At page 2 I was like "WTF, Uchimura is as common a name as it gets" then I saw the name spelled out at page 3 and it clicked... The usual "uchi" ideogram (内 meaning inside) has been replaced with two others with a typical reading of "uchuu" (宇宙 meaning universe/cosmos/space). Neat!

One of those clever things that works in Japanese but is missed by those who don't speak/read the language.
