Synopsis:
The everyday life of Hideyuki Toyotomi is irrevocably altered when he's repeatedly drawn into the boisterous, often chaotic world of mahjong by his eccentric friends. Despite meticulous preparation and seemingly favorable draws, Hideyuki consistently finds himself at the losing end of the table. The series explores the dynamics of friendship amidst friendly competition, highlighting the peculiar bonds forged through shared leisure activities.
Set against a backdrop of casual Japanese social life, it delves into themes of acceptance and finding camaraderie in unexpected situations. The anime offers a slice-of-life perspective, focusing on character interactions and the humorous absurdity that arises from Hideyuki's enduring misfortune. Expect a gentle pace and emphasis on interpersonal relationships rather than high-stakes drama or fantastical elements. It’s a story about navigating life with a group of unconventional companions, one mahjong game at a time.
