Career & Clubs
Early career
Born in the Fukuoka Prefecture, Obuchi began his career with Saga Prefecture-based side Sagan Tosu, before a short spell with amateur side Pleasure SC. Having joined Cerezo Osaka, he was registered as a type 2 player in October 2020, making him eligible to represent the club in the J.League.
High school
After one appearance in the J3 League with Cerezo Osaka's under-23 side, Obuchi left the club to enrol at the Higashi Fukuoka High School, stating that it was his dream to play high school football. Having joined the high school squad on 7 March, he immediately established himself in the team, featuring at the Funabashi Invitational under-18 Tournament in the same month. Obuchi starred in qualification to the 2021 All Japan High School Soccer Tournament, scoring a decisive goal against the Iizuka High School in a 2–1 win. Despite his side exiting the competition in the second round, he was noted as a stand-out player. Ahead of the 2022 All Japan High School Soccer Tournament the next year, it was announced that Obuchi would join J2 League side V-Varen Nagasaki in 2023, following his graduation.
Professional
Having joined V-Varen Nagasaki in early 2023, Obuchi struggled to establish himself in the team, and by June he had only featured briefly in the Emperor's Cup. In January 2024, he joined J3 League side Tegevajaro Miyazaki on a season-long loan.
