 I think Highschool of the dead had a fatguy parody of that character, he looks very similar. But that show also came with big tits, so that's probably why it was green lit.

 Good point.  HOTD (the anime, at least) was pretty good on its own merits.  Saeko was best girl, in my opinion.  Can't ever go wrong anime tiddy, either.

That being said, I Am a Hero is a rather curious take on the genre.  One bonus about the story is that it doesn't start after the outbreak, but rather, it all unfolds and things follow up after.  As such, though, I Am a Hero starts off pretty slow....thus, it has to be given a chance.  Now that I said that, maybe that's why there won't be an anime adaptation....or, if there is one, they'll skip the "boring shit" and get right into the action, which I personally wouldn't like them to do.

Huh.  I saw the anime a couple of years ago, but there's no way I would've remembered that.  Now that I'm reading this manga, I may have to check again.
