The word tonchi, which we usually use to mean clever wit or a witty retort, is said by one theory to come from the onomatopoeic sound tonchinkan, the clang made when a swordsmith hammers a blade.

But there are various theories, and nothing is certain.

“Tonchi” is a curious word, isn’t it? Riddles that play on tonchi are a fun way to pass the time, too.

For example, here’s a question: “What do you buy in order to keep?” The hint is that the question is written in hiragana.

The trick to getting the right answer is to look at words from different angles!

Riddles: Advanced Level

Riddle Advanced Level

The words “nazo-nazo” (riddles) and “quiz” are used with similar meanings.

I tend to think of quizzes as knowledge questions like “Who founded the Tokugawa shogunate?” and riddles as insight-based ones like “What’s something you can’t cut no matter how much you cut it?” How do you draw the line between them? When it comes to insight-based riddles—especially at an advanced level—the difficulty can be sky-high.

If you’re confident in your riddle-solving skills, give it a try! People who love books or newspapers and are strong with print might have an advantage… or maybe not—that’s what makes it fun!

Are you bad at trick questions? I couldn’t even get the classic one—“Which is heavier, 1 kg of iron or 1 kg of cotton?”—I just kept groaning and never reached the right answer.

I’m the type who overthinks and self-destructs, assuming there must be some hidden twist just because it’s presented as a question.

I can’t handle normal trick questions, so if they’re labeled “super hard,” then… As for those tougher trick questions, the rising YouTuber Chonmage Kozou—who suddenly appeared with the greeting “Hikiniku desu!”—is enjoying them too.
