I play riichi mahjong but have never actually watched Akagi, so that's what I'm doing now.

I do come from /monster/, haha.

Sh-shut up!

I was the opposite, first watched Akagi and read a bit of the Koizumi mahjong manga, then tried out the game.
Turns out I hate it, feels like chink poker for retards, with needlessly complicated rules and the initial investment in learning all the winning hands is absurd. And in the end you can get completely fucked over score wise because of one bad discard, whereas in poker you can only fuck yourself if you choose to go big with a shit hand. Too much rng, and player choices are extremely limited. What was a deal breaker was a few games I played where nobody assembled their winning hand, so in the end we were just picking and discarding tiles like retards, and only I was a retard there, everyone else actually knew how to play the game.
THAT SAID
I still think Akagi's an excellent anime. And everything else Fukumoto touched, I love his storytelling.
I still want that fate extra mahjong set though

Riichi mahjong is that one game that you can't explain without sounding like a schizo.
>A dora is a tile that's worth 1 han, and you can tell which one it is from the dead wall tiles that are flipped up, but that's not the valuable tile it's actually the one after that.
Also, the luck factor is tilting, but kind of like poker where you can fuck yourself if you go big and flop, in mahjong you can save yourself by throwing away what could've been a valid hand and playing only the safest tiles. You can also play fast low scoring hands instead of big slow hands to outpace someone who you know has a good hand from reading their discards. And Akagi is fucking great for adding so much spice to it.

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying mahjong is skill agnostic, but it feels like the amount of time before the skill outweighs the rng is just too long.
>in mahjong you can save yourself by throwing away what could've been a valid hand and playing only the safest tiles
Another annoyance, you build up your combo but are forced to drop it. Though I guess mahjong has one thing over Texas Hold'em poker, in that you can actually build your hand, whereas in poker what you get is what you get. I'll have to look into some poker variants that allow for hand building in a non-retarded way.

Have you read the minefield mahjong Kaiji part? I was wondering if something like it could work IRL.

I'm a Kaiji anime only fag, but now that I know the manga has a fucking mahjong part it's next after Akagi.

>>115840
I think its immediately after the anime.
Then some time later you get like 16 volumes of Kaiji and 1 other guy playing One Poker, a game where you have 2 cards, pick one, and the higher one wins. Betting, raising, and folding works as normal.
And those 16 volumes of playing poker with 2 fckng cards are hype as hell and full of tension. It sounds bizarre when you say it, but yes, these 3 thousand manga pages of playing 2 card poker ARE kino.
After that there's finally a break from playing games, and it turns into a more "adventure" manga, and its also excellent.
