I can't believe I don't remember these episodes at all, but it's already reminding me (or I guess it should be the other way around) of the Gaim Gaiden starring Baron, the one where Kaito meets a goofy doppelganger. I have to imagine there was some inspiration there.

The part of this most reminded me of Baron is when amnesiac Hajime remembers that he MUST BE VICTORIOUS and dedicates himself to making takoyaki. That core value of Dominance coming out in whatever field he finds himself is 1000% Kaito.

But, yeah, plot-wise, this is very similar! The comedy character tricking the stoic badass into taking over their weirdly-dangerous life, it's got some echoes of that Gaim Gaiden flick.
