V wears a white mask, D has a very pale face. They are both somewhat inhuman, possessing superhuman abilities. V has them due to the experimentation, whereas D has them because has is half-vampire. They both have a single-letter name with an 'ee' sound. It is possible that D was based upon V? The language barrier between England and Japan and the close dating makes it seem unlikely to me, but who knows right? Perhaps great authors stick together. I can see it being likely that they were conspired during the same period of time. More likely it is a coincidence (sorry V) and perhaps they both drew some inspiration from a similar source, like Zorro. I am actually surprised Zorro is not mentioned in this article, what with also wielding a sword and riding a black horse and so forth.
1813:(2003), these descendants of Dracula had already been brought back to life in Japan by Kikuchi Hideyuki during the Eighties. This popular horror and science-fiction author created a series of novels about the activities of D, a 'knight-errant' who roams a post-nuclear world astride his cybernetic horse. The first novel was turned into a mediocre movie, full of slow-motion action and textured backgrounds, while the third novel was brought to the screen in a lavish co-production faithfully reproducing Amano Yoshitaka's original illustrations.

1022:. Much material contributed by S. Sazynski appears to represent one critic's interpretation: for example, "Kikuchi makes a point to have D behave out of character and mysogenistically insult Leila's 'unnatural' and 'unfeminine' nature" or "Poor Mashira" or "the movie's excellent theme." I don't want to start a revert war, but there is room to argue that much of the article currently reads more like a term paper or critique than an encyclopedia article and perhaps should be cut.â

His past is shrouded in mystery and he has sworn revenge against vampires, even though his father was a powerful member of the race of 'Noble' vampires, now in decline, which survive in the legendary City of the Night.
