Battle between the Worlds' Strongest Hitmen - Wine and Rebirth

[Aix]

So we come here today to compare the two "World's Strongest Hitman" from two series whose names both end with an exclamation mark. On one side, we have Reborn, the Arcobaleno from Katekyo Hitman Reborn! and pitted against him we have Vino, the Rail Tracer from Baccano! To make things fair, let's look at them without Reborn's powers with Flames and Reborn as an adult. This may be a hard choice as neither have really revealed their full power, but compare them anyway.

[hr]Reborn

Wielding the shapeshifting chameleon to transform into a multitude of different weapons. A pretty cool and impressive guy.

[hr]Vino

An absolute crazy bastard. No one in the anime even comes close to his level in fighting power. Despite Baccano! being pretty realistic in terms of fighting, this guy dodges bullets with ease and can dodge or block stuff he isn't even looking at.

[Shradow]

I've never seen Baccano and am a bit biased, so of course I'll say Reborn.

 

He casually kicked the collective butts of the group of protagonists in his baby form once, so I can assume his adult form is even more kickass.

 

And if what you say about Baccano's fights being fairly realistic is true, then he probably won't win, since KHR is your standard "crazy powerful shonen hero" kinda anime, and Reborn is one of the strongest characters in the series, if not the strongest.

If you know me...you know what my answer is: the motherfreakin' home tutor Reborn!!! B)

 

Why?? Lets run it down, shall we?

 

1. Actually dresses like a hitman. Hard to find one that actually does, and he makes the fedora look awesome! <- Reason I wear one =3

2. Without the transformation into an Arcobaleno (baby), in which he got his chameleon and flame power, he was already one of the seven greatest hitmen that was on the Earth. That doesn't need anymore explanation.

3. The sideburns...sure it doesn't really give a hitman look, BUT...in the manga, it happened to be popular with a few ladies (the 1st Sky Arcobaleno to be precise).

4. The catchphrase: "Chaos". Need I say more on the fact that it sounds pretty awesome B)

 

So my obvious choice: Reborn!!

Well, fairly realistic as in no Zoro-esque throwing buildings at people => Baccano! has people who can cut shotgun shells with a small knife and people who can catch shotgun shells with a wrench as well as smash a crater in the ground with said wrench. I suppose it's not that realistic. But even guys who do that don't stand a chance against Vino, he's just too agile and fast and he walks right up to them with no sense of danger. He dodges all their attacks with minimal movement and goes far to show off his superiority.

[spoiler='Baccano! Spoilers']1. Vino dresses in a trenchcoat when he's off-duty. Working, he is soaked from head to toe in blood that people mistake him for some crimson monster, thus starting the legend of the Rail Tracer. Quite a unique attire, huh?

2. Vino is Baccano!'s strongest person, coming equal in strength to an immortal demon with the ability to manifest things out of thin air. He is known as the Legendary Assassin Vino and strikes fear into the hearts of anyone who knows his reputation.

3. Vino has someone he's in love with. He no need any other women.

4. "I am a man who will never die!" "Mercy and compassion is a privilege only the strong can have, and I am strong!"[/spoiler]

 

Even a 200-year-old immortal who went through extreme torture before (such as having red-hot pokers stabbed into both eyes) ran away from him screaming when he comes by. Immortals in Baccano cannot die, they regenerate no matter what.

Hm, then I still don't think he can win. I'm almost positive Reborn is stronger than Tsuna, and we know the manner of things Tsuna does.

[Aix]

Apparently he's on par with an immortal demon in the series who can manifest anything, including the Elixir of Immortality, out of nowhere, but, yeah, there really isn't enough info on the two of them to compare them properly.

I say Reborn wins because of his sideburns, then.
