The Alternates[]
Within the Shizaya fandom, there exists another fandom in which the alternates or the alteregos of Heiwajima Shizuo and Orihara Izaya are paired together.
This fandom can be considered as an independent fandom at the same time can be classified under 'Shizaya' though most prefer it as an independent.
The alternates came to be through the art that was release among the merchandise in which the fans had seen here is the list of the alternates:

Japanese Fandom[]
Most Japanese fans consider these alternates as clones created by Izaya, who was trying to find a way to kill Shizuo (but probably ended up changing his feelings about the blonde after seeing the alternates getting along...) This is probably a reason on why the alternates look like either Shizuo or Izaya but act in a different way. It is a mere headcanon though.
