Wow, someone actually tried translating these? Mad props. All these technical terms are kinda dry...I guess they would be (sorta?) relevant to new Japanese players though.
Anyway, lol at Mako's hand on this page. That's pretty much, like, the worst hand you could come up with in Mahjong ever.
So true. 147 of one suit, 258 of another, 369 of another, 3 winds and 2 dragons. That's pretty bad. I think the worst hand would be dependent on the dora indicator.
Screw it. Go for Kokushi musou. Might as well considering the alternatives are still going to need loads of tiles no matter what.
Bye bye~South tsumo ①RyuukyokuUmm~...West tsumo ①East RiverWest RiverThen nancha is the next to take a tile from the end of the yama (the process being called tsumo) and discard one unneeded tile of their own. The shaacha and peicha then do the same, and once everyone is finished, that makes up 1 turn.South tsumo ①"I've gone to buy some more tacos. I'll leave summing up today's episode to you."
-YuukiNothing got summed up at all.South RiverNorth RiverWhat the-? Where'd that taco girl run off to? Hm?Being the only one with 14 tiles, the oya is the first to discard one unneeded tile into the "river" (dahai).
"Dahai" is the term for the tile discarding process. The "river", or kawa, is just the name for the designated spot for discards.East dahai ①Baibaiki~n?
"Baibaiki~n" is the catchphrase of Bacteriaman from the Anpanman series.Toncha:MakoThe players continue to pick up and discard accordingly from the remaining tiles in attempt to complete their hands until only the wanpai is left, which marks the end of the round. If there's no fuuro at all, the end result on the table should look something like the diagram on the left, with the toncha and nancha having 18 tiles in front of them while the shaacha and peicha have 17 each in the river.
North tsumo ①What's with these draws...By the way, if no one is able to complete a hand before the round ends, it's called ryuukyoku.The explanation for fuuro will be given next time.
