Question for people steeped in Japanese mahjong: What is the usual format for professional mahjong tournaments in Japan?

In this case I would still say that Hisa has the advantage over Saki or Nodoka because of her experiences and general mood to not let emotions affect her style of play. Unlike the other two who start making mistakes when setbacks hit, Hisa is able to stand above it and continue as normal. In the long run, Hisa is still currently better.
Actually, she kind of reminds me of my own playing style but I am still noob at it

I'm not proficient in actual Japanese mahjong tournament rules but maybe red doras are not really used then? (And it sounds like you already translated the next episode. Looking forward to it. ) |

The table in Marisa's house has all those dora, then an additional red tile for EVERY OTHER TILE. I.e. one of the four tiles of every non honor is red. Oh, and marisa's special magic power can turn any one tile in her hand red. I was getting sanbaiman's up the wazoo . I ended up beating the other compater players with like 110,000 (standard 30K start).

If yes, I'm glad to see that someone play it ^^ I have unlocked every playable character but since I don't understand Japanese language, I don't understand some of their special powers, too bad. (Powers that show their effect on the table like Reimu,Marisa,Cirno, Lumia and Mystia abilities are easy to understand, but for some character powers that don't show their effects on the table directly, I don't underdtand them at all). |

The training camp was meant to give them a bit more of mental endurance. Hisa claimed that she usually plays logically and Yuuki and Kyoutarou didn't even know that she played for hell-waits, so she probably doesn't do so very often.

FYI the line from the preview for ep 14 that makes almost no sense is an extremely obtuse reference:
"Your back is transparent" = "anta, senaka ga suketeru ze" is a reference to the catch phrase from a mahjong manga from the 1980s "naki no ryuu" (crying dragon) which is "anta, senaka ga susuketeru ze" = "your back is dirty" (which seems to have its own debate as to what it means). susukeru vs. sukeru pun + reference to mahjong manga from the 80s. A real gut buster there, guys. Actually all the previews have some obtuse reference to something mahjong related in them that are impossible to translate without some wikipedia referencing note.
