Subaru Okiya
One popular theory is that Subaru Okiya is Shuichi Akai. Okiya first appeared not long after Akai's apparent death. Okiya and Akai have many similarities, such as appearance and left handedness. Conan trusts him and ignores Haibara's reactions to him. Conan also seemed to know about the place where Okiya lived before they met. Ran also feels like she recognizes Okiya from somewhere. The name "Okiya Subaru" continues the pattern of puns on "Char Aznable" that "Akai Shuuichi" and his alias "Moroboshi Dai" follow.
"Scar Akai"
Some time after Akai was apparently killed by Kir, during a stroll through Tokyo, Jodie encountered a man who looks exactly like Akai, but with a huge burn scar on the right side of his face. At first, Jodie was reluctant to believe that this man was Akai, and she didn't tell anyone about her discovery, rather attempting to figure it out on her own. Later, she admitted her prior encounter to Andre Camel after he saw scar Akai in a bathroom. In the Detective Boys vs. Robber Group case, the man helped Conan defeat the robbery gang, though Conan himself didn't learn about his presence or involvement then.[1] Scar Akai also appeared at a department store where he was trapped on a floor with Subaru Okiya and then was targeted by the Black Organization's snipers.
Masumi Sera
The character Masumi Sera is Akai's younger sister, as confirmed at the end of Chapter 821.[2] Sera's eyes are identical to Akai's. Also, Sera Masumi's name is also incredibly similar to Mobile Suit Gundam character Sayla Mass (セイラ・マス, Seira Masu). Akai's name is derived from Sayla Mass's older brother's name, Char Anzable. Also, Conan, Jodie, and Camel have the feeling she resembles someone they know.
