Relationships[]

Zac[]

Orochi is Zac's teammate on the Super Stars in the team tournament, and over the time that Orochi spent together with Zac as a member of said team, it becomes apparent that he is close enough to Zac to know when he is not acting his usual self. Zac was also impressed by Orochi's incredible hearing and said he could use someone like him in the studio.

Valt Aoi[]

Orochi developed an interest in Valt in episode 9, describing his Beyblade as "strong but weak, weak but strong" and wanting to see for himself just what Valt and Valtryek were really like. He also helped direct Valt and his mother to the Murasaki house in order to complete a bread delivery there (not knowing it was really a ploy by Wakiya to lure Valt into a Bey battle). There, he got the chance to watch the battle and see how Valtryek fought. However, Orochi began have doubts about Valt after the latter lost to Wakiya. However, in episode 11, after watching Valt and Wakiya's rematch, Orochi realized that he was right about Valt after all.

Shu Kurenai[]

Like many Bladers, Orochi respects Shu as a member of the Supreme Four. When the time came for their match in episode 12, Orochi tried to steal away Shu's fans by playing to the crowd, hoping to throw him off his game. However, Shu was not phased by this. Eventually, Shu defeated Orochi, and the latter congratulated him for having done so, especially after discovering that Shu was injured.

Nika Aoi[]

Orochi saves Nika when she gets stuck in a bathroom.

Trivia[]

  • Orochi is the first Blader in the entire Burst series who is left-handed.
    • Due to their ability to launch with both hands, it's suggested that ambidextrous Bladers such as Silas Karlisle and Shu Kurenai count as well.
  • Like many characters in the Burst cast, Orochi's family name contains a color. Orochi's color is silver.
  • "Orochi" essentially means "great serpent" and has been associated with snakes in Japanese legends and stories.
    • Snakes are known for "hearing" through vibrations in their jaws. This is a special way of hearing, and Orochi has his own special sense of hearing too.
    • Yamata-no-Orochi is a multi-headed serpent in one famous Japanese tale; and Orochi's dreadlocks seem to resemble that as well.
  • Orochi's zodiac is an Aquarius.
  • Orochi seems to know french because during the sub, he's shown counting in french (un, deux, trois).
  • Though inconsequential and irrelevant, it is somewhat noticeable that he shares his name with a Shogun Steel Beyblade, Pirates Orochi 145D, also based on the mythological Yamata-no-Orochi.
