Massive W for being a fugonara shipper

(It was brought to my attention that W means ‘win’, It was a bit unclear;; but thank you very much~~

have a rant

We start of with the opening scene of the boys. And let me just address the elephant in the room right away:

is this an okay thing for Fugo to do? No :) But does it define his entire personality? NO :)))

People always misinterpret this scene. Yes, he is sticking his fork in his friend's cheek, yes it is to establish that he is an unstable and bipolar character.

however, people often fail to see the full context.

Narancia was complaining that he didn't feel like studying. You know, in the way students complain more often. And Fugo replied to him in a sweet and encouraging way, giving him compliments and showing him that he has already gotten very far as he is now.

(the literal translation if this line is 'If it's you, you can do it.')

also, from this line, we can conclude that it was in fact Narancia who asked Fugo to teach him, not the other way around. If it was something so unpleasant, he wouldn't have asked Fugo about it.

So Fugo was trying very hard for him, trying to keep it at Narancia’s level. And I’d also just like to point out that Fugo asked him to solve ONE problem, and then it would be over. He didn’t assign him a row of different sums to solve. Just one.

if you look at the sideline, Narancia was already making stupid little doodles, having lost his attention span. Narancia really just didn’t bother thinking of a proper answer.

from the intonation Narancia is using in Japanese, it’s very clear that he’s provoking Fugo. He knows it’s not correct, he’s just trying to annoy him.

Fugo was already annoyed with Mista too, so even if it’s exaggerated, it’s not strange that Fugo got upset about it. He had tried his best to use a kind and gentle approach, but clearly that didn’t work.

so yeah. Fugo had ground for saying this.

Then, people are always all ‘uwu, Narancia innocent baby boy.’

Please give the boy some credit, damn. Yes, he’s cute and spunky. But if he wanted to gut Fugo, he would. The boy is feral.

And most importantly: anti’s always ignore the scene after it.

this scene is just..... so absolutely brilliant. Because it conveys 2 things at the same time: 1. They both apologize instantly. Just look at how tenderly Fugo is reaching for Narancia’s face(/shoulder in the manga), and Nara for Fugo’s hand. It just shows how they’re 2 messy teenagers who fight and make up. 2. they INSTANTLY and SIMULTANIOUSLY decided to fucking ignore Giorno. Just straight up in his face went like ‘nope. Time to be brats.’ They were so in sync about it too.

mother is not pleased~

Also considering this entire introduction scene. It was written out to bring across that all 4 of them at the table are FUCKING SHITS.

They are a group of terrible degenerates. That’s the entire stick! So why the fuck complain that Fugo is being mean to Narancia as if they’re not all equally terrible towards one another??? They’re teenagers! They mess with one another! That’s a thing!

And aside from that, they are in the mafia! And as much as I also dislike how people make Bucciarati the milf mom of the group, people just don’t understand how crime organizations work. if you don’t give one another some tough love, your buddy may very well be dead in no time.

The moments Fugo gets upset with Narancia is at moments where Narancia is being careless. For Fugo, who is a senior in this kind of lifestyle, he is warning Narancia the hard way. Because if he’s not harsh with Narancia, Narancia will find himself dead in the gutter. You wouldn’t survive that kind of lifestyle if you dote on one another and be overly kind and polite. That’s not the kind of relationship ANY of them have with one another! They’re all trying to SURVIVE in this world of crime and know that it’s better to punch one another, if it means they won’t get punched by someone who thinks less favorable of them.

If Narancia would have shown disrespect to a Capo less lenient that mr Pericole, it could have meant his death. If Narancia would be followed to the vineyard, they’d all be dead. Fugo’s aggression doesn’t sprout from anger: it sprouts from worry.

Because we see him worry and care for Narancia in particular a lot.

and it’s undeniable that there’s a lot of trust between the 2, often turning towards one another for assistance.

And there’s a connection. I can only describe it as fate. The moment Fugo saw Narancia, he felt the need to help him. Even thought that highly contradicts everything we know about Fugo, all the more when he was younger. He’s not the type who selflessly reach out a hand, yet with Narancia he did.

The way how Fugo shouted that Narancia needs some spaghetti was hilarious. But the thought behind it is just so beautiful. Narancia looked all dirty, in rags, starved. He probably didn’t want anyone to see him. Yet Fugo SHOUTED. That boldness that the other had the right to stand there proudly might have had an even bigger impact on Narancia than just getting a free meal.

He walks in all hunched and small, but once Fugo shouts, he stands up straight.

Also, in PHF, Fugo gets upset with the restaurant owner for looking down on Narancia.

Also, considering Bucciarati didn’t want Narancia to join and just getting to meet Polpo isn’t something an outsider could do, it’s inefitable that Fugo was the one who referenced Narancia. Narancia couldn’t have joined if not for Fugo.

If we look at Fugo’s background, I think it’s not far-fetched to say the boy knew absolutely NOTHING of modern pop culture and music and dancing. So then HOW THE HELL was HE part of the Torture Dance???? I can only imagine that Narancia told him all about music and dance and popular artists. He must have been so proud that there was something he knew and Fugo didn’t. And for them to be so in sync with the dance, they have definitely spend a long time practicing, maybe already far before Mista joined the gang. You wouldn’t do that if you weren’t very close with someone, all the more because it’s not that much in Fugo’s character.

And then there’s that beautiful last scene. I know it’s anime only, but the staff wouldn’t put it in if it wasn’t canonically plausible. Fugo was on the other side of the country, he had no way of knowing what was going on with the rest. Yet he felt the premonition that something had happened. And Narancia’s soul, in those last moments, turned to Fugo.

「SCARLET RIBBONS」 + Reader’s Bio.

「SCARLET RIBBONS」

Destructive power: C Development potential: A Precision: C Persistence: A Range: B Speed: A Stand cry: PIRO PIRO PIRO ... ! 

Description: Scarlet Ribbons is a natural humanoid Stand centered around her utility to compensate for lacking raw power. Her main functionality is her ability to create red ribbons, manipulating them at the [First]’s discretion. The ribbons have a range from where [First] stands in a radius of forty feet (twelve meters), but grow weaker in power the further they extend out. Upon being rendered unconscious, any ribbons created by [First] will disappear and lose their former effect.

Some usages of the ribbons are but not limited to: constricting opponents, bandaging flesh wounds, blinding opponents by wrapping ribbons around their eyes, creating bridges/ramps, and moving objects within Reader’s strength.

Scarlet Ribbons, while not a fully sentient Stand, will sometimes act on her own volition outside of battle. She’s affectionate and enjoys interacting with others. When she’s not hugging [First], she’ll be looking for other fun things to entertain herself with. Scarlet Ribbons dotes on others by creating them various accessories. 

Her Stand cry is pronounced the same way as pirouette, as [First] has an extensive background in ballet. 

"You’re coming to collect my debt, aren’t you? I hate to say it, but I don’t have much in the way of money. Aha... actually, that’s putting it lightly. I’m broke.” -[First] to Bucciarati during their initial meeting.

History

[First] was born and raised in Queens, New York. From a young age, she had a strong fascination with the arts. After seeing a performance of Cinderella as a child, she fell in love with ballet. Her days were spent practicing various dances and studying religiously to get into a prestigious school. [First]’s eyes were set on Teatro di San Carlo, a revered Italian theatre, where she intended to one day study. 

She went to study abroad in Naples, Italy at the age of 14 after being accepted into the school. Everything seemed to be going well enough as she continued to pursue her dreams. Unfortunately, two years later, money was growing tight. Her parents were struggling to continue to support her. Not wanting to burden them any longer, she took out a loan at the suggestion of her student advisor. The only bank that would grant this loan was, unbeknownst to her, run by Passione. 

Bucciarati was assigned to confront [First] the first time she failed to make an interest payment. He was starting to form his team at this time. After seeing [First]’s resolve to sort things out instead of cowering in his presence, he offered to let [First] work under him to pay off her accumulated debt. [First] reluctantly accepted the offer when she realized there was no better choice. After passing Polpo’s test, she obtained the Stand Scarlet Ribbons. She began her new life as a member of Passione, taking a leave from school to focus on her new job. 

Without no longer having a dormitory to stay in, Bucciarati offered a room in his house until she could get on her feet, which she accepted. A few months later she had saved enough to share an apartment with her teammate, Fugo. The two years spent prior to the events of Giorno Giovanna joining were spent working and forming bonds with Team Bucciarati.
