Summary
A young, brave teenager appears out of nowhere in a mahjong parlor where he quickly learns that he has a natural talent for the game. He learns the ins and outs of mahjong so quickly that he quickly becomes a mahjong legend.
Main Description
After playing a life-or-death game of chicken involving a car and an ocean-side cliff, 13 year old Shigeru Akagi enters a Yakuza Mahjong parlor in order to escape the cops and the rain. Unfamiliar with the rules of Mahjong, he quickly picks up the rules with his innate gambling intuition, managing to save the life of Nangou, a small time gambler deep in debt. By the time the night ends, Akagi leaves the parlor recognized an undefeatable gaming genius.
Five years later, he is drawn back into the underworld, drawn into games of incredible risk and reward.
