Even this anime has its beach episode. It took half the season but here it is.

The cast in swimsuits and at the beach. Even Emi, their latest member showed up. It was fun seeing them hang out together and just enjoying themselves. There's definitely some competitive energy among them though.

Well that was the beach episode which got out of hand with the challenges and the strange birthday present.
Haneru got serious tho with optioning the strange present.
Still the girls had a lot of fun which was nice.

Just how Rich is Riche to be able to have a custom made golden Mahjong set created as a gift? The girls had so much fun at the beach this was such a nice chill episode

That was a pretty fun episode, my favorite part was Haneru being terrible at volleyball, it was super cute that first time she was going to hit the ball.

Gotta have a beach episode, even in a show about mahjong, but having a full female cast pretty much meant it was mandatory lol. Not that I’m complaining tho, this was a fun one, the girls looked great in their swimsuits but we unfortunately didn’t get any closeup shots to show them off, I was kinda surprised that didn’t happen but it’s not a big deal. And the beach outing also doubled as Pai’s birthday party which was wholesome, and is also apparently mahjong day so that’s a cool coincidence, except it isn’t since this is a fictional character but still cool anyway lol.

And the gift exchange had some nice gifts, reasonable and thoughtful, up until Riche decided a golden mahjong set was within the budget lol, and since Pai felt she couldn’t accept the gift we got something mahjong related in this episode after all, being various games themed around mahjong. I found most of the games pretty interesting despite the fact I still don’t know mahjong well enough to just know what would make a winning hand, the last game they played looked especially fun, it was funny how Haneru ended up winning by default lol.

The illustration at the end of the EP... I swear to god I've seen it before somewhere. It has to be a reference to something (maybe a poster to some FF or other RPG games or something!?), but I can't just put my fingers on it!!! Somebody PLEASE help me figure it out!!!!

The position of Chombo, might be a dragon in the referenced poster (might also be not), but I can't really remember from where.... But it has to be a reference to some poster.....

EP 7

So yeah apparently i didnt notice until someone pointed it out, but the reason(?) why its called pon no michi is because...onomichi. or something.
I dunno man

(yesterday) Anyway while i was waiting for the anime the op was stuck in my head, but idk. shrug. kinda strange tho
Anyway your usual dream sequence. is this an akagi reference? not that i know anything but still.



Bit of a strange ep but otherwise
No idea whats gonna happen in the next ep from the preview

Also im not sure if nashiko says this every episode but it seems she has an interesting way of using her name. maybe its some japanese thing that i dont know

Beach episode is always welcome and with some minigames based on Mahjong was extra fun. The girls reactions to Riche her richness are always amazing. Haneru being bad at Volleybal was something we all saw coming, poor Nashiko.

Finally, an episode at the beach that I truly enjoyed! Pai and Nashiko are definitely the best; I love their character design.

Now, considering that in Mahjong there are a total of 144 tiles, and each one has an approximate volume of 23.2 cm³, and gold has a density of 19.2 g/cm³, that gives us an approximate weight of 445.44 grams per tile. If we multiply this weight by the total number of tiles, we get a total of 64,143.36 grams (equivalent to 64.14336 kilograms or 141.4119025 pounds) of gold in that entire briefcase.

Taking into account that it has the commercial purity of gold (80%), and each gram with that purity is worth 64.69 USD today, that would give us a total value of 4,149,433.95 USD.

Not a bad beach episode; I thought there could've been more, but that's okay.

I enjoyed the competition. It was fun to watch.

Riche adopt me please!

Thanks for the work @AkeZZZ! You are our guidance consultant for Pon no Michi matters πŸ˜πŸ‘

Out of curiosity, would you know if the prefecture is sponsoring the anime in exchange for tourist promotion?

There was an Onomichi Film Festival in January where they aired the first three episodes of the anime. Other than that, I haven't seen anything from the Onomichi side yet. Maybe, the series is not that popular enough or I'm missing something.

This time, it's Nashiko who has the dream of a good hand, though for funny reasons to create something else.

Happy birthday to Pai, and it's also the aforementioned mandatory beach episode. The rich girl Riche definitely brought anything related to the beach, and they certainly had fun together. With the presents, as informal like Nashiko and Izumi to the elegance of Haneru, and of course, the rich girl vibes of a cosmetic set and a custom-made mahjong set emblazoned in real, pure gold. I swear Riche is unhinged in her expensive tastes.

And since Pai can't accept the heavy gift, the girls only decide to play games to earn it, without Riche of course. From flags to volleyball, Haneru...just keeps surprising everyone that she isn't efficient outside of mahjong. And to end it all, a "don't let the stick fall" game to decide the victor, it should be as easy, and between both Nashiko and Haneru, her dream tactic got her disqualified, which sets Haneru the winner. Good for her.

Chill episode.

I thought that in this episode they are going sport for real without using mahjong. But they still use mahjong anyway in the sport XD

Lol Pai's birthday presents for a beach episode... Riche is truly rich (lol) didn't expect her to give her a full set of golden mahjong tiles, but it was good that they mixed mahjong with beach games to win the prize and Hanaru managed to do it in the end
