New to the game so sorry for the basic question. Is there any benefit to have multiples of the same character in this game? Or should I burn the extras into one and focus on that one?

For example, I have 3 Zoros: Three thousand worlds, streaming wolf swords, and the basic one from shells town in story mode. Got the extra two in the rare recruit option.

And, I have the materials to evolve the basic one to pound phoenix, so I could end up with 4, but should I?
