The physical architecture of the Yoroi armor draws inspiration from its namesake, a [[Wikipedia:Japanese armour|Japanese armor]] named ''[[Wikipedia:Ō-yoroi|ō-yoroi]]'', which is [[Japan]]ese for "great armor" and was worn by the Japanese samurai. The armor core features [[Wikipedia:Lamellar armour|horizontal rows of armor plates]] on the arm shoulders, while the armor below the waist resembled the ''haidate'', which were thigh guards that tied around the waist and covered the thighs. The HIKESHI and KABUTO helmets feature characteristics like a large crest on the helmet and a neck guard made of curved plates. The Swordsman's Belt adds a ''[[Wikipedia:Uwa-obi|uwa-obi]]'' around the waist, with the ''[[Wikipedia:Tantō|tantō]]'' handle typically facing towards the wearer's right-hand side for use when grappling in close quarters. The Ever-filled Juzu features the ''juzu'', which were rice rations carried by samurai and named after [[Wikipedia:Prayer beads#Buddhism|Buddhist prayer beads]]. The Twin Dragons chest piece includes a pair of [[wikipedia:Sai (weapon)|sai]], pronged weapons associated with ninja.

**''Hikeshi'' is Japanese for "[[Wikipedia:Fires in Edo|firefighting]]". The HIKESHI helmet, especially its ''shikoro'' neckguard, bears a strong resemblance to the modern Japanese firefighter helmet, characterized by its flaps, the design of which has descended from the Edo period, when the ''hikeshi'' (firefighting) system and ''buke hikeshi'' (samurai firefighters) were introduced.

**''[[Wikipedia:Chonmage|Chonmage]]'' is a type of traditional Japanese topknot haircut worn by men and commonly associated to samurai. The CHONMAGE helmet features a protrusion which resembles the topknot.

**''[[Wikipedia:Yōkai|Yōkai]]'' refers to the supernatural entities and spirits in Japanese folklore. Similar to the ''Yōkai'', which often have animal features, the YOKAI helmet possesses animalistic horns and teeth.

*The CHONMAGE helmet's design is based on the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|Mark VI GEN1]] variant of [[EVA-class Mjolnir]] helmet seen in ''[[Halo 3]]'', featuring a very similar visor shape and indentations, along with a similar mouthguard design.
*''Hakushika'' is Japanese for "white deer". Deer are considered sacred in Buddhism and Shintoism, and the hakushika in particular is the subject of a Chinese legend: [[wikipedia:Emperor Xuanzong of Tang|Emperor Xuanzong]] is said to have encountered a white deer adorned with a medallion distinguishing the animal as being over 1,000 years old, and the emperor interpreted this as a sign that his own life would be long and prosperous. The HAKUSHIKA helmet's Unshed Valor attachment resembles deer antlers.
*The YOKAI helmet's design is based on the [[LOCUS-class Mjolnir]] helmet seen in ''[[Halo 4]]'' and ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'', albeit featuring additional horns, a simplified mouth design with teeth, and a nose sculpt.
*''Kawari'' is Japanese for "exotic" and refers to an "unusually shaped" style of samurai helmets that emerged in the 16th century. These helmets were believed to have been worn by elite soldiers. They emphasized form over function, serving as personal identifiers during combat and also displaying the wearer's taste and importance during formal occasions. The KAWARI helmet's ostentatious peak is typical of the kawari style.
*A ''[[Wikipedia:Hatamoto|Hatamoto]]'', Japanese for "Guardian of the banner", was a high ranking samurai in the direct service of the Tokugawa shogunate of feudal Japan.
 
Season 04 saw the Yoroi core's icons being updated, following the same theme as the Mark VII armor core, featuring a green visor, an altered image angle, and the removal of the Gatekeeper shoulders from any applicable render.

During [[Tenrai II]], the Graceful Leaves icon was shown as a utility that appeared in both sides of the hip, but only the one on the left side appeared in-game. In [[Tenrai III]], the icon was fixed and now it shows the correct version of the utility.
