i kinda get what you’re saying about it being bullshit, but that would kinda mean any win of the vongola’s during the ring battle would be bullshit. like all of the varia are trained professionals, and all of the vongola are just dumb kids that barely know how to use their abilities (besides 20yl!lambo who could only be there a certain amount of time and mukuro who has an undetermined amount of time training with illusions). (hope this doesn’t come off as hate just like talking 😅)
Ah don’t worry, I appreciate your thoughts on it!
So yeah, if we go by logic as I mentioned at the end of my previous answer, Varia would have won. But it is anime/manga logic so let’s stretch things a bit.
Let’s take a little look at Ryohei vs. Lussuria.Why I think it’s believable... a big stretch, but still kind of believable (if we wanna go by manga/anime logic for the sake of the plot): Ryohei trained since his early childhood. He’s boxing for several years. And with the training he received from Colonello, I can justify his win.
Lambo vs. Levi Here’s where I think Amano-sensei screwed up a bit. Bcs I think this should be another win vor the kids. But only because of 20yl!Lambo. I know it was a 5 minute time limit, in which I believe some minutes where used up for Teen Lambo... But it could have ended smoothly with 20yl!Lambo giving the finishing blow and then switching back. In that case Varia wouldn’t get the Sky Ring, because Tsuna wouldn’t be required to step in and safe Lambo.Imo it would matter, the Ring conflict would still be going on, since it where only 2 battles so far.
Gokudera vs. BelphegorHonestly? Nothing to complain about. Played out was expected and needed. Bel is a genius, it would be weird if he got defeated. And Gokudera had still much of character develpoment to go and this was his first step. Sacrificing the win (the ring) for his friends and staying alive. Bcs this was also a big point: Staying alive!
Let’s skip the Yamamoto vs. Squalo match bcs I already explained that xD
Mukuro/Chrome vs. MammonOh dear, I am still so indecisive on this match. But I give it a fair go. Yes Mammon is an Arcobaleno, so supposedly one of the strongest hitman on earth (or wahtever still have to wrap my head around the whole Arcobaleno thing again). But we don’t know the full extent of Mukuros powers. So it might be true that he is on par with Mammon.I’ll give this match also a fair go.
Hibari vs. Gola Mosca I actually don’t have anything to complain. First of all: the Mosca is a machine. And second of all: We talk here about Hibari!
Finally Tsuna vs. XanxusI haven’t rewatched it yet. I ended my rewatch yesterday at the Hibari vs. GM fight... So I can’t say anything for sure on this one. But if my memory doesn’t deceive me, I didn’t really have anything to complain about it.
And I feel like I have to repeat myself: This is all my opinion. And like I said we are going by anime/manga logic so some things need to be stretched a bit for plot sake. Main character plot armor xDDear Anon at this point I want to thanky you for your input :D I really enjoy it ♥

About the last bit with Davis red eye... Here's the text from the Artbook.
And it is actually really written, that he's nearly turned. That's why his one eye is red. (Don't quote me on that translation, i'm too tired to look up properly)
Last night ago, I purchased Code Vein on the PC and installed a few mods. Because of this I’m able to see what the characters look like without their masks on. It’s been interesting to see, and unintentionally hilarious cause literally no one has lip-syncing in cut-scenes that require them to wear one.
But one thing I thought was interesting was the chance I got to see what Oliver Collins looked like under his mask. And more in turn, what he looks like after he turns into a fresh Lost. He has veins all over his face and neck and the sclera of his left eye is blackened. There’s a growth coming out of his head where the veins stop as they move from left to right.
(The blank face doesn’t mean anything, he has no facial animations).
Another thing I noticed is that in game play, Oliver has green eyes, but red eyes in cutscenes:
However, this changes after his mask is damaged, and the model switches to the red eyed one:
Something I feel the need to point out is that the majority of NPCs have red eyes under their masks. It’s likely because we aren’t meant to see what they look like under them and it’s simply a default placeholder, but I do find it interesting that the team went out of their way to give Oliver a unique eye color during gameplay only to just throw it out the window later.
Character’s eyes in Code Vein glow red whenever they are using their blood veil and powers, but they also turn red when they start losing themselves to frenzy. Lost also have red eyes. Other characters that have red eyes include Louis, Karen, and Cruz but I doubt it means anything, especially given Cruz’ eyes were red before she frenzied and turned blue later.
It’s far more likely that some revenants just wake up having red eyes, probably to tie into the vampire theme the game is going for. There was something going around earlier that the art book says the reason Davis has one red eye is that he almost turned, but as of now there doesn’t seem to be any hard evidence that text exists. I’m hopeful there will be more details about the significance of red eyes, if there is anything deepeer to it, in Code Vein in the future.
Say hello to my little Varia collection.
I am so happy I got the full set (happy i decided to go back a second time to buy more of this mystery box) worth every Yen I spend on it xD
Maybe i'll show more merch later which i gathered here in Japan 👌
Just sketch of my OC Artemis, after a certain incident. Her right eye was damaged and now she's blind on that eye. Additionally she suffers from PTSD, but nearly noone knows about it. She keeps it a secret.
Finally found time to do another chibi sketch...
third OC for my planned story - Camille.
She represents the green fire/phoenix in this. Camille is kind-hearted and is proud to be chosen. At the beginning she thought it will somehow turn out and they will find the others who settled "outside". But after some days she realizes that the the others, mostly Hanon, are right: It was all a big lie.
Camille is specialized in Herbology (Herbalism... whatever), mostly medicinal herbs.
