* His full name is Kotarou Kazama (風間コタロウ).
* His full name is Kotarou Kazama (風間コタロウ).
* Kotarou's namesake comes from [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F%C5%ABma_Kotar%C5%8D Kotarou Fuuma], the head of the Fuuma ninja clan of the Sengoku era. The clan was originally called Kazama.
* Kotarou's namesake comes from [[Wikipedia:Fūma_Kotarō|Fūma_Kotarō]], the head of the Fuuma ninja clan of the [[Wikipedia:Sengoku|Sengoku]] era. The clan was originally called "Kazama".
* Along with Kotaro is a purple serpent named Orochi (meaning "big snake") that has an orange kunai pattern on its forehead.
** [[Jiraiya]]'s dislike for Kotaro may come from the fact that in his source material, ''Jiraiya Gōketsu Monogatari'' (The Tale of the Gallant Jiraiya), he has an archenemy called [[Wikipedia:Orochimaru|Orochimaru]], who was one of his followers but was overtaken by serpent magic.
* Kotaro has two appearances in the loading screens. In the first one, he's seen bullying [https://wiki.housamo.xyz/Jiraiya#transient0 Jiraiya] by using Orochimaru, with text that reads: "A frog caught by a snake" (ヘビににらまれたカエル), as well as another one with Hanuman, which says (烈はこう). The kanji is usually a prefix, which makes the following kanji more "violent" (from fire, to conflagration, (火 going to 烈火) for example). In the image, however, it looks as if both are practicing a hand posture for their Jutsu, which then, would translate to "this one is Retsu".
