Twins
Although we can safely assume Miroku is an only child he does bear strange resemblances to characters from other anime/manga series. Some he looks uncannily like, others he acts a lot alike... so maybe Miroku does have some brothers out there in the strange anime/manga vortexLook-Alikes...
These are charcters that look like Miroku, be it similar hair, eyes, face, body somewhere along the lines I thought they looked alike... so here are the physical twins of the great monk!Tenchi from Tenchi Muyo...
If you can't see this one, you must be blind. Both Tenchi and Miroku have long(ish) dark hair tied back in a little ponytail and round eyes. In fact, Tenchi and Miroku would be almost indestinguishable if they wore the same clothes. Tenchi and Miroku are almost completely oposite in personality, although they both have to deal with the stupidity of others on a constant basis they really are like night and day... Miroku, would be happy to have hordes of attactive alien girls fawning over him whereas Tenchi seems a little distressed by it... not that we can really blame him. I mean if you had Ryoko and Aeka fighting over you you might be a little worked up too...
Ferio from Magic Knights Rayearth...
I know in colour pictures Ferio has green hair, but the first time I saw Ferio was in the manga he had grey hair in the manga and thus I made a match! Personally I think the two look alot alike. Ferio and Miroku both have that signature long hair tied in a small ponytail at the back. Both also have earrings. Although not quite to the extreme of Miroku, Ferio is also a little flirtatious especially with Fuu, however Ferio wouldn't grop her... at least I don't think so. Ferio and serious Miroku do have their similarities as both of them give the impression of knowing essentially everything
Sakuya Kira from Angel Sanctuary...
Long hair, tied back, blah blah blah... actually I picked this match up when I had a picture of Kira as my MSN display picture and my friend (who looks and acts a lot like Miroku) said that Kira looked like him. I played connect the dots and... there you are. Kira, like Miroku is a bit of a flirt and is always there for his friends... Kira is also pretty much unkillable... I mean I'm sure both of them *can* be killed but they do come back from pretty viscious attacks pretty well...I dunno, some people don't seem to see this twinship but I do...
Act-Alikes...
Miroku's personality may be amazing (especially tied to a monk) however he is not alone in his quest for women... here are some other guys who act like our favourite monk!Zelos Wilder from Tales of Symphonia...
Ok, fine, Tales of Symphonia is a video game and not a manga... but no one can tell me that Zelos does not act almost identical to Miroku in pervert mode. Zelos and his "I'm god's gift to women" definately makes me see the resemblance between the two. Miroku is a bit more physical then Zelos in displaying his affection but that hasn't stopped Zelos from groping anyone. The whole Sheena/Sango thing makes this twinship even more obvious... I mean although Zelos is more for the chest then the butt there is still a serious case of wandering hands. They even both have a serious side! Fancy that!
Sanji from One Piece...
The high kicking, skirt chasing, food cooking pirate from One Piece. Sanji does seem to be a lot like Miroku in that he loves every pretty girl who comes his way... although Miroku is more for touching and Sanji more for staring. Sanji is quite a bit toned down from Miroku though, he just doesn't go that extra mile... Sanji also has a serious side that you arely see... but its there... it IS! The two share a love of women that makes us girls uncomfortable and thus, prone to violence. He can cook too, and so can Miroku (alright... well kind of)
