own son, like a rabid animal fearful that they'll bite someone, and not an actual person.

He NEVER expresses regret for his actions in what he did to his own son which is so fucked up.

So I can't fucking stand his "warm grandad" side he shows to Tsuna. He never shows it to his own son.

Especially when the way Timoteo is treated in both the Varia arc and later arcs as a warmly grandfatherly figure.

Really feels like Amano's "fix-it" writing in trying to frame and woobify (redeem an asshole chara undeservingly) this series' awful parent charas as "See! He was actually good after all!"

I still don't trust the framing of Timoteo in the Simon arc. Like oh this man finally wants to take responsibility now?

For everything except how he treated his son. Lol.

Pack it up cuz none of Amano's "fix-it" writing could ever make me like this chara (Timoteo)

...

C: LMAO

There's a huge gap in how Timoteo treats Xanxus and how he treats basically everyone else

Me: Dr. Shamal is just 💀

D*E CISHET TRASH!!!

C: Lmfao valid

Me: It was just this before. Which is completely fine

Me: And then all of a sudden in 2023 someone inserted their stupid speculations into his wiki page

C: Bhbhbh fucken cursed

...

(KHR: Varia Arc - Ch. 134 Spoilers)

Also it would just make more sense if Xanxus's verbal tic/habit of saying "trash" or "scum" (カス[ども], Kasu [domo]) came from how, after being taken in, how his arrogance grew as he became older.

Since he looked down on other families and other Vongola Boss candidate successors from branch families, and saw himself as superior cuz he was basically raised on a pedestal after being taken in and was raised to believe that he'd be the 9th boss' successor

...

R: Never trust fandom wikis

C: For real

R: The shipping wiki either 😁

C: LOL

Sounds like a disaster

...

R: YEAHH ;;; shipping wikis are so biased it hurts. Why are you putting a ship that was never confirmed canon as canon 👹

Me: Oh yeah… Since it can be edited by anyone I imagine it can be a mess as well

C: Yeah it seems likely he just started saying it at some point

Ahh yeah. Yeah he really thought he was king of the world

C: Help jsngndfsd

C: It feels like it's trying very hard to make Xanxus' character's tragedy and trauma ONLY his early childhood 😭

To a lot of characters you can apply that they start to use the insults that have been directed at them, but Xanxus just… doesn't feel like that

Because yeah he's arrogant as hell, he thinks he's above everyone.

C: Exactly omg

Me: RIGHT like that's why it bothers me sm…

Xanxus' character tragedy lies in his WHOLE context (ie. His early childhood, the entire Cradle Affair situation)

It's really so insulting to me that it dismisses his character's whole tragedy (in his early childhood and teenage years) while trying to make him come off as some uwu sad boy that was hurt by other people, so now he calls them trash back. That isn't Xanxus.

Dawg if you're at least gonna put fanon speculations can you at least put good ones. LMFAO

Xanxus just doesn't feel like that kind of character. He thinks he's the king of the world, and so, looks down on everyone.

C: Yeaaaaa that's very true

It's just. It's not Xanxus man

C: Yeah

He's simply above everyone

#Not gonna tag this cuz I'll lose it if I get people justifying his shitty dad's actions in my mentions #Literally nothing could justify just how poorly he dealt with his own son and the Cradle incident #But thankfully it's becoming more widely understood that majority of the parents in this series are dogshit lmao!#I obviously sympathize with the morally questionable & bankrupt evil meow meow mf cuz his whole deal is so interesting and compelling to me #Not the badly written woobified parent #sen's rambles #ktky #rbrn #xx #xnln #xanlena
