hikaru no go is about a boy named hikaru who plays a game called go, in saki it is about a girl named saki who plays a game called mahjong, if u liked hikaru no go, this should be interesting also.
Both series are identical in that they revolve around a strategy, board game. The main idea is the same, the main characters will fight to prove him/herself in their own sport, all the while appearing to be gifted by the gods.
Their plots both revolve around table games. The protagonists show a god-like mastery of their games, though they show no interest in the game at first. The protagonists' rivals spur them on to become better at the game in similar ways. The supporting casts, for the minimal amount of screentime they get comparatively, are both very distinctive and memorable.
The characters in Saki are all skilled female players with few skilled males, while it is the opposite case in Hikaru no Go.
