A demon or a big brother
Oniijialdu opens on two Japanese words at once. Oni (鬼) is the horned demon of folk tales, the one Japanese families chase out of the house each February at Setsubun, throwing roasted beans. Onii (兄), with a long vowel, is the big brother, as in onii-san.
The double i decides it: a big brother. The demon only gets one.
