Cheers to that. On a whole and as far as the anime goes, I don't feel either of the sequel seasons ever quite matched up to the first one but one area in which they have indeed stepped up...

I don't see how you got the calculation that Kiyosumi's gap to second would ever be 20000 then. Regardless of whether Eisui gets one yakuman or two in the first hanchan, Kiyosumi never falls behind...

The thing you're neglecting here is the 11900 points Hatsumi fed to Kinue in E4 so that Kinue would stay in dealer and give Hatsumi a second chance at her North round. Although it's true that, with...

Actually, Hisa never specifically mentioned either the North seat nor Hatsumi so that sort of specific defense would've been pretty much impossible. Ironically, it's because Sae had kept sealing...

It was luck because Hatsumi was in the exact same position in an earlier round (yakuman tenpai with a double-sided wait) with Sae not sealing her and the hand still came down to a draw. Hatsumi's...

This is a bit of an exaggeration. Sae does not at all have to activate her power until Hatsumi reaches her pre-conditions, namely completed pons of North and East tiles. Since Nodoka ronned...

Hatsumi had only a double-sided wait for her final yakuman. Given that in the digital style it's standard to riichi only with double-sided or better waits, it's pure luck that Hatsumi even got her...

The thing is, Sae didn't block Hatsumi -- in virtually any of Nodoka's hands. The only rounds where Sae blocked Hatsumi were in rounds where it would have done much more to hurt Miyamori and...

The thing is, like I described and mentioned in my earlier post, it actually wasn't a lucky matchup for Nodoka. As far as the match has gone up to now, the lucky school has actually been Himematsu. ...

This isn't really correct. Although it's true that Hisa's hands are generally pretty high scoring, she often does things like discarding dora/red fives or throwing away extra yaku like pinfu or...

The extent that it does work is all that Nodoka's playstyle should be evaluated upon. Himematsu or Miyamori's frustration cannot be transplanted into Kiyosumi's situation; and ganging up with other...

I don't think that arbitrarily changing the drawing order disrupts Aislinn's ability. If it were just making random calls, anybody could do that, not Mako specifically. Furthermore, the idea that...

Crunchyroll's translation pretty spotty this week. In particular the Eisui sequence seemed totally off.
