Saki Episode of Side A

Ako, Shizuno, and Nodoka were best friends in middle school, often going to Achiga Girls’ School to play Mahjong. But as time passed, they saw each other less and less of each other. That was until Shizuno saw Nodoka win the middle school Mahjong Singles tournament. She is determined to meet her friend again, at the inter-high mahjong tournament!

The girls have to find two more members before they can be an official club, but Bansei holds a monopoly on the serious players. It is time to track down old friends and rebuild Achiga’s Mahjong Club!

Nationals begin, and there are many teams with strong players aiming for the top spot.

Matsumi's dragon road is shut down by Toki, the player from Senriyama.

Yuu promises to get the lost points back; Ako's speed play disrupts the pace of the other players.

Arata’s turn at the board went well, but it didn’t provide the necessary boost to Achiga’s points. The last player, Shizu, is going in with all eyes on her and her unique but dangerous play style.
