02Appearance

Abbacchio is a tall man of slim build. On his head is a serrated headpiece that acts as a headband. He keeps long, light hair, dividing into spikes that angle outwards or upwards at their ends, being shoulder-length in his first appearance and growing longer until halfway down his torso. He also wears a dark shade of lipstick.↗↗

Jolyne, Fly High with GUCCI

Abbacchio makes an appearance in the one-shot wearing a green jacket with blue buttons, a white pull-over, brown pants, and red shoes. He is consistently portrayed with blue hair and blue headpiece.↗

03Personality

Leone Abbacchio is a somber, quite bitter, yet dedicated member of Bucciarati's team.↗

As a police officer, Abbacchio wanted to keep the streets safe and vowed to give his life in the pursuit of justice. However, the high crime rate among the citizens, their ungratefulness, and the many criminals who bribed their way out of punishment eroded his sense of justice and he began to accept bribes, telling himself that he was still keeping the peace in the city. When he failed to properly arrest the man who had bribed him because he feared he would be discovered as a corrupt cop, Abbacchio had to see his partner in the police being fatally shot to save him.↗↗↗

Abbacchio is one of the more serious members of Team Bucciarati. Out of the group, he is one of the most no-nonsense members, taking objectives seriously and allowing very little to entertain him. Among the few times he smiles is out of spite for others (e.g. chuckling at Giorno's seemingly absurd predictions and humorously asking Illuso if he'd lost something after successfully getting Mr.President 's key away from him). Abbacchio never participates in the antics of his teammates. However, he still frequently participates in a handful of casual group conversations, especially during lunch.↗↗

Stand

Abbacchio's Stand, Moody Blues, re-enacts events occurring in a given place within a time specified by his user.↗

Personal Skills

05Story

SPOILERS

Background

Abbacchio became a police officer after graduating high school. He was very sincere about protecting people, but not long after he was stationed in his area, he realized his job had a lot of contradictions. Though the police officers risked their lives to protect the people, the people are not grateful, always trying to get out of punishments and sometimes even accusing the officers of not doing their job.↗

One night a thief was reported breaking into an old man's house. Abbacchio and his partner arrived on the scene and split up to try and trap the thief. As Abbacchio entered the house, he stumbled upon the thief, who was trying to escape through a window. It turned out the thief was the same man Abbacchio had accepted the bribe from before.↗

Polpo's Treasure

Abbacchio was introduced to Giorno as part of Bucciarati 's gang along with Narancia, Fugo, and Mista. In an attempt at hazing Giorno, Abbacchio urinates in a tea pot and offers some to him under the pretense of friendship. However, Giorno then turns the situation around by actually seemingly gulping down his cup, surprising Abbacchio and impressing the rest of the group.↗

Bodyguarding Trish

The group takes in Trish Una in order to protect her from apparent traitors within the gang and hide her in a house in a vineyard. However, Narancia is sent on a supply run and encounters one of the hitmen, Formaggio. The mayhem Narancia causes is sure to attract the rest of the traitors in the area. Abbacchio reprimands Giorno for assuming that the Boss would send orders immediately, only to speak too soon as Mista confirms their next course of action just as quickly afterwards.↗

Man in the Mirror

Abbacchio, along with Giorno & Fugo arrive in the ruins of Pompeii. It is there that Fugo is attacked by la Squadra member Illuso, dragging him into the mirror world with his Stand Man in the Mirror. Fugo then activates his Stand, Purple Haze, which was separated from its user through the mirror. Abbacchio alerts Giorno to get away since Purple Haze's power could instantly kill them both.↗

The Way to Venice

Abbacchio is present for a few more attacks from La Squadra Esecuzioni. When the group board a train to Florence, they hide inside of a turtle named Coco Jumbo which was left on the platform near the train for Bucciarati. However, they are followed by a duo of assassins. Prosciutto uses his The Grateful Dead to age everyone in the train and push the team into revealing themselves.↗

Going Traitor

The group reaches the San Giorgio Maggiore church where one of the members must deliver Trish at the top of the basilica and the rest must stay in their boat. Giorno volunteers but Abbacchio shoots his proposition down, arguing that the head of the team should have the honor of completing this last part of the mission. When Bucciarati escorts Trish to the Boss, Abbacchio once more scolds Giorno for going against orders and running in after them.↗

The Way to Sardinia

While still in Venice, the group discuss their next course and Trish reveals that she knows her mother met the Boss in Sardinia. Suddenly, Narancia claims he is being attacked by an enemy Stand, and Abbacchio follows his apparent instructions to use Moody Blues to reveal their attacker. However, Narancia's strange actions leave Abbacchio confused and somewhat angry. Outside of his awareness, Narancia and Giorno were indeed fighting two enemy Stand Users.↗

Finding the Boss's Past

Abbacchio is ordered to look for the place where the Boss took a photo of Trish's mother, Donatella, in order to unveil his face. Upon attempting to use his Stand powers to replay said events, Abbacchio is left alone as the group is pulled towards some commotion (a fight between Vinegar Doppio and La Squadra leader Risotto Nero). Abbacchio, having been left vulnerable, is killed by the Boss in disguise as a boy playing a game of soccer.↗

Legacy

Upon finding Abbacchio's corpse, the whole group is left horrified at how sudden his death was: Mista becomes quiet and refuses to look at it; Giorno is left in disbelief at his failure to be able to save him; Narancia cries and becomes desperate, begging Giorno to do something; Bucciarati, despite trying to act mature and commanding the gang to leave the area, subconsciously bites his lip hard enough to bleed.↗

08Behind the Character

While writing Part 5, Araki originally planned on having one of the members of Bucciarati's team, out of Abbacchio, Mista, Narancia and Fugo, be a spy working undercover for the Boss. This spy would then at some point betray Bucciarati and Giorno, similar to the story of Judas. Araki initially settled on making Fugo the traitor, stating that it possibly would've been up to Giorno to dispatch of him. However, Araki decided against it as he couldn't bear how Bucciarati would've felt being betrayed by a dear friend.↗↗↗

In Abbacchio's first appearance in the Weekly Shonen Jump serialization of Chapter 456, his name was originally spelled as Abakkyo (アバッキョ) instead of Abakkio (アバッキオ), with the former notably being more accurate to the Japanese pronunciation of the word.↗
