I’m a little bit confused. When you say that one person is obvious, meaning their person’s quality, what are you saying?
- that they are clear and without ambiguity in their opinions.
- that they are predictable in their opinions or behaviour.
- that they are boring.

When talking about a person, a native speaker might say the following to mean the same thing:
His intention is obvious. (We know what he’s trying to do. It’s not subtle or hidden.)
He’s being obvious.
He’s obvious. (It sounds a little incomplete, but it’s typical of the way native speakers shorten things. If I heard a non-native speaker say that, I might doubt the meaning)
