[Video description: An anime music video I made of Katekyo Hitman Reborn. It's set to the song "Rise" by Katy Perry. It's a battle AMV focused on the Vongola tenth generation, covering the Kokuyo and Varia arcs. It shows them struggling to come out on top of their fights by relying on each other and for each other, despite how it first appears as if they're losing. /End video description]

[ID copied from alt-text: gifs from the manga Katekyo Hitman Reborn. A short interactive story from Tsuna's point of view is written on them. Some words are in red instead of black, as well as the options chosen.

1: The knight's depicted as Reborn and the king as Vongola Nono. The text reads, "The court is celebrating the (in red) Knight's (end red) return. The (in red) King (end red) demands you entertain the crowd." The last panel shows Reborn pointing his gun at Tsuna. The text reads, "> SING A SONG ABOUT GLORY (option chosen) / > RECITE AN EPIC POEM / > REFUSE TO PERFORM".

2: Tsuna takes in the words Reborn tells him, while it's Reborn who takes in Tsuna's words in the next panel. The text reads, respectively, "The (in red) Knight (end red) stops you in the hall to praise your performance. / The (in red) welcome home (end red) has lifted his heavy spirit and soothed his tired limbs." The last panel shows Reborn pointing his gun at Tsuna, and Tsuna who's been shot by his bullet. The text reads, "> THANK HIM (option chosen) / > OFFER TO PERFORM AGAIN / > AVERT YOUR EYES FROM HIS GLEAMING SWORD".

3: Iemitsu kisses Vongola Nono's hand in the throne room. "The (in red) King (end red) is sleeping in his Royal chambers." Vongola Nono presses his finger against Tsuna's forehead, the flame on his finger flickering off, while Tsuna's crying. "A fresh nightly breeze blows in from the (in red) window (end red)." Vongola Nono holds Tsuna in his lap back when he was a child. "> GO BACK TO YOUR BEDROOM (option chosen) / > LOOK OUT FROM THE WINDOW TO THE CITY BELOW / > KILL HIM".

4: Vongola Nono welcomes Tsuna while taking care of plants. "You have been (in red) summoned (end red) for a private performance." Tsuna and Vongola Nono walk towards each other for the Inheritance Ceremony. "The (in red) King (end red), who so loves the theater, wants a monologue." The last panel is of Talbot bringing the new form of the Vongola rings. "> A PRINCE'S ADDRESS (option chosen) / > A LOVER'S LAMENT / > A MADMAN'S RAMBLINGS".

5: Tsuna consciously lights his ring for the first time during the future arc. "A faint hum is coming from the maid's (in red) mirror (end red)." Tsuna, Reborn, I-Pin and Lambo appear behind Nana after being sent back to the past. "It sounds like your mother's voice, beckoning you (in red) home (end red)." Ten Years Later Tsuna stands next to his coffin, where Present Tsuna left his notebook on top of it. "> BREAK THE MIRROR / > REMEMBER HOME / > HOME? I HAVE ALWAYS LIVED IN THE CASTLE (option chosen)".

6: Tsuna faces the Vongola bosses during the Vongola Trial, with the focus on Vongola Nono. "The (in red) King (end red) is sleeping in his Royal chambers." The Vongola bosses disappear in flames around Tsuna. "You can hardly (in red) hear (end red) him breathe." Tsuna breaks out of the Roll sphere. "> GO BACK TO YOUR BEDROOM (option chosen) / > KILL HIM / > KILL HIM".

7: The text's written alongside glitching panels of Tsuna and the tenth generation together, being happy. "The (in red) paintings (end red) in the Great Hall are so beautiful. / The landscapes (in red) remind (end red) you of a life you might have lived." The last panel shows a smiling Tsuna looking at the lucky charm Kyoko made for him at the end of the Varia arc. It's also glitching. "> SNUFF OUT THE CANDLE / > LOOK AT THE ROYAL PORTRAITS INSTEAD (option chosen) / > REMEMBER HOME".

8: Tsuna falls on the floor after being hit by Byakuran's arrow. "You've already had this (in red) dream (end red) before." Present Tsuna opens the coffin of his future self he appeared in. "It's okay, it doesn't (in red) hurt (end red) anymore." A panel of the tenth generation, smiling and calling out to Tsuna, glitches as it appears and glitches again as it disappears. "> WAKE UP (option chosen) / > GO HOME / > FOR GOD'S SAKE GO HOME".

9: Primo hovers over Tsuna after coming out of the ring, with the Vongola emblem shining between their gloves. "The King is (in red) sleeping (end red) in his Royal chambers." Vongola Nono asks Tsuna to reconsider whether to become Vongola Decimo. "Has he ever looked so (in red) small (end red)?"

10: The text is the same for all three panels, separating Tsuna from the opposing character. They glitch as one panel gives way to the next one.

Tsuna opposes Primo, both panels taken from the Vongola Trial, both showing their respective gloves. Primo's face's scratched out in white. In the next panel, Tsuna opposes Vongola Nono as they're about to start the Inheritance Ceremony. Vongola Nono's face's scratched out in white. In the last panel, he opposes Reborn as he asks him whether he'll become Vongola Decimo at the end of the manga. Instead of Reborn, the panel glitches again to scratch out the text in white.

The text reads, "> KILL HIM (option chosen) / > KILL HIM / > KILL HIM". /End ID]

There is no universe in which Sawada Tsunayoshi becoming Vongola Decimo brings him happiness.

> FREE HIM > REMIND HIM OF ALL THE PEOPLE HE LOVES HE'LL LEAVE BEHIND > REMIND HIM OF HOW LONELY HE WAS BEFORE
