A Paris-based Mafia don whom Kanzaki approaches to contract a hitman on Shin's life. Through Farina, Charlie is hired as an assassin to return to Area 88. In exchange, Kanzaki would purchase airline parts from companies under Farina's control. Unfortunately for Kanzaki, both Farina and Maxwell Corporation (the company Kanzaki dealt with regarding the defective airbus) plan to use Kanzaki as a fall guy in a takeover of Yamato Airlines. Farina appears briefly in the OAV but does not seem to have any involvement beyond the assassination attempt. In the manga, Farina plays a much larger role and is later involved in supplying weapons to the Anti-Government forces. He does not appear at all in the 2004 TV series.
