Hidebu meaning and pronunciation

In Japanese internet sites, Hidebu, and its variations Abeshi, Tawaba, and Uwaraba (characters from Fist of the North Star), are used as comical expressions of pain or violent death, in a similar vein to “pwned.” Though often connected to Fist of the North Star, it is not necessarily related.The phrase is also a common feature in several Japanese blog posts. In one notable variety, the post includes several pictures of action figures fighting strung together with captions to create a narrative, with “Hidebu” and “Abeshi” as screams of pain.
