Extra; Kunikida?

Well, I know in the first chapter I've been comparing Kunikida with someone in Pandora Hearts (I forgot his name) due to their similar hair style.

But here, Kunikida Doppo looks quite similar to Shizuo Heiwaji from Durarara.
(I mean, their facial features a bit similar.)

Shizuo Heiwajima from Durarara Anime

Though, in the original manga, they don't look similar. (At least for me) I understand it perfectly because in anime, staff who works as illustration in anime studio is more pressured with amount of work and tight schedule, and sometimes they even do for several manga into anime in one time.

That's why in anime, most characters look similar to others.

But in manga, those illustrations staff only work with 1 or 2 contracts (in terms of a light novel being adapted into manga, such as Bsd and Durarara etc.) or some of the anime that are originally from manga (like AoT and Pandora Hearts etc.) They did have tight schedule but not as the one who worked with animation studio.

*This panel is where Kunikida wants to catch Akutagawa using his wire gun. This panel is cute overload!!!

*Kunikida Beast really cares for Akutagawa. Deeply. Especially in the final battle between Aku and Sushi. Akutagawa is ready to die in Atsushi's hand, but Kunikida makes a 'wake up' call for him!
