Specifically Passione, who are number one in the country. Not trying to be aggressive, I'm trying to say that you don't need to be bothered. I was never talking about real life Italy. I'm trying to make this sound good willed, but it's hard to say that without getting the facts straight too. It is in a way my fault for not specifying fiction or the real word. First, i wasn't talking about what you said, although i disagree with your opinion, that's behiond the point.

Second, i'm not taking anything as an offense, i'm just a bit nitpicky i guess, but there were many exagerations, like having people live a living hell, Diavolo killing innocents and all, remember how Diavolo was reluctant to let Cioccolata stay alive in the first place? Not saying he doesn't do that at all, but... i guess it's hard to put it in a way that doesn't sound like i'm defending him, so i'll just give up on this.

Third, i know that mafia exists and it's a problem in my country, it's a reality that i would never deny, but everything was "realistic" in the manga, government, police, Luca, the whole beginning, "just" with stands, Jbyrdab put it in a way that feels... exagerated? I guess it's too hard to explain, but again, it's not a big deal at all, so don't worry, it's all ok.
