Formaggio

Background

Formaggio was a member of La Squadra Esecuzioni, a team of nine assassins working within Passione. However, the team was frustrated they only received compensation for each kills while the rest of the gang was getting rich from the drug trade. One day their teammates Sorbet and Gelato disappeared while they were trying to investigate the Boss 's past. They found Gelato choked on a gag in his house, with a piece of paper on which was written the word "punishment".↗

The anime adaptation expands on his activities. The night Sorbet and Gelato disappeared, he was on an assignment with Melone, Pesci and Prosciutto. Formaggio was tasked with killing an official and slipped a shrunk car in his drink, then eventually let it grow to its full size in the official's stomach. Formaggio was also the one to find Gelato's corpse in the anime.↗

Vento Aureo

Despite Formaggio's doubts, Narancia manages to reach a payphone. Unwilling to let Narancia warn his team, Formaggio must cut the phone's cable, making his presence known. Narancia summons Aerosmith and locates Formaggio in his pocket. Formaggio is stuck as Narancia squeezes him in his fist and shows him for Aerosmith to shoot down. However, Formaggio then un-shrinks his pen, the force of the instantaneous growth propelling him towards the street.↗

Formaggio returns to the surface and corners Narancia. He demands that he reveal Trish's location. When Narancia refuses, Formaggio, remembering the fate that befell Sorbet and Gelato, becomes angry and puts Narancia into a bottle in which he is keeping a spider. As Narancia fights the spider, Formaggio notices a map that Narancia had dropped earlier, which reveals Trish's location. Formaggio laughs and points out that Narancia has marked all the roads, so he only has to follow it in reverse.↗

Formaggio uses his own blood to douse the fire on his body and shrinks himself to escape. Narancia can’t track him because of all the carbon dioxide being released by the burning car. He decides that since he can’t track Formaggio, he’ll just make the fire bigger, and starts shooting and bombing all the cars on the street to trap him. With nowhere left to run, Formaggio returns to his normal size but is badly burned.↗

As he dies, Formaggio takes solace knowing that not only did he make Narancia fail his mission, the other members of Squadra Esecuzioni now have a lead on Trish Una.↗

Personality

Despite this, Formaggio also has some standards, expressing that he doesn't really want to see someone being eaten alive by a spider, and being horrified at Sorbet 's gruesome death.↗↗↗
