Trying not to spoil much, there's overall more emphasis on the game in Side-A than even the original series, and the "mahjong powers" are somewhat toned down... well, with some obvious exceptions.
It just doesn't show yet because we're still in the exposition phase... which ends quickly |

They could've gone anime original for second season, though. I really wish they had too .. I mean just thinking about where the first season stopped is annoying me =_=..
If this anime doesn't stop before they reach the Nationals, I wonder if we'll see any of the 1st season's cast there with Nodoka. If the timeframe is same it could happen unless it's a true spinoff with absolutely no relation to the first season (aside from this episode).

and yeah, I hope the sale of this spin-off is good or else we won't get second season of Saki.

Provided that Achiga is only single cour, a season 3 of Saki is basically guaranteed. Achiga (the manga) will be set to wrap up in approximately three chapters with [mod edit: let's leave this for the manga thread] If the anime sticks to the one episode per chapter adaptation pacing, they will precisely cover the entire Achiga sidestory leaving us with another huge cliffhanger to be resolved, with the outcome of the final national's arc of the main Saki story.
Episode one covered an entire 90 pages of content from chapter 1 of the manga sidestory, but not all chapters of the manga are that long (although quite a few are). I am hopeful that for at least the shorter chapters the anime will add more fleshed out details and extra content (still a bit disappointing, given the extremely fast pace of Achiga-hen in general though). In any case, the material in Achiga-hen is extremely relevant to future developments in the main Saki series. It might be called a "sidestory", but any Saki fan would be a complete fool if they decided to miss it. Last edited by relentlessflame; 2012-04-09 at 15:55. |

Oh damn, this is already running?
Now I have to catch up on Season 1 quickly. I was planning to learn more about Mahjong rules first, but never got anywhere with that. Learned a bit of Mahjong from eroge-sensei But even though I managed to win against all the girls there, some rules are still puzzling... Is it important to know the more detailed ones, or is it ok to have a general grasp of the concept? Last edited by Solace; 2012-04-09 at 11:45. Reason: Removed link |
