By having the opponents play better with the pieces they have, like remembering obscure hands that regular human players don't think of.
I dunno, mahjong is just a bizarre game to make a video game out of because it's naturally so slow and uneventful. It's like putting Bridge in GTA.
>remembering obscure hands that regular human players don't think of
no such thing in riichi >slow and uneventful
Play mahjong with superpowers game like Saki or touhou gensou mahjong
You get quite far on just dropping the most efficient tile each turn and a few simple rules. But bots can't play the game well, especially on a hanchan/multi-hanchan timescale
It's way more forgiving than yakuza 3 pool and 0 catfight fuck those minigames
i would play with you guys but i actually have no clue what is happening 99% of the time in this game. Does anyone have a pdf or something i can read to learn?
I'm playing mahjong in 7 right now and I'm trying to pretend I'm not angry as two CPUs riichi on the second draw just for the third to tsumo on the third or fourth draw like 4 times in a row
Yes the entire has been one long tournament arc after another, and there were many years where the titular character didn't even show up, let alone play a game, because other people's matches took so long.
Imagine how long the arc would be if it were played on Mahjong Soul instead with its miniscule timer

Monologues happen in slow motion and games in real life are usually about 3 times longer so I guess it would have taken 5 years instead of 20?

You don't need to know any mahjong to read Akagi, Fukumoto overexplains everything in all of his manga. I read Akagi first, and that's what inspired me to learn the game. Actually made things easier because I already knew a bit.
I watched the anime in 2021 not knowing this. I was fucking floored when in the anime it already took a while and then, knowing the show was old so it obviously was never finished, I though to see how much manga I'd have to read.
Parts 3-5 of Kaiji ran from November 1st 2004 to August 21st 2017, and lasted 385 chapters.
Keep in mind, Part 6 is also a direct sequel (since Part 5 doesn't have an actual ending either) and is currently the longest Kaiji part and shows no signs of reaching the conclusion.
Fukumoto has terrible habit to milk successful series very slowly.
It's a bad joke that all Akagi content before Washizu arc was only 70 chapters, and 200+ chapters of Washizu wanking with no resolve whatsoever
See
The single night of Washizu Mahjong took 20 real life years. The final game of that night took over half of that time.
unironically, yes.
Washizu mahjong is brilliant storytelling and you'd never know it if you only watched the anime.
Initially Akagi arrives and looks like the underdog, someone who will have to use all of his tricks and skills to win. But as the games progress, it slowly starts falling into place that Washizu is the victim here and that Akagi is a demon from hell sent to strike him down and you believe it.
It's a reversal of roles I haven't really seen done in such a fashion before or since.
I just recently started reading akagi after years of hearing it was a great manga. I had read the first few volumed years ago and enjoyed it. I have been very fucking disappointed this time when I got to the washizu arc, start speed reading because it just wouldnt move forward and washizu wasnt even compelling to begin with, only to realize there was like 15 more volumes of this shit right to the end
The single night of Washizu Mahjong took 20 real life years. The final game of that night took over half of that time.
20 years of nonstop kino...
To this day it still feels like an in-joke that people call that concept and whatever resulted from it as kino.
There is no mathematical way that this shit didn't turn into glacial autism where even the hardcore fan didn't just speedread an entire volume or quit the series for a few years hoping to move on.
I guess at the end of something like that, whatever is left standing is the most homegrown, chad-jawed fanboy.
I dont remember when I picked up Akagi but ever since that point I read chapters as soon as they were translated without dropping it inbetween (thanks sonickrazy)
So if the fates shit on your doorstep, you'll just scarf their turd up like a mongrel dog?

100% honest here. Open Mahjong Soul, use their tutorials, and then open the Setting menu, go to the last tab, and click Yaku List.
That is a list explaining EVERY winning hand.
Play mahjong souls vs bots, there's a basic tutorial to get your started. The basics are very simple.
Then you keep that image opened on a 2nd monitor or tab and you grind the game hard.
First skill set is picking which hand you want to build, then memorizing all winning hand to expand your available move pool. Then once you know everything about the game you can focus on the meta like which tiles have more values, what your opponents are playing etc.
Personally I don't find the game particularly fun to learn nor interesting to master, but I think it's indeniable that it's addicting to some extent. My best memories is being a shitter and playing with all my shitter friends.
Pff right. Then you get an opponent playing another hand and you fail to identify it and just discard the tile he needs.
That's why mahjong sucks. It's a game about "not losing".
Honitsu is the most underrated one. It's flexible, if you are smart your discards won't give your winning suite until the very late, it starts at 2han and can go only up from there, it's rare for it to be less than 3-han.
I got this fat bitch in Mahjong Soul and im trying to run into an Akagi because the sheer visual cancer these two together would invoke is fucking hilarious.
Even a basic bitch hand of triplets or sequences can end up being valued extremely highly because of other conditional shit you weren't even paying attention to.
Used a red 5 tile? That's another han. One of your sequences contains a dora? That's another han. You used 4 sequences and no triplets? Better believe that's a motherfucking Pinfu for another han.
Depends entirely on you. You aren't a real player and aren't really playing unless you can at least approximately calculate your yaku in points with only negligible margin for mistake.
My dad plays this shit. He drinks Sake, plays Mahjong, and likes Asian food, but is not a weeb and doesn't like Asian women. He's a boomer who thinks all anime is pedo shit.
step 1) live in a country with weebs
2) attend a con with a mahjong table or find a mahjong society (they're all desperate for new blood)
3) get over your crippling social anxiety
quite shrimple if you ask me tbqfh
>He drinks Sake, plays Mahjong, and likes Asian food >but is not a weeb
That ain't how it works anon. "weeb" doesn't mean "anime fan". you're dad's just a different kind of weeb.
The mahjong section made me drop Jin to Kin it's whatever it's called. Also probably why Kaiji hasn't gotten season three. I liked how Kaiji games were easy to understand unlike Akagi
I honestly didn't think minefield mahjong was all that great compared to what came before it. Even compared to Akagi and Ten, it's easily Fukumoto's weakest mahjong story. I actually really respect the anime ending with the Bog because it's a great place to stop.
I love playing Riichi Mahjong but I've never tried against real life opponents, just AI players.
It's fun. I hope to have a proper live match one day. There are so many fucking rules. I should watch Akagi again.
Are you saying it can be done or it can't? You've worded this oddly.
I think anon is saying the reason is obvious. He's probably referring to Ryanpeikou.
But the deeper reason is that you can interpret your hands for the highest possible value but if a yaku implies another by its very definition you can't add the other. A junchan implies chanta, but you can't add chanta to it.
And so Ryanpeikou takes precedence over Chitoi with 3 han instead of 2. Interpreting the hand as Ryanpeikou would also not make it able to even apply for Chitoitsu.
But yeah I think "allowed" to interpret the hand as the highest possible means you technically COULD choose lower value hands. So you could just say "it's only a chitoi". Or if you have a wait like 3345 waiting on 3-6 and you ron 3, you can choose to NOT declare pinfu and say the hand was 345 and you ronned the 3 as a single wait.
>Or if you have a wait like 3345 waiting on 3-6 and you ron 3, you can choose to NOT declare pinfu and say the hand was 345 and you ronned the 3 as a single wait.
I'm pretty sure this one isn't allowed, because it allows for shady stunts like intentionally misinterpreting your hand to prevent knocking someone out of the game early.
>Or if you have a wait like 3345 waiting on 3-6 and you ron 3, you can choose to NOT declare pinfu and say the hand was 345 and you ronned the 3 as a single wait
And hope nobody notices the extra 3/your hand being 1 tile short?
The fates never have - it is a thin line that separates man from the dogs, one mistake can send a soul plummeting to depths it had never imagined. Riichi Mahjong perfectly captures this fragility of being.
I tried to get into mahjong, I understood some basic stuff like Tsumo or Riichi. But then I abandonned with all these weird Uradora and other gibberish involving the sticks.
I enjoy playing Mahjong
I understand the order of play, the different things you can do, how to form hands, round and seat winds, I know most of the yaku
And I don't think I will ever understand how actual scoring works.
In reality Mahjong is all about getting rid of your other colors, so you at least get a multiplier from that, while hoping that other players don’t end it too quickly by playing a trash game. Every now and then someone gets an insane multiplier from all the extra flower stones they have, being East and playing a pure colored game.
I played hundreds of games and I only witnessed someone playing one of these extremely rare special games only once.
>flower stones
wtf is this chinky bullshit
Ah yes I have the pingpong quing gong flower pig dragon hand
that'll be 1.4 million point
What the fuck did you just say? Was this AI-written? The fuck is a flower stone?
It‘s the mahjong I play with my family.
Flower and season stones are stones you pick up from the wall. They are special stones, which give you a certain amount of points and let you pick another stone, because they don’t count as part of the game. And if your flower/season stone correspond to your cardinal direction you get a multiplier.
Do you not play with them?
I am curious. Do you also often get screwed over when going for a Gang (four of a kind) instead a Chi (three of a kind)? Because with our rules it‘s almost always a mistake to do that.
No one plays American or Chinese mahjong or whatever your family plays, online they all play riichi mahjong.
Why is the deviant version more popular than the original? Seems strange to me.
there's an equivalent in 3-player riichi where you can play a North tile (the missing seat) for 1 han (basically x2)
going for Kan can make the game more dangerous in that it adds an extra dora tile (each dora in a successful hand counts as another han) so it's technically not safe but it makes the game more interesting and you're a bitch if you don't
We don’t have a missing seat tho. It’s 4 players, 4 cardinal directions.
I'm not saying you didn't, retard, I'm telling you there's a variant of our normally 4-person game for 3 people with a similar mechanic to your game
reading comprehension, please

I didn’t understand any of the terms you used, so I made a wrong assumption.
It's more fun.
Chinese mahjong is a luckshitter's paradise.
Riichi is a game of skill.
Why?
1. Because weebs want to play the Japanese version
2. Because the rules are better and create a more strategic game. Hong Kong is the only other ruleset I have played, so I can't speak for all of them... but it is the world's most played ruleset. Furiten and yaku minimum are saving the game from being shit where you just zerg rush whatever sets of 3 you want as quick as possible so other people don't get points.

There are conditons you need to fulfill before you can declare victory with other conditions adding stacking multipliers
In Chinese Mahjong you can just grab whatever to my understanding.

Akagi sort of does and sort of doesn't
I watched it first time not knowing the rules of Mahjong and found myself understanding what the game was about. You won't understand the intricacies but you'll know if somebody is close to winning, playing badly, and start to get an idea of the game that will likely inspire you to fully learn the rules.
Sadly it starts explaining in detail like Kaiji only like 15 episodes in.
But it's really cool so you'll want to learn. Make an account on mahjong soul for tutorial.
All bad ideas. Too many terminals and honours for tanyao, chanta is too far away and would necessitate giving up two akadora, and toitoi is way too far away with only two pairs. Personally I toss north and 8m/8p, holding on to red/green dragons hoping to pair one up for a quick yakuhai dora 2. If the rest of the hand fills out before I pair up a yakuhai tile I throw them and go for riichi.
1 of every wind and dragon, and 1 of every 1 and 9, and then 1 tile again of any of those. 13 Orphans.
However, there are other hands that require a focus on terminals.
Half Outside Hand, for instance, requires all your melds to include at least 1 terminal. So triplets of 1s and 9s, or sequences of 1-2-3 or 7-8-9, etc.
Thirteen Orphans, having one of each terminal and honor tile, with one of them being a pair.

If the rest of the hand fills out before I pair up a yakuhai tile I throw them and go for riichi.
They're objectively the simplest yakus to go for, though.
Riichi - Keep you hand closed
Pinfu - All sequence and pair(non honor) while waiting 2 sided sequence wait.(Closed only)
Chiitoitsu - All pairs
Tanyao - All simples(no terminals and honors) (can be opened)
Toitoi - All triplets(can be opened)
Yakuhai - 3 of any dragon tile (can be opened)
As long as as you keep playing, learning and remembering Yaku is easy. As general rule, If you hand looks hard to achieve or sexy, It's a yaku for example same sequence in all 3 different suits or all in one suit and/or honors. I also recommend you keep your hand closed as most yaku are closed only.
Just curious when you play Mahjong Soul do you turn off the chi/pon stuff? Feels like a giant tell when someone pauses that someone has the tiles to chi/pon. Feels like I'm playing Master Duel all over again with ash
The game has fake pauses every now and then but generally it's good to be as prompt as possible anyway. Like, if you ever play in real life, there's no pon/chi timer. If you don't call that shit before the next person draws their tile you missed your chance, no backsies. You want to know well in advance if and what you want to call, rather than only starting to think about it when the popup comes up.
I read the bog, sad he got fucked over by the guy in the jacket but when he bought some chicken tenders with his mates I pretended the story ended there and never read further.
I remember all the hands possible and strategies but never really managed to understand the Doras at all, I only get them by coincidence giving me extra points.
there is a dead wall and at the start of the game one tile is flipped to be visible. the next tile in the same sequence gives you an extra point if your hand wins. so if the dead wall's visible tile is 5 pin, then if you were to win a hand that has a triplet of 6 pin you would get a point for each one.
When someone calls Kan to make a quad, that results in another tile on the dead wall being flipped to be visible. this time let's say it's the green dragon tile. honor tiles have their own sequence, but if your hand was yakuhai meaning you have a triple of dragon tiles and you did it with red dragon that would mean another 3 points, one for each red dragon because it is considered to come after green dragon.
finally, there is ura Dora. That dead wall is actually stacked two high. if you call riichi and then win, not only do you add score based on the available Dora tiles on top, now you get to flip some of the bottom dead wall tiles as well. If one of those was another 5 pin, now each of your 6 pin in the triplet give you two points on top of everything else.
Is Mahjong really a skill based game, like player vs player?
I read Akagi and it all feels like some 500IQ mind game bullshittery which I love, but I feel after playing for like 30 hours it feels there are less and less discard reading and mind games than I thought. Is it all just about keeping your hand and discard safely and efficiently?
I guess my point is i have no clue what the fuck akagi is doing
it's more of a statistics game than mind reading but no, real life mahjong is in no way similar to mahjong in tv/anime/manga
good players win more than bad players by a large margin but you can always lose a single match to literally anyone without it being under your control

And yet, stats can't do everything.
Akagi was entirely right when he shat on Fake Akagi.
It’s literally like poker where you just be efficient and make the correct play, until you know you are playing another skilled opponent then it becomes more free form.
My personal favorite is purposely sitting on a shit wait because I know a skilled player would not expect such a shit wait
Where do you play online poker with pretend fake money >inb4 playmoney isn't real money
Poor excuse why you couldn't win vs a bunch of losers. Yes I'm a winning z-poker player and your own made up rules are your own demise.
>People watched that shit?
It's exclusive to pachinko machines, so, no, people didn't watch that shit, we're still waiting for a proper third season even if we know it's never going to happen
Thanks for reminding of me of that chick on Twitter who was obsessed with Muraoka and went around bug chasing with homeless guys that she thought looked like him

>30 chapters around 9+ different matches and occasions >282 chapters around one single convoluted mahjong game
is Akagi the most based or most schizo manga ever?
also where are we with the Kaiji manga currently? last time i was up-to-date was the dude being stuck in a shopping mall and i forgot what chapter that was
Not much has happened since the mall. It's just Endou almost being forced to kill himself and Kaiji's neighbor having autism. It's been on hiatus for months now for "research"
It's not what i wanted from a Kaiji. Kaiji was dark and wrapped all of it's shady characters with an ominous vibe. This shit is invalidating all of that and makes mockery of characters that are supposed to be backstabbing con artists geniuses.
Salvation Game and One-Poker was kinda sick though and felt like they went back to the roots. only for them to fuck it up with a long escape arc but let's not talk about that now
And that's what so good about it.
It reveals who Tonegawa really is, he's just some suit who has to deal with Hyoudo, who is clearly deranged, even in Kaiji.
Tonegawa is not a genius, he's just a hardworking salaryman who does his best.
He did not act like a normal salaryman there. Normal salarymen don't get on the branding iron. He was absurdly above and beyond the standard pay grade to display that this callous, mocking bastard can take it as well as he dishes it out.
Anon Kaiji has always been a bit wacky under the stakes. Kaiji is a bit bumbling, and Hyoudou is literally an indescribably evil crazy old man. All of Teiai is a corporation at the beck and call of a senile old crazy bastard.
Speaking of Hyodou, I'm at the 17 steps arc right now but >lottery game ends with Kaiji swearing to defeat Hyodou once and for all >Kaiji then completely forgets about this after the timeskip, even after defeating the foreman and the Bog he never once even mentions him aside from that one time when he called Ichijou
What's up with that
He's out of reach for a fair bit. Even now he's not even thinking of Hyoudou and just kind of wants to evade Teiai, which is kind of like beating Hyodou
Yeah, there's a shitload of Jap terminology to learn if you don't want to bumble around calling things "edge waits" and "protoruns" sounding like a moron. The first time I read a mahjong thread I thought they were just reciting the Uchiha Madara copypasta as an inside joke but now I can tell you all about yakuhai atozukes and the takame/yasume for mentanpin dora dora.
Learn from my mistakes. I fucked up at leasst two hands because I wasn't paying attention to my own hand and was worried about everyone else's hands.

>see image or post in other thread

why are you like this
Yakuza made me learn the very basics of this game
The CPUs still cheat like the dirty little fucks they are
>moderate difficulty
>cpu gets richii and ron by second turn for a good amount of points
aeegheghg
Yeah, I was playing the million yen match in Y6 just the other day and they nailed me with a fucking yakuman. I mean I still won, but holy fuck.
Why is every mahjong game like this? Harder difficulty should not mean CPUs just having better luck.
Because it feels even better to topple a cheating fuck.
This is also basically what Ten is about, except the MCs are also cheating
Well how else do you manage difficulty on what's essentially a luck of the draw game other than giving the heart of the pieces to the opponents.
By having the opponents play better with the pieces they have, like remembering obscure hands that regular human players don't think of.
I dunno, mahjong is just a bizarre game to make a video game out of because it's naturally so slow and uneventful. It's like putting Bridge in GTA.
>remembering obscure hands that regular human players don't think of
no such thing in riichi
>slow and uneventful
Play mahjong with superpowers game like Saki or touhou gensou mahjong
Yeah, riichi magic isn't about obscure yaku, it's knowing to attack and defend and control the table.
Because Mahjong is insanely difficult for computers.
Is it? A lot of bots are pretty strong. The randomness probably messes a little with them, but they're still strong.
You get quite far on just dropping the most efficient tile each turn and a few simple rules. But bots can't play the game well, especially on a hanchan/multi-hanchan timescale
the best mahjong bots are better than humans already
I know both shit and all about mahjong but how do you cheat on a game with a googolplex possible board states?
It's way more forgiving than yakuza 3 pool and 0 catfight fuck those minigames
Here.
That's what items like peerless tile are for - you're supposed to cheat back
I'm playing mahjong in 7 right now and I'm trying to pretend I'm not angry as two CPUs riichi on the second draw just for the third to tsumo on the third or fourth draw like 4 times in a row
didnt the last mahjong match take like 10 IRL years to finish or something silly in the manga
The single night of Washizu Mahjong took 20 real life years. The final game of that night took over half of that time.
iirc it starts at around chapter 60 and ends around chapter 300
jesus fucking christ
20 years of nonstop kino...
Wasn't Saki also on a decade long game or tournament?
Yes the entire has been one long tournament arc after another, and there were many years where the titular character didn't even show up, let alone play a game, because other people's matches took so long.
I can't even be bothered to look into Saki more than I have already. There is just no pay off.
This is why Fukumoto is the king, baby. I wish the Bog arc lasted 20 years, too, while we're at it.
I remember joking about that with a friend and now I genuinely wish that happened.
Everyone hates the Bog while they're reading it, but only after it's over do you realize that you just read almost 100 chapters of peak fiction
I imagine it was a pain reading it by release, but reading all of it at once its so fucking good
What, was each chapter just 10 pages of each character's internal monologue before drawing a single tile?
no but insane shit happens like an entire arc that takes place in hell
Oh, so it's not just Mahjong.
it matters to the mahjong
Yes,
is right that like 20 chapters happen in hell but it's still 250 chapters long. It's all mahjong and thinking about life and death and shit
kino
that's insanely fucking gay
mahjong is lame as fuck
In the final hand there was an entire volume where they don't draw a single tile.
And it's during the game, they're not in hell, there's nothing else going on. They're PLAYING the game and 0 tile gets drawn in an entire volume
Imagine how long the arc would be if it were played on Mahjong Soul instead with its miniscule timer
Monologues happen in slow motion and games in real life are usually about 3 times longer so I guess it would have taken 5 years instead of 20?
>long autism monolog occuring inside dumb girls head
>"BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR" goes a horn

Why?
where can i learn the basics of mahjong? i really want to read akagi but i know i wont get much out of it if i dont know how the game works
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kemonomahjong.app&hl=en_US&gl=US
Play the furry mahjong game
Mahjong Soul, just don’t get suckered into the gacha stuff because it’s expensive and all cosmetics
I tried getting the hang of it by emulating a Japanese-only DS game called Yakuman DS, which funnily enough is a Mario mahjong game.
Oh instead of Jumpman, it's Yakuman!
You don't need to know any mahjong to read Akagi, Fukumoto overexplains everything in all of his manga. I read Akagi first, and that's what inspired me to learn the game. Actually made things easier because I already knew a bit.
Read Akagi, you'll figure out the very basics of Mahjong just by doing that.
I watched the anime in 2021 not knowing this. I was fucking floored when in the anime it already took a while and then, knowing the show was old so it obviously was never finished, I though to see how much manga I'd have to read.
How long did Kaiji parts 3, 4, and 5 take? Those were also all on night
Parts 3-5 of Kaiji ran from November 1st 2004 to August 21st 2017, and lasted 385 chapters.
Keep in mind, Part 6 is also a direct sequel (since Part 5 doesn't have an actual ending either) and is currently the longest Kaiji part and shows no signs of reaching the conclusion.
Yeah but only the first few chapters are part of the same night as part 3-5, the rest of the part 6 take place over two months.
Everything from hell onwards is Fukumoto's absolute peak, what an arc.
Not just hell. For me, Akagi's crazy honba chase, and the INSANE houtei are peak.
what the fuck
Fukumoto has terrible habit to milk successful series very slowly.
It's a bad joke that all Akagi content before Washizu arc was only 70 chapters, and 200+ chapters of Washizu wanking with no resolve whatsoever
See
Absolute brainlet.
Washizu mahjong is the peak of writing. Not just mahjong, writing.
unironically, yes.
Washizu mahjong is brilliant storytelling and you'd never know it if you only watched the anime.
Initially Akagi arrives and looks like the underdog, someone who will have to use all of his tricks and skills to win. But as the games progress, it slowly starts falling into place that Washizu is the victim here and that Akagi is a demon from hell sent to strike him down and you believe it.
It's a reversal of roles I haven't really seen done in such a fashion before or since.
The reversal is only part of what makes it good.
I just recently started reading akagi after years of hearing it was a great manga. I had read the first few volumed years ago and enjoyed it. I have been very fucking disappointed this time when I got to the washizu arc, start speed reading because it just wouldnt move forward and washizu wasnt even compelling to begin with, only to realize there was like 15 more volumes of this shit right to the end
Yeah, that's what makes it good you fucking moron
no it really doesn't. it makes it iconic I guess.
To this day it still feels like an in-joke that people call that concept and whatever resulted from it as kino.
There is no mathematical way that this shit didn't turn into glacial autism where even the hardcore fan didn't just speedread an entire volume or quit the series for a few years hoping to move on.
I guess at the end of something like that, whatever is left standing is the most homegrown, chad-jawed fanboy.
I dont remember when I picked up Akagi but ever since that point I read chapters as soon as they were translated without dropping it inbetween (thanks sonickrazy)

i would play with you guys but i actually have no clue what is happening 99% of the time in this game. Does anyone have a pdf or something i can read to learn?
100% honest here. Open Mahjong Soul, use their tutorials, and then open the Setting menu, go to the last tab, and click Yaku List.
That is a list explaining EVERY winning hand.
Play mahjong souls vs bots, there's a basic tutorial to get your started. The basics are very simple.
Then you keep that image opened on a 2nd monitor or tab and you grind the game hard.
First skill set is picking which hand you want to build, then memorizing all winning hand to expand your available move pool. Then once you know everything about the game you can focus on the meta like which tiles have more values, what your opponents are playing etc.
Personally I don't find the game particularly fun to learn nor interesting to master, but I think it's indeniable that it's addicting to some extent. My best memories is being a shitter and playing with all my shitter friends.
There's only two hands in this image that matter: Tanyao and Kokushi Musou. Aim for those only and you'll be a master in no time.
Pff right. Then you get an opponent playing another hand and you fail to identify it and just discard the tile he needs.
That's why mahjong sucks. It's a game about "not losing".
Nagashi Mangan too by extension
>hating on pinfu and iipeikou
ngmi
Honitsu is the most underrated one. It's flexible, if you are smart your discards won't give your winning suite until the very late, it starts at 2han and can go only up from there, it's rare for it to be less than 3-han.
>13 orphans
lol. lmao.
The literal translation is closer to like Peerless Magistrates or something
https://dainachiba.github.io/RiichiBooks/
Remember, if you're very new to the game and aren't comfortable making closed hands, be like Spiderman:
I'm still learning and yes, Terminals are poison pills for me.
I got this fat bitch in Mahjong Soul and im trying to run into an Akagi because the sheer visual cancer these two together would invoke is fucking hilarious.
So is it all about getting certain combinations to get big numbers to win?
Even a basic bitch hand of triplets or sequences can end up being valued extremely highly because of other conditional shit you weren't even paying attention to.
Used a red 5 tile? That's another han. One of your sequences contains a dora? That's another han. You used 4 sequences and no triplets? Better believe that's a motherfucking Pinfu for another han.
It's also about winning tiny hands so others don't win their carefully constructed big dick hands.
>setting up for four concealed triplets
>homosexual calls ron on a seat wind and nothing else
FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU YOU RAT CUNT
90% of the difficulty for new players is learning the tiles vs cards, getting over the names for everything not being english and open vs closed hand.
>that mahjong flash site is dead
Shame. Used to be the best place to practice.
how many hours of practice until it's fun?
i tried it once in FFXIV but i forgot everything
common sense can get you to intermediate very quickly compared to something like chess. Just play defence and practice optimal play
Depends entirely on you. You aren't a real player and aren't really playing unless you can at least approximately calculate your yaku in points with only negligible margin for mistake.
Play chinese mahjong its easier
My dad plays this shit. He drinks Sake, plays Mahjong, and likes Asian food, but is not a weeb and doesn't like Asian women. He's a boomer who thinks all anime is pedo shit.
so you are saying your dad is a typical asian boomer
I guess. He's White/European though.
Based dad
>remembering mahjongg combinations under the influence
horrifying
when I play with my mahjong lads, we always get really drunk
yaku are easy, counting fu is the real deal
I don't understand loneliness, all you need is
1) to make three friends
WTF???
step 1) live in a country with weebs
2) attend a con with a mahjong table or find a mahjong society (they're all desperate for new blood)
3) get over your crippling social anxiety
quite shrimple if you ask me tbqfh
>He drinks Sake, plays Mahjong, and likes Asian food
>but is not a weeb
That ain't how it works anon. "weeb" doesn't mean "anime fan". you're dad's just a different kind of weeb.
Weeb is a mode of engagement, not a type of interest.
It's how you like Japan that makes you a weeb, not the fact that you like things from Japan.
true, but any white guy who plays Mahjong and drinks Sake is a weeb.
Cope, pedophile
based dad
I'm taking my dad to Japan next spring, we're gonna smoke cigarettes, drink at izakayas and go to onsens
it's gonna be a great time
im gonna be in japan too anon. have fun with your dad. i'm going with 3 of my friends
The mahjong section made me drop Jin to Kin it's whatever it's called. Also probably why Kaiji hasn't gotten season three. I liked how Kaiji games were easy to understand unlike Akagi
I honestly didn't think minefield mahjong was all that great compared to what came before it. Even compared to Akagi and Ten, it's easily Fukumoto's weakest mahjong story. I actually really respect the anime ending with the Bog because it's a great place to stop.
I love playing Riichi Mahjong but I've never tried against real life opponents, just AI players.
It's fun. I hope to have a proper live match one day. There are so many fucking rules. I should watch Akagi again.
>YouTube finally found the full Akagi playlist and took it down
zawa zawa
>He still wonders why he can't have a Chiitoitsu and an Ippeikou concurrently
NGMI
Are you saying it can be done or it can't? You've worded this oddly.
I think anon is saying the reason is obvious. He's probably referring to Ryanpeikou.
But the deeper reason is that you can interpret your hands for the highest possible value but if a yaku implies another by its very definition you can't add the other. A junchan implies chanta, but you can't add chanta to it.
And so Ryanpeikou takes precedence over Chitoi with 3 han instead of 2. Interpreting the hand as Ryanpeikou would also not make it able to even apply for Chitoitsu.
But yeah I think "allowed" to interpret the hand as the highest possible means you technically COULD choose lower value hands. So you could just say "it's only a chitoi". Or if you have a wait like 3345 waiting on 3-6 and you ron 3, you can choose to NOT declare pinfu and say the hand was 345 and you ronned the 3 as a single wait.
>Or if you have a wait like 3345 waiting on 3-6 and you ron 3, you can choose to NOT declare pinfu and say the hand was 345 and you ronned the 3 as a single wait.
I'm pretty sure this one isn't allowed, because it allows for shady stunts like intentionally misinterpreting your hand to prevent knocking someone out of the game early.
>Or if you have a wait like 3345 waiting on 3-6 and you ron 3, you can choose to NOT declare pinfu and say the hand was 345 and you ronned the 3 as a single wait
And hope nobody notices the extra 3/your hand being 1 tile short?
How come Kaiji got a VR game but Akagi has no vidya whatsoever?
>going for chiitoitsu in the first place
ngmi
What Kaiji game?
Kaiji has a VR game on Playstation, you only get to play the steel beam game though to my knowledge.
I go for whatever the fates send my way. Mahjong is not a game about choices, but about acceptance. If you can't even see this simple truth, NGMI.
So if the fates shit on your doorstep, you'll just scarf their turd up like a mongrel dog?
The fates never have - it is a thin line that separates man from the dogs, one mistake can send a soul plummeting to depths it had never imagined. Riichi Mahjong perfectly captures this fragility of being.
for chiitoitsu in the first place
>ngmi
this, the only hand worth going for is Nagashi Mangan.
name 5 other animu/mango where the MC is completely untouchable and fucks everything before him
How many years until this guys' game of golf will be done?

doko
I tried to get into mahjong, I understood some basic stuff like Tsumo or Riichi. But then I abandonned with all these weird Uradora and other gibberish involving the sticks.
It's really not complicated. You should check mahjong soul.
Uradora is just a luck mechanic for riichi users.
I enjoy playing Mahjong
I understand the order of play, the different things you can do, how to form hands, round and seat winds, I know most of the yaku
And I don't think I will ever understand how actual scoring works.
>The episode after this which is a 30 minute explanation of how Akagi manipulated everyone in the game so he could bluff one tile.
CONFUSING KINO
In reality Mahjong is all about getting rid of your other colors, so you at least get a multiplier from that, while hoping that other players don’t end it too quickly by playing a trash game. Every now and then someone gets an insane multiplier from all the extra flower stones they have, being East and playing a pure colored game.
I played hundreds of games and I only witnessed someone playing one of these extremely rare special games only once.
Are you describing Chinese mahjong?
It‘s the mahjong I play with my family.
Flower and season stones are stones you pick up from the wall. They are special stones, which give you a certain amount of points and let you pick another stone, because they don’t count as part of the game. And if your flower/season stone correspond to your cardinal direction you get a multiplier.
Do you not play with them?
I am curious. Do you also often get screwed over when going for a Gang (four of a kind) instead a Chi (three of a kind)? Because with our rules it‘s almost always a mistake to do that.
That's Chinese mahjong. This thread is about the Japanese variant, riichi mahjong.
Why is the deviant version more popular than the original? Seems strange to me.
We don’t have a missing seat tho. It’s 4 players, 4 cardinal directions.
I'm not saying you didn't, retard, I'm telling you there's a variant of our normally 4-person game for 3 people with a similar mechanic to your game
reading comprehension, please
I didn’t understand any of the terms you used, so I made a wrong assumption.
Why?
Why is it more skill-based?
There are conditons you need to fulfill before you can declare victory with other conditions adding stacking multipliers
In Chinese Mahjong you can just grab whatever to my understanding.
It's more fun.
1. Because weebs want to play the Japanese version
2. Because the rules are better and create a more strategic game. Hong Kong is the only other ruleset I have played, so I can't speak for all of them... but it is the world's most played ruleset. Furiten and yaku minimum are saving the game from being shit where you just zerg rush whatever sets of 3 you want as quick as possible so other people don't get points.
there's an equivalent in 3-player riichi where you can play a North tile (the missing seat) for 1 han (basically x2)
going for Kan can make the game more dangerous in that it adds an extra dora tile (each dora in a successful hand counts as another han) so it's technically not safe but it makes the game more interesting and you're a bitch if you don't
No one plays American or Chinese mahjong or whatever your family plays, online they all play riichi mahjong.
Chinese mahjong is a luckshitter's paradise.
Riichi is a game of skill.
>flower stones
wtf is this chinky bullshit
Ah yes I have the pingpong quing gong flower pig dragon hand
that'll be 1.4 million point
What the fuck did you just say? Was this AI-written? The fuck is a flower stone?
some chinese thing don't worry about it
Flower tiles are a thing in Hong Kong/Chinese mahjong. They act as bonus points.
Does this anime explains how Mahjong works or am I going to get an aneurism if I watch it?
Just watch this simple tutorial beforehand.
Akagi sort of does and sort of doesn't
I watched it first time not knowing the rules of Mahjong and found myself understanding what the game was about. You won't understand the intricacies but you'll know if somebody is close to winning, playing badly, and start to get an idea of the game that will likely inspire you to fully learn the rules.
Sadly it starts explaining in detail like Kaiji only like 15 episodes in.
But it's really cool so you'll want to learn. Make an account on mahjong soul for tutorial.
I played Riichi Mahjong for 8 years before realizing it wasn't fun
What a miserable game
how to fix this
Fix what? Your shit luck? Your lack of faith? We can't fix anything based on your discards alone.
but you said richii mahjong is more skill based than luck based
Anon, nobody can help you based on your discards.
turn off the training wheels
>he isn't loved by the tiles
never gonna make it to nationals
LOOMS DOKO?
I just started playing the game, what kind of hand I should aim as beginner
Tanyao(all simples), Chanta (half outside hand), Toitoi (all triplets)
All bad ideas. Too many terminals and honours for tanyao, chanta is too far away and would necessitate giving up two akadora, and toitoi is way too far away with only two pairs. Personally I toss north and 8m/8p, holding on to red/green dragons hoping to pair one up for a quick yakuhai dora 2. If the rest of the hand fills out before I pair up a yakuhai tile I throw them and go for riichi.
>9 terminals and honors
Yep, looks like my haipai. Except this one actually has aka/dora.
you can build a hand with only terminal? what is this called?
1 of every wind and dragon, and 1 of every 1 and 9, and then 1 tile again of any of those. 13 Orphans.
However, there are other hands that require a focus on terminals.
Half Outside Hand, for instance, requires all your melds to include at least 1 terminal. So triplets of 1s and 9s, or sequences of 1-2-3 or 7-8-9, etc.
Thirteen Orphans, having one of each terminal and honor tile, with one of them being a pair.
They're objectively the simplest yakus to go for, though.
Sure, in general, but I'm assuming since he actually posted a hand and asked what he should go for that he was asking abot that specific hand.
I thought he was asking in general, and not for that hand specifically.
The betaori hand.
Riichi - Keep you hand closed
Pinfu - All sequence and pair(non honor) while waiting 2 sided sequence wait.(Closed only)
Chiitoitsu - All pairs
Tanyao - All simples(no terminals and honors) (can be opened)
Toitoi - All triplets(can be opened)
Yakuhai - 3 of any dragon tile (can be opened)
As long as as you keep playing, learning and remembering Yaku is easy. As general rule, If you hand looks hard to achieve or sexy, It's a yaku for example same sequence in all 3 different suits or all in one suit and/or honors. I also recommend you keep your hand closed as most yaku are closed only.

come play online mahjong cripple magic mahjong you virgins
I'll be back in like two minutes just kick my ass if I'm holding it up
3/4 anons
come on in please (please) please
4/4 we're starting
gg, Nyagger-kun ate all the rounds.
Thanks for the game, assholes.
I hate all of you.
Just curious when you play Mahjong Soul do you turn off the chi/pon stuff? Feels like a giant tell when someone pauses that someone has the tiles to chi/pon. Feels like I'm playing Master Duel all over again with ash
i only turn it on if the hand warrants calling, yeah
though the game does have fake pauses built in, too
t. pretty good at the video game
>the game does have fake pauses built in, too
I think it's just lag.
Nah, it's a common feature. All multiplayer clients have it.
Yes, except the times I intend to call on a tile.
I turn it off unless I know I'm going to go for a fast hand with calls.
The game has fake pauses every now and then but generally it's good to be as prompt as possible anyway. Like, if you ever play in real life, there's no pon/chi timer. If you don't call that shit before the next person draws their tile you missed your chance, no backsies. You want to know well in advance if and what you want to call, rather than only starting to think about it when the popup comes up.
Will Kaiji's current arc ever fucking resolve
It's been on hiatus for like 6 months now, fukumoto is making a golf series instead
He might actually die before we get to the end
Doesn't matter, the Bog will always be the ending to me.
I read the bog, sad he got fucked over by the guy in the jacket but when he bought some chicken tenders with his mates I pretended the story ended there and never read further.
To all the mahjong newfags, turn away now
I will NEVER learn how to fucking play mahjong
There should be a "you will never learn japanese" girl variant but with Mahjong
ACK
Alright where's the next game
I remember all the hands possible and strategies but never really managed to understand the Doras at all, I only get them by coincidence giving me extra points.
there is a dead wall and at the start of the game one tile is flipped to be visible. the next tile in the same sequence gives you an extra point if your hand wins. so if the dead wall's visible tile is 5 pin, then if you were to win a hand that has a triplet of 6 pin you would get a point for each one.
When someone calls Kan to make a quad, that results in another tile on the dead wall being flipped to be visible. this time let's say it's the green dragon tile. honor tiles have their own sequence, but if your hand was yakuhai meaning you have a triple of dragon tiles and you did it with red dragon that would mean another 3 points, one for each red dragon because it is considered to come after green dragon.
finally, there is ura Dora. That dead wall is actually stacked two high. if you call riichi and then win, not only do you add score based on the available Dora tiles on top, now you get to flip some of the bottom dead wall tiles as well. If one of those was another 5 pin, now each of your 6 pin in the triplet give you two points on top of everything else.
Is Mahjong really a skill based game, like player vs player?
I read Akagi and it all feels like some 500IQ mind game bullshittery which I love, but I feel after playing for like 30 hours it feels there are less and less discard reading and mind games than I thought. Is it all just about keeping your hand and discard safely and efficiently?
I guess my point is i have no clue what the fuck akagi is doing
Yes, it's a skill-based game.
Of course, you can't beat a luckshitter with inhuman luck, but the same is true for any other skill-based gambling game.
it's more of a statistics game than mind reading but no, real life mahjong is in no way similar to mahjong in tv/anime/manga
good players win more than bad players by a large margin but you can always lose a single match to literally anyone without it being under your control
gotta post this pic
And yet, stats can't do everything.
Akagi was entirely right when he shat on Fake Akagi.
Fake Akagi felt like such a waste of a character.
it is a shame all he got to do was get fleeced by Urabe and get killed offscreen by Washizu.

It’s literally like poker where you just be efficient and make the correct play, until you know you are playing another skilled opponent then it becomes more free form.
My personal favorite is purposely sitting on a shit wait because I know a skilled player would not expect such a shit wait

also where are we with the Kaiji manga currently? last time i was up-to-date was the dude being stuck in a shopping mall and i forgot what chapter that was
Not much has happened since the mall. It's just Endou almost being forced to kill himself and Kaiji's neighbor having autism. It's been on hiatus for months now for "research"
>all of /a/ and Ganker knows kaiiji
>people are still filtered by the superior fukumoto anime
sad!
It's not that Tonegawa filters them, but the narrator.
It's not what i wanted from a Kaiji. Kaiji was dark and wrapped all of it's shady characters with an ominous vibe. This shit is invalidating all of that and makes mockery of characters that are supposed to be backstabbing con artists geniuses.
you try setting up a rock paper scissors card game, mr expert
kaiji didn't even need a spinoff to ruin anything since the main series has been shitting itself for 5 years now
Salvation Game and One-Poker was kinda sick though and felt like they went back to the roots. only for them to fuck it up with a long escape arc but let's not talk about that now
anon read my post again and check which arc started 5 years ago
i gambled on one-poker being exactly 5 years old and lost. i truly am like Kaiji fr
t. chang
I'm reading the escape arc and enjoying the hell out of it. Fight me.
>captcha kyst4d
And that's what so good about it.
It reveals who Tonegawa really is, he's just some suit who has to deal with Hyoudo, who is clearly deranged, even in Kaiji.
Tonegawa is not a genius, he's just a hardworking salaryman who does his best.
not necessary. the punishment he received after losing to Kaiji conveyed that way better than the entire season of this clown show
He did not act like a normal salaryman there. Normal salarymen don't get on the branding iron. He was absurdly above and beyond the standard pay grade to display that this callous, mocking bastard can take it as well as he dishes it out.
Anon Kaiji has always been a bit wacky under the stakes. Kaiji is a bit bumbling, and Hyoudou is literally an indescribably evil crazy old man. All of Teiai is a corporation at the beck and call of a senile old crazy bastard.
>that episode where Hyoudou makes him come in to take a personality test from a teen magazine
Speaking of Hyodou, I'm at the 17 steps arc right now but
>lottery game ends with Kaiji swearing to defeat Hyodou once and for all
>Kaiji then completely forgets about this after the timeskip, even after defeating the foreman and the Bog he never once even mentions him aside from that one time when he called Ichijou
What's up with that
He's out of reach for a fair bit. Even now he's not even thinking of Hyoudou and just kind of wants to evade Teiai, which is kind of like beating Hyodou
>Kaiji was dark and wrapped all of it's shady characters with an ominous vibe.
>Implying Kaiji is super serious
lolmao
It's meant to be a self-parody spin off and not considered Fukumoto's canon.
>no Taniuchi
I do not watch such a thing
I don't know if it was superior, but it was hilarious.
EBI ROLLL~
I really need to rewatch this again
all the characters were gold. Especially that cave digger who'd go on small shopping tricks above ground
Mahjong is so fucking cool.
>Rinshan kaihou, mangan tsuma, ippen, san dora
It's like reciting some cool incantation.
Yeah, there's a shitload of Jap terminology to learn if you don't want to bumble around calling things "edge waits" and "protoruns" sounding like a moron. The first time I read a mahjong thread I thought they were just reciting the Uchiha Madara copypasta as an inside joke but now I can tell you all about yakuhai atozukes and the takame/yasume for mentanpin dora dora.
To anons who played Mahjong IRL, do normal people actually learn these or use the translated terms?
Depends. Sadly a lot use the translated ones which are cringe.
Me and my buddies use a mix. Hands are mostly the translated version though.

Rather than a piece they are separate pieces, presume he means they're not as one.
Watch Kaiji then Akagi, then read Strongest Man Kurosawa, then any of his other stuff.
