02Appearance
The 37th universe's Bucciarati appears mostly the same as his original universe counterpart, with black chin-length hair styled in a bob cut and straight-cut bangs covering his forehead. He also has a braid going along the top of his head. He has a hair clip on each side of his head, though unlike the original, his hair clips resemble ladybugs.↗
Bucciarati's clothing consists of a white suit with an open heart-shaped cut out at the chest, revealing a dark lace top underneath. There are circular decorations like ornamental studs around the neckline, cuffs, and down the front of his suit. A sewing needle pierces through each side of his suit near his shoulders. His sleeves and the top of his shoulders also have cross stitch patterns sewed on. When he appears again in Chapter 15, his suit's collar is sewed shut.↗
03Personality
The 37th universe's Bruno Bucciarati is a perceptive and intense leader with a strong sense of justice, loyalty, and honor. He has an acute nose for lies, often claiming he can "smell" deceit and wanting his team to be aware of that fact. He is confident that his sense is never wrong. If someone tries to keep something hidden, there may be a weaker taste or scent of their lie, but he can still catch them regardless. He demands honesty from his team and can be relentless in uncovering hidden truths, as seen when he confronts his boss, Giorno, with a fiery determination to expose any secrets that could threaten Passione.↗↗↗
He is vigilant and stern, often checking in with his team to make sure they aren't fooling around. Despite his fierce dedication to truth and duty, Bucciarati is compassionate for his team and others. He upholds a personal code of ethics, refusing to harm civilians, and praising Jorge Joestar for informing him of Dolcio Cioccolata and Secco Rottario 's betrayal of that oath.↗↗
Bucciarati is also pragmatic and understands the darker realities of his world. He acknowledges that certain people deserve their fate, particularly those who harm society like Diavolo and Yoshikage Kira, and encourages Jorge to see these outcomes as necessary.↗↗
04Abilities
Stand
Bucciarati wields a Stand named Stepmom, which can sew things together at rapid speeds with its needle.↗
05Story
SPOILERS
Tracking Down the Boss
Bucciarati helps Giorno and the others in Passione with tracking down the boss of Passione. When Nero Nero Island collides with Morioh, Bucciarati summons Jorge Joestar, Daibakusho Curry, and Runbaba 12 to the Budogaoka Academy Garden. Giorno speaks with Jorge on the phone, requesting his help to find Diavolo. Bucciarati is the leader, Giorno is in charge of communications, and three other members will each individually accompany the three detectives.↗↗
When Narancia and Jorge end up in Mars, Bucciarati calls them on their pebble phone. He reminds them that they have Morioh's citizens hostage, so he doesn't want them fooling around. Jorge states that despite speaking like a gentleman, he knows Bucciarati's group is full of murderers who kills civilians. However, Bucciarati responds that his group swore an oath not to kill innocent people. He thanks Jorge for telling him that Cioccolata, Secco, and others have betrayed them.↗↗
After Jorge and Narancia crash from space back to Earth, Bucciarati calls them and Jorge relays the situation they're in. Bucciarati explains that Reimi fixed the holes in Arrow Cross House after the spaceship crashed through it. There are only minor injuries on either side of the war with the American army, and the latter is starting to surrender since nobody could contact headquarters or leave the island.↗↗
Traitor Among the Gang
Bucciarati closely watches the investigation of the George Joestar from the original universe, after he ends up in the 37th universe. When George asks Bucciarati if Giorno is lying, Bucciarati notices the scent of a lie coming from Giorno. Giorno tells him that he's imagining it, infuriating Bucciarati. Fugo and Mista run back into the room asking Bucciarati what is happening, but Bucciarati angrily yells at Fugo to shut up.↗
They find Antonio Torres 's hollowed skin was disguised as Giorno all along. The real Giorno moves his soul into Diavolo's corpse and reveals his betrayal. Bucciarati attempts to attack Diavolo with his team and the Japanese group, but they fail to prevent Diavolo from taking George with him.↗↗
Bucciarati informs Jorge of what occurred and how the other George solved the mystery. Learning about Dio Brando, Bucciarati interrogates and tortures the original Antonio, learning that Dio is his boss. Unable to think of a solution on how to flip Morioh, Jorge tells Bucciarati to gather as many Morioh citizens into Arrow Cross House as he could so that they could either time travel or be protected from whatever happens to the island.↗
Searching for Kira
Later, Bucciarati has Daibakusho Curry and Runbaba 12 investigate what happened to Denta Shishimaru 's secretary, Chien Kunimido. The two are quickly able to find Chien at his house, learning that he is actually Kira. Disguised as Chien, Kira had blown up several detectives and also tortured the original George to the brink of death. Listening to Jorge's request, Bucciarati sends the original Antonio through Cube House back in time to England.↗↗
