Remarkable
Marked
い adjective
The kanji means author, but if you think about it, what do authors do? They write about remarkable or marked things, whether it's fiction or nonfiction.
Something is so remarkable you let out one jeer (いちじる) at the opposing team. Just one, because you're not that mean.
