We demonstrate field-induced single-ion magnetic anisotropy resulting from the multiorbital Kondo effect on the diluted ytterbium alloy $(\mathrm{Lu}_{1-x}\mathrm{Yb}_x)\mathrm{Rh}_2\mathrm{Zn}_{20}$. Single-ion anisotropic metamagnetic behavior is revealed in low-temperature regions where the local Fermi-liquid state is formed. Specific hea, low-field magnetic susceptibility, and resistivity indicate reproduction of the ground-state properties by the $\mathrm{SU}(N = 8)$ Kondo model with a relatively large $c$-$f$ hybridization of $T_{\mathrm{K}} = 60.9 \ \mathrm{K}$. Dynamical susceptibility measurements on $\mathrm{Yb}\mathrm{Rh}_2\mathrm{Zn}_{20}$ support realizing the multiorbital Kondo ground state in $(\mathrm{Lu}_{1-x}\mathrm{Yb}_x)\mathrm{Rh}_2\mathrm{Zn}_{20}$. The single-ion magnetic anisotropy becomes evident above $\sim5 \ \mathrm{T}$, which is lower than the isotropic Kondo crossover field of 22.7 T, verifying blurred low-lying crystal field states through the multiorbital Kondo effect.
