There has been quite a controversy over the web on the matter of the coincidences and similarities between Kagaho and Ikki.
The imagery is obvious and speaks for itself:
Having almost the same armor, the same looks, their renegade and reckless attitude.
The author, Masami Kurumada, and the co-author of the Lost Canvas series, Shiori Teshirogi, have neither confirmed or denied if Kagaho is in fact, Ikki's previous life.The constelation of Bennu represents the Egyptian myth version of the Phoenix, the celestial star of Violence, need I say more??
But as we know, mangakas will always prefer to leave things open.
