There's a tumblr post with a ton of KHR facts taken from the manga volumes: http://mentaldespot.tumblr.com/post/2347780156/from-the-khr-trivia-thread-posted-by-user-asarii
(metaphand, you might want to take a look at that post so as to be amazed and astounded by revelations on Xanxus. so inexplicable
(also hilarious.)
As a reward after his fight with Mukuro, Tsuna has been eating the 100 years supply of tomatoes every single day. [Volume 11]
HA. I forgot about the tomatoes! #1 proof that the Ninth is heading for senility. Or that he's a jerk. Or both. Sure, the tomatoes gag was during a crack part of the arc, but there are many crack elements that have become part of the more serious business...
Ryohei and Kyoko used to introduce themselves as "Sasagawa Sibling #1!" (Ryohei) and "Sasagawa Sibling #2!" (Kyoko).
No shut up how can you be so cute. So cute!
To be a Varia, you have to speak a minimum of seven languages. The majority of the Vongola can speak Japanese because of Primo. [Volume 13]
And I always figured that the rest of the Mafia more or less had to learn Japanese because of that. Since the Vongola is so powerful, you'd want to be in on whatever they were saying.
Tsuna owns 10 and rents 3 CDs. (You can rent CDs in Japan.) His favourite genre is retro J-pop, and he recently bought a classical album that was only 500 yen. [Volume 16]
So Tsuna's into like, 80s-90s music? I find this unspeakably adorable. Not cool old school, not new enough to be up to date: just Loser Tsuna, bopping to crappy pop. Although the classical album - does that mean classical J-pop, or is he trying to get where Gokudera's coming from with the classical piano thing?
Bel joined the Varia because he was bored. [Volume 17]
HAHAHA. Best reason!
Nana was planning to send Futa to Namimori Elementary School but he doesn't want to go. [Volume 18]
I always wondered about Futa's schooling. You'd think the authorities would start wondering what was going on there.
Chrome's monthly allowance is 500 yen. However, money for the public bath is free (courtesy of Chikusa). [Volume 18]
So he always gives her money for the public bath? Or he sneaks her into the public bath? Either way, thank goodness. Although it still doesn't explain what the Kokuyo crew do for toilets.
None of the Varia has had an actual conversation with Xanxus. Except for Levi. [Volume 19]
HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA, oh god, ahahaha, oh my god. Not even Squalo? I'm going to assume this includes Squalo. "Hello, you look really angry so I'm going to follow you." "grunt" "So angry! I dig it." Rinse-repeat for OVER A DECADE
And Levi. Levi! WHY LEVI? (Dear self: stop finding that hot) (I can't)
Tsuna's hair has been unkempt since birth. He tried using conditioner but with no avail. [Volume 20]
Precious. He probably started trying out conditioner when people at school started calling him a Saiyan.
Birds can tell the Twins apart. [Volume 22]
Aaww?! (Is it cute, or are they still just plain creepy?)
Secondo was the one who made Vongola powerful. [Volume 23]
WHAT! WHAT
Okay that is pretty awesome, especially with Spade's influence, and now I really, really, really hope that we get to see some Secondo + Primo. There should be an entire arc set then. *PINES*
Daniela was a tomboy and "fought like Athena" according to Giannini. [Volume 23]
:D :D :D Goddess of wisdom and war aww yeah, excellent reference there. (But why would Giannini know? He's not that old, you'd think he'd at least say he heard about Daniela from his dad.)
There are quite a lot of variations of the Varia uniform. Levi thinks Xanxus is a fashionable guy. [Volume 23]
Then explain the roadkill, Levi. The feathers are pretty and a really interesting touch to the character, but the racoon tail... New headcanon, by the way: This is why Xanxus recruited Lussuria, so that there would always be someone to take care of the fashion side of business. Gotta represent.
I-Pin has no ear but she senses hearing from somewhere around her forehead. [Volume 23]
pfffft
At its longest, Kusakabe's hair was 1.27 meters when he first entered Namimori Middle School. His hair gets shorter each year. [Volume 23]
Oh, KHR. Only you.
Bel can't reveal his national origin because the UN and other nations will be in havoc. For this reason he hides his eyes. [Volume 24]
Pity, the "Rasiel carved the bejeezus out of his face" theory was much cooler.
Fran was forced into joining the Varia; he got abducted by Squalo and Bel. [Volume 25]
One of my favourite pieces of KHR trivia forever.
Spanner is British and was raised in Italy by his grandfather who was also a mechanic. They both shared a love for Japan. [Volume 28]
I had Australian Spanner in my head. However, Spanner + loving granddad is cool.
M.M lives a lavish life in Paris. [Volume 28]
hell yeah
Shouichi is a huge fanboy of the band, Blood & Peppers. Music got him through the tough times while he was in the Millefiore. [Volume 29]
♥
Gokudera's mother's name is Lavina. [Volume 29]
Oh, good, more confirmation for that name. Someone said this in hitman_reborn, but then I saw people elsewhere who thought the name was something else entirely.
Skull has a durable body. He hates math. [Volume 30]
1. Oh well sure, those facts go perfectly well together. (Maybe they were separate in the manga, and the OP just put them together?) 2. I could be Skull.
Fon maybe, perhaps, probably knows Hibari. [Volume 31]
OH THANKS
THAT CLEARS IT UP.
