Just checked Saki wiki on that LOL silly me

So yeah... we have 9 months until spring in April so... 18 chapter? We can cover semi-final I guess but final will be written in the same time as Zenkoku-hen aired...

And when has Ritz ever been able to make every deadline for months? I think it's more likely Zenkoku-hen will only cover up to end of SF, leaving final and individuals for S3. If we're lucky, by the time Zenkoku-hen starts, we'll have started the SF Captain match. More likely, we'll be in the middle to near end of Vice-Captain and Ritz will have to race the anime (and the anime may overtake the manga near the end episodes as it did for S1 Saki).

Well rounds where the players aren't skipped seem to usually run 4-6 chapters on average, though Saki's round will probably get more. Assuming we don't hit a huge break, *knocks on wood*, it's probable we'll be starting Saki's round or ending Nodoka's round by the time spring rolls around.

And as it did for Achiga as well. It's nothing surprising at this point; nearly simultaneous releases with the manga as the anime nearly overtakes the source material is standard operating procedure for Saki at this point. I see no reason why we should expect Zenkoku-hen not to follow the same pattern in order to give us a proper two cours/QF + SF adaptation.

Achaaa~ but fortunately S1 is done well even though it overtake the manga so hopefully it will be the same case for S2
But in S1 ending we have seen glimpse of Vanguard match in Final round

so we can hope for final round hopefully...

But it's strange I am looking forward for SF captain match more than final captain match... thanks for that! Achiga-hen~

I have a question re: Chapter 67. When the Eisui team are watching Kiyosumi's match Komaki seems to make a reference to how they came from a prefecture where only 20 schools participated - but we can see in the early chapters that there are actually 58. Is this a translation error, am I reading this wrongly, or is there an actual mistake in the original text?

yuu-nee · 2013-07-29, 07:34

Everyone, may I ask something about mahjong? What the meaning of yakuman TEHNO (Heavenly hand)? Thank you I'm beginner

No you're not reading it wrong although I doubt it's translation error as writing for 58 and 20 are completely different. A mishap in Ritz-sensei part probably...

Tenhou refer to a yakuman, in condition you manage to complete your hand by the first initial 14 tiles when you're a dealer/oya/sit on East
When you're not in East, it's Chihou (Earthly hand) and Renhou (humanly hand) is by first discard.
I got hit by a Renhou once, lucky me~

http://www.gamedesign.jp/flash/mahjong/mahjong_e.html just visit this game for more basic info or just look at wiki. But to know better of mahjong you'd better play.

are there any news whatsoever about the main manga?

King-Slayer · 2013-07-30, 16:12

Age of Dawn officially released! pretty awesome that we get to see more of Hayari's personality and see the others outside of mahjong. Kinda curious on who the new girl is. We know that she's likely part of Hayari's team but nothing else. I think if they don't rush the spinoff should be good.

Chapters out Friday so the spoilers should be sometime later tonight or tomorrow night. Never can tell with spoilers.

Myssa Rei · 2013-07-30, 19:21

Also we learn in this chapter that Harue and Arata actually sleep together. Aside from the obvious Hayarin x Yoshiko stuff. Are we SURE Ritz doesn't read /u/, because the latter is obviously something started by the fans (remember, before this, neither of them appeared together on-panel).

tjalorak · 2013-07-30, 20:54

Hayari and Yoshiko were together in the Usuzan team intro chapter in the main manga. In verse, that occurs after this spin off chapter but out of verse, that chapter appeared early July.

No, fans have been shipping them WAY longer than that. And they were only shown together when Usuzan vows to knock Hayarin off her pedestal and put a new idol in her place.

Isn't it great, Arata? And there's no better way to boost her yuri power for the match against Nodoka. I wonder what kind of extra reward she got for her performance in the semis

Both /u/ and /a/ have had future sight for yuri related stuff lately, this is a fact. Just ask any precure fan.

OK, I worked it out. The original text is たとえ地区大会が２０校の県だとしても鹿児島の決勝で当たった方々と同じくらいは勝ち抜いてきた…ということでしょう, which as far as I can tell states even if (as opposed to even though) only 20 schools had participated, so it is a translation error.

Do you mean this part is a translation error or the translation for the start of regional tournament arc? If it's the latter it's unlikely as Nagano indeed have 58 schools participating.
In anime Mako explicitly said their region has 58 (Gojyuuu Hachi) schools participating which was less/around one third of bigger region like Osaka or Tokyo.
So far region that confirmed have less school than Nagano is Nara for Achiga, they only have 32.

Is it possible that the mysterious new girl = the legendary demon lord of Mahjong ( The World #1)

or

maybe she is Saki's mother.

Mrs. Miyanaga LOL

That would be awesome although....
the world number one suppose to be a foreigner if comment about how Kokaji Sukoya who used to be world number 2 until she fell from ranking for the lack of participation in competition that concerned the world ranking was undefeated in Japan.

Leaks for the next chapter is out. And look Mako's match is going to take more than 1 chapter. Finally!
