Confirmed once more that Saki always looks threatening and devilish to other people, even though she does not consider herself as such

could it be that Teru also misinterpreted Saki's body language?

Is that the cause of their falling out? A misunderstanding?

Haha, why not both? Well, I don't really mind either way, but I guess you can count me as one vote for Teru x Sumire as earlier.

I agree with Sol... you really should post both - the more the merrier. ^^
But, if it isn't possible I suppose my vote goes for Miyanaga-cest.

@Keyboard
After chapter 101, I like imagining Saki as a cute wild animal that happens to be more afraid of you than you of her.
Of course that doesn't make her less scary; cornered and scared animals are usually the one that is more likely to bite you after all.

Aaaaaand, the translation of Chapter 14 is out.

..that Shiratodai girl ability is practically cheating. I wonder who'll get hit the most by that hand ._.

tsunade666 · 2012-09-13, 14:08

The translated chapter is out and there is no points -_- I can't read how many points the Shiratodai girl got but how many points is it? and I wonder who did it hit. It will hurt a lot if hits Achiga.

King-Slayer · 2012-09-13, 14:34

Lol at Ako checking her appearance then strutting out the door like she's hot sh**. Then we see Yuu being even more sweet then she is even offering a bit of her boobs to Ako. Hiroko was also awesome in this chapter and i loved her telling it like it is too Izumi. The match itself was pretty fun too and i'm interested in seeing who got hit the worse outta all of them. My guess would be Senriyama.

It's just the starting hand... she still need to complete the hand and win.

JW1 · 2012-09-13, 15:04

Interesting. I thought Funa Q was giving Izumi a motivational talk, but it was rather the opposite.

Key Board · 2012-09-13, 15:20

I think Ako and Sera just dug their own graves

though, Sera probably doesn't have the intel Ako has

But how can she not have the intel? FunaQ is skilled enough to analyze both Matsumi sisters' quirks and even noticed something off about Arata's play (at least in the anime). The Shiratodai girl's ability isn't very subtle, and once you know how it works, you can work out what her final hand is going to be. Only plot-induced stupidity would allow Ako and Sera to play into that hand, though that doesn't rule out a Shiratodai tsumo win, especially since she's so close to tenpai from the start.

ETA: Noticed Senriyama's the dealer for the final hand, so even without a direct hit, they'll take the biggest hit from a Shiratodai tsumo yakuman.

I think Sera has almost the same intel but i think that she was so revved up and playing so beastly that it might have slipped her mind that she was slowly helping her opponent.

tarajis · 2012-09-13, 15:47

Ahhh... it's all clear to me now....

The reason of the fallout of the Miyanaga siblings...
The reason why Toki can see the future...
The reason behind Kasumi's boobs...
The reason of the absence of panties in this series...
The reason why Side B has always fewer pages than Side A...
And all the other things regarding the Sakiverse...

IT'S ALL THE GOVERNMENT'S FAULT!

Assuming that Sera knows about the ability, she might've (quite rationally, IMO) decided to completely forfeit the last hand and just try to win as much as possible. Losing 16k points from a yakuman might be worth it, since she can offset that with just 2 wins (judging from the size of her usual scores), and assuming that she doesn't actually play into the yakuman herself. I'd honestly be quite disappointed if Kobayashi Ritz makes Sera play into that hand though.

Marina2 · 2012-09-13, 21:06

How about Ako end the round with her cheap hand first?

That is the best outcome for both Senriyama and Achiga. Who know, we may see an unexpect co-op play between Sera and Ako next chapter :P

Myssa Rei Moderate Haruhiist Join Date: Mar 2008 Location: Metro Manila, Philippines Age: 42	Spoiler for This chapter, after a brief browse of the RAW: So yeah, while Izumi didn't self-destruct, Senriyama pretty much dropped to third place under her turn. Sera of course, won't take it lying down, but Ako obviously is determined not to let go of the lead that Yuu gained them. By the way, what was it that Ako apparently forgot about? Someone clue me in with this one. Oh, and Sera and Ako have a bit of a back-and-forth, which culminates in Senriyama getting back second place. However in this dueling of theirs, they seem to have forgotten about Shiraitodai in the process, and that's very dangerous indeed... __________________

JW1 Senior Member Join Date: Mar 2012 Location: UK	Spoiler: So it seems Izumi needs a bit of counselling after putting Senriyama into last place. If my limited reading is right, it seems she has a hang-up about being a first-year. FunaQ has to point out that Koromo, Jindai and Kei were all first years last year; then there's scary Awai and scary Saki this year too, although pointing that out doesn't seem like much of an encouragement. FunaQ seems to have identified that Saki is related to Teru in some way. Sera shows why she was the ace; Shindouji's player seems a bit vacant; and Takami just sits there and loses lots of points. Looks like that's set to change in the next chapter, though.
