Oooooookay. Maybe it's just me, but I felt that there was this whole Initial D vibe around this series, particularly the whole "I don't actually like XXXX even though I'm a genius at it" thing. And at least Initial D came with the far more accessible "gearhead" appeal to it. Use the same setup in this series with moe yuri girls and mahjong of all things though....?

....no. Sorry, not my thing. Dropped.
Genius vs Luck both being vastly different, lol. Its alot closer to Hikari no Go then Initial D. Saki hate of Mahjong isn't a direct hatred as some people make it sounds but rather an emphasise on not winning this could be partly due to her wanting to see her family more (guessing).
At the end of episode 2 she won with a smile, its not something you would see someone wh hated mahjong would react. A not caring attitude is Takumi in initial I drive because I can, Saki enjoys playing Mahjong which is different.
