Since I had some time, I went ahead and burned through the first nine episodes today. This show is so stylish!
To be honest, I kinda wished there was some cool down time between the first two mahjong games to develop the characters and storyline some more. I thought the transition was way too fast, and to be honest, even though I truly enjoyed both games, I kind of wanted to see the characters do something other than play mahjong for multiple episodes straight...
It's still good, though. This show is damn good at making a game that I usually see in the hands of easy-going grandmothers insanely intense. At first, I wanted to laugh... but it was too scary! XD

I want to see Akagi stab someone with his nose.
