Angelo Lagusa

Angelo Lagusa, also known as Avilio Bruno, is the main protagonist of the 91 Days anime.

Seven years ago, on his birthday in April 1921, his father, mother, and little brother were murdered by Vincento Vanetti and three others, including Nero Vanetti. Now grown into a young man, Avilio sets about getting close to Nero so that he can exact his revenge.

Appearance
Angelo is a young man with a thin build. He has an undercut with dark blueish-brown hair that is not slicked back and straw-colored eyes. Furthermore, he has thin eyebrows and usually has a monotone expression on his face, so much so that it is referred to as creepy because it is hard to tell if he's alive or dead. As the story progresses and he becomes more stressed, he gets dark bags under his eyes.

As a child, he looked very similar to his adult stature, with similarly cut dark brown hair, as well as hazel eyes and a thin build. Though he lost his cheery disposition as he aged.

Personality
As a child, Angelo was a brave, sweet boy who was very empathetic towards those he was close to, such as his brother and Corteo. He cared deeply for his family. After their deaths, he felt alone and miserable, regretting not being murdered along with them. This event traumatized Angelo and he was forced into a life of petty crime to survive.

Though he expresses that he was terrified at first, he became a skilled pick-pocket and was able to easily do so without the victim knowing.

Angelo grew up to be a cold, cynical man who constantly wore a neutral face. Growing up alone stunted his social skills, and he no longer expressed his emotions freely. Despite all of these changes, he still viewed Corteo as a brother and felt that he had to protect him. He also retained his sweet tooth, especially enjoying canned pineapples. He also is shown to be cruel and capable of cold-blooded murder at times. He possesses a sense of humor that ranges between deadpan and sarcasm. In order to take his revenge, he was willing to do anything and kill anyone without showing sympathy. He is a very skilled manipulator and has very good control of his emotions. He expressed many times that without his revenge, he had nothing to live for. As the Vanettis search for Corteo, he is shown to be extremely stressed and worried. After he is forced to murder him, he becomes even emptier and even begins hallucinating visions of his friend. He learned pick-pocketing skills after running away from Lawless and has long since mastered it. Despite that and his skill with both guns and knives, Angelo as been told multiple times that he is terrible at driving a car. Angelo is also very intelligent, capable getting himself and Nero out of tight spot by outwitting their enemies and is a master manipulator. This skill can be seen very clearly in the Frate arc where everyone, including his allies, were practically dancing to his tunes.

After he finally manages to kill his family's murderers and the mafia family, he expresses that he still feels just as empty and alone as before.

He owns a knife that he carries throughout the show.

Abilities
Able to think up and execute complex plans that have everyone dancing to his tune. Avilio uses an M1911 pistol as his trusted sidearm and instrument of revenge. It features prominently in the opening and closing credits sequences, as well as in the stylized logo of the series that shows him concealing it behind his back.
