02Appearance
Mista is a teenager of above-average height and medium build. He has large black irises, and wears a uniquely shaped knit cap with a diagonal grid pattern and the front shaped like an arrow pointing downward. He is known to keep a lot of things inside his hat, particularly ammunition, as he typically prefers to keep his hands free. Under his hat, he has short hair.↗↗↗↗
Mista's attire consists of a turtleneck crop top cashmere sweater with a design similar to his hat, zebra striped leather pants that he uses to store his gun, a thick belt, and boots. Due to the quality of the material, he likely spends the most money on clothing out of Team Bucciarati.↗↗
03Personality
Easy-going and relaxed whenever the number "4" is not involved, Guido Mista is also a resolute gunslinger when in battle.↗
Mista comes off as a laid-back teenager, being one of the least serious members of Team Bucciarati, although not as childish as Narancia. His backstory describes him as a carefree individual, whose goal was to enjoy simple, daily, and worldly pleasures such as food or pretty girls. During idle times, Mista can often be seen reading books or magazines. His simplicity would be mistaken as idiocy by those that did not know him well, when, in reality, he'd rather not trouble himself by thinking of complicated matters.↗↗↗↗↗↗
While Mista may act nonchalant, he is one of the most uncivil and violent members of the cast. He often commits violent acts without hesitation, having a history of getting into fights that he would sometimes lose, for the petty reason that someone had badmouthed his favorite movie star.↗↗↗↗↗↗↗
04Abilities
Stand
Mista's Stand Sex Pistols allows him to redirect bullets shot from his personal revolver.↗
Gunmanship
Even without his Stand, Mista is a gifted sharpshooter. His uncanny precision with a revolver, supported by his ability to keep his cool even in the middle of a gunfight, makes him a particularly deadly individual and assassin.↗
05Story
SPOILERS
Background
Guido Mista was born on December 3, 1982. In his early childhood, one of Mista's neighbors adopted a kitten out of four and later learned that kitten clawed one of the said neighbor's eyes out. This resulted in Mista's tetraphobia or fear of the number 4. In his teenage years, Mista had been living on his own. He enjoyed a carefree life despite living in poverty most of the time.↗↗
Battle Against Rolling Stones
One day as the team enjoys their lunch, Mista enthusiastically explains how he's deduced that meat from herbivores must be more delicious than the meat from carnivores, meaning that humans must actually taste bad. Bucciarati arrives and informs the team that Leaky-Eye Luca has died and that Polpo has ordered him to investigate the matter.↗
Vento Aureo
Polpo's Treasure
Mista is introduced to Giorno Giovanna alongside the rest of the group in a restaurant. Mista in particular witnesses fellow member Leone Abbacchio urinating inside a teapot, and stifles laughter after seeing Giorno hesitate to drink from the teacup. However, he is quickly stupefied and impressed when Giorno gulps the whole cup.↗↗
Protecting Trish Una
The team then receives their first mission from Pericolo: to protect the Boss 's daughter Trish from traitors who seek to discover the Boss's identity through her. Thus Mista, alongside his team, hides in the countryside until the Boss deals with the traitors. However, their hideout is compromised after Formaggio from La Squadra Esecuzioni finds Narancia and battles him; although Formaggio is killed, Narancia's onslaught is bound to attract the attention of the traitors.↗
Protecting Trish Una / Battle Against Ghiaccio
At 4:43 a.m. on an especially chilly night, Mista and Giorno enter the Ponte Della Liberta, the only road connecting Venice to the mainland. Suddenly, Giorno briefly loses control of the car as the tires seem to have slipped, propelling Mista (who has been swiping a window) into the left. As the mist on the windows is getting thicker and Giorno decides to open a window, Mista realizes with horror that his little finger has been frozen and has stuck to the ice cold glass on the other side.↗
Betraying the Boss / Squalo and Tizzano's Attack
Team Bucciarati go eat at a restaurant in Venice while deciding the next course of action. Mista discusses vegans' lifestyle with Narancia and Abbacchio, and mistaking a civilian for an enemy, beats him up before realizing his mistake.↗
Final Confrontation Against Diavolo
Separated from Bruno, the group head toward the Colosseum, Mista standing guard. Unbeknownst to them, Diavolo manipulates Bruno and manages to reach the mysterious ally first. The hacker, who is revealed to be Jean Pierre Polnareff, is forced to use the Arrow on Silver Chariot, who is defeated after a brief struggle. Yet, another Stand makes an appearance and puts everyone in Rome to sleep.↗
Final Confrontation Against Diavolo / Gold Experience Requiem
Mista spends the rest of the fight witnessing Bruno sacrificing himself to permanently defeat Chariot, and Giorno evolving his Stand into Gold Experience Requiem. Gold Experience Requiem then easily defeats King Crimson and pummels Diavolo, inflicting a fate worse than death.↗
Purple Haze Feedback
People assume Mista is the #2 in Passione and Giorno's underboss after Diavolo 's defeat. However, he doesn't like this too much, since 2 squared makes 4. He considers Polnareff (who is consigliere) to be #2 and calls himself #3 instead.↗
Eyes of Heaven
Just after Giorno, Mista and Trish have defeated Diavolo, they return to the Colosseum.↗
06Plot details
SPOILERS
Personality
He displays a total willingness to commit outright torture or murder with a casual approach; he tortured Zucchero while casually dancing and threatened to burn his retina with the sun, had no hesitation in shooting Sale in the head on sight and leaving him for dead, and threatened to execute Pesci if he didn't answer a question on the count of two.↗↗↗↗↗↗↗
Moreover, Mista shows great calmness in battle, managing to keep his nerve most of the time despite wounds or even the threat of death.↗↗↗↗
Relationships
After his death, Mista appears to be hurt by it and visibly tries not to overemote.↗
Relationships / Golden Heart, Golden Ring

08Relationships
Giorno Giovanna: Mista is one of the initially nicer people to Giorno in the gang when he first joins and is quick to grow to him after seeing him in action. Mista is the second to realize Giorno's ability to guide others without their knowledge, viewing him as a source of hope. The two frequently team up together and place a lot of faith in each other's abilities, at one point combining their Stand powers in a moment of doubt to capture a helicopter. By the end of the story, Mista and Giorno are the surviving members of the team, and perhaps closer friends than the rest, continuing to work together in the gang when Giorno takes over as boss with Mista as his subordinate.↗
Bruno Bucciarati: Bucciarati first heard of Mista when he was being prosecuted. Seeing that Mista had the necessary willpower and honor, Bucciarati pulled some strings to have him freed from prison and admitted into Passione. Ever since then, Mista has shown great admiration for him and an immense trust in Bucciarati's judgment, staying loyal to him even after he betrays the organization, to the point of joining him in said betrayal. Bucciarati trusts Mista as a valuable fighter, while Mista respects Bucciarati's ability as a team leader.↗
Pannacotta Fugo: Even though Fugo is a more down-to-earth person when compared to the superstitious and sometimes exaggerated Mista, they seem to get along quite well, with Fugo taking part in Narancia and Mista's antics and Mista joking about Fugo staring at Trish's breasts. Despite their friendship, Mista didn't express much reaction after the second-in-command abandons the gang.↗
Golden Heart, Golden Ring
Rigatoni: Rigatoni and Mista shared a partnership in the past together. They had violent arguments regularly due to their differing ideals and respective pride. Their partnership ended after a botched mission to assassinate a woman. The woman, who wasn't a Stand user, should have been eliminated by Mista but she escaped. The pair shared one last argument before Rigatoni left. After news of Team Bucciarati's betrayal broke out, Rigatoni came out of retirement to settle a score with Mista one last time.↗
