Akisutozeneko

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Akisutozeneko, (あきすとぜねこの or アキストゼネコ in Japanese) is a love fortune telling used mainly by girls in the Showa period.

Each character associated "aishiteru", "kirai", "suki" "tomodachi", "zekkou", "netsuretsu" and "koibito". Using their initials they would perform Akisutozeneko.

[edit] How to perform Akisutozeneko

(Incorrect somewhere)

Akisutozeneko is performed by changing the letters of your name into numbers.

1) First change any vowels into numbers (a=1、i=2、u=3、e=4、o=5、n=1)
For example: 俗語太郎=ぞくごたろう = Zokugo Tarou = 535153
辞書花美=じしょはなみ = Jishi(o) Hanami = 223112

(No 'small Hiragana' are used for this fortune telling method.)

2) Next, eliminate any numbers that you both share in common.

   俗語太郎 = ぞくごたろう=Zokugo Tarou = 535153 = 5+5+5 = 15
辞書花美 = じしょはなみ=Jishi(o) Hanami = 223112 = 2+2+2 = 6

3) Now each number has an associated letter:

あ=a=1
き=ki=2
す=su=3
と=to=4
ぜ=ze=5
ね=ne=6
こ=ko=7
あ=a=8
き=ki=9
etc.

Zokugo Tarou being 15, he will be "ne"
Jisho Hanami is 6, which is also "ne".
Therefore their fortune together is netsuretsu. (passionate)


Japanese:

『あ』・・・愛している
『き』・・・嫌い
『す』・・・好き
『と』・・・友達
『ぜ』・・・絶交
『ね』・・・熱中
『こ』・・・恋人

"Romaji":

a - aishiteiru
ki - kirai
su - suki
to - tomodachi
ze - zekkou
ne - netsuretsu
ko - koibito

English:

a - Love
ki - Dislike
su - Like
to - Friend
ze - Perfect
ne - Passionate
ko - Lover
