Did you know?
- While オビト is written in katakana for the character's name, the word obito in Japanese typically means 'deceased person' or 'the dead'.
- In Japanese, the name オビト is written using Katakana, a phonetic script typically reserved for foreign loanwords or emphasis. Even though the character is Japanese, using this script makes the name stand out visually from standard kanji-based names.
- If written in Hiragana as おびと, the name would look much softer and more 'childlike' than the sharp, stylized Katakana オビト used in the series. The choice of script in manga often dictates how the reader perceives a character's personality.
