    The double yakuman... will vanish...
[00:10] (Flashback) was
    Do not worry!
[00:13] (Flashback) was
    I will draw that north wind
    with this hand right here!
[00:21] (Flashback) was
    I wanted to burn you to cinders!
[00:30] (Flashback) suz
    Washizu-sama!
[00:31] (Flashback) oka
    He took it!
[00:32] (Flashback) Guy
    We did it!
[00:32] (Flashback) oka
    96,000 points!
[00:33] (Flashback) guy
    A double yakuman!
    This guarantees our victory!
[00:35] (Flashback) was
    I had no intention to win there!
[00:41] (Flashback) aka
    It looks like you weren't able to burn
    those seeds of fear to cinders.
[00:49] (Flashback) aka
    Give it up already, Washizu Iwao.
[00:53] (Flashback) aka
    You, too, will die.
[00:56] (Flashback) aka
    With all the regrets you have now.
[01:07] Men
    We knew you could do it, Washizu-sama!
[01:09] Men
    Nearly 100,000 points separate you from Akagi.
[01:12] Men
    You did it! You finally did it.
[01:15] Oka
    Washizu-sama?
[01:16] Oka
    Are you all right?
[01:21] Was
    I could have killed him with a tsumo!
[01:26] Was
    I failed to finish him!
[01:29] Oka
    What are you saying, sir?
[01:31] Oka
    You finished him!
[01:34] Guy
    A dealer's double yakuman.
[01:35] Guy
    Tsuuiisou, shousuushii.
[01:37] Guy
    With this, you're now 99,000
    points ahead of Akagi.
[01:41] Oka
    This gap of nearly 100,000
    points is overwhelming.
[01:44] Oka
    Akagi or not, he can't
    possibly regain the lead now.
[01:47] Oka
    Your victory is practically ensured.
[01:52] Yasu
    Damn it.
[01:54] Yasu
    99,000 points...
[01:57] Yasu
    This is insane.
[01:58] oug
    And only six hands are left.
[02:01] oug
    If you don't regain the lead in the
    next six hands, we're all dead.
[02:08] Yasu
    I'm sorry.
[02:09] Yasu
    If I hadn't let him call that east wind,
    this might not have happened.
[02:22] (Flashback) was
    This east wind. Pon!
[02:24] (Flashback) yas
    Impossible! You threw it away!
    You broke your south wind triplet!
[02:28] (Flashback) was
    I had to do that, or you wouldn't
    have discarded the east wind.
[02:32] (Flashback) Yasu
    Damn... How could I mess this up?
[02:35] Aka
    Stop it.
[02:37] Yasu
    Akagi...
[02:41] Aka
    Just so you know,
[02:43] Aka
    I intend to win.
[02:58] Aka
    Stop dwelling on a hand that's already over.
[03:07] Aka
    We're starting.
[03:09] Aka
    East Hand 3, bonus 2.
[03:12] Aka
    It's not over.
[03:14] Aka
    The battle's not over yet.
[03:20] Aka
    Just so you know,
[03:24] Aka
    I intend to win.
[03:33] Was
    How amusing!
SIGN    Episode 9
SIGN    Washizu Mahjong
[03:54] Nar
    Washizu Mahjong.
[03:58] Nar
    These are the tiles used.
[04:03] Nar
    Three of the four tiles in
    each suit are transparent,
[04:06] Nar
    making their faces visible even from the back,
[04:11] Nar
    and only one is a regular tile
    with a black back.
[04:18] Nar
    No walls are built in Washizu Mahjong.
[04:22] Nar
    Tiles for the starting hand and each draw are
    taken from a hole in the middle of the table,
[04:31] Nar
    wearing a leather glove on the right hand
    to prevent feeling which tile is grabbed.
[04:51] Nar
    Once the starting hands are drawn,
    the dealer draws one more tile from the hole.
[04:55] Nar
    This is the dora indicator.
[05:00] Nar
    The same applies to reverse
    dora and new dora from kan,
[05:06] Nar
    which are drawn from the
    hole when the need arises.
[05:12] Nar
    If Akagi can survive through six East-South
    matches with these rules, his side wins.
[05:18] Nar
    Should he die before then,
[05:22] Nar
    he will lose all that he had
    amassed up to that point,
[05:26] Nar
    and victory will go to Washizu's side.
SIGN    1000 points = 1 million
[05:30] Nar
    The rate is set at 1,000 points
    being worth 1 million yen,
[05:33] Nar
    or 100 cc of blood.
SIGN    1000 points = 100 cc of blood
[05:36] Nar
    It's a one-on-one match
    between Akagi and Washizu.
[05:40] Nar
    At the end of each East-South match,
    points are tallied up, including rank bonuses.
[05:46] Nar
    Additionally, bonus payments
    are due every time a direct hit
[05:51] Nar
    or a tsumo win causes points to trade
    hands between Akagi and Washizu.
[05:57] Nar
    These payments are made
    immediately, in cash or blood.
[06:05] Nar
    This is the essence of Washizu Mahjong.

SIGN    East Hand 3, Bonus 2
[06:22] oug
    Such a genius, and he's
    saying he intends to win.
[06:27] oug
    What choice do I have but to believe him?
[06:31] oug
    99,000 points.
[06:34] oug
    If anyone can overcome such
    a hopeless gap, it's Akagi.
[06:39] Nar
    However, Akagi's starting hand is awful.
[06:43] Nar
    He has no melds, and he has eight
    honor and terminal tiles of seven types.
[06:48] Nar
    The only thing that could potentially
    come of it is a kokushi musou.
SIGN    Kokushi musou: Yakuman hand with one of each terminal and honor tile, plus one tile that matches any of the other 13.
[06:53] Nar
    Meanwhile,
[06:54] Nar
    eleven of Washizu's tiles are
    unique terminal and honor tiles.
[06:59] Nar
    Here, too, the scent of a
    kokushi musou is in the air.
[07:06] Nar
    They both have a chance of a kokushi,
    but their hands are worlds apart.
[07:21] Was
    Good!
[07:23] Was
    One tile from tenpai in just two turns!
[07:26] Was
    The kokushi is right in front of me.
[08:12] Was
    I got it! The 9 of bamboo!
[08:15] Was
    The kokushi for the yakuman
    that will finish him is in tenpai!
[08:18] Was
    I'm waiting on the white dragon.
[08:21] Was
    If I win with this kokushi, even if it's
    played into my hand, that's 48,600 points.
[08:27] Was
    The gap between Akagi and me will
    widen to almost 150,000 points!
[08:33] Was
    You blabbered that you intend
    to win, but look at you.
[08:38] Was
    Have you run out of tricks to play?
[08:43] oug
    What's going on?
[08:45] oug
    I've got a bad feeling.
[08:47] oug
    Don't tell me...
[08:49] oug
    Washizu's actually in tenpai, with a kokushi?!
[08:54] oug
    He's got each 1 and 9 tile and each honor
    tile, no duplicates, and he's in tenpai?
[08:58] oug
    Impossible!
[09:00] oug
    If it's true, we're doomed.
[09:02] oug
    He'll win!
[09:04] oug
    If that's the wave Washizu's riding,
    he's likely to win within three turns.
[09:10] oug
    Damn it...
[09:12] oug
    His hand is still nowhere.
[09:14] oug
    We're doomed.
[09:16] oug
    He can't fight Washizu's brute luck.
[09:18] oug
    He's too fast.
[09:21] oug
    The match will be decided before
    our side can do a single thing!
[09:25] Aka
    I've caught you.
[09:32] Aka
    Riichi.
[09:39] oug
    R-Riichi?
[09:42] oug
    He can't be serious. He's too far away.
[09:45] oug
    What's the point of calling riichi when
    you're not anywhere close to tenpai?
[09:49] oug
    He'll figure out right away that it's a bluff.
[09:56] oug
    Wait, I get it.
[09:58] oug
    From Washizu's angle,
    Akagi's hand looks like this.
[10:04] oug
    If you assume that all the black
    tiles fit into the crucial spots,
[10:09] oug
    that the ideal lineup of tiles is already here,
[10:14] oug
    then it's just barely possible.
[10:16] oug
    An imaginary, fictitious, hypothetical,
[10:19] oug
    illusionary kokushi is possible!
[10:20] oug
    He's back on his feet.
[10:23] oug
    This kokushi musou face-off is something else.
[10:27] oug
    Akagi was building it...
[10:30] oug
    A totally unexpected castle!
[10:33] oug
    An illusionary castle.
[10:35] oug
    An illusionary kokushi!
[10:37] Was
    What, what, what, what, what, what?
[10:42] Guy
    Washizu-sama, this is...
[10:44] Was
    Not a problem.
[10:47] Was
    If I draw my winning tile now, it's all over.
[10:53] Guy
    Yes, sir...
[10:56] Was
    I'm drawing it...
[10:59] oug
    If Washizu draws it, that's it. Akagi's dead!
[11:04] oug
    Please, don't draw it!
[11:06] oug
    Don't draw it!
[11:19] oug
    The west wind!
[11:21] Nar
    If, hypothetically, Akagi were
    in tenpai with a kokushi hand,
[11:25] Nar
    the 9 of characters, the 9 of bamboo,
[11:27] Nar
    the east wind, the north
    wind, the white dragon,
[11:30] Nar
    and the west wind could be his winning tiles.
[11:35] Was
    I expect nothing less of Akagi Shigeru.
[11:38] Was
    Even when your chips are
    down, you're on my tail.
[11:44] Was
    A praiseworthy kokushi.
[11:49] Was
    You did well to complete it.
[11:56] Was
    However, it is nothing but a paper tiger.
[12:00] Was
    A gutsy bluff.
[12:03] Was
    I'll discard this west wind for you.
[12:09] All
    Washizu-sama!
[12:10] Was
    What?!
[12:12] All
    You mustn't.
[12:13] All
    You must avoid a kokushi direct hit!
[12:16] Was
    It's impossible!
[12:18] Oku
    That does seem likely...
[12:19] Was
    He's merely using the opaque tiles to
    create a bluff that gives him a way out.
[12:25] Was
    I am 100% certain.
[12:30] Oku
    But that wouldn't explain the
    opaque tile on the second turn.
[12:36] Was
    Opaque tile?
[12:37] Oku
    Once Akagi saw the direction
    your hand was taking,
[12:40] Oku
    he must have wanted every single opaque tile.
[12:43] Oku
    And yet, on only the second turn,
    he discarded an opaque tile.
[12:47] Oku
    Which means there may be another possibility here.
[12:51] Was
    Possibility?
[12:53] Aka
    I left it there.
[12:55] Aka
    I sacrificed speed to do it.
[12:58] Aka
    My hand was one step slower,
[13:00] Aka
    but once I got to my riichi,
    that opaque tile revealed its power.
[13:07] Aka
    The power to sow the seed of confusion.
[13:10] Aka
    Once they saw it, the seed sprouted,
[13:13] Aka
    grew vines, and began to strangle his heart.
[13:18] Aka
    It's pulling my enemy in.
[13:22] Aka
    Pulling him into turmoil...
    into the labyrinthine forest.
[13:28] Was
    Idiots!
[13:30] Was
    There is no way he's in tenpai.
[13:33] Was
    He doesn't have a kokushi.
[13:34] Oku
    B-But, sir, he is in riichi.
[13:38] Oku
    If it ends in a draw and
[13:40] Oku
    he isn't in tenpai, he'll pay a
    mangan penalty of 8,000 points.
[13:42] Oku
    As dealer, that will be 4,000 points to you,
[13:45] Oku
    and Akagi himself will lose 400 cc of blood.
[13:48] Oku
    If he loses that amount
    of blood now, he will die.
[13:52] Oku
    He wouldn't take a risk like that, unless—
[13:53] Was
    You understand nothing.
[13:57] Was
    He's already thrown his life away.
[14:00] Was
    Declaring a riichi out of tenpai,
[14:02] Was
    discarding that opaque tile on the second
    turn... Those were all just distractions.
[14:07] Was
    Nothing more than his old tricks.
[14:13] Oku
    Washizu-sama, we understand what you're saying.
[14:16] Oku
    And I, myself, believe that it
    is most likely just as you say.
[14:22] Oku
    But I'm asking you now to keep a cool head
[14:26] Oku
    and consider this situation for one moment.
[14:28] All
    Washizu-sama!

    23,800 points

    Currently, Washizu is in first place,
[14:37] Nar
    with a 99,000 point lead over Akagi.
SIGN    points
[14:41] Nar
    It's an overwhelming security padding.
[14:44] Nar
    Yet, on the off-chance that his
[14:47] Nar
    discarded west wind does deal
    into Akagi's kokushi hand...
[14:50] (Flashback) Aka
    Ron.
[14:52] (Flashback) Aka
    Kokushi musou.

SIGN    In the case of dealing into a yakuman hand now
SIGN    Washizu
SIGN    Akagi
[14:58] Nar
    With the two counters,
    a yakuman is worth 32,600 points.
[15:03] Nar
    Once the points shift from
    the payer to the payee,
[15:07] Nar
    the point difference closes by 65,200 points.

[15:15] Nar
    shrink down to a 33,800 point gap.
SIGN    points
[15:20] nar
    This means that a dealer direct hit haneman
[15:24] nar
    would be enough to take the lead.
[15:38] Aka
    Which way will it fall?
[15:41] Aka
    If Washizu cuts ties with reason
[15:45] Aka
    and gives himself up to his own
    genius level instinct, his madness,
[15:51] Aka
    I will
[15:54] Aka
    lose.
[15:59] Was
    I see...
[16:02] Was
    This isn't something I
    should be agonizing over.
[16:19] Was
    What I need to do is build an iron wall
    and avoid even the smallest risk.
[16:30] Guy
    Washizu-sama!
[16:31] Guy
    That is the right conclusion.
[16:37] Aka
    Looks like he chose reason.
[16:46] Nar
    Two turns later, Washizu draws
[16:49] Nar
    the white dragon, his
    kokushi hand's winning tile.
[16:59] Guy
    Washizu-sama, it couldn't be helped.
[17:04] Guy
    It couldn't be helped.
[17:29] Nar
    And then, on the 10th turn...
[17:51] Suzu
    Tsumo only.
[17:52] Suzu
    300, 500. With the two counters, that's 500, 700.

    Sir, you just played the best hand possible.
[18:06] Oku
    This playing style is rock solid.
[18:09] Oku
    He looks nonchalant,
[18:10] Oku
    but this must be the playing
    style Akagi hates the most!
[18:19] Was
    What?!
[18:20] Was
    You dare laugh at me?!
[18:24] Was
    You laugh because you think I got
    scared and let my win slip away?!

    Washizu!
[18:28] oug
    Hey!
[18:52] was
    In order to kill him,
[18:56] was
    I must withstand every insult he throws at me.
[19:01] Oku
    Your words couldn't be more true, sir!
[19:04] Oku
    That's exactly right.
[19:06] Oku
    For our victory, what's important
    now is an ironclad defense!
[19:09] Guy
    To protect your lead!
[19:10] Guy
    With Suzuki's tsumo, we have a 99,800 lead.
[19:13] Guy
    We don't need any more points.
[19:15] Guy
    What we need to focus on is keeping
    our win through the remaining hands.
[19:18] Guy
    That is, avoid all skirmishes.
    This is the best strategy.
[19:21] oka
    If we stop fighting him now with
    a lead of almost 100,000 points,
[19:24] oka
    there's nothing Akagi can do.
[19:27] oka
    Tsumo wins or having
    others play into his hands
[19:29] oka
    won't be enough to touch your lead.
[19:32] oka
    What he wants is a direct hit off of you.
[19:35] guy
    He wants you to engage him at any cost.
[19:39] guy
    That's why he laughs like that.
[19:42] oka
    That laugh is the last fight left in him.
[19:46] oka
    He wants to use it to goad you
    into interacting with him.
[19:50] oka
    You must not give in to him.
[19:51] guy
    All that would do is give him a chance.
[19:54] guy
    A chance at a sliver of a hope!
[19:55] oka
    So please, get through the next hands
    without letting anything happen.
[20:01] oka
    Even if you don't win, you will be
    giving him the countdown to his death.
[20:05] Was
    Enough!
[20:08] Was
    Blah, blah, blah!
[20:11] Was
    Ow...
[20:15] oug
    This is bad.
[20:16] oug
    We're going to have a hard
    time if they take that route.
[20:18] Yasu
    You said it.
[20:21] oug
    With only five hands left, we're going
    to need a direct hit off Washizu
[20:24] oug
    if we want to take the lead.
[20:28] oug
    But if he's going to play strictly to
    maintain his lead, that will be impossible.
[20:36] oug
    And still, that's what Akagi will have to do.
[20:40] oug
    Or I lose my arm, we lose this money,
[20:43] oug
    and Akagi will lose his life.
SIGN    Game 6
SIGN    East Hand 4
[21:01] oug
    I guess his starting hand isn't too bad.
[21:14] oug
    I see. He's going directly
    for a characters honitsu.
[21:20] oug
    If he plays it well, he'll get an ittsuu, too.
[21:23] oug
    And if he gets there with a closed hand,
[21:25] oug
    with any reverse dora, it'll be a baiman.
[21:28] oug
    At any rate, he needs to go for
    the biggest hands possible now.
[21:34] oug
    All right, he's got it!
    He needed that 7 of characters.
[21:41] oug
    Good! That's good!
[21:47] oug
    Good!
[21:50] oug
    What? The 8 of circles?!
[21:53] oug
    Why did he have to draw that?!
[21:56] oug
    He only needed one more for
    a characters honitsu. Damn!
[22:02] oug
    But now, if he draws the 5 of characters...
[22:08] oug
    Riichi, pinfu, ittsuu.
    It would be enough for a mangan.
[22:14] (Flashback) Aka
    Riichi.
[22:18] oug
    It's a bit sad that it kills our
    hope for a haneman or a baiman,
[22:21] oug
    but a mangan is good enough.
[22:29] oug
    A 2 of characters that cheapens the hand?
[22:31] oug
    What the hell? This tenpai is meaningless!
[22:34] oug
    The honitsu and ittsuu are gone.
    He's down to a pinfu only.
[22:38] oug
    At a time like this, when all we need is
    huge hands, a 2,000 point hand is useless!
[22:43] oug
    Akagi, you have no choice but to
    get rid of the 8 and 9 of circles.
[22:47] oug
    Then, if you can get the 5 of characters,
    you might make it to a honitsu ittsuu.
[22:55] Aka
    Riichi.
[22:56] oug
    Wha—
[23:06] oug
    What the hell are you doing?
[23:08] oug
    There's no way that's a good idea!
[23:12] oug
    That's a 2,000 point hand!
[23:13] oug
    You've got a 100,000 gap to close!
[23:15] oug
    This isn't the time for these puny little wins!

    If we assume that his four opaque
    tiles are at their most ideal,
[23:37] Was
    he's got a riichi, pinfu, honitsu,
    ittsuu, iipeikou... A baiman.
[23:44] Was
    That's the ideal configuration.
[23:47] Was
    Normally, that's what it would be.
[24:15] Was
    I'm in tenpai, too, with a chiitoitsu.
[24:22] Was
    I discard the 5 of characters
    and wait on the 4 of characters.
[24:28] Was
    Even better, Suzuki has that 4 of characters.
[24:32] Was
    It's an ideal configuration that
    he can deal into right away.
[24:35] Was
    However...
[24:38] Was
    I'm not playing into anyone's hand.
[24:41] Was
    I'm out.
[24:45] Aka
    Ron.
[24:50] Aka
    Riichi, pinfu.
[24:51] Was
    Damn it!
[24:58] Aka
    One reverse dora. 3,900.
[25:01] Was
    I knew it, too!
[25:05] Was
    I got caught in his cheap trap.
[25:25] yas
    Hey, Akagi.
[25:26] yas
    What are you thinking?
[25:28] yas
    We've only got the South round left now.
[25:30] yas
    What good is a bunch of cheap little wins?
[25:32] oug
    There's still a 92,000 point
    gap between you and Washizu.
[25:36] oug
    You haven't narrowed it at all.
[25:37] oug
    What you've got to do now
    is get some big hits in!
[25:41] oug
    Don't you agree, Akagi?
[25:42] Aka
    No.
[25:43] Aka
    This is just fine.
[25:47] Aka
    This hand may be cheap,
    but it reflects my true style.
[25:53] oug
    What?
[25:58] Aka
    We're actually very close.
[26:05] Was
    Damn it.
SIGN    Sixth Game
SIGN    South Hand 1
[26:22] Nar
    And so, the Sound round of the final game began.
[26:26] Nar
    Akagi finally pulls in a great wave of luck.
[26:31] Nar
    His starting tiles show strong hints
    of a yakuman daisangen hand.
SIGN    Daisangen - A yakuman hand with triplets of all 3 dragons (yakuman - 4x mangan)
[26:38] Nar
    What's more, Yasuoka has the
    white and red dragons in his hand.
[26:42] Nar
    Akagi may call on them at any time.
[26:55] oug
    Amazing.
[26:57] oug
    This is amazing!
[27:00] oug
    If Akagi gets a daisangen together,
[27:02] oug
    and Washizu plays into it,
    that's a 48,000 point payoff!
[27:06] oug
    With Washizu paying and Akagi receiving,
    that'll close the gap by 96,000 points.
[27:11] oug
    Until now, bridging that 92,000 point
    gap didn't seem remotely possible.
[27:15] oug
    But this will blow it away!
[27:18] oug
    "We're actually very close'"...
    You were right!
[27:58] Aka
    Pon.
[28:07] Aka
    Pon.
[28:20] Nar
    In the blink of an eye, Akagi is in tenpai.
[28:32] Nar
    But then, in the same turn...
[28:43] Was
    All right.
[28:44] Was
    This is the end of his daisangen.
[28:48] Was
    I say that because Suzuki already
    has the opaque green dragon.
[28:54] Was
    Which means that was the last one.
[29:01] Was
    This means that him drawing that
    green dragon was ideal, too.
[29:07] Was
    Because now those green
    dragons will shackle him.
[29:12] Was
    It's perfectly understandable.
[29:14] Was
    It was a miraculous chance
    for a player close to death!
[29:20] Was
    A once-in-a-lifetime chance at a daisangen!
[29:23] Was
    Of course, he wants to get it.
[29:26] Was
    So he will continue to chase it.
[29:29] Was
    He'll chase after the last
    opaque green dragon tile.
[29:36] Was
    But...
[29:43] Was
    He won't draw it.
[29:45] Was
    You can keep drawing,
    but you'll never draw it.
[29:50] Was
    For you as well, when all's said and done, it was nothing more than a dream.
[29:58] Was
    To overturn my lead...
[30:05] Was
    I got it!
[30:07] Was
    I discard the 9 of characters for a pinfu
    tenpai, with a 1, 4 of circles wait.
[30:14] Was
    And I know that Suzuki has the 4 of circles.
[30:18] Was
    He can play it for me right away.
[30:20] Was
    It's over!
[30:23] Was
    The person hoping for a daisangen
[30:29] Was
    must have a double pon wait for
    the green dragon and 7 of bamboo.
[30:37] Was
    This 9 of characters is no problem at all.
[30:40] Was
    It'll pass, and with that,
    he'll no longer be dealer.
[30:46] Was
    There's no way
[30:47] Was
    he can overturn the 92,000+ point
    gap in the remaining three hands...
[30:56] Aka
    Ron.
[31:03] Aka
    Shousangen.
SIGN    Shousangen - Two triplets or quads of dragons, plus a pair of the third.
[31:04] Aka
    Dealer mangan. 12,000.
[31:09] Was
    Damn it, I did it again!
[31:20] Was
    If that last discard, the 8 of
    bamboo, were still in his hand,
[31:25] Was
    he'd have had a double pon wait on
    the 8 of bamboo and the green dragon.
[31:29] Was
    He could have kept that
    daisangen a possibility!
[31:33] Was
    He discarded that 8 of bamboo before
    Suzuki drew the green dragon.
[31:40] Was
    I've got to hand it to him.
    He threw away even a daisangen.
[31:48] Was
    Which reminds me... The last hand,
    too, he threw his honitsu away
[31:53] Was
    for a direct 3,900 point hit!
[32:06] Yasu
    Akagi...
[32:07] oug
    I don't get it.
[32:09] oug
    What are you doing?
[32:10] oug
    What the hell are you trying to achieve?
[32:16] Oku
    Washizu-sama...
[32:19] Oku
    Actually, it's almost gone.
[32:22] Was
    Don't fret.
[32:24] Oku
    With this last 12,000, and the previous 3,900,
[32:28] Oku
    you've paid a 15.9 million yen
    direct hit bonus to Akagi.
[32:33] Oku
    Which means, by now, your cash is down to...
[32:36] Oku
    Hey.
[32:37] guy
    Yes.
[32:40] oku
    Just this much!
[32:41] oku
    No matter how many times I count it,
    it's only 11.6 million yen!
[32:44] Was
    I know that.
[32:47] Oku
    Which means, if you play into
    another dealer mangan hand,
[32:50] Oku
    it will prove insufficient!
[32:52] Was
    Silence! Enough!
[32:58] Aka
    I'm close, aren't I, Washizu?
[33:04] Aka
    Your back is right there.
    My hand can reach your shoulder.
[33:09] Aka
    Just one more step.
[33:12] Aka
    Just one more breath.
[33:16] oug
    So that's it.
[33:19] oug
    So that's what it was!
[33:21] oug
    You have it, don't you, Akagi?
[33:24] oug
    A clear path to victory.
[33:26] yas
    Akagi, I'm glad. Really glad!
[33:30] yas
    So we do have some hope left.
[33:33] Aka
    Knock it off.
[33:34] Aka
    I told you that I intended to win.
[33:36] Aka
    I never gave up.
[33:39] Aka
    No matter how harsh the reality of it is.
[33:48] Aka
    Shall we begin, then?
[33:55] Aka
    South Hand 1, bonus 1.
[33:59] Aka
    I'm staying dealer.
[34:03] Was
    No!

[34:35] Was
    Don't get cocky!
[34:37] Was
    You think you can scare me with the prospect
    of taking my cash with direct hits?!
[34:45] Was
    Washizu Mahjong uses transparent tiles,
[34:48] Was
    so once you've made up your mind to never
    deal into anyone's hand, it's child's play.
[34:54] Was
    Watch! I won't be dealing
    into your hand again!
[34:58] Was
    Never again!
[35:00] Was
    First, I've got to dethrone this
    monster from his dealer seat.
[35:06] Was
    All right, not too bad.
[35:09] Was
    The problem is his hand.
[35:14] Was
    Good! No matter how I look at it,
    I'm coming out on top here.
[35:22] Was
    Of course, even a cheap hand is fine.
[35:25] Was
    However, since I absolutely won't
    play into his hand anymore,
[35:29] Was
    riichi is out of the question.
[35:35] Was
    Which means this red dragon is crucial.
[35:40] Was
    Suzuki has one.
[35:44] Was
    But I'll wait to call on it.
[35:48] Was
    If push comes to shove,
    this red dragon is a safe tile.
[35:52] Was
    Once Suzuki and I are ready
    to win, I'll call on it.
[35:57] Was
    Not a moment sooner.
[36:30] Was
    It couldn't be... He's in tenpai?
[36:35] Nar
    Washizu sees three tenpai possibilities.
[36:46] Nar
    A 2, 5 of bamboo wait,
[36:53] Nar
    a 5, 8 of circles wait,
[36:56] Nar
    or...
[37:01] Nar
    a 4, 7 of circles wait.
[37:10] Was
    I'm one tile away from tenpai.
[37:14] Was
    And now, if I discard
[37:17] Was
    the bamboo or circles, and then call
    on the red dragon from Suzuki...
[37:30] Was
    My wait could be a 3, 6 of circles,
[37:40] Was
    or a closed wait for the 6 of bamboo.
[37:48] Was
    Either way, Suzuki can play
    into my hand immediately.
[37:53] Was
    I'm one tile away, with a
    guaranteed win attached to it.
[37:57] Was
    However,
[37:59] Was
    this 5 of bamboo, and the 4 and 5 of circles
    are all tiles Akagi might be waiting for.
[38:13] Was
    If they pass, Akagi will be
    knocked out of the dealer seat.
[38:24] Was
    Damn it!
[38:26] Was
    I could dethrone him, but I'm
    going to stay absolutely safe!
[38:47] Was
    What? He's switching up his hand?!
[38:49] Was
    He discarded the north wind, so I guess
    that means he wasn't in tenpai yet.
[38:57] Was
    Still, this is fine.
[39:01] Was
    Right now, making sure I don't deal into
    his hand is the highest priority.
[39:09] Was
    As long as I don't do that, my lead is assured.
[39:15] Was
    Just avoid all danger, then I can
    take my time rebuilding this
[39:21] Was
    into a tanyao hand.
[39:24] Was
    And his discard of the north wind
    further locks in what his hand is.
[39:30] Was
    He has the north winds as his pair,
    with a 5, 8 of circles wait.
[39:34] Was
    Or, he's waiting on
[39:38] Was
    the 2, 5 of bamboo.
[39:44] Was
    Well, I'm not dealing into that hand.
[39:54] Was
    He keeps the 8 of circles and discards
    the 4 of bamboo, which means...
[40:01] Was
    He's broken up his tenpai?
[40:05] Was
    I see!
[40:08] Was
    That 2, 5 of bamboo wait was just too obvious,
[40:13] Was
    so he's rearranged his tenpai.
[40:18] Was
    Regardless, his wait is either circles or bamboo,
[40:22] Was
    and in a pinch, I've got a ton of characters.
[40:27] Was
    No problem!
[40:34] Was
    Since I've decided I wouldn't deal
    into his hand, I won't do it.
[40:38] Was
    You're going to shrivel up and die.
[40:48] Was
    He got another one...
[40:50] Was
    After the 8, now a 6 of circles.
[40:54] Was
    If I recall correctly, he broke up the
    north wind triplet to make a pair.
[41:06] Aka
    Riichi.
[41:10] Was
    Oh, no! It's a chiitoitsu!
[41:14] Was
    If he wanted to get a
    direct hit with this hand,
[41:18] Was
    he would never go for a two-way wait.
[41:20] Was
    This is a single wait.
[41:22] Was
    Moreover, it's a single opaque tile wait.
[41:26] Was
    The wait that's hardest to read
    and hardest to deal with.
[41:35] Was
    He's been wanting to make it a
    chiitoitsu from the very beginning.
[41:39] Was
    But if he'd done that from the start,
    it would've been too obvious.
[41:44] Was
    I would have just kept tiles that
    safeguard me against that chiitoitsu.
[41:47] Was
    So he tried to pass it off as an
    ordinary hand until the very end.
[41:53] Was
    Damn it... I won't deal into it!
[41:57] Was
    Riichi, chiitoi, two dora.
    It's a guaranteed dealer's mangan.
[42:02] Was
    12,300 points.
[42:04] Was
    And if there are any reverse dora,
    that's a dealer haneman. 18,300 points.
[42:10] Was
    With the direct hit bonus,
[42:11] Was
    I could end up having to pay
    up to 18.3 million yen for this!
[42:15] Was
    I must avoid that at all costs!
[42:20] Was
    For that, I need... the opaque tiles!
[42:27] Was
    If he's got a chiitoitsu and
    he's waiting on an opaque tile,
[42:31] Was
    then if I discard opaque tiles,
    which are all unique, I'll be safe!
[42:36] Was
    I won't be dealing into his hand.
[43:01] Was
    Opaque tiles. I need opaque tiles.
[43:05] Was
    What? This is bad.
[43:09] Was
    A glass 8 of bamboo is no good.
[43:46] Nar
    Washizu, by utilizing all possible
    safe and defensive strategies,
[43:50] Nar
    avoids dealing into Akagi's hand.
[43:58] Nar
    He continues to avoid it.
[44:03] Nar
    However,
[44:07] Nar
    on the 14th turn,
[44:08] Nar
    Washizu's hand has run out of safe tiles.
[44:14] Was
    How did this happen?
[44:18] Was
    I won't deal into his hand. I won't.
[44:20] Was
    That's all I've wished for all this time, and now...
[44:56] Was
    It passed.
[44:59] Was
    It's common sense to believe that the
[45:02] Was
    8 of bamboo, which I drew after
    he declared riichi, is safer
[45:06] Was
    than the tiles I had before.
[45:10] Was
    But no, such common sense
    does not apply to this monster!
[45:14] Was
    He'll use his unique sense to sniff out
    the tiles I draw after he declares riichi!
[45:26] Was
    Damn it, still three turns left!
[45:30] Was
    Please, save me,
[45:32] Was
    you gods who have always granted
    me your divine protection!
[45:36] Was
    Blow, divine wind!
[45:39] Was
    Please, carry me away, into safe waters!
[45:51] Was
    Here it is!
[45:55] Was
    The fourth 2 of bamboo!
[45:58] Was
    Yes! My opponent has a
    single wait for a chiitoitsu,
[46:02] Was
    so this fourth 2 of bamboo
    is literally my messiah.
[46:09] Was
    With this, I'll be safe until the last, 17th turn.
[46:13] Was
    I can get away!
[46:15] Was
    It seems the gods have chosen me, after all.
[46:22] Aka
    Ron.
[46:25] oug
    Akagi...
[46:26] oug
    Akagi!
[46:37] Aka
    No reverse dora, but...
[46:39] Aka
    Riichi, iipeikou, south wind, two dora.
[46:42] Aka
    Mangan.
[46:44] Aka
    With one counter, that's 12,300,
[46:47] Aka
    Washizu.
[46:52] Was
    Impossible!
[46:54] Was
    You were waiting on a 2 of bamboo?!
[46:57] Was
    I can't believe it!
[46:59] Was
    But you had a chiitoitsu!
    You were working on that!
[47:04] Was
    That's what it should have been.
[47:07] Was
    That's why you broke up
    your triplet of north winds
[47:13] Was
    and destroyed your tenpai
    to discard the 4 of bamboo.
[47:17] Was
    And then, at the end,
    why you got the 6 of circles and
[47:21] Was
    declared riichi by discarding the 9 of circles.
[47:23] (Flashback) Aka
    Riichi.
[47:26] Was
    So it was all a decoy? All of it?
[47:31] Was
    You did all that to make me
    think it was a chiitoitsu to—
[47:34] Aka
    Washizu.
[47:35] Aka
    Didn't you hear?
[47:36] Was
    It was a trap?!
[47:39] Aka
    Time to pay up. A dealer
    mangan with one counter.
[47:41] Aka
    12,300.
[47:43] Yasu
    And with the direct hit bonus,
    he gets 12.3 million yen.
[48:00] oug
    This is 11.6 million yen.
    You're short 700,000 yen.
[48:08] oug
    Just so you know, we want all of it.
[48:11] oug
    And no, you can't have a "loan."
[48:14] oug
    We were on the brink of destruction, too.
[48:19] oug
    If you can't pay the 700,000 yen,
[48:21] oug
    then this match is—
[48:21] Was
    Who said I wouldn't pay?
[48:25] Was
    I just have to pay, right?
[48:40] Was
    Draw it.
[48:41] Oku
    What?
[48:43] Was

[48:46] Was
