Where do you people even come from?

People always love to complain about how Saki doesn't have any real mahjong just because it has superpowers. The series is much more thoughtful about strategy and tactics than the likes of Akagi, Koizumi or Tetsuya. Not only do you have characters using real defense strategy as (opposed to urasuji and "sensing the flow"), but there's also the element of how different superpowers interact with each other and how characters use them strategically for best effect. And this is without even mentioning spinoffs like Shinohayu which has almost no focus on superpowers at all.

I find it interesting that no one ever complains about mahjong manga like Naki no Ryuu, or Mukoubuchi, or Usagi, or Bird, none of which give a damn about depicting real mahjong. But nope, Saki's main characters are half-naked girls, so it's the spawn of Satan. Naki no Ryuu and Tohai have sex and gore but they're about hotblooded manly men doing hotblooded manly things so it's totally fine. Homoeroticism is only okay when it's between men apparently.
