JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Golden Wind Episode 10 Discussion

Narancia has noticed that he is shrinking at an alarming rate due to Little Feet's ability. Back at the house where Buccellati's team is hiding Trish, they are staring to get worried, especially Fugo. Giorno points out that Narancia is taking a long time to get back. Trish is also getting impatient, wanting the shopping items she asked for. Narancia realizes that he needs to call Buccellati and tell them about this stand user and his ability to shrink people. The automatic door to a shop will not open due to how small Narancia has become. Shattering the door with Aerosmith, he tries to call Buccallati. Formaggio cuts the phone lines, making sure Narancia cannot call Buccellati. He knows that if the team knows that he has attacked Narancia, they will move Trish. Narancia's stand finds Formaggio hiding in his back pocket. Formaggio escapes by using the force of unshrinking a pen, but Aerosmith finds him quickly and shoots at him, wounding his leg. Formaggio hides in a sewage drain, wondering how Narancia keeps finding him so quickly. Aerosmith finds him again, shooting at the drain and plunging Formaggio in the water. We then flash back two years ago, learning that this Hitman Team that Formaggio is a part of has nine members. Formaggio and some of the other members of the hit man team has just finished a job of assassinating a political figure and head back to the meeting place of the Hitman Team. The team notices that two of their members, Gelato and Sorbet, are missing. Those two were attempting to uncover the identity of the boss of Passione. Formaggio finds Gelato's body and he tells the Hitman Team that he died due to suffocating on his own gag. Days later, a bunch of packages were sent to the team. Inside the packages were frames of cut up pieces of Sorbet and lined up, made up all of Sorbet's body. The team deduces that the boss cut him up and Gelato, while watching, suffocated on his gag. The team never looked for the boss's identity again. That is, until they learned that he had a daughter. Flashing back to the present, Formaggio sees that Aerosmith shot some of the rats in the sewage he was in and deduced that Narancia's stand is tracking him via his breathing. Formaggio comes up with a plan to ride the rats so Aerosmith cannot tell which breathing is his. Narancia sees that one rat in particular was breathing heavy, as if it was carrying something. He shoots at Formaggio, but Formaggio unshrinks himself so the now small Aerosmith does not kill him. The episode ends with this cliffhanger.

Learning of some of the Hitman Team's past and motives, we can see just how terrible this mysterious boss of Passione can really be. Two of the members of this elite Hitman Team were trying to uncover the identity of their boss and were punished severely for it. The boss also decided to send a message to the entire team, frightening them into never looking into him again. However, with Trish being in the equation now, the team sees an easy way to now find the identity of the boss. Also, while we met the entire team, we are still in the dark as to who they are exactly and what their stand powers are (with the exception of Formaggio, who Narancia is currently fighting). All of these men are looking to capture and get information from Trish, so they all will go after Buccellati's team in order to extract this information. Most of them operate alone, but others chose to operate in groups (as we will see with the fight against Pesci and Prosciutto). Out of the entire gang of Passione, these men that make up the Hitman Team are the most elite stand users and the best at assassinating targets, making them an extreme threat against Giorno and the rest of the team. The battles that come will not be easy, but the team is tasked with protecting Trish, so they must fight in order to keep her alive.
