Josuke Higashikata. ...Does anyone else find that name odd? That almost sounds like Joe Higashi.

Then again, most of us already know that SNK fashioned Benimaru after Jean Pierre Polnareff, another Jojo's Bizarre Adventure character. Is it possible that Joe Higashi's name might have been influenced by Josuke? Or is it just a coincidence?
