Is it just me or Kurahara EXTREMELY resembles Kageyama (from Haikyuu)?? Specially on physical appearance, which is exactly the same, but also in personality. Not only him, most of the characters are a lot like Haikyuu’s. Of course some similarities are expected since the studio and most of the staff are the same, but was this on purpose, as some kind of alternative, or was it lack of creativity?

Same character designer/staff as Haikyuu I think, hence the character design resemblance. The manga has completely different character designs than the anime. However, the novel was written way before Haikyuu's manga was published (2006) so no, the characters weren't "ripped off" from Haikyuu.

I didn’t know about the year of publishing being 2006, thank you

I wish people would stop comparing these two already when all they have in common is hair color

the personality and facial traits are basically the same as well (of course, same studio) so it’s very easy for someone to compare the two
