Akisutozeneko
Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Template:Italic title Script error: No such module "Nihongo". is a love fortune telling method.[1] It was mainly used by girls in the Shōwa era.[2][3]
Each character in the name of this fortune-telling method is associated with a word: a for aishiteiru ("to love"), ki for kirai ("to dislike"), su for suki ("to like"), to for tomodachi ("friend"), ze for zekkō ("break up"), ne for netsuretsu ("passionate"), and ko for koibito ("lover"). These initials form the name Akisutozeneko.
Rules
Akisutozeneko is performed by changing the letters of the names of a couple into numbers. For example, given two people named Script error: No such module "Nihongo". and Script error: No such module "Nihongo".:
| # | Script error: No such module "Nihongo". | Script error: No such module "Nihongo". | ||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | ひ | や | つ | か | さ | ぶ | ろ | う | じ | て | ん | は | な | み |
| hi | ya | tsu | ka | sa | bu | ro | u | ji | te | n | ha | na | mi | |
| 2 | 2 | 1 | 3 | 1 | 1 | 3 | 5 | 3 | 2 | 4 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 2 |
| 3 | 3 | 3 | 5 | 3 | 4 | |||||||||
| 4 | 14 | 4 | ||||||||||||
- The names of the couple in question are written out in hiragana. "Small" hiragana are written out as their full-sized counterparts. For example, Script error: No such module "Nihongo". is written as Script error: No such module "Nihongo"..
- All vowels and the character Script error: No such module "Lang". (n) are changed into numbers (a=1, i=2, u=3, e=4, o=5, n=1). In this example, Hiyatsuka Saburou = 21311353 and Jiten Hanami = 241112.
- After converting the names into numbers, any numbers that both names share are erased. In this example, both people have 1's and 2's in their name. Therefore, all 1's and 2's are erased.
- The remaining numbers are added for each person. In this example, Hyakka Saburou's total is 3 + 3 + 5 + 3 = 14. Jiten Hanami's total is 4.
- Each number corresponds with a character:
- 1 = Script error: No such module "Lang". (a)
- 2 = Script error: No such module "Lang". (ki)
- 3 = Script error: No such module "Lang". (su)
- 4 = Script error: No such module "Lang". (to)
- 5 = Script error: No such module "Lang". (ze)
- 6 = Script error: No such module "Lang". (ne)
- 7 = Script error: No such module "Lang". (ko)
- 8 = Script error: No such module "Lang". (a)
- 9 = Script error: No such module "Lang". (ki), etc.
- In this example, Hyakka Saburou's number is 14, so his character will be Script error: No such module "Lang". (ko). Jiten Hanami's number is 4, so her character will be 4 = Script error: No such module "Lang". (to).
- A word is then associated with the character according to the table below:[3][4]
| Character | Word associated with character |
|---|---|
| Script error: No such module "Lang". (a) | Script error: No such module "Nihongo". |
| Script error: No such module "Lang". (ki) | Script error: No such module "Nihongo". |
| Script error: No such module "Lang". (su) | Script error: No such module "Nihongo". |
| Script error: No such module "Lang". (to) | Script error: No such module "Nihongo". |
| Script error: No such module "Lang". (ze) | Script error: No such module "Nihongo". |
| Script error: No such module "Lang". (ne) | Script error: No such module "Nihongo". |
| Script error: No such module "Lang". (ko) | Script error: No such module "Nihongo". |
- In this example, the result is "Hyakka Saburou thinks of Jiten Hanami as a lover, but Jiten Hanami thinks of Hyakka Saburou as a friend".
- If step 4 cannot be performed because all numbers were erased in step 3, then the meaning is "fated person".[5]
