He's from a manga called Battle Angel Alita: Last Order. A buddy of mine pointed it out while I was inside a Barnes & Nobles and said it looked like Akira. Lets just say, 5 minutes of constant laugh ensued.
Well, Akira doesn't really have a very unique look imo. He's a middle aged Japanese man with a headband. A lot of people have mistaken Akira for Ryu from Street Fighter. With that said, Akira is still fucking dope. Definitely my favorite fighting game character of all time.
