Meaning

Primary

Become

Mnemonic

When a drunkard holds a sword it becomes something else. The drunkard doesn't become a swordsman, they're still just a drunkard. But the sword in their hands does.

Hints

Picture the drunkard standing in front of you. He picked up the sword and is holding it above his head. It's becoming... becoming...

Readings

On’yomi

せい

Kun’yomi

な

Nanori

None

Mnemonic

The sword has become a saber (せい)! It's just like the saber you have! Hey, wait.

Hints

If a sword becomes a saber in the hands of a drunkard... then what are you? Geez this became pretty deep.

You slice down the drunkard with your saber and become a little more depressed than you were before.
