BUT what does counted yakuman mean then?


Any hand with 13 han or above is automatically scored as a yakuman hand.

How many yaku does saki's hand contain if she ronned off the 1 of dots straight away? Any other than chinitsu? maybe ipeikou? ryanpeikou? sanankou?

123 123 123 123 44 probably.

Pinfu (1 yaku) + Ryan peikou (3 yaku) + Chinitsu, concealed (6 yaku) = 10 yaku = baiman = 4000 / 8000 = 16,000 points total.

Note that this is different from what the characters in the anime say. They say she only has a 12k hand, which is wrong. Think the animators messed it up a bit; in the manga, Saki's hand had a 1112222333345 hand as opposed to 44 at the end.

xD Epic!

The next episode's a filler episode already... also, I like how Kanbara says when Yumi and Momoko was doing a yuri moment: "as the President, I need to watch over my members."

XDDDDDDDD

Nicely done episode. It never fails to entertain me how dramatic anime creators can make the process of drawing a tile be.

Although I think Saki got a few of those Washizu RONx20 orgasmic chemicals in her head there for a moment after her draw. :D

It probably would be for a while, but I suspect I would eventually tire of the lightning trails, hurricane winds, shocked spit-screens, choral music, and other assorted pyrotechnics every time I started my car or flushed my toilet or whatever.

Great episode, awesome comeback too ! It's pretty sure they'll make a second season now, only 6 episodes left, next one is a filler. (and i think ep 21 will be one too)

This episode is best episode even I’ve seem for a while. It has a few emotion scenes as I cried a bit. I’m happy to see that Koromo finally knows she has friends who want to play mahjong with her even though, she took her loss hardly, but she seems to be happy enough as her friends are there for her. Saki and Nodoka asleep on the train holding hands were cute. I am not sure for five episodes left, but I hope there’s few yuri scenes for Nodoka x Saki, and I still hope there’s a second season as I am aware that manga is little behind. I am more interesting in Saki’s sister as her name is Teru.

It is individuals if you are not have seing the episode 20 previews yet. I can't wait by tommorow to watch it.
I feel about making kan three times in rows making me feel like trying it, next time I would like to see a 4th kan that's even harder to make.

Saki she has incredible luck.

Am I the only one who dislike the outcome?

I hate how Saki just pull that move out of no where and win it. I wanted either Koromo or Yumi to win. (I can't see the kitty cat win)

It's sad that Kazekoshi can't protect the massive lead Mihoko build for them. If only Mihoko's in the Taishou round... second thought, thank god she's not, Jun would've eliminate Yuuki in one round and end the tournament.

Decent ending to an okay series.

Still, that luck. Makes it hard to care. Saki was pretty boring as a character.

Well, Touka can be an idiot at times, but at least she's an idiot with good intentions.

And well, just as expected, between Saki and Amae, the others were pretty much in a hopeless situation.

I couldn't help but ROFL during that last hand. I know it's just an anime but damn, that was just too convenient.

If I was sitting at the table, I'd be calling Saki a cheater. I'd be all like " YOU MESSED WITH THE TILES YOU *****"

Well the one Question on my mind that i never heard anyone ask or talk about is what trophy and award did Saki get. Who dose the Trophy and Plaque belong to. Did Saki Get MVP, Trophy, Plaque or Something. If You ask me She should have gotten Koromo's MVP title a Trophy or a Plaque.

I knew that there would be crying people in the end but the butler's tear was the most moving, lol.

Saki was high throughout the entire episode, which made me feel kinda bad for her win against the hard tries of Tsuruga and Kazekoshi. Still, I'm happy that our team made it in the end, the journey to this point felt so long, I can't imagine what would it be on the road to the Nationals.
