Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Xanxus

I don’t know who this is and what is with that "x" mark on his gun, but that is some pretty impressive detailing! Even the scars on his face look very well done! If you know the character and/or the cosplayer, please leave a comment and I’ll edit this as soon as I can! Thanks to Jeannie for sending this in!

EDIT: Thanks to Jane for letting me know he is Xanxus of Katekyo Hitman Reborn! Can anyone confirm who the cosplayer is, please? A like to the cosplayer's website would be awesome, thank you!

EDIT 2: Thanks to Yin for linking Yuegene's Deviant Art and Blog!

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Kakimoto Chikusa

One of Mukuro’s most loyal subordinates, Kakimoto Chikusa rarely speaks and talks only if necessary. This necessity includes teasing and arguing with his partner, Joshima Ken. Both he and Ken care deeply for Chrome, but Chikusa never shows this openly and Ken always denies his concern as well. Chikusa will follow any of Mukuro’s orders and is willing to sacrifice himself for Mukuro.

Awesome cosplay! I’ve always loved portraits that have a blurred background and sharp foreground! Thanks to Judith for sending this!

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Chrome Dokuro 06

When Chrome Dokuro returned to the future, the other members of the Family worried about her because she wasn't eating. Her friendship with I-pin, however, soon changed this and she began joining them for dinner. She then started training to master her illusions with the virtual training challenge created by Mammon. She also honed her skills in combat with Bianchi and I-Pin.

Cute Chrome by 16-year-old Swedish cosplayer ECOC! It’s too bad she wasn’t able to have her photo shoot in the building she wanted, but I think this worked out well too! Thanks to Fany for sending this!

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Hibari Kyoya and Dino Chiavarone

Dino was Hibari's home tutor and trainer for the “Ring Battle”. Along with Dino’s right-hand man Romario, he traveled with Hibari around the country in order to train him in various environments. However, the training was not as straight-forward as it should be, as Hibari just wanted to “bite him (Dino) to death”. Nevertheless, Dino viewed him to be quite strong for his age; one of the many reasons why he was needed for Tsuna’s Family.

Awesome cosplay as well as the setting! Hibari really does look like he’s about to bite Dino and Dino doesn’t even care! Thanks to Wendy for sending this in!

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Rokudo Mukuro, Chrome Dokuro, Hibari Kyoya, and Dino Chiavarone

When the Varia, Vongola Assassin squad claimed the right for their boss Xanxus to be the true Vongola heir, they started a competition with Sawada Tsunayoshi in order to decide. To defeat the Varia, Reborn recruited  most of Tsuna’s schoolmates to become the Vongola guardians, including Hibari Kyoya, the deadly head prefect. They were later joined by Lambo and Chrome Dokuro, a girl who has a mental and physical link with the criminal, Rokudo Mokuro.

It’s pretty awesome to have cast mates when you cosplay at a huge convention like Japan’s Winter Comiket 2010. Thanks to Neil for sending this in!

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Lambo

A cow suit-clad, 5-year-old assassin from Italy, Lambo is affiliated with the Bovino Familia. He has a huge afro with horns on his head in which he stores a variety of items in including snacks and weapons. Despite being a hitman, he lacks the emotional maturity and discipline that Reborn has and is also considered to be a conceited crybaby.

That is just one of the most adorable cosplays I have seen in a long time! I think this photo belongs in the Chibi Section. Thanks to Nilo for sharing this!

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Dino Chiavarone 02

Thanks to Reborn's training, Dino made a name for himself and became known as “Haneuma Dino” which means “Bucking Horse Dino”. He managed to fix the Chiavarone’s financial problems and turned them into the third most influential family. Dino is so devoted to the family that, when none of the family members are around, his skills decrease dramatically; often accidentally hitting people with his whip and falling down the stairs.

Sounds like a fun character to be with! Thanks to Simon for sharing this!

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Chrome Dokuro 04

Having a completely antisocial life before she met Mukuro, Chrome Dokuro never opens up to anyone except the person who saved her life. Because of her nature, some people regard her with caution instead of pity. She only leans on Mukuro when she needs help, but later becomes determined to become stronger for the people she cares about.

Awesome Chrome cosplay by Swedish cosplayer, Ridoki (リドキ)! I really love her shoes in this photo. Thanks to Cupicake for suggesting this!

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Chrome Dokuro and Hibari Kyoya

When she was transferred into the future, Chrome’s physical condition became worse as her illusionary internal organs began failing one after the other. The adult Hibari Kyoya then instructed her to use the power of her Vongola Ring to sustain her organs through her own illusions. This allowed Chrome to escape any immediate danger, and thus prolonging her life.

Cosplayers Schoki and Hibanator make an excellent Chrome and Kyoya! I love the setting and Kyoya’s fierce attitude! Thanks to Itsuchi, their photographer as well as Miranda for the suggestion!

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Chrome Dokuro 02

Chrome has been shown using two of Mokuro’s six skills: creating illusions and summoning beasts to kill the enemy. She was named the holder of the Mist Ring, battling Mammon in the Vongola Tournament. When she was overwhelmed by Mammon’s powers, however, Mukuro took control and defeated him.

Beautiful cosplay! She looks just like Chrome with that kind of pose. Thanks to Millie for sending this!

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Sawada Tsunayoshi 02

A junior high school student, Tsuna is recruited as the Vongola Family’s mafia boss-in-training for being the great-great-great grandson of the first Vongola boss. He was known as “No Good Tsuna” for his poor grades, bad luck, and lack of athleticism. After Reborn shot him with the Vongola Family’s Dying Will Bullet, however, he became a powerful berserker who acts upon whatever he had regretted to make it right.

Beautiful cosplay by =oni-no-yo-na-ningen! Really love the effects of the materials she used for Tsuna’s fire. Thanks again to Katrina for sending this in!

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Dino Chiavarone

The 22-year-old, tenth generation boss of the Chiavarone Family, Dino is a fighter and a leader with exceptional skills. His main weapons, created by Reborn’s chameleon Leon, are a whip and Enzo, a turtle which grows in size and rampages when soaked in water. Like Sawada Tsunayoshi, Dino did not want anything to do with the Mafia, but became a suitable Mafia boss after Reborn became his home tutor.

Impressive cosplay by Ross Monster of Live Journal! I really love the tattoos she made for this cosplay. Thanks to Katrina for the contribution!

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Byakuran 02

The former boss of the Gesso Family, Byakuran is the incumbent leader of the Millefiore Famiy. He wishes to obtain ultimate power by gathering the Vongola Rings, Mare Rings, and Arcobaleno Pacifiers together in one place. His assassination of both the Vongola and Arcobaleno Families including their friends and allies prove that he will stop at nothing to achieve his goals. Yet despite his ruthlessness towards his enemies, he maintains a carefree nature towards his subordinates.

Pretty cool cosplay of Byakuran! It kinda makes me hungry for marshmallows now. Thanks to Namine for sending this in!

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Rokudo Mukuro

A 15-year-old Mafia criminal, Rokudo Mukuro escaped an Italian prison which held some of the most dangerous Mafia criminals when he was about to be executed. He then went to Japan with his two subordinates, enrolled in Kokuyo Junior High School and started the Kokuyo Gang. Although he plays an antagonist’s role in the first part of the series, he later possessed Chrome Dokuro and took on a more supportive role, even though he prefers not to associate with them.

~Sally-hiou is the cosplayer behind this awesome Mukuro. I love the attitude she gives the character in this photo! Awesome work! Be sure to visit her Deviant Art Gallery for more of her cosplays!

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Miura Haru

An eccentric girl who has a tendency to jump to wild conclusions, Haru used to have a crush on Reborn, but changed her mind when she was saved from drowning by Tsuna. Despite her wild habits, she attends Midori Middle School, one of the most elite schools in the area. She also loves children and tends to be overprotective of them.

Cute cosplayer! She seems like a fun character altogether and I love how she did her hair! Thanks to Chloe for sending this in!

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Sawada Tsunayoshi and Hibari Kyoya

Technically, he’s a poor student for falling asleep in class. But then again, this picture is so cute, I certainly don’t mind it.

But I have no idea what anime or game this is from. Perhaps you guys have a better idea? The coat has a significant armband on it, so that might be a clue…

EDIT: Thanks to Allenisya for commenting this is Sawada Tsunayoshi with Hibari Kyoya draping his coat over him! Aww...

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Superbi Squalo

I was trying to find the source of this picture from the clue at the bottom right corner where “kyoistheology” is written there.

Unfortunately, I came up with nothing.

The thing is, this cosplay is too generic to tell for certain. It could be Souma Ayame from Fruits Basket but I don’t remember a scene like this in the series.

Anyone have a better idea?

EDIT: Thank you, Mree, for commenting that this is Superbia Squalo from Katekyo Hitman Reborn!

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Chrome Dokuro

Chrome, or “Nagi” as she is known in her previous life, had an accident while trying to save a cat, leading to the loss of her right eye and some of her internal organs. By a chance of Fate, Rokudo Mokuro finds Chrome while he was taking a stroll in one of his illusions. He creates illusionary organs for her, allowing her to live.

I found this cosplay while going through Flickr. 大吉(Agi) is the photographer of this cosplay. Thanks for sharing the photo with us!

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Byakuran

I have no idea where this character is from, at all. I think it’s something from a more recent anime series… And I haven’t been watching any new ones lately. But maybe you guys have a better idea with the marks on the cosplayer’s face and the ring?

So pretty and white though… Lovely shot.

EDIT: Oh, the 13th Unknown on the 13th of October. Who would have thought?

EDIT 2: Thank you, Rikobaka for letting me know this is Byakuran, the First Boss and Leader of the infamous Mafia Family, Millefiore!

EDIT 3: Thanks to anon for letting us know the cosplayer's name is Naito!
