Angelo serves as an artisan apprentice in a Florentine sculpture workshop. Though born into relative wealth, he works to support his magistrate father in accumulating dowries for his five sisters. His upbringing surrounded by sisters fostered a gentle and caring demeanor toward women, though this inherent kindness occasionally registers as flirtatious behavior.
His protective instincts initially present as condescending compassion, grounded in the belief that women are fragile and require male aid. This perspective causes early friction with Arte, who rejects his assistance as dismissive of her independence and competence. Arte’s consistent refusal of preferential treatment and demonstrations of skill gradually compel Angelo to reevaluate gender roles. He shifts from a patronizing outlook to authentic respect for female autonomy and capability.
Angelo cultivates profound admiration for Arte’s resolve, evolving into a steadfast ally. Their exchanges propel him beyond his passive role as a provider for his sisters, deepening his recognition of women as individuals with agency. He remains a constant presence across the anime’s first season, reflecting his integration into Arte’s professional and social spheres in Florence.
