Reborn is a small infant. He is slightly tanned with black spiky hair and thin curly sideburns. His main outfit is an all black suit, with a red long-sleeved shirt and black necktie from underneath, and a black fedora with an orange stripe, his fedora seems to contain all of his hair. He is always seen with his pet chameleon Leon, on the brim of his hat, along with his [[Sun Flame|Sun]] [[Arcobaleno Pacifier]]. After his curse is lifted Reborn loses his pacifier, however, he compensates with a replica pacifier since he could not be at ease without one.

Reborn's true form is a tall and lean man. He wears a yellow long-sleeved shirt instead, and his blazer is changed to a waistcoat in some promotional images. Sometimes, his shadow is in the shape of his original adult form, such as when he first shows up to train [[Dino]] or [[Takeshi Yamamoto]].
Reborn has also worn many various [[Reborn Costumes|costumes]] that vary in design and creativity, which are often very easily able to trick others into believing that he's a different person, except for Tsuna who can easily see through his costumes.

=== Personality ===
 
Among all the Arcobaleno, he is said to be the strongest. It was revealed in a flashback that Reborn initially showed anger towards the [[Arcobaleno Curse|Arcobaleno curse]]; however, after a period of exile, he came to accept it, asking Shamal to "erase" his old self. As an Arcobaleno, he remains fairly calm through any situation and always putting a straight face, even in his "fights" against Colonnello. He also is rather sadistic and likes to occasionally tease his students, much to both [[Dino|Dino's]] and Tsuna's dismay. He did, however, admit to have snapped when Timoteo was revealed to be in [[Gola Moska]] during the [[Varia Arc]], and was also shown to be enraged when he could only helplessly watch as Tsuna was being beaten up by [[Demon Spade]].

Reborn

Reborn is the eponymous character of the Katekyo Hitman Reborn! series. He was sent by the Vongola Nono to train Tsunayoshi Sawada to be the next boss of the Vongola Famiglia. Though appearing to be a baby, Reborn holds the title of the world's strongest hitman. He is often seen with his pet chameleon Leon.

Appearance

Adult Reborn bunko 21 cover

Reborn from Volume 21 of the bunko edition.

Reborn is a small infant with dark eyes. He is slightly tanned with black spiky hair and thin curly sideburns. His main outfit is an all black suit, with a red long-sleeved shirt, a black necktie, and a black fedora with an orange stripe. Leon is usually seen resting on the brim of his hat.

Like all Arcobaleno, Reborn has the Yellow Arcobaleno Pacifier on his chest. After his curse is lifted, Reborn loses the pacifier, however, he compensates with a replica pacifier since he could not be at ease without one.[4]

Reborn's true form is a tall and lean man. He wears a yellow long-sleeved shirt instead, and his blazer is changed to a waistcoat in some promotional images. Sometimes, his shadow is in the shape of his original adult form, such as when he first shows up to train Dino or Takeshi Yamamoto.

Reborn has also worn numerous costumes that vary in design and creativity. The costumes are realistic enough to either blend into the surroundings or to disguise into another person entirely.

Personality

There's no time. Just do what he says for now. If he's lying, then we'll just blow his brains out.

Reborn about "Uncle Kawahira", Chapter 259

Confident and unpredictable, Reborn proudly declares his status as the strongest hitman. He remains calm throughout any situation and always puts on a poker face. 

While he rarely displays genuine anger, he's admitted to having snapped when the Gola Moska was revealed to be carrying Timoteo. He was also enraged when he could only helplessly watch as Tsuna was being beaten up by Demon Spade. Reborn's temper is formidable and intimidating enough that even the normally impassive Cervello has expressed apprehension in response to it.

Reborn Smiles

Reborn's sly smile.

Reborn is normally mischievous and rather sadistic, earning the "Spartan tutor" nickname from Tsuna. He enjoys pulling pranks, teasing his students, and generally sowing chaos for his own amusement. He also enjoys cosplaying and dressing up for dramatic effect, especially to cause a reaction. Despite his playfulness, as Tsuna's tutor, most of the things he does is for his student's sake. Reborn teaches what he can to make Tsuna a splendid boss.

He's also shown a subtle deterministic side that was only hinted at through the series and it was not until the end that Reborn expressed the extent of his fatalistic thinking.[5] It was revealed in a flashback that Reborn initially showed great anger towards the Arcobaleno Curse. However, after a period of wandering, he came to accept it, and asked Shamal to erase his personal history.[1] Afterwards, he believed that dying as an Arcobaleno was inevitable, and was even resigned to becoming a member of the Vindice, until Tsuna convinced him to fight for otherwise.[5][6]
