Meaning

Primary

Fake

Mnemonic

The leader gets a nice uniform for the sake of not wanting to look like a fake. The leader is a fake, he just doesn’t want to look like one. He’s not really a leader, but he thinks he should get an official-looking uniform for the sake of not looking like a fake.

Hints

Look at this fake leader. See him scramble into a uniform. Does he look like a real leader? Or can you tell that he is a fake?

Readings

On’yomi

ぎ

Kun’yomi

にせ, いつわ

Nanori

None

Mnemonic

Well, everyone found out he was a fake anyway, and now you're all going to use a guillotine (ぎ) to cut off his fake head.

Hints

Watch as the guillotine comes down. You close your eyes for a second, and when you open them you see that the leader's body was a fake! Wait, where did he go?!
