Modern Warfare 3 Oni Overview
Hiro Watanabe codenamed "Oni," emerges as a complex and formidable Operator within the KorTac faction, leaving an indelible mark on the narratives of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, and Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0.
Ties to Samurai Heritage: Watanabe's origin lies in a samurai clan that, due to unfortunate circumstances, shifts into a life of crime. Despite the shadows cast by his father's criminal enterprises, Oni's grandfather kept the flame of their noble heritage alive, recounting tales of a time when their family stood with honor in the community.
Departure and Military Service: Watanabe fled his family and enlisted in the military, refusing to give in to the criminal legacy. Swiftly earning the moniker "Oni," he showcased exceptional proficiency, ascending through the ranks and securing a coveted spot in an elite multinational special forces unit. His missions took him across the globe, honing his skills and shaping him into a formidable warrior.
Return to Japan: Driven by a deep-rooted sense of duty, Oni returned to Japan, aspiring to protect his homeland from threats, just as his ancestors did. However, his noble intentions collided with the criminal influence of his father, who orchestrated Oni's dishonorable discharge from the military.
A Forced Mercenary Path: Stripped of his military standing, Oni found himself at a crossroads. Forced into the life of a mercenary, he vowed to continue the fight against his father's criminal legacy and reclaim the honor of his family name. This twist in his journey paints Oni as a warrior navigating the blurred lines between duty, heritage, and the personal quest for redemption.
