Coincidence or Homage? (Patreon)

Talking about a fighting game character from Aggressors of Dark Kombat. KISARAH, a 16-year-old popular school idol with wavy long hair...Her crush JOE is a spiky-haired dude in gakuran (traditional Japanese uniform). She tries everything to make him notice her.Her super move, Jealousy Bomber:

1. Flirt with opponent 2. Summon her boyfriend and kiss, causing opponent explode in jealousy

Btw, her boyfriend looks just like Ryuuji...She has the same move in her next game Battle Coliseum.But this time her lover is replaced by JOE. The game is released July 1994, a year after DNA2 manga first published on Jump magazine (run from Aug 1993 to July 1994). I think it is clearly an homage.
