kaki

Let’s look for the name of a fruit among the letters lined up as “ka ki ku ke ko.” You’ll find a fruit called “kaki” (persimmon). Therefore, the answer to this riddle is “kaki.”

Tiger

Since it says “a tiger is riding,” we look for a vehicle whose name contains the characters or sound ‘tora’ (tiger). The word ‘truck’ in Japanese is ‘torakku,’ which hides ‘tora,’ so the answer is ‘truck.’

cloud; spider

The creature hiding among the laundry is a spider, isn’t it? “Laundry” refers to washing, drying, and keeping the clothes you wore each day clean. If that’s difficult, it might help to ask whether they’ve ever seen any creatures while hanging out the laundry.

tomato

If you separate the word “tomato” into individual characters and read them, from the top it’s “to,” “ma,” “to,” and from the bottom it’s also “to,” “ma,” “to.” A word that reads the same from either direction is called a palindrome, and among vegetable names, “tomato” is such a palindrome, so the correct answer is “tomato.”

rhino

Focus on the word “saifu” (wallet) in the sentence “inside the wallet.” The word “saifu” contains the animal name “sai” (rhinoceros). Therefore, the animal that is inside the wallet is “sai” (rhinoceros).

falling on one’s butt

First, since it says “mochi wa mochi demo,” the answer must be a word that has “mochi” at both ends. Next, let’s pay attention to the “oshiri” in “oshiri ga itai” (“my butt hurts”). If we combine “oshiri” and “mochi,” we get the word “shirimochi.” This perfectly matches the condition of “oshiri ga itai,” so the answer is “shirimochi” (falling on one’s bottom).

fox

Focus on the sentence “An animal that goes kon-kon and coughs.” Let’s replace the expression “coughs” with an animal’s cry. The animal that goes “kon-kon” is a fox, right? Therefore, the answer to the riddle is “a fox.”
