Top 10 vento aureo characters? If not 10 then 5, no worries <3
Thank you for your question (I love these type of questions, although they are a struggle to answer)! I'll try my best not to go off-track here ...
(Spoilers for Vento Aureo)
☆ My top ten Vento Aureo characters:
1. I would easily say Bucciarati, but then again Giorno would probably be up there ... I'd say it’s a tie in between the two for first place, despite my increasing love each day for Bruno (I honestly just can’t choose)
2. MISTA MY GOAT ♡ I love Mista, I feel like he really holds the group together with his personality (who would they be without my sexy crop-top boy?) Plus, I love his stand, I don’t understand why some dislike the Pistols; not only are they adorable, but they’re quite good at what they do! And their love for food is, well, something I identify with x)
3. When thinking, I hesitated between Abbacchio and Narancia ... both are sweethearts (maybe not Abba, on second thought). I think I would have to settle with Narancia, especially after his few last words (what do you mean he never got to go to school? To eat one, final, good, pizza?)
4. Abbacchio, then, and yet I had a tough time liking him at first (his introduction scene with the teaHUMHUM), but I started loving his stand and his devotion to Bucciarati. PLUS HIS BACKSTORY, and his death, that really puts him up here in my heart.
5. Risotto. Yes. Not only because he looks hot, but his stand, hello? That is such a cool stand, his fighting scene with Doppio was absolutely mind-blowing, as well as his resolve. I felt for him, after all he lost all his teammates, and that would be the same as Bruno loosing all of his gang. His story is interesting, too, and overall I thought it was nice to see an "enemy" like him.
6. Trish, and I HATED her at first. I don’t love her now either. When she first appeared I saw her as this whining rich girl, and she honestly irritated me. But! she became stronger and was confident in defeating her own father, so I thought she was cool for that. She had a sort of redemption arc, for me at least, but I still do not adore her. I value her efforts (and her character design which I think is quite nice), but she wouldn’t be further up.
7. Fugo ... DON’T COME AT ME, PLEASE. If I had to compare him to Trish, I like him more than her. HOWEVER, he didn’t join the gang to defeat Diavolo. AND I UNDERSTAND HIM, he was sixteen, basically a child, of course he'd be terrified of a man no one knew of, who killed anyone who tried to reach him. I understand him and the fact he wasn’t there when Abba and Narancia—and even Bruno—died destroyed me entirely. I respect his decision. On the other side, considering the power of his stand, he would have been valuable and of great help against enemies. That is actually a topic I'd love to discuss, but I digress.
8. Polnareff? I know he's more of a Stardust Crusaders character, but seeing him in Vento Aureo made me feel nostalgic and happy. I missed him, to be honest. Him being the secret informer was, to me, an amazing plot twist.
9. Ghiaccio, just for his stand. I love ice skating (even if I don’t practice the sport), and seeing a representation of it made me very happy. I thank Araki for his everlasting genius.
10. Pericolo. Funky little guy. I keep wondering what he would have done once he found out Giorno defeated Diavolo and became the Don.
That’s all! I may have gotten off-track for a few, but I can’t rank without justifying :D Hopefully some agree with me here ...
