im laughing because i was going back thru my older posts and came across myself talking about this random moment in reborn and it's so insignificant but even now it's like one of the few scenes i still remember from this series
and so i kept digging and apparently i have some sort of zakuro midlife crisis every couple years
why the fuck do i keep thinking about this actual nobody
he's on 3 volume covers, gets 3 images in the novels, gets his own harem love interest and rival, defeats the protagonist, has his own elite squad he commands, i think the only thing he never got was a color page
red ice is literal satan and i don't ever want to go back there but the vindication i feel when someone is like "hey wait there are parallels here how come they never talked"
