Numbers in Japanese don't have a single pronunciation: both kun'yomi (native Japanese) and on'yomi (Chinese-derived) readings are commonly used. Japanese speakers take advantage of these different phonetic readings, mixing them freely to produce mnemonic phrases to remember long numbers, such as phone numbers or entrance exam IDs. This device, called goroawase (wordplay), also can be reversed to convert many Japanese names or phrases into code numbers. Goroawase numbers are read digit for digit, with each digit arbitrarily assigned a kun'yomi, on'yomi or Gratuitous English reading, often shortened to the first syllable or phonetically modified. Here is a list of digits and some of their possible readings (an asterisk [*] denotes that it is rarely used): NumberKanji Kun'yomi reading On'yomi reading English transliteration 0 零 maru, ma, wa rei, re Å�, zero, ze 1 一 hito, hi ichi, i wan 2 二 futa, fu, bu, pu ni, ji tsu, tsÅ« 3 三 mi san, sa, za surÄ« 4 å›› yon, yo shi, ji fÅ�, ho 5 五 itsu, i go, ko faibu* 6 å… mu roku, ro shikkusu* 7 七 nana, na shichi sebun* 8 å…« ya ha(chi), ba, pa eito, e 9 ä¹� kokono, ko kyÅ«, ku nain* 10 å�� to, tÅ� jÅ« ten* .

In Cells NOT at Work!, the Erythroblasts are referred to by nicknames based on their numbers, according to the Alternate Character Reading that accompanies them. 871 is nicknamed "Yanai", 328 is "Mitsuba", 036 is "Osami", 1516 is "Hikojuurou", and 3104 is "Saionji". The English translation does away with the alternate reading and leaves it at their numbers. | |

Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL takes advantage of this with their Number monsters. For instance, No. 39 Kibou-ou Hope ("Utopia" in the dub) is Yuma's trump card, and its number can be read as "sankyu" (English word "thank you") or "miku" (Japanese for "future"), referencing either Yuma as the protagonist helping people around him who in turn thanks him for the help, or the term "hope for the future". On the other hand, one recurring villain is No. 96 Black Mist ("Dark Mist" in the dub), with 96 being "kuro", or "black". And that's just two examples. There are 100 Number monsters that uses number puns like this. | |

Bleach: Ichigo's name is stated in-universe as meaning 'one who protects' but it also uses the numbers 1 and 5, something he likes making use of. He starts the show aged 15, was born on the 15th July and has the number 15 on his bedroom door and some of his t-shirts. His sister Karin calls him 'Ichi-ni', which means 'Ichi-brother' (one-brother) as a deliberate pun of the numbers 'one-two' whereas his other sister Yuzu calls him the politer 'ichi-ni-san'; as well as 'one-brother', it's also a deliberate pun of 'one-two-three'. | |

Like a Dragon: Defeating the Optional Boss in the first Yakuza game earned you a million yen and 893 experience. 893 is one of the possible roots of the term "yakuza". 56 can be read as "go-ro". Goro Majima takes every opportunity to use this. Yakuza 0: When Majima leaves behind Makoto's watch, he sets it to 16:40 (16+40=56) to give them a clue, should they want to find him. Yakuza Kiwami: When Majima tries to goad you into a fight by horrendously overcharging you for drinks, how much does he charge? 560000 yen, of course! Yakuza Kiwami 2 has the DLC item "Majima's Maji Bun", which gives you 5600 health recovery, 560 EXP points for all stats, refills your hunger by 56 and can be sold for ¥56. Yakuza: Dead Souls: The MJM56 "Crazy Dog" and MJM56-55 "Exorcist" shotguns are, of course, Goro Majima's special weapons. Yakuza 5: Tetsuo Shinada played baseball with jersey number 47 (shi-na-da, get it?) In Yakuza 0, one of the side-stories has you help a cabaret club named "Sunshine" (San-shine) get on its feet and become the best club in Sotenbori. Yakuza 2 Kiwami has Sunshine get bought out and come under hostile management, so former cabaret girl Yuki starts her own cabaret club named "Four Shine" to literally one-up her former workplace. |

Atom: The Beginning: A106, the sixth robot made in Umataro and Hiroshi's A10 series, is pronounced "A-Ten-Six". Although nobody outright calls him such, the parsing can be read in Japanese as "A-to-mu", or Atom. | |

In JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run, Gyro makes a joke while passing Johnny in which he holds up four fingers, then two, then makes a zero with his index finger and thumb - the joke is that these numbers can be read as "shitsurei," which means "excuse me." This joke is notorious among the English-speaking fandom for making absolutely no sense when the character are supposed to be speaking English. | |

Used for a gag in Okusan when the title character's friends get a hold of her cell phone in an attempt to read an embarrassing email she received. She isn't worried at first as she confidently claims they'll never guess her passcode, up until one of them immediately guesses (correctly) that the code is 093 (o-ku-san). | |

Several Kirby games have the number 86 (ha-ru, "HAL"), as a reference to their developer, HAL Laboratory. Kirby Mass Attack has exactly 186 medals. Some Easter Eggs in Kirby: Triple Deluxe, Kirby: Planet Robobot, Kirby Star Allies, Kirby Fighters 2, Kirby and the Forgotten Land, Kirby's Dream Buffet and Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe require the player to wait for 86 seconds to access them. Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe, the Updated Re-release of Dedede's Drum Dash, has 86,555 ("HAL Go Go Go") as the developer's intended best possible score on the final secret stage. Reaching level 10 in Team Kirby Clash rewards 39,860 experience points (san-kyu ha-ru, "Thank You HAL"). In Kirby Star Allies, 86,555 is the score earned for defeating the True Final Boss of the Soul Melter EX difficulty of the Boss Rush mode "The Ultimate Choice". In Kirby and the Forgotten Land, Fecto Forgo is codenamed specimen ID-F86, though this is somewhat obscured as it uses the standard pronunciation hachi-roku rather than ha-ru. In Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe, the final upgrade of Magolor's "Trickery" skill in the Magolor Epilogue costs 5,586 ("go go HAL") Magic Points. Additionally, the epilogue's Secret Stage gives you 860 Magic Points if cleared perfectly, and another 860 as the first-clear bonus. Kirby: Planet Robobot has two additional instances of goroawase not related to HAL; the "model numbers" for Mecha Knight and Dedede Clone are, respectively, #M-7110 (na-i-to, knight) and #D-0030 (o-o-sa-ma, king). |

Initial D: At the end of the manga, Takumi drives past a Toyota GT-86 with the plate number 86-239. This reads as Hachiroku-ni sankyuu (thank you big brother 86), thanking its spiritual predecessor and the series' hero car, the Toyota AE86 Sprinter Trueno GT-Apex or "Hachiroku".note Initial D is a big part of why the AE86 has become a classic car. Which in turn is the reason why Toyota made the GT-86/FR-S. A much less funny example comes in the form of Rin Hojo's "37-564" (mi-na-go-ro-shi, massacre) plate number. |

The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You: Suu Hifumi's Number Obsession is so extreme she sees numbers more like people than she does other human beings. This hinders her integration into Rentaro's Family as tries to view everybody as ones to no avail. Ahko helps Suu by helping her link everyone's name to Goroawase Numbers to memorize everyone more easily. For example, one for Mei and Mai, three and two for Momiji, eight for Hahari, Hakari, and Yamame, and so on. The sequence ends with the reveal that Ahko has become the only person other than Rentaro Suu doesn't need such a mnemonic device with. | |

Koro-sensei from Assassination Classroom is sometimes associated with the number 56 (which can be pronounced as "Ko-ro"). His baseball uniform has "56" on the back, and one Imagine Spot of Koro-sensei and Itona together has the former holding a board with "56" written on it. Also, in the same Imagine Spot, Itona holds a board with "1107" (1-10-7, "I-to-na") on it. | |

Super Paper Mario: Fort Francis's passcodes equal phrases in Japanese. The first one, 2828, can be read as �ゃ�ゃ�(nyanya), for a meowing sound, befitting the many cat robots Francis has around. The other passcode, 2323, is「兄�ん兄�ん�(nii-san nii-san), an affectionate way to refer to your master, since Francis made all the robots serve him. | |

Gundam Build Fighters Try: Super-Deformed Gunpla tend to use Goroawase in their model numbers; Fumina's Winning Gundam is SD-237 (Fu-Mi-Na) while Lady Kawaguchi's "Kurenai Musha" Red Warrior Amazing is SD-9071A (Ku-Re-Na-I). The Scramble Gundam introduced in the OVA Island Wars has the model number BN-876, which didn't make much sense...until an upgraded version dubbed the Hot Scramble Gundam was revealed to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Gundam video games, which are now made by Bandai Namco Entertainment (Ba-Na-Mu). |

Each of the gym leaders and rivals in Pokémon Sword and Shield has a three-digit number listed on their Gym Challenge uniform. Gym Challengers (including the player) get to choose their own League number, so all involved presumably intentionally chose goroawase puns important to them. Milo, the Grass-type gym leader, has the number 831 for "yasai" ("vegetables"). Nessa, the Water-type gym leader, has the number 049 for "oyogu" ("to swim"). Kabu, the Fire-type gym leader, has the number 187 for "hibana" ("spark"). Bea, the Fighting-type gym leader, has the number 193 for "ikusa" ("fight"). Allister, the Ghost-type gym leader, has the number 291 for "nikui" ("hateful"). Opal, the Fairy-type gym leader, has the number 910 for an approximation of the English word "cute". Gordie, the Rock-type gym leader, has the number 188 for "iwaba" ("rocky area"). Melony, the Ice-type gym leader, has the number 361 for "samui" ("cold"). Piers, the Dark-type gym leader, has the number 061 for "warui" ("bad"). Raihan, the Dragon-type gym leader, has the number 241 for "tsuyoi" ("strong"). Hop, the player's main rival, puns on his name by choosing number 189 for "hiyaku" ("leaping"). Bede, the player's second rival, has the number 908 for "kureba", which is close to the English word "clever". He's an Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy and exactly the type of person who would use his number as an excuse to boast, as well as alluding to the mental prowess of his Psychic-types. He ends up taking over for Opal, the only other character with a number that evokes an English word, as the Fairy-type Gym Leader. Marnie, the player's third rival, has the number 960 for "kuromaru" ("to blacken"). She's Piers' sister and specializes in Dark-types like he does. Averted by Leon and Mustard, who are the only characters with numbers on their league cards that is not Goroawase, being 1 and 0, representing their positions as the champion and a former champion, respectively. Also played with by the player characters. On one hand, official artwork shows them wearing number 227, which is an uncharacteristic "bujina" ("safely"), and is more likely a reference to February 27th, the day that Pokémon Red and Green were first released in Japan. On the other hand, as mentioned above, you can choose your own uniform number, so a smart player can write a custom goroawase pun. Klara, a Poison-type specialist in the Isle of Armor DLC for Sword, has the number 881 for "yabai" ("dangerous"). Klara is dead-set on becoming the strongest student at the Isle's dojo, in an effort to become the region's Poison-type Gym Leader (and boost her pop-idol status in the process). She quickly develops a less-than-friendly rivalry with the player, culminating in a formal dojo battle in which she dangerously cheats by dropping a toxic stage-hazard move before the player can act. Avery, a Psychic-type specialist in the Isle of Armor DLC for Shield, has the number 026 for "otsumu" ("brain"). Avery is the youngest member of the family that has run Galar's (minor-league) Psychic-type Gym for generations, but was ostracized for "only" being psychic enough to use telekinesis in a family of teleporters and mind-readers. Peony, a Steel-type specialist in the Crown Tundra DLC, has the number 082 for "oyaji" ("father"). He's a doting dad who organized the expedition to the titular area as a father-daughter adventure. |

Kamen Rider Ex-Aid: In the first episode of the Kamen Sentai Gorider net spinoff, Emu finds a broken mirror with a sequence of numbers written in blood: 201089609. In the third episode, the meaning is finally revealed. Emu himself wrote it after being fatally stabbed by Kazuma Kenzaki (Kamen Rider Blade) in a previous time-loop — "Blade is the mastermind"note 2-0-10 = Bu-Rei-Do, 8 = Ha, 9-6-0-9 = Ku-Ro-Ma-Ku. However, at the end of the second episode after Emu is stabbed again and "Kenzaki" reveals his true identity to rub salt in the wound, Emu finds the message and alters it, crossing out the 9609 and adding 9610: "Blade is Kuroto" — Emu's enemy Kuroto Dan, Kamen Rider Genm. | |

It's implied that if she kept her full given name, Miyoko (345), she might have gotten further. The creator, Ryukishi07, can be prounounced Ryukishi Reina or Rena; another Higurashi character. |

In Yo-kai Watch 3, the quest that unlocks Katie's Yo-kai form comes from Fancy That! Issue no. 23. 23 can be read as "Fumi," which is Katie's Japanese name (Fumiko). |

Kamen Rider: Kamen Rider 555 has phone-based Transformation Trinkets and uses Goroawase as the activation codes for two Riders; Kaixa has 913 (ku-i-sa) and Psyga has 315 (sa-i-go). They're not exact, but they're the closest they could get. The main Rider, Faiz, has a similar number pun in that his code is 555 — in other words, Faiz has fives. The 20th anniversary movie added a new Rider, Muez, with a similar pun as Faiz as the code is 666, or "mu"s. Much like 555, Kamen Rider Kiva has Kamen Rider Ixa, who activates his Super Mode by dialing 193 (i-ku-sa) into his phone-gun. When he loses the IXA System, Keisuke Nago tries to become a Big Brother Mentor to its new user and starts wearing a T-shirt with 753 — Nago-san — on it. Since then, 753 has become a fandom short-hand for Nago's name. It even gets referenced in Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider Gaim & Wizard: The Fateful Sengoku Movie Battle, where the leader of the Kiva Army (played by Nago's actor Keisuke Kato) wears a Martial Arts Headband with "753" on it. In Kamen Rider Decade, in Kuuga's World Tsukasa discerns a pattern in the birthdates of the policewomen murdered by the Grongi, making the cops believe that the Grongi are trying to send a message. The message in this case being "Mi-na-go-ro-shi" or "kill everyone", with shi being the next cop being targeted. As it turns out, Tsukasa was lying through his teeth; the "hidden message" was just a Red Herring to get the police out of the way guarding another cop while he used the real next victim as bait. Truly Tsukasa is quite the Magnificent Bastard. Kamen Rider Ex-Aid: In the first episode of the Kamen Sentai Gorider net spinoff, Emu finds a broken mirror with a sequence of numbers written in blood: 201089609. In the third episode, the meaning is finally revealed. Emu himself wrote it after being fatally stabbed by Kazuma Kenzaki (Kamen Rider Blade) in a previous time-loop — "Blade is the mastermind"note 2-0-10 = Bu-Rei-Do, 8 = Ha, 9-6-0-9 = Ku-Ro-Ma-Ku. However, at the end of the second episode after Emu is stabbed again and "Kenzaki" reveals his true identity to rub salt in the wound, Emu finds the message and alters it, crossing out the 9609 and adding 9610: "Blade is Kuroto" — Emu's enemy Kuroto Dan, Kamen Rider Genm. Kamen Rider Build: Kazumi's dog tag number is 90710108, alluding to his actor's previous role as Otoya Kurenai in Kiva.note 9-0-7-1 = Ku-Re-Na-I, 0-10-8 = O-To-Ya While Kamen Rider Zero-One's name is officially pronounced in English, 01 can also be read as "rei-wan"; a pun on how Zero-One is the first Rider in the Reiwa era. |

In Final Fantasy IV, Golbez's maximum HP when he fights Zemus at the end of the game, 2943, can be read as nikushimi, meaning "hatred". In Final Fantasy IV: The After Years, the Man in Black's starting HP of 2971 instead reads as tsugunai; "atonement". | |

In Final Fantasy IX, you can randomly run into a weird creature called Ragtime Mouse that asks you Pop Quiz questions. Once you answer all of them, the next time you run into him, he tells you the percentage of correct answers and if you got all of them right, he gives you 23852 Experience divided amongst the 4 party members, totalling 5963 Experience each as well as 59630 Gil: 5963 can be read as "gokurosan", which stands for "good job". | |

The names of various songs on the PROMARE soundtrack utilize goroawase: Burning Rescue's theme is titled "BURNING-RES9" or Burning Res-kyuu. Kray Foresight's theme is 904SITE or ku-rei-four-site, mixing Japanese and English. There's a song entitled "BAR2ING 4MA14YON", or 'bar-ni-ing four-ma-i-shi-yon'/'Burning Formation', again mixing English and Japanese number pronunciations (using 4 twice within the same word, even!). Mad Burnish's theme is Bar2tsush, which is an interesting transliteration of how Burnish would be pronounced in Japanese: 'bur' and 'bar' would both be rendered as 'baa', with 2 being 'ni', and a small 'tsu' character doubling up the following consonant, culminating in 'Baanisshu'. |

Kamen Rider 555 has phone-based Transformation Trinkets and uses Goroawase as the activation codes for two Riders; Kaixa has 913 (ku-i-sa) and Psyga has 315 (sa-i-go). They're not exact, but they're the closest they could get. The main Rider, Faiz, has a similar number pun in that his code is 555 — in other words, Faiz has fives. The 20th anniversary movie added a new Rider, Muez, with a similar pun as Faiz as the code is 666, or "mu"s. | |

Case Closed: Kogoro likes to use his name in number format (5563, which reads "Kogoro-san", meaning "Mr. Kogoro") as a password. The many different pronunciations of numbers are actually a plot point in several instances. In Episode 400, Ran recalls a time Shinichi used this principle to spot a fake license plate that was using an illegal combination, and she herself uses this memory to deduce Shinichi's cell phone's numerical password, 4869 (Shi-Ya-Ro-Ku, or Sherlock). This reading of 4869 is particularly prominent because 4869 is a series-spanning Arc Number, not only associated with Shinichi (as a modern and intentional Expy of Sherlock Holmes) but also with the crime syndicate he's pursuing, who notably are developing an experimental substance called Apoptoxin 4869, codenamed "the Experimental Detective" for this very reason. Its purpose is currently unknown, but its current state is used as an undetectable poison—one that they force-fed Shinichi in the pilot episode, kicking off the plot. |

Used in the Japanese translation for Chapter 2 of Deltarune: The enemy Ambyu-Lance is renamed to "Q-9"; it is pronounced "kyūkyū", which is a play on the Japanese word for ambulance, "kyūkyūsha" (救急車). Spamton always refers to himself with the overly formal and old-fashioned first-person pronoun "watakushi" — however, thanks to his Electronic Speech Impediment, instead of the standard spelling (� or ����), it's spelled "ワタ94". This additionally plays into his tendency in the Japanese script to insert inappropriate references to death, as the pronunciation of "nine-four" that he uses is a homophone with "suffer and die." |

In a non-Japanese example, The Elder Scrolls Altmer (High Elf) race have names heavily inspired by Tolkien's "Quenya" Conlang. However, The Pocket Guide to the Empire (a work of dubious in-universe accuracy), suggests that Altmer don't bother to give themselves names. When they greet, they address one another with a long combination of numbers that sounds like a name if you aren't fluent in their language. (The Elder Scrolls Online further buries this idea with a statement that Altmer have are inverse Sesquipedalian Smith which, while hard to pronounce, consist of long surnames based on family members.) | |

One Piece: All of the Yonko's bounties have this kind of pun in them: Big Mom's bounty of 4,388,000,000 has 88, in Japanese is "haha", which translates to "mom". Kaido's bounty of 4,611,100,000 has 110, in Japanese is "hyakujuu", which translates to "lot's of animals". It can also be translated in kyajyjuunoou, which means "King of the beasts". Blackbeard's bounty of 3,996,000,000 has 96, in Japanese translates to "kuro", which translates to "black". His former bounty of 2,247,600,000 has 47, in Japanese is "shishi", which translates to "one's mentor", hinting at his connection to Xebec. Though it has also been noted that this is the real Blackbeard's bounty, inflated to today's rate and transferred into yen. Shanks' bounty of 4,048,900,000 has 489, in Japanese translates to "shiyaku", which can be pronounced as "Shanks". Whitebeard's bounty of 5,046,000,000 has 46, in Japanese translates to "shiro", which translates to "white". Gol D. Roger's bounty of 5,564,800,000 has 648, in Japanese translates to "rojiya", which can be pronounced as "Roger". In the letter columns run in the manga, fans frequently suggest birthdays for characters both major and minor. Dates that become ascended by Eiichiro Oda either fall into this trope or match up to holidays that suit the character in some way. Luffy is often drawn wearing shirts bearing the number 56 (go-mu, "rubber"). Donquixote Rocinante's Marine Code is 01746. When it is read in reverse, it is 6, 4, 7, 10 - Ro, Shi, Na, Ten, or "Rosinate". |

Splatoon 3 uses this for a pun. In Japanese, Mr. Grizz's name is Kuma-san. His real name, Bear #03, is...Kuma San. Many of the locker items' prices are goroawase too. For example, the coconut cereal's price of 5572 (ko-ko-na-tsu, "coconuts"), the various flavours of munchy snacks prices of 8989 (pa-ku-pa-ku, a common sound effect for eating rapidly), the stack of newspapers' price of 6397 (mu-sa-ku-na, "ugly"), or the power clam's price of 71104 (na-i-to-yo, "not necessary"). Any time an item has a weird price, it's likely because of goroawase. |

Some Touhou Project fanworks give Gensoukyou the (postal or telephone) area code 890. (Ha-ku-rei) This comic (Possibly NSFW ads) shows off Cirno's math skills. To wit: Does this mean that Sakuya Izayoi's full phone number is (890) 398-1341? Common examples are Patchouli's 69 (after her Verbal Tic, mu-kyu), Futo's 210, ("fu-to"), Koishi's 514 (often as the date 5/14) and Byakuren's 763 ("Namusan~"). |

The MAX series of songs - with the exception of Maxx Unlimited - references 573 with their notecounts in their Expert charts. Max 300 has a maximum combo of 555, with 18 jumps of 2 notes to reach 573, while The Legend of Max has a maximum combo of 500 with 73 jumps. Max Period has a maximum combo of 573 naturally, counting its 82 jumps as one note each. Maxx Unlimited is an exception, as it has a maximum combo of 555 with 45 jumps for 600 arrows total. | |

In NEXT!!! Sound of the Future, the basis for most of the androids’ nicknames are Japanese number puns based on the last 4 digits of their serial codes, such as "4N01" becoming "Shine" (4/shi-N), "X0T9" becoming "Tech" (T-9/ku), and "6RU9" becoming "Roll" (6/ro-ru). | |

The title of Classi9 seems pretty random in English — sure, there are 9 male characters, but why replace that letter? It makes a lot more sense when you know that 9 is read "kyu", and the English word "classic" is pronounced like "kurashikku" in Japan. | |

hololive: Sakura Miko's fans are officially known as 35P, read as "Miko P". Her birthday is 3/5, as in "mi-ko", and the number 35 is often associated with her in official and fanmade contents. Natsuiro Matsuri's Reddit account is u/7216_official, "na-tsu-i-ro", after her surname. One fan sent a series of Superchats to Chloe Sakamata that totalled ¥26,816, which using Goroawase Numbers says "fu-ro-ha-i-ro", or "get a bath", referencing Chloe claiming to taking showers only twice a week. It's common to see fans of Sakamata Chloe send her Superchats totaling ¥961, reading "ku-ro-i", or "Chloe". It's also common to see fans of Inugami Korone sending Superchats of ¥563, reading "ko-ro-san", or "Koro-san", fans of Kazama Iroha to send ¥168 "i-ro-ha", and so on. |

2424, Puyo Puyo. Is occasionally an Arc Number in the minimal storylines, and often extended one digit to 24242 to be the default high score value in the games that keep track of that. February 4th (2/4) is officially celebrated as Puyo Day. Additionally, some of the games have punny titles for the sequel: Puyo Puyo Tsu (two) for the second, Puyo Puyo Sun (san) for the third, and Puyo Puyo~n (yon) for the fourth. | |

Super Sentai: Kyūkyū Sentai GoGoV was a Rescue-themed Super Sentai series that aired in 1999. "Kyukyu" means "rescue" but also sounds like "nine-nine", referring to the airing year; and "Go Go V" ("go go five") refers to Japan's emergency services number of 555. Juken Sentai Gekiranger has a character named Gou; his younger brother Retsu often calls him "Gou-niisan" ("my big brother Gou"). This sounds like "go-ni-san", i.e. 523, that 523 is sometimes used as shorthand for his name among fans. Uchu Sentai Kyuranger The eagle-themed Pink Ranger is a Robot Girl named Raptor 283. 283 can be read as "tsu-ba-sa", or "wing". Lucky's Super Mode is activated by the Saiko ("Ultimate") Kyutama; while most Kyutama are labeled with two-digit numbers, Saiko's number is 315 - "sa-i-ko". In Kaitou Sentai Lupinranger VS Keisatsu Sentai Patranger, the Lupinrangers use Dial Fighters that they enter codes to activate. Their personal ones used to transform have codes that translate to sound-alikes for their colors; Red's code is 010 (re-to), Blue's is 260 (bu-ro-o), and Yellow's is 116 (i-i-ro). The other ones have codes reflecting their name: Cyclone is 319 (sa-i-ku, which is a part of how "Cyclone" is read in Japanese - "saikuron"), Magic is 029 (ma-ji-ku), and Lupin X's X Train Fire is 218 (fu-i-ya). At least one toy-exclusive Dial Fighter, though, uses a non-Goroawase number gag; as the Christmas Dial Fighter code is 1225 after the holiday's date. |

BEMANI: On really old beatmania versions, there is a mix of the Metal Gear Solid theme where you repeatedly trigger a bass drum sample - 5 times, then 7 times, then 3 times - on sixteenths, with well-spaced single hits in between. beatmania IIDX has a song titled ".59", read as tengoku (heaven). About 8 years later we have "G59", read as jigoku (hell), by the same composer. In some versions of IIDX that have high score tables, one of the default score names is "4CTAKA", meant to be read as "Yoshitaka", as in DJ YOSHITAKA. A number of songs have begun referencing the number 753, which uses all the same digits but allows for much higher difficulty, such as Paranoia Revolution in DDR, IX in DDR and SOUND VOLTEX, and Cleopatrysm in Beatmania IIDX. Finish a song in IIDX with exactly 80% and you get a bonus of 5730 points. Then tricoro goes ahead and makes unlock conditions for a series of boss songs all revolve around 573 too. |

lowiro, the team behind Arcaea, sometimes has its name written as "616" ("roiro"). In particular, one of the reward you can obtain in the game's World Mode is 616 Fragments, and Ayu's skill picks from a pool of randoom Fragment bonuses upon completing a song, with one of the bonuses being 616 Fragments.note It's worth noting that none of lowiro's staff is Japanese or lives in Japan, however they draw heavy inspiration from Japanese music games and they commission and get licenses from a lot of Japanese creators. | |

Much like 555, Kamen Rider Kiva has Kamen Rider Ixa, who activates his Super Mode by dialing 193 (i-ku-sa) into his phone-gun. When he loses the IXA System, Keisuke Nago tries to become a Big Brother Mentor to its new user and starts wearing a T-shirt with 753 — Nago-san — on it. Since then, 753 has become a fandom short-hand for Nago's name. It even gets referenced in Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider Gaim & Wizard: The Fateful Sengoku Movie Battle, where the leader of the Kiva Army (played by Nago's actor Keisuke Kato) wears a Martial Arts Headband with "753" on it. |

In Pokémon: The Series, Jessie and James are sometimes associated with the numbers 634 and 546 (or 526), respectively, referencing their Japanese names of Musashi and Kojiro: In the Red and Blue-era episode "The Ultimate Test", Jessie and James' exam numbers are 634 and 546. Additionally, in the episode "The Purr-fect Hero", Team Rocket rides a show car with the license plate "R-634-526". The 63rd episode of the XY-era anime is a Jessie-centric one, while the 54th is a James-centric one, referencing these numbers minus the last digit. In the Sun and Moon-era episode "This Magik Moment!" when Jessie is auditioning for a role in a TV miniseries, she's audition number 634. In the Pokémon Journeys: The Series episode "Kicking It From Here Into Tomorrow!", James enters the code "634526" to access Team Rocket's secret base. |

The safe password in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story uses this. The password 9898-88241-983 can be read as Kuppa Kuppa yappa(ri) tsuyoi Kuppa-sa(ma), or roughly "Koopa, Koopa, strong as expected, Lord Koopa" in Japanese. Needless to say, the pun was Lost in Translation to English. The German and French translations had Bowser recite a mnemonic that rhymes with the number sequence as he types in the password. | |

In Kaitou Sentai Lupinranger VS Keisatsu Sentai Patranger, the Lupinrangers use Dial Fighters that they enter codes to activate. Their personal ones used to transform have codes that translate to sound-alikes for their colors; Red's code is 010 (re-to), Blue's is 260 (bu-ro-o), and Yellow's is 116 (i-i-ro). The other ones have codes reflecting their name: Cyclone is 319 (sa-i-ku, which is a part of how "Cyclone" is read in Japanese - "saikuron"), Magic is 029 (ma-ji-ku), and Lupin X's X Train Fire is 218 (fu-i-ya). At least one toy-exclusive Dial Fighter, though, uses a non-Goroawase number gag; as the Christmas Dial Fighter code is 1225 after the holiday's date. | |

Atlantis no Nazo has "Key Word ~Nagoya~" appearing over a pyramid in the 20th Zone, to the right of three Moai statues. "Nagoya" is supposed to be a clue to stand on each of the three heads in turn and throw bombs seven, five and eight times, respectively. (This text was changed to "7 5 8" in the unreleased US localization Super Pitfall II, since the original wordplay would be incomprehensible to non-Japanese players.) | |

In The Quintessential Quintuplets, Yotsuba Nakano is occasionally seen wearing a shirt or hoodie with the number 428 on it. In Japanese, the number can be phonetically pronounced as yo-tsu-ba, thus spelling out her own name. The quintuplets have names based in their order of birth: Ichika, Nino, Miku, Yotsuba and Itsuki. It seems to run in the family, as their mother was called Rena. |

The Idolmaster revolves around fictional talent agency 765 Production, whose rival company 961 Production is headed by a man named Kuroi. This crosses over with the tie-in DLC for Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation, where the iDOLM@STER-themed DLC planes were given ammo counts referencing their respective character's height and three sizes - the themed A-10, representing the full cast at once, was instead given 765 standard missiles and 70 rockets, 60 fuel-air explosive bombs, or 50 air-to-ground missiles. Other branches of the iDOLM@STER franchise would follow suit with the agency Goroawase naming motif. Dearly Stars has 876 Production (ba-na-mu - see the Bandai Namco section below), Cinderella Girls has 346 Production (mi-shi-ro, "beautiful castle"), SideM has 315 Production (sa-i-ko, "ultimate") and Shiny Colors has 283 Production (tsu-ba-sa, "wing"). |

Dr. STONE: 14 comes up a lot because it can be read as "Ishi" (stone). Senku's birthday is January 4th, which Byakuya set up as a holiday for Ishigami Village named "Stone Day". Additionally, the 14th of the 100 Tales reveals that Byakuya hid a recorded message for Senku within his gravestone. One of the visuals showing a modern-style cell phone has the model as "SEN 9", which can be read as "Senku". |

Cells at Work!: White Blood Cell has the number U-1146. "46" can be read as "shiro", meaning "white". His counterpart in Cells at Work! CODE BLACK is U-1196, "96" being readable as "kuro", meaning "black". In Cells NOT at Work!, the Erythroblasts are referred to by nicknames based on their numbers, according to the Alternate Character Reading that accompanies them. 871 is nicknamed "Yanai", 328 is "Mitsuba", 036 is "Osami", 1516 is "Hikojuurou", and 3104 is "Saionji". The English translation does away with the alternate reading and leaves it at their numbers. |

Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors has this as a plot point: The protagonists believe they are looking for a door marked with a number 9 (kyu), when in fact they're looking for a door with a Q (kyu) on it. In English, the wordplay is removed, and instead hinges entirely on the fact that a lowercase q kind of looks like a 9 if written a certain way. | |

In Kamen Rider Decade, in Kuuga's World Tsukasa discerns a pattern in the birthdates of the policewomen murdered by the Grongi, making the cops believe that the Grongi are trying to send a message. The message in this case being "Mi-na-go-ro-shi" or "kill everyone", with shi being the next cop being targeted. As it turns out, Tsukasa was lying through his teeth; the "hidden message" was just a Red Herring to get the police out of the way guarding another cop while he used the real next victim as bait. Truly Tsukasa is quite the Magnificent Bastard. | |

In the Super Smash Bros. series, Pac-Man's Final Smash has point numbers appear if he eats things, and the score caps at 7650 (an Event Match in For 3DS/Wii U and a Challenge in Ultimate both require reaching this number). Additionally, the base damage of Pac-Man's forward aerial in Ultimate is 7.65% damage. In a reference to Pac-Land, one of Pac's victory poses◊ has a sign appear next to him that reads "7650", and a retro version of the same sign will occasionally appear during the Break Time segments on the Pac-Land stage. | |
