==Production notes==
*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]].
**''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:Kabuto|Kabuto]]'' is "combat helmet" in Japanese, though it commonly refers to helmets worn by ancient Japanese warriors and samurai.
**''[[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.
*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.
