Takaharu Osumi and Takaharu Okuma are the same person. The family name kanji currently entered for Osumi is seemingly an error, as most sources still give the kanji 大隈. Sources vary on which name reading they give.

Ōkuma:

Ōsumi:

I've found Lain to be unreliable with ambiguous name readings before, and アニメ@wiki doesn't have a question mark next to the furigana for this name. I will wait for more evidence before purging, but Ōkuma is very likely to be correct over Ōsumi.
