"Monster Reborn" cannot be used to Special Summon "Rainbow Dark Dragon" from the Graveyard even if the monster was Special Summoned following the conditions on the card before being sent to the Graveyard.
That's because it has the text "cannot be special summoned except by", meaning the listed text is the only way it can ever be summoned.
This is not to be confused with monsters like Chaos Sorcerer, who says "can only be special summoned by...". These monsters are the ones that can be revived from the graveyard, but only if properly summoned first by their listed method.

Could opponent monster reborn your fusion monster?
Yes, as long as the Fusion Monster had been successfully Fusion Summoned before going to the graveyard, and does not have the phrase 'cannot be special summoned except' like Dark Paladin.
Can 'Blue Eyes Shining Dragon' be brought back with 'Monster Reborn'?
No. Special summonable monsters will fall into two categories. Those that say "cannot be special summoned except by" and "Can only be special summoned by" - Synchro, Fusion, XYZ monster belong to the latter category unless their text indicates otherwise (Dark Paladin).The former group can't be special summoned by anything other than the text on their card. For the latter group, if they are special summoned 'properly' first, and then destroyed, they can be revived by cards like Monster Reborn. Even if the former are summoned properly, they can't be resummoned by Monster Reborn.Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon falls into the first category. The only way it can reach the field is from hand, by tributing a Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon you control.
Can black luster soldier - envoy of the beginning be special summon from the graveyard?
Initially, a monster who can only be special summoned, may only reach the field by following the method on its card - unless an effect specifically states otherwise. As for reviving them from the graveyard, there are two subsets of special summon-only monsters. They are; "Can only be Special Summoned by..." If this kind of monster is properly special summoned by the listed method, you can bring it back with cards like Monster Reborn. The two Envoys belong to this group, as do all Rituals, Fusions and Synchros by default, except for a few who have text that include them in the second group below. "Cannot be Special Summoned except by..." Even if this monster is properly special summoned by the listed method, it can't be brought back by cards like Monster Reborn. Dark Armed Dragon and Judgment Dragon are examples of this kind, as do a few Rituals, Fusions or Synchros, like Dark Paladin, who cannot be special summoned except by Fusion Summon. Lastly, again unless specificaly stated otherwise, the card's special summon requirements are from the hand only. You cannot remove a Light and Dark monster to special summon the Envoys from the graveyard, they can only be special summoned this way while in hand. However on the plus side, if they were properly special summoned, you can bring them back with Monster Reborn, and they do not need another Light and Dark monster to be removed when you do this.
