[Saki] I’m rereading Saki, but I don’t really understand mahjong or the activation conditions for the abilities.

Otaku Review Image

Saki Kobayashi Ritsu

Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:01Yeahx2

I’m rereading Saki.
I don’t really understand what the mahjong part is doing, but I read it thinking that something amazing is happening.
I understand big breasts and butts well, but I don’t really understand mahjong itself, and I don’t know the abilities or their activation conditions very well either.
Do you understand Anonymous?

1: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:03Yeahx7

I’m not really sure about it, just like with Hikaru no Go or Slam Dunk, but I’m having fun reading it.

2: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:04Yeahx5

And once you learn a little and understand the rules, you realize these guys are doing something outrageous… and you can enjoy it even more.

3: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:05Yeahx7

>>2Being able to continuously perform “Rinjō Kaika” as a special skill is seriously insane.

61: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:24

>>3I like the Nagano final of Hiteihiteirinshanrinshan.

66: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:26

>>61If we end up at the same table… I feel like I’m going to say “This is a terrible game!”

4: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:09Yeahx1

You’ll start to understand it somehow.

5: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:12Yeahx2

The Mahjong scene is pretty detailed, so I think if you understand Mahjong, you’ll enjoy it about 30% more.
The discarded tiles are also naturally represented properly.

6: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:17Yeahx4

Using the ability to control wind tiles to block the opponent’s dragon tiles and prevent the certainty of a full flush.
I think it’s amazing that it’s been thought out in terms of ability and is also interesting.
Isn’t that unfair?

9: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:19Yeahx4

>>6The wind god is a little too strong.
It feels strange that I’m in a Japanese tournament since I’m a world-ranked player in the first place.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:40

>>9Originally, they were such competitive characters against Sukoyan and Teru that even the club president with a third-year boost couldn’t handle them at all.

7: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:17Yeahx1

What’s happening now?

8: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:18Yeahx2

>>7I’m planning to go camping with Ai and Saki.

10: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:20Yeahx1

It’s funny how occult elements have become commonplace, and there are things like compatibility.

16: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:36

>>10The opinions of both sides are floating because there is enough reproducibility to study things like FunQ and Legend as statistics.

11: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:21Yeahx3

It’s like tennis, so Saki’s is also a nu-jump.

12: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:23

Did the finals end?

13: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:24

To begin with, since Mahjong is a game of chance, it’s fine to enjoy it as a martial arts manga where strong players use their luck to compete.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:29

It’s funny that Ooshiro An complains that Saku’s ability is unfair.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:31

What is Saki’s ability again?

53: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:20

>>15The bamboo material tends to gather easily, and I could see the tiles on the ridge, and I was probably controlling the remaining points.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:38Yeahx2

At first glance, it may be hidden behind strong impressions, but among Mahjong manga, it definitely ranks among the top one or two for its well-developed depiction of the matches.
Despite Mr. Gaito being able to make an early reach, he quietly changed his wait and directly hit the actual tile of the dealer, which was too skillful.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:41

I love how the way the discarded tiles are arranged reflects the character’s personality.

21: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:43

>>19Kuro-chan and my big sister were discarding their tiles upside down.
Strong characters like Gaito and Aina Moriwaki don’t get re-pied, right?

20: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:43Yeahx1

The game adaptation that became hard to understand in the Achiga chapter and showed signs of giving up in the national chapter.

22: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:44

I kind of like kids who arrange discarded tiles so that the opponent can see them.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:45

From the perspective of someone who understands mahjong, I was able to enjoy it at first, thinking, “What kind of abilities will it have this time…?”

24: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:46Yeahx3

Looking at it from a sexual desire perspective, it’s all about mahjong and it’s boring, so this manga isn’t for me.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:47Yeahx2

It’s an ability Mahjong battle, but strong people are strong regardless of their abilities.

26: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:48

Skipping over the interesting aspects of the manga’s story and mahjong itself.
I know that there are still some crazy people who are obsessively fixated just because they dislike the size of my chest.

27: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:48

It’s nice that people who are naturally good at mahjong, like Nodocchi and Atago-neesan, are properly popular.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:49Yeahx1

Since my favorite character’s team has been eliminated, there are also some who are clingy!

29: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:51Yeahx1

Besides Tetsuya and Akagi,
I don’t understand Mahjong, but it seems amazing! It’s interesting!

30: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:51Yeahx3

It seems like someone is becoming the top digital believer, but I think the one who is the most digital is Mako-senpai.
It feels like a fuzzy application of statistics.

31: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:51Yeahx1

Tetsuya is the type who finds it unsatisfying when he knows too much about Mahjong.

32: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:53

>>31I feel like there was an assumption of cheating and illegal tiles…

33: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:53

>>31I can’t help but think that you should just play mahjong.

34: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:54

The depth of the mahjong game between Tetsuya and Saki is just too different.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:55

I think the peak of Tetsuya’s Mahjong scene in terms of interest is in the single-digit volumes because of the introduction of real-world cheating and its clashes.
After that, enjoy the rough battles and human drama.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)13:56Yeahx1

Conversely, there are people who don’t know anything about mahjong but keep watching just for the breasts.

37: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:00Yeahx4

Sukoyan saw Akira-chan frequently using her cries.
Regardless of skill level, it seems that Shinko is good at that.
I really like that you’re commenting in the explanation.
What an outrageous character!

40: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:01

>>37It’s nice, isn’t it? Even though they seem calm, an overwhelming superiority oozes from them.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:00

I wish the breasts would be seriously nerfed.

39: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:01

Now I’ve finally reached the point where I can throw my opponent into a time-stopped space…

41: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:04

Ms. Suehara makes a two-tiered call like a combination of three colors and tanyao, or a combination of honor tiles and ichinitsu.
Ako-chan tends to make a cry that sounds like she’s trying to pull in distant three colors or a straight line.
I like that there are differences even with the same early leave.
Personally, I prefer Ms. Suehara.

42: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:05

Well, it feels more appealing in terms of gameplay before abilities naturally come into play.
I like the episode where the katsudon pro makes their first appearance.

47: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:16

>>42I felt like someone said that really strong pros didn’t participate in that tournament where that person competed.
Now, yes… I think that’s probably true, as the environment for the professional generation has changed quite a bit.

43: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:06

What is a mountain?

44: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:07

>>43You take the tiles, right?

45: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:07Yeahx1

You can watch all the episodes now on Abema.

46: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:11

Fiction is generally acceptable as long as human relationships and emotions such as joy, anger, sadness, and happiness are conveyed.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:18Yeahx1

What is Sukoyan…?

49: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:18

Mahjong is such an unreasonable and ridiculous game.

52: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:20Yeahx1

>>49Kanna-chan was really mad in Shinohayu, but it was also a statement that truly makes you go “Yeah.”
I guess it’s a frustrating game for capable kids.

55: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:21

>>52Noticing that it was complicated and felt like a crappy game at that time is really impressive.
Well, it’s no surprise that there wasn’t much in common with people of the same age.

50: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:19

I still think it’s interesting now, but I preferred the balance when ability users were rare.

51: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:20

The visuals are super lewd, though.
The scenario is just seriously playing Mahjong, so it’s half-on in surreal gags.

54: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:21Yeahx1

If you’re not all capable individuals or strong enough to be considered as such, you’ll just end up being a mere puppet handler…

59: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:23

>>54Well… there was a case in Shinohayu where they just went ahead and trampled on it during a game of mahjong.
When there are people with abilities or when the difference in skills is too extreme, it doesn’t even become a competition… What is the skill difference anyway?

56: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:22

There are unreasonable good and bad moments, which makes it interesting as a game.
If I were to do it as a professional competition, I think I’d go bald.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:23

There is basically no logic to the phenomenon of the ability itself, but I read between the lines of the ability meta.
The reasoning as a skill battle is well-established, so it’s interesting if you have knowledge of Mahjong.

58: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:23

I think Ishitobi is a character that seems likely to become popular.

60: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:24

Ishitori is great, isn’t it?

62: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:25

The more I advance, the more I’m curious about Saki’s family’s Mahjong.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:26

>>62Since my mother has become a famous player, I’m just having her learn Mahjong…
The goal is to train these girls to become strong athletes in the future, right?

63: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:26

The abilities of tacos are relatively, how should I put it, normal or something like that.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:26

>>63I wonder if enhancing my little buddy would make it stronger.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:26

The truth of Mahjong that says “Tenpai, instant riichi, yay yay.”

68: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:27

Kajyu and Ikeda showed their determination, but to be honest, they weren’t even on the battlefield for the competition…

72: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:28

>>68However, that is basically how powerless people are.
To be honest, although I say I’m incapable, isn’t someone like Atago-san or the club president practically a power user?

80: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:31

>>72There was an explanation about this in the latest volume of Shinohayu.
To put it simply, it’s a type that is simply superior in other ways, rather than having supernatural powers.

69: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:28

Why did we leave it to Ikeda, again?

73: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:29

>>69The strongest one is the captain, so the captain will go first.
The second strongest is Ikeda, so Ikeda will be the captain.

74: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:29

>>69I’m ranked second in the school.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:29

>>69It seems that the vanguard, strongest general, and second-in-command have an orthodox configuration.
Realistically speaking, it’s advantageous to line up the stronger ones at the top, but well, that’s probably just a convenience for the manga.

77: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:30

>>69It’s not because I’m relatively strong.
Since it’s not a knockout match, the captain isn’t in an important position.

70: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:28

Ikeda did his best.

71: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:28

High school students at the national level and nationwide-level psychics.
It’s obvious which side will win.

75: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:29

It’s nice that the three-year boost is official.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:30

The tiles answer to the feelings of dedicating oneself to the tournament in the third year and the belief in not bending one’s own style.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:30

“Bewail the thinness of the Kazakoshi layer rather than what was done to General Ikeda.”

81: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:31

Coach Kazekoshi and Ikeda! I love them!

82: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:31

Don’t make a scene.

83: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/08(Sun)14:33

Nagano was probably a really weak prefecture until two years ago…
