Shinohayu + Saki Biyori + Toki + tanoshii = lazy Ritz

Dumping the raws for Shinohayu 33

Last time Shino was dealer and won a 1000 all hand + 4 honba = 1400 all, plus 4 riichi sticks.

A good haul for a somewhat cheap hand

smiling Shino - and Sakura also had a good hand

Kano has nice reaction faces

Shino could only get a yaku with the bird and Aina changed the drawing order with her chi...

Bad manners, Kano.

But interesting, Shino's tile in the original order is also a bird.

And Aina told them about it - not nice too.

Points:
Aina 43600 Shino 32600 Kano 24500 Sakura 19300

E 2 5 honba

Shino ronned Sakura and got a riichi stick from Aina.

Points:
Aina 42600 Shino 40900 Kano 24500 Sakura 12000

This match is exciting.

E2 6 honba
This time, Shino called riichi but was immediately ronned - so she didn't lose the riichi stick ("if it passes, riichi!")

Aina 45700 Shino 37800 Kano 24500 Sakura 12000

E 3 - Kano is dealer but can't reach tenpai

Aina 48700 Shino 36800 Kano 23500 Sakura 11000

E 4 1 honba (Sakura dealer)
Kano wins this hand which ends the east wind round.

Aina 47600 Shino 35700 Kano 27800 Sakura 8900

South 1 - Aina dealer

Sakura tries to complete a kokushi musou, since she needs the points and the rules don't allow ura dora nor kan dora.

everyone knows that she is going for kokushi, and that her hand must be ready since she discarded an unneeded West wind.

And her face is priceless

...

And she got it. Like Shino is saying, congratulations for the yakuman.

Sakura 40900 Aina 31600 Shino 27700 Kano 19800

see also the board for the points.

South 2 - Shino dealer, but Aina wins by tsumo

You are so cute.

Sakura 39600 Aina 36800 Shino 25100 Kano 18500

Come on Shino, you gotta do something.

S3 - Kano dealer

She is last and needs points

Sakura discards a dora, but Shino still got a second one.

Shino calls riichi instead of waiting for the last dora or instead to change her hand.

Sakura 37600 Aina 34800 Shino 33000 Kano 14600

Kano was a little unlucky here.

S4 - Last hand, Sakura dealer

Shino only needs a direct hit 2600 points hand or 4700 points to place first, Aina is an even better position, and Sakura is still first, but she only won the yakuman hand. By winning the cheapest hand she can end the game. Kano needs a very big hand.

Aina again with the east wind... I wonder if she has a power related to it.

I don't want Aina to win.

Well, that's three dora.

Shino and Aina continue calling - both only need somewhat cheap hands to place first

but the calls don't make sense since they are not worth a yaku.

Kano suspects that Aina is going for honitsu or sanshoku and that Shino (toritsukai? bird user?) is going for sanshoku doukou with a hidden triplet of birds.

Sakura is aware that she is in danger to lose the top position

a fourth birdie came - too bad that they don't use kan dora.

everyone is counting points

too bad, she can't win from Kano

she would still be behind Sakura... but Sakura discards the same tile!

Ron! Ron. 7700.

It's the second time already, I think Ritz likes to use this rule.

spoilered for you

...

And indeed, it was that yaku. See panel for points.

...

and so Shino's match ended.

I had fun, let's play again together, but...

I was rooting for everyone but that bitch.

why is it raining inside?

Last page, and only two matches remain.

Dairoku and Onoze can't win anymore by placing first three times, they can only hope to prevent a premature win from the other two schools and gather enough points to pass which is very difficult.

.....

And now for something completely different

Learning with Tacos.

...

...

Need a drawfag or something to do this scene but with Shino and Kanna.

"It's a terrible day to be raining"
"What do you mean...? it's not raining..."
*Puts on the hat"
"Yes it is"

...

Perhaps sitting like a monk will help?

nope

asking buchou for advice?

...

"I always play tennis with my friends everyday"

Last page - but why there is no next release date?

Because we got another chapter, and it's everyone favorite Ikeda's story! With Koromo!

Hmmm, did she want to draw the triplets but the editor forced her to draw also another chapter?

three cats playing with a dog.

>and it's everyone favorite Ikeda's story! With Koromo!
Fuck yes.

...

Koromo playing with three cats.

"Do you know mahjong?"

...

...

...

>Lets play with the girl that made onee-chan cry.

As soon as Koromo left... poor Kana-chan.

...

>Hmmm, did she want to draw the triplets but the editor forced her to draw also another chapter?
Did she skip the 2016/05 issue because of the Kumamoto earthquake? If she did she might already have the chapter mostly drawn.

And now for the next issue advertisement:

the Toki spinoff manga with cover, color pages, and the first two chapters

the bonus are bookmarks with Saki / Saki Biyori / Shinohayu / Toki characters.

It was a joke.

sakisan's face near Kuroi from Kimi Shi ni Tamou Koto Nakare made me laugh but I don't know why.

pic from the magazine

...

Someone asked in one of the last threads how much does Saki sell. Found this but I don't know how accurate the numbers are:

Saki: fell from 190k to 180k

Shinohayu: 86k for volume 2, fell to 60-70k except for volume 5 with 52k. Must be Akado on the cover.

Saki Biyori sold around 20-30k copies

Ritz sold around 20k copies

forgot the link:
etopirika.blog.jp/archives/48683995.html

sounds about right.

...

I looked through the book-rank.net source, and it seems like the attention given to Shinohayu's justified, since the average numbers of the other volumes from BG are around the Biyori range (~20k).

Saki related things tend to be one of the best draws for whatever magazine its in.

Hmmm, they are searching for assistants for Shinohayu:

jp.square-enix.com/magazine/biggangan/assistant/index.shtml

Why aren't they finding Ritz some assistants

>Must be legal age of consent
>Must enjoy big breast or loli butt
>Must pose in lewd poses for inspiration

She doesn't need advertisements, she casually visits Igarashi. And then the assistants disappear (if male) or disappear (if consenting, gu fu fu), or disappear (if grossed out).

Igarashi needs new assistants, and Ritz is distracted - just like in reality.

Digital background illustrators, can work from home, all ages and genders.

>all genders
Female only pls.

...

Good job Kanna you make Shino cry.

Kanna the jobber. Better start preparing for career in Enjo Kosai you loser.

>Kanna the jobber. Better start preparing for career in Enjo Kosai you loser.
You do realize she is great at everything but mahjong? I don't think you can call her a jobber or a loser.

Should've quit playing Mahjong and start doing shit like idoling then.

Oh wait, Hayari could do both greatly!

What a loser this Kanna-sama is. No wonder Rena is winning.

What a dork.

She's great.

>Overreacting brown girl
>Overreacting dork girl
Why do all Shinohayus need to be so likeable?

futaba likes her - for how long?

and they made the same joke that I made in the last thread.

...

...

I'm a little afraid of this.

>futaba likes her
Good.

Now that we'll have middle school Shino and non-dead Toki in the same magazine the fanart needs to be real good to tell them apart.

Best part of Shinohayu because there isn't too much mahjong.

Not a lot of people today.

...

Shino is going to become the crazy bird lady, isn't she?

>tfw toki became real

Toki is now the MC of two Saki series, that means she's the rightful protagonist of Saki.

She was already the rightful protagonist of my heart.
