5 Ideas That Make Mikey From Tokyo Revengers And Erwin Smith Reflect Each Other
Idea#1 Leaders
The most obvious one is that both Manjiro Sano aka Mikey and Erwin Smith are leaders. Mikey leads TOMAN while Erwin leads the scout regiment. They are born to lead. However, Mikey doesn’t appear mature to be a leader, since he is kiddish, sleeps surprisingly after eating, and finds amusement after hitting scums. But, when something ticks him off, his pleasant smile does not take a second to vanish instantly.
Likewise, Erwin Smith comes with a warm personality, but if anything goes out of the plan, he exceeds his limit to push himself through and changes instantly and completely.

Idea#2 Supporters Love Them
Both the leaders have fellow comrade/best friend who trusts, loves, and respects them without birthing any doubt in mind. We are talking about Draken and Levi respectively. Each of the characters is created to support the leader. However, they individually carry a very strong, intimidating, and reliable personality that is enough to make them build their separate identity.

Idea# 3 Walking Towards A Specific Goal
Both Mikey and Erwin have a goal to achieve. Being a leader is definitely tough, but what eases out the journey is a plan set out. In Tokyo Revengers, Mikey plans to rule entire Japan. On the other hand, we find Erwin, who wants to know what is there in Eren’s basement. In regards to that, he was also very curious to learn what resides outside the wall. He went to the extent of compromising his own life just to bring a solid answer for his comrades who were trapped inside the wall.
Idea #4 Are Trusted Blindly
The squad believes them blindly. We even find the founders of TOMAN pampering Manjiro so much that Kyojotaru even commits a grave blunder just to make Mikey happy.
In Shingeki No Kyojin, we often find Levi, taking responsibility for Erwins decisions, relying on him completely. He trusted his leader so much that he went for compromising his entire squad however unintentionally.

Idea #5 Are Very Impregnable Characters
Both Mikey and Erwin are very strong characters that definitely have the power to change the world. We find in the unaltered past, Draken dies, changing Mikey, who also goes missing without a trace.
Similarly, we also feel that Erwin would lament this deep if by any chance he lost Levi. He would be depressed to the core and it would be quite visible too.
Both Mikey and Erwin smith are dreamers, achievers, and politicians; they are determined, ambitious, strong-willed, powerful, alpha characters that definitely steal an important section of the show. They motivate you and inspire you in a positive and different manner, hence you root for them.
