History
The Obariyon is a Japanese "piggyback demon" from local folklore. While a person is walking along a woodland or grassy path, the Obariyon may jump out and attach itself to their back. While it cannot be seen, its weight can be felt by the person, and it becomes harder to walk. The Obariyon cannot be easily removed without the use of magic, but it is said if you can remove it and take it home, it will turn into many valuable gold coins.

Devil Survivor 2
Obariyon is one of the first demons fought in the game and saves the Protagonist, Daichi, and IO from death by causing it to crash into the side of the subway.

Raidou Kuzunoha Vs. King Abaddon
Appears in the case file Fear of Betobeto: Thought to be Betobeto but when Raidou arrives to investigate it is revealed to be Rumored Obariyon following soldiers from behind in Kasumidai. Much faster than regular Obariyons and having much more HP, they appear in several waves of five and are still weak to wind. After Obariyon's defeat he thanks Raidou for beating them since they couldn't stop once they picked up that speed and just kept going.

Trivia
