He gets beside him his "family", his seven guardians.

Character:
Sawada Tsunayoshi ~ Tsuna's really clumsy and good for nothing boy when he's told to become a next mafia leader of Italian Vongola family. He has brown messy hair, brown big eyes and innocent face. He's really easy to scare and break into tears. His flame type is Sky.

Other important persons are: Gokudera Hayato, Yamamoto Takeshi, Sasagawa Ryohei, Hibari Kyoya, Rokudo Mukuro and Chrome Dokuro.

So what makes it good?
It must be the characters what makes this serie readable. In newest arc the plot is a litle... well, boring. But the personalities of the charactes' are just something which any other manga doesn't have. And the phrases those they repeat. Ryouhei's Kyoukuken (to the extreme), Mukuro's Kufufu and Hibari's Kamikorosu (I'll bite you to death) for example. That's why I found the serie interesting at first. To tell the truth, when I started to watch this anime at the first time, I was like "WTF is this!?" but I'm happy that I continued regardless Tsuna's weird "REEBOOORNN!" scream while running in boxers. x'D The plot became more interesting when the Future arc started and Tsuna became more badass. This manga/anime is really Must Read!

WARNING! Contains spoilers so watchin at your own risk! 

Still I thought this one would be fitting trailer for this serie. If you're not sure about my explanation, this trailer should be enough to percuade you. =) Though this is about the anime. It's cool too!

Unfortunately Yuka is strong willed girl and refuses till the end. 

Extra is some little stories at the end of volumes. 

Characters: 

Satou Yuka ~ She's a strong and stubborn 16-years-old girl with black short hair and big eyes (which are common for shoujo girls). She goes to all-girls-high school where her new big brother is teaching. 

Satou Taichi ~ He's Yuka's new big brother with incredible sister complex. He's a little subid and childish and always cousing troubles for Yuka. Even though he is really gentle person and doesn't want to hurt anyone. But only those who dare to come close to his cute little sister. 

And many many other characters, but I'll tell only about main pairs. 

So what makes it good?

The plot of the story is really funny. That's one of the strong points of this serie. You can find humor almost every page and it's good to read when you need something light without serious angsty teenage love problems. It's pretty easy going but still takes readers attached to it. Female lead character is also very special. She's not typical always crying cute and small girl but very strong willed one. That's good that there's also this gind of girls in shoujo manga. And this isn't also one of those "way too quick" mangas. The story is proggressing slow enough but still not too slow to get bored. The pace is just fine.
