JoJo’s Bizarre Adventures: Golden Wind is arguably one of the best animated JoJo parts yet if not the best. The anime featured some of the best-designed characters by Araki and a lot of fun storytelling. Golden Wind follows Giorno Giovanna and his dream of becoming the leader of a gang.
Giorno joined one of Italy’s most powerful gangs known as Passione and teamed up with Bruno Bucciarati and his gang to find out the real identity of Passione’s Boss. Along the way, they found out that they weren’t the only people who had betrayed the boss and were going after his head. La Squadra Esecuzioni, also known as Execution Team, had also defected from the organization in order to find the secret behind the Boss’s identity. For this list, we will be ranking the strongest members of La Squadra Esecuzioni according to their strengths and weaknesses.
Sorbet and Gelato
Sorbet and Gelato were minor characters in Golden Wind. In fact, the two were killed by the Boss just to set an example even if they were an important part of La Squadra Esecuzioni. Gelato was tied up and was forced to watch Sorbet getting cit into pieces, but he swallowed his cloth gag and committed suicide.
Gelato’s corpse was discovered at his home and he has a note attached to him that read “punishment.” Meanwhile, Sorbet’s corpse was cut into 36 individual sections. The two were considered nothing less of psychopaths by Formaggio. The stand abilities of the two are unknown.
Formaggio
Formaggio is the user of Little Feet, which isn’t really an impressive stand when it comes to physical power. In fact, Little Feet has good speed and durability but that’s about it.
The stand is able to shrink people at a slow rate. As limited as this sounds, Formaggio found a way to use the stand in an excellent way. Little Feet can also decrease Formaggio’s size, allowing him to get out of difficult situations while also making him very good at infiltration.
Melone
Melone’s stand is Baby Face. While it has no real physical ability of its own, it has the ability to create secondary stands for Melone to use. The stand is weird in a way, and it works on pseudoscience. Basically, Melone finds a suitable host and the resulting stand will depend on several characteristics. The secondary that is developed is called Junior.
Junior has the ability to break down matter into small cubes while keeping the organisms alive. If the stand touches another person, it can forcefully divide anything it touches. It can also rearrange them and turn them into anything that it desires. The stand is an automatic stand, so it lacks precision.
Prosciutto
Prosciutto has a very unique stand known as the Grateful Dead, which has the ability of causing people over a large area to rapidly age. Prosciutto has two ways of using his ability: He can either cover a large area with his ability (but that would put his allies at risk as well) or by directly touching his opponents.
Touching a target would also increase the speed of aging since the rate of aging depends on the body heat of a person. A person with more body heat will age quicker than a person with less body heat. The only way to bypass this ability is by exposing the body to something cold.
Illuso
Illuso’s stand is Man in the Mirror, a powerful stand capable of taking anything into the mirror world. The stand isn’t strong in a direct fight against any other stand, so it relies on its ability to pull anything and anyone inside the mirror world. This stand is extremely difficult to defend against, which makes it an obvious choice for ambushing opponents.
When a person is dragged inside the mirror world, it is up to Illuso whether or not he allows their respective stand to enter. If the stand is forbidden from entering the mirror world, it will only appear in the real world while its user is stuck in the mirror world. This made Illuso basically invincible inside the mirror world.
Pesci
Pesci is the user of Beach Boy, a very powerful ability if the user knows how to wield it properly. The stand looks like a fishing rod, but it is much more dangerous than it may seem. Pesci’s Beach Boy has a very impressive defense and can transmit information to Pesci as well.
Once the hook enters someone’s body, then it won’t stop until it rips the victim’s heart. The wire cannot be touched and thus, it cannot be pulled out. The string cannot be destroyed, as any damage to it will simply reflect on the person caught in the hook.
Ghiaccio
Ghiaccio’s stand is called White Album. It not like other stands as it doesn’t appear separately from the user’s body, instead covering the body of its user. While doing so, it increases the attack power and speed of its user. Also, White Album allows Ghiaccio to freeze anything that he wants.
White Album has another ability called Gently Weeps, which allows Ghiaccio to freeze things to a temperature of -210 Celsius. This is a very deadly ability, but it uses up a lot of stamina. Additionally, while using this ability, Ghiaccio is unable to cover himself properly.
Risotto Nero
Risotto Nero was the leader of the group, and his stand is Metallica. Metallica doesn’t appear like a huge stand like most of the other stands, because it is a colony stand. Metallica has the power of magnetism, which makes it extremely dangerous to face. This stand is also able to manipulate the iron present in the air or on the ground, and has a range of 10-20 meters when it is active.
When iron is used up from the target’s body, it causes a significant decrease in hemoglobin that returns the blood’s ability to carry oxygen. If the iron is not replenished, the victim will simply die of suffocation. Metallica also allows Risotto to become invisible as it sticks tiny iron particles to his body. Metallica made Risotto the ultimate assassin and he proved that when he fought against Doppio and King Crimson.
