Obitsu is, in reality, a type of ball-jointed doll (BJD) by the company Parabox. They are usually sold as individual parts. These parts can be used to make a doll, or, more commonly, are used to replace doll parts on existing collector dolls (either as customization or for repair).

In a more slang sense, the word is often used as a verb. To "obitsu" a doll is to replace one or more of the body parts of an existing company-made doll with Obitsu items.
"I don't like the joints on my new BJD doll, so I'm gonna obitsu it."

A Japanese ball-jointed doll made out of vinyl.

A lot of BJD-fans buy them as a substitute of those beautiful resin dolls when they don't have the will to work to afford one; and Obitsu-dolls are often frowned upon in the BJD-community.

onitsuka 

Kihachiro Onitsuka was a Japanese soldier who after WWII decided that sports would be good for Japanese youth. He therefore learned how to make shoes circa 1949. He then founded Onitsuka Co Ltd. In 1958 he bought the "Tiger" brand. In 1972 they merged with another company called Jelenk and then they decided they needed a new name. So,they found an old latin phrase that said, "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano"; which means, "A soundmind in a sound body". By taking the first letters of each word in the latin phrase you get ASICS, which is the name of the shoe brand.

Now a days Onitsuka's are used alot by the "scene" or "scenester" subcultures, specifically those consisting of indie and hipster styles.

Man 2: Scene! Onitsuka's are sooo expensive...

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
