Origin
Pirates Orojya is based on the mythical creature, Yamata no Orochi. Yamata no Orochi (八岐の大蛇), or simply Orochi, was a Japanese dragon told in Izumo mythology of the Shinto religion, which was slain by Susanoo, the Shinto God of the Sea and Storm. Orochi had 8-heads and 8-tails and as such, Yamata no Orochi literally meant "8-branched giant snake". Pirates Orojya references Yamata no Orouchi by its motif, the eight snake-heads on the Orojya Chrome Wheel, as well as the large, Oroja face on the Chrome Wheel.
