[It's a good idea. Oda loves books, may have defaulted to that option regardless of who he drew, so to know that it would land with Takahashi is encouraging.]
[ There's a little curio shop that has a few books in the front window, and he leads Odasaku that way, peering inside. ]
He's an expert in... um, pretty much every medical field, I guess! So maybe not that? But anything else... especially if it's strange or magical, or something he couldn't learn about back home, he'll love it.
[To be an expert in every medical field is certainly an accomplishment, and Oda looks passably impressed. Into the curio shop they go, immediately met with a bookshelf full of strange topics. Oda scans the spines, spotting everything from "Hatching & Raising Dragons" to "Flora of the Dream Garden". He's spoiled for choice.]
[ Nnnnnnot the one about hatching and raising dragons. Their house is already a little crowded with the two of them, Hana and part-time Marshmallow. If Akira learned how to get a little dragon, he probably would.
He plucks the other book instead, flipping through it curiously. ]
When I first got here, he was trying to make medicine out of the plants in the garden. Something like this might help with that!
[ ... ]
I guess it's kinda hard to get him something that he won't use for his work in some way...

[ Way too rich for Haruaki's blood... ]
But Akira-kun also loves to learn about anything he can. He'll read any book you put in front of him. Maybe we should start there?

Any particular topics?

[Nothing wrong with 'em. Oda picks up the book. This gift-buying shit is easy.]
You mentioned wanting help with Akechi's gift too. I'm not sure how much I can really tell you, though...
