This is my eight review, please forgive any mistakes.
I found out about this show when i went into furiten no yaku and lost all my money. I relate to the main character because she is also bad at Mahjong.
Most of the show is ok but the 4th episode really blew me away. The episodes continues as normal, until the main character (bad at mahjong) wakes up and realizes it was all a dream since the Earth blew up last episode. The 5th episode makes me upset because the title of the episode says "go to work" but it was otherwise an alright experience.
Pros:
- Bear situation
- Camping episode
- I yelled Riichi but she kept sucking Mahjong
Cons:
- I lost all my money at the riichi mahjong parlor
- I didn't get the character I want in Mahjong Soul
- Earth has been destroyed, but one ship escaped…

This was an exceptional anime, great characters and great addition to the lore. The length of the anime is quite short, with each episode being a minute and a half long. That being said, it compensates for it with an amazing cast of characters and a delightfully simple plot.
The artstyle is simple, yet it isn't hard to look at in the slightest. My only complaint is with the web special, where the guest characters look a bit jarring with their slightly uncanny designs.
The characters were well rounded for the length of the anime. Ichihime was the best for the sole reason of carrying the episode at some points.
I highly recommend this anime, as it is seriously underrated in the anime world.

Another short that seemingly finished outta nowhere, much like Yatogame-chan this season. Jantama Pong manages to be even worse than Yatogame with all it's inane ,repetitive nonsense that it throws at the viewer.
If you've seen Teekyuu, then this will make comparisons a lot easier to understand. Teekyuu is to tennis as to what Jantama Pong is to Mahjong. A lot of whacky situations happen in both short anime and while their respective activities may play out every now and then, they're usually relegated to the background.
Jantama Pong is basically Teekyuu lite though, so if Teekyuu is dialed to 11, Jantama Pong would be around a 6. You can coherently follow what they're saying and doing at all times, which would be quite the feat whilst watching Teekyuu. It's not as funny, nor is it as…
