It looks and plays just like the other minigame linked off of the minigame page, just covered in Saki juice. (If you click the ミニゲーム link, it'll take you to a page full of flash minigames by the same company who did this one, and if you play the 麻雀 game, you'll see what I mean.)
It's only a tonpusen (East round only), too. Bummer. Was kind of hoping for at least a regular 2 wind game. Oh well. Free is free. |

I don't know... I kind of find the comedic aspect of taking a tabletop game and blendering it with a sports anime motif and a 'moe-moe' overload to be entertainingly hilarious.

Heh. Just noticed that the photo they took in Episode 19 was the same photo shown at the end of the first OP, except the first OP had a convenient glare that obscured the trophy Hisa is holding without being too obvious about it, making it look like an ordinary group photo. Nifty.

Also worthy of note is the inspired translations in episodes 18 and 19. To the person(s) who dreamed-up "What devilry is this? Those knaves' visages holds nary a trace of defeat’s color." I am certain you giggled yourself to sleep that night. And in the same spirit of "People die when they are killed" we have the gem of "If I keep winning I will not lose!" Thank you Saki production team and translators for this entertaining series. |

Heh, mahou shoujo mahjong is hilarious on it's own, but there's just too much fanservice such as these lesbian overtones, constant blushing, hinting of no pantsu and so on. Starting to feel that I'm too old for this stuff (and I'm not even nearly one of the oldest people watching this series ).
