The ''Yamata no Orochi'' is an [[MultipleHeadCase eight-headed]], [[MultipleTailedBeast eight-tailed]] serpentine monster in Myth/JapaneseMythology, similar in appearance to the [[Myth/ClassicalMythology Lernaean Hydra]], give or take a head or two. According to Shinto legend, the Orochi was defeated by the storm god Susano-o, who while WalkingTheEarth after getting booted out of Heaven, answered a request for aid by two earthly deities who were forced by the Orochi to hand over one of their daughters every year to be devoured by the beast, and were now down to their eighth and last one, [[BarrierMaiden Princess Kushinada]]. Just to distinguish the tale from Western dragon slaying myths, Susano-o first [[AttractiveBentGender lured]] the Orochi out by [[DisguisedInDrag disguising himself as Kushinada]] (with the real one [[{{Shapeshifting}} disguised as a comb]] in his hair), and then killed it by setting out a bowl of strong sake for each head, letting it drink itself into a stupor (as it only had ''one'' stomach), ''then'' lopping them off. Inside Orochi's body, Susano-o [[RandomDrop found]] the sword ''[[NamedWeapons Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi]]'' ([[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kusanagi "Sword of the Gathering Clouds of Heaven"]]) that was later renamed "Kusanagi" ("Grass Cutter"), and is one of [[PublicDomainArtifact Japan's Three Sacred Treasures]].

* ''Series/KamenRiderGotchard'' features the Jyamatanoorochi Chemy, which normally [[DarkIsNotEvil isn't malicious]] unless it's forcibly turned into a [[MonsterOfTheWeek Malgam]]. Said Orochi Malgam also happened to be the first one BigBad Geryon was directly involved with in the show.

** ''VideoGame/PokemonScarletAndViolet'' adds in Hydrapple in ''The Indigo Disk'', whose Japanese name is "Kamitsuorochi". Hydrapple itself is a subversion, however; [[TheDividual it's 7 separate serpents coinhabiting a candy apple]], rather than a multi-headed dragon.
