sark and enishi • things I have done as an Enishi fan

We have mentioned how several Enishi clones have emerged in manga and anime. Now allow me to present, not a clone, but an American TV character whose basic personality is very much like our white tiger. And just as intriguing. That’s why I like him. ^^ Presenting: Mr. Sark.

For those who don’t know or don’t watch ALIAS (the spy series starring Jennifer Garner), Sark is the second man to Arvin Sloane, the main antagonist of the series. At his young age, anything he says to any level of the organization is obeyed, and quickly. Especially if they don't want to get hurt. And he seems to know almost every high-level information there is about every operation.

Similarities with Enishi:

--both are young and dangerous (Sark is 223)
--both work for an organization (althoughh Sloane’s and Derevko’s organization is a very loose one)
--both have a mysterious history
--both have great fashion sense and are WWAY good-looking
--both are level-headed and serious peoplle
--both are hard to judge at face value --both know how to psyche people and get under their skin
--both know how to get their way
--both are multilingual
--both have a great way of smirking ^^

Differences with Enishi:

--Enishi won’t agree to be second fiddle to anyone
--I have yet to see Enishi in a gendarme outfit and look drop-dead gorgeous ^^
--Sark has blonde hair, doesn’t wear glassses, and doesn’t wear Chinese clothes
--Sark doesn’t have a sister, or any famiily that we know of
--Sark doesn’t have five comrades

(Sark is played by David Anders, who is not any form of European, by the way, but is a Midwest American!)
