Most epic series EVER.

Reborn! is about a boy, Tsunayoshi "Tsuna" Sawada, who is chosen to become a mob boss. Tsuna unwillingly undergoes training from Reborn, a hitman from Italy. Timoteo a.k.a. "Vongola IX," the head of the Vongola Family, sent Reborn to train Tsuna; the first Vongola boss moved to Japan, and Tsuna was his great-great-great grandson; the other candidates for the position of the head of the Vongola family died. Enrico, who was the leading candidate to become "Vongola X", died in a gun battle. Massimo, the second, "sleeps with the fishes." Federico, the favored son, was found as a pile of bones. For these reasons, Tsuna is the only remaining heir.
Reborn's main instrument of choice in teaching Tsuna is the "Dying Will Bullet", which will make the person be "reborn" with a stronger self intent on fulfilling his dying will.
While it seems really lame at first, it's a really amazing series. I'm completely addicted to it. The first 60 chapters (18 episodes in the anime) are more or less "filler" with small arcs within it to set up the characters and give them some development, but after that it gets really good. It's really well-paced considering it's a Shonen Jump series. XD They've already gone through two major story arcs (Kokuyou arc and Vongola Rings arc) and are currently in the middle of a third, Future arc.
The main attraction, I think, is the fact that it's really hilarious and ridiculous at times. The main hitman in the series, Reborn, is a toddler smaller than Tsuna's head. There's also the fact that all the normal people in the series, like Tsuna's mom, his classmates, et cetera, are completely oblivious to EVERYTHING that goes on. Of course there's a coolness-factor - this series has the most original character weapons I've ever seen. Tsuna's main ability is the Dying Will flame, and he gets special gloves called X-Gloves that allow him to condense the energy from it and use it's heat to basically ruin everything. One of his family members, Gokudera, uses dynamite as a main weapon. Gokudera's sister uses poisonous food to fight. It's really neat.
Anyways, I think everyone should read this. It has the mafia and assassin babies and boys that kill people and look hot while doing it. :-3

It's so much better than the anime, and further ahead. The arc they're on right now is really neat and unique for a shounen series. [SPOILERS]
I think I will start reading the manga.
