*thinks* I keep going back to the thought I had in that 20 facts Tezuka thing: Fuji's smile is a defence; Yukimura's smile is an offense, a weapon. I haven't thought much beyond that, though.
Those Rikkai Q&A extras in vol 26 and 27; I keep wondering how seriously to take them - the little jabs that Yukimura makes there do strike me as Fujiesque.
(the Kevin one wasn't the first one; the first one was Roads, which was completely Seiichi of the gardening and the gentle smile and every sweet thing we believed he was before the advent of 269.
fanon-Yukimura versions tend to map to four prototypes in my head. In ascending degrees of danger: gentle smile!Seiichi, generally popular during the first stage of Rikkai fandom, see tongari, morphaileffect; manipulative-Fuji!Yukimura - sources debatable, but I'd say pengiesama reminds me of it; finally, captainlike!Yukimura - helga_b's work?
The fourth is post-269 Yukimura, or Yukimura-with-blades, who isn't in circulation much outside of canon. He's actually a variation on the third Yukimura, although I can't really explain how I'm differentiating - Yukimura in the anime is sharp in a certain way, and Yukimura in the manga is sharp in a different way. In any case, the difficulty (for me) is in getting the #1 aspect, to line up with the rest - you do that a lot better than I do.
(I think they might have watched anime!Sanada. Although really, it doesn't excuse the Yukimura characterisation.)
