Overview

The Pacino Family is a band of mobsters that carries a C-Class criminal rating and answers to Don Pacino. They cultivate a classic gangster look, turning out in business suits.

Their arsenal runs to an assortment of firearms, from pistols to Uzis, which they rely on to throw their weight around. As a group they operate on the low end of the criminal threat scale despite their heavy weaponry.

Role

The gang appears in the OVA The Pupil Who Is an Extremely Poor Talker, where Don Pacino runs into Genos and Typhoon Family No. 2 Man outside a shuttered store. Suspecting the two are connected, Don Pacino hauls Genos into a hangar to interrogate him about his business.

Genos explains that he is Saitama's disciple, that he is only searching for an open shop, and that his crossing paths with Typhoon Man is pure coincidence. The gang does not buy the story, so Don Pacino orders his men to open fire on the cyborg.

Notable Members
