I’m not even sure where I really begin on this.
One thing to note is that I’m going to try to duck and dodge from focusing on one thing
too long because at that point I should’ve just made a character analysis, which was
something I already had in the works for Bruno.
When I had first seen Bruno with his whole interaction with Giorno, I originally saw
an extremely wrathful man.
I believed that this was going to be a guy that’s one of those bosses that was going
to be giving people a hard time, but as soon as him and Giorno found even ground and Giorno
was introduced to Passione, it was a whole different take.
There’s business Bruno, and family Bruno, the one we see with Passione.
When there’s a job at hand, both Bruno and all of Passione dust off and get to business
but everyone has a different way of doing it, and Bruno’s way is probably one of the
bigger reasons why he’s the best boss possible for everyone.
When Mista and Narancia get serious, at times it just looks like them, but just more lethal.
They still mess around at times if they’re on the winning side, and when they’re losing
there’s times where they get extremely overwhelmed.
Fugo has always seemed solo dolo to me, and Abbacchio is actually the true hard-ass.
With Bruno, his personality has always had this higher feeling to him and it’s probably
more about his righteousness and all that, but he always seems like the best person in
any situation given.
When he speaks, it’s time to listen.
When there’s orders being given, those orders are taken with no question, unless they’re
either extremely odd for the situation at hand, or Mista and Narancia have some questions.
When you need help, you go to Bruno.
When you’re down on your luck, Bruno is there.
He’s the ideal gangster here, and that was a big thing back in the day.
Bruno is a man of his friends, man of his people, his community, all of that.
And to me, a big thing about Bruno being in charge is that it’s not just a handed position
and he’s not just the worst person to everyone.
Him being in charge is more so that he’s just genuinely the best person for the position
out of the group.
And with how he is, he has all that’s wanted in a boss.
You want someone that has the level of discipline that’s required, compassionate to both the
team and the people, intelligent, determined, and a few more attributes that while are the
ideal traits of a boss, they’re what makes up the Bruno we know.
The more personal Bruno hold a lot of his core traits, but you see the more passionate
area of him when his boss character starts cracking a bit.
And that’s not a bad thing in anyway, if there was something that’s genuinely hurting
him massively, I would want him to show his feelings about.
The most notable passionate Bruno example which is also one of my favorite moments of
his character has to be when Diavolo was trying to take out Trish.
The whole, “You’ll never understand how I feel” and everything that went into was
just…
Man, that’s some good shit.
I also feel like there’s supposed to be this connect and contrast between Bruno, Giorno,
and Diavolo.
Which would be massively interesting because of the whole primary colors thing we have
going with them.
Connections to things like the approaches of how bosses are and can be, how your past
makes you, and other things like that.
It sounds a bit out there, but I promise to elaborate further in the future.
For now, what I have between Bruno and Diavolo, you see exactly why they are why they are.
It’s a different take between living for the greater picture and keeping it all to
you because the world is a difficult place.
Diavolo’s is more up for interpretation because we have to think about who the real
original between his two selves was and which ever it is, it can enormously change the analysis
of it all.
So that’s why I was more so debating on when to talk about it.
There was also what took place after the interaction between Diavolo and Bruno and it made me think
in the same overanalyzing way that I usually do that there’s symbolism in what took after.
Now obviously, if you’re watching this I would be expecting that you read Part 5.
I usually don’t worry about spoiler warnings because I expect that people would’ve watched
or read whatever I mention before hand if it’s an in-depth thing, but to cut it short,
yeah, I’m going to be talking about something that happens in Part 5 and it’s important.
I care a lot that you don’t get spoiled especially since this is a huge thing.
Good?
Good.
So, after the interaction between Diavolo and Bruno and we have Bruno living on, but
not exactly.
I was thinking that there was symbolism in him being dead, but still alive for the group.
The two takes that I had was something around his passion and determination was so strong
he couldn’t be killed for the time being, or it was more so around symbolism of all
that he stands for lives on.
Both had potential with connecting over into his soul helping Giorno achieve requiem, but
I’m not sure to where I stand on the matter.
I feel like this is something I need to sit with a bit, and I’ll probably go over it
when I do my fourth or fifth reread of Part 5.
It’s just a thing I like doing in the meantime when I’m exporting these videos, so we’ll
see when I get to it.
Though I feel like I’ve got out everything I needed to say on Bruno without completely
spoiling my character analysis on him, I could’ve just done a study on a different character
but I’m in a huge Bruno mood.
I actually almost forgot, there was this other big thing and it was about Bruno being a gangster
but not one for the people in a sense.
Bruno is nearly a superhero to those in need in his community, but the gangster life isn’t
something that he puts up with in high regard or tells others about it in a romanticized
way.
And that’s another huge thing that I love about him because he’s completely self-aware
on what happens and what his people do.
While there’s Bruno and he’s hero-like in the gangster world, there’s still the
whole other side to it.
I say side like it’s half and half, but really, Bruno’s area is a lot smaller than
I’m giving him credit for.
He doesn’t try to sugarcoat the life and knows what’s at cost as a boss of a group.
You can lose your fellow members at anytime, you may have to do things that you normally
wouldn’t agree with, you’re going to have your back to the wall, and there’s always
going to be someone after you.
It’s a troublesome world, and you see him with others telling them about it, like when
he was trying to tell Narancia to try to stray away from the life.
I like that acknowledgement of direction and how that’s also given to Giorno with him
still following through with his dream of being a gangstar.
You have Bruno continuously showing the ropes of this life to Giorno and we see them go
through all that he’s mentioned that happens, and it helps Giorno so much.
All of the information and the experiences that happened being what sculpts Giorno into
the next ideal leader, and it was a beautiful journey to get there.
Side note, it is so crazy that there are people that disregard Bruno and Part 5 but preach
about 7 like Part 5 didn’t do all of these things first.
I’m just putting that on the table, take that how you will.
Thank you all for watching!
I like the feeling of just talking about characters that I’ve had in mind, but the next one
or the one after the next one will probably be something that’s been requested for a
while, so whatever that is, leave a comment and I’ll see what I can do.
You catch up with me in my media, and I actually had a video going up on my second channel
while this one went up.
I’m not one to debunk really, but that’s something I did so check that out if you want.
Hopefully, I’ll see you all in the next one!
Until then, peace out and God speed.
