Title: Quicksand
Focus: Hibari Kyoya from Katekyo Hitman REBORN!
Owner: Chrizta (midnightsabre)

You should visit this shrine because...: Despite having a slew of devoted fans, the REBORN! series doesn't have many related character shrines online. This is quite a shame because this energetic shounen romp has an impressive cast, all of whom deserve some solid recognition. Luckily there are people like Chrizta out there who are willing to work hard on a shrine to one of the more mysterious and unpredictable members of the REBORN! cast, Hibari Kyoya. "Quicksand" is easy on the eyes and an absolute dream to navigate - organized, well-formatted and eloquently paced. As Hibari is an enigmatic character, quite a few elements of his history and persona remain a mystery to readers of the series. Chrizta doesn't let this slow her down and instead addresses the elements available in deft style. Her writing is very accessible and should make digesting points on Hibari's character quite easy, even for those with only limited knowledge of the series. Multimedia is very limited and unfortunately restricted to content already available elsewhere, but the written portion of "Quicksand" certainly packs a punch. There is always room for expansion here as well, given that REBORN! is an ongoing series. With any luck, there is a bright future ahead for this enjoyable shrine and its popular focal point.
Highlight: "Vongola" which focuses on Hibari's relationships (or lack thereof) with other Vongola members and the impact these relationships have on his character direction.
