Hikaru no Go was actually driven at getting people interested in Go, and as such guided the viewer through Hikaru ordeals, from learning the basics of the game to steadily leveling up, including a Go Tutoring session at the end of each episode. This one just uses Mahjong as a story ploy without caring to explain how Mahjong works, which is the same case with Shion no Oh. (which is one of the reasons I consider Hikaru no Go to be much superior to the other two, among other reasons like Hikaru no Go being much more believable in terms of Hikaru ad his companions strength and their learning rate.)
