Pandora Hearts




Oz Bezarius, heir to one of the duke houses, has just turned fifteen. His life is rich and carefree, darkened only by the constant absence of his father. At his coming-of-age ceremony, however, everything changes. For no reason that he can discern, he's cast into the prison known as the "Abyss", only to be saved by a "chain" known as Alice, the bloodstained black rabbit. Why was he cast into Abyss, how does Alice factor into it all, and what does the organization known as "Pandora" want with him...?

Kamichama Karin is often considered a parody of the mahou shōjo (magical girl) genre. Examples include battle cries (which, on page 183 in volume 1, Koge Donbo admits the point of Karin's "I am God" was to have her say something stupid and how the manga started was as a gag).. Kamichama Karin was originally going to be a two chapter one-shot manga, according to Koge-Donbo.. Due to its unexpected popularity, she continued the story..

Characters


Karin Hanazono (花園 花鈴 Hanazono Karin)
Karin is the protagonist of the series. Her parents passed away when she was still young and she was brought up by her aunt. Having no talent in studies and sports she is always scolded by her aunt. During those times her cat Shi-chan was a pillar of support but a few months prior to the beginning of the story, Shi-chan had died. Karin moved in with Kazune and Himeka after they found out about her goddess powers.
She is an outgoing person, and sticks up for her friends. Her mother's ring allows her to borrow godly power. Her ring is pink and has the power of the goddess Athena (Aphrodite in Chu). Later on, she realizes she has a crush on Kazune, but she knows Himeka loves him and is convinced that her feelings are only one sided. Near the end of the series, she realizes that she is in love with Kazune. She sees a picture Himeka and Kazune each have of their parents, which are the same. Karin happens to have one exactly like them of her parents.
From the last episode of Kamichama Karin, it seemed like that Karin's memories were locked inside her Athena ring, when it was destroyed during the battle with Karasuma Kirihiko, her memories of her old self were revealed.
She is actually Professor Kujyou's wife in the anime and in the manga, Suzuka Kujyou, and his test subject. (Her age was reversed and she was returned to being a baby with all her memories whiped out, but she slowly regains them at the end of series).
Her name literally means "The Flower Bell of the Flower Garden," with the "Flower Garden" as her family name and "Flower Bell" as her first name. She has a fondness for eel bread.
Kazune Kujyou (九条 和音 Kujō Kazune)
The main male protagonist. Kazune is the clone of Himeka's dead father Kazuto Kujyou. He is the sun god (Apollo), and is extremely powerful. While Himeka loves bugs, Kazune hates them, partly due to his fear of them. He is a very straight forward person. He is in love with Karin as she is his wife. Kazune can act very feminine as shown when Himeka and Karin was going on a girls day out, he decided to follow. While on the shopping trip Karin and Himeka manipulated him to carry their bags, at the cafe Kazune was going to order ice-cream but decided not to as Karin and Himeka said that they were going to pick it as it would make any girl happy. At the end all three of them go to the movies, Himeka and Karin choosing a very sad, yet stupid love movie which left Kazune in tears.Also in Chu you find out that Kazune has another personality: "H-mode" which is when he is much more flirtatious, and also drunk.
His ring has the power of the god Apollo. But in Chu, he has the power of Uranus.Unlike Karin, his body is incomplete. Which explains the reason for collasping after transforming.

Katekyo Hitman Reborn~ Ciaosu


Reborn! is about a boy, Tsunayoshi "Tsuna" Sawada, who is chosen to become a Mafia Boss. Tsuna unwillingly undergoes training from Reborn, a hitman from Italy. Timoteo a.k.a. "Vongola IX," the head of the Vongola Family, sent Reborn to train Tsuna; the first Vongola boss moved to Japan, and Tsuna was his great-great-great grandson; the other candidates for the position of the head of the Vongola family died. Enrico, who was the leading candidate to become "Vongola X", died in a gun battle. Massimo, the second, "sleeps with the fishes." Federico, the favored son, was found as a pile of bones. For these reasons, Tsuna is the only remaining heir.

Reborn's main instrument of choice in teaching Tsuna is the "Dying Will Bullet" ("Deathperation Shot" in the English versions), which will make the person be "reborn" with a stronger self intent on fulfilling his dying will.
