I'm totally not expecting the scene with Kiyosumi team, but It's done finely~

Anything with Hisa and Mihoko is okay. XD

So next ep airs faster than the next chapter? Hmm~

Toki went full power and Teru as well, dear lord. Toki is in no shape to do so either, she's going to die if she keeps this up any longer. Pretty good mahjong match so far even if it's way dragged out.

Also, isn't these series are about Achiga squad?..

Teru doesn't give up till someone is below zero it seems and she already has a amazing lead.
Toki is pushing her powers way to much if this continues she will have to be taken out by a ambulance which would be pretty bad for the moral of her team.

Hanada remains a funny character i really like her always happy no mater what personality and she continues to fight.
Kuro is just helpless she might have scored some points if she wasn't so frightened.

Why is that an anime about cute girls playing mahjong is giving me so many feels!

Teru is a beast. A BEAST! A heartless cruel valkyrie!

Kirame is a bro! Her ability to not get under zero WILL make it so that they'd become second place but she still doesn't want anyone to go under zero. "I'll go with the outcome that I like the most. I will not let anyone go bust!"

Toki is like a shounen manga protagonist! Even when she's going to die (WHICH IS HIGHLY PROBABLY... not really, pass out at most), She still wants to end Teru's reign of terror!

Kuro... she's doing things passively. If Kuro wasn't hogging up all the doras...then someone would have been killed already! There's still a chance that someone will make a comeback and stop Teru's evil reign!

Also, a nice surprise is expanding of Kiyosumi's side. Yuuki, Nodoka and Saki went to watch the Vanguard match. (Did Nodoka know Kuro is playing?) but Saki couldn't take it. Why! ;_; I want Saki season 2 now!!

Also:


Ryuuka broke my heart...!

Good stuff, now it goes beyond the manga :D really cant wait for the next episode, 4 more episodes left so i guess they're gonna stop after this semi finals, which means no seeing saki on the finals :(

But this series is getting better by the minute so i really dont mind it as it is, enjoying the cameo all those saki characters are making from time to time, things like this really counts!

@theanimelover - firstly, you might want to put that in a spoiler tag. Secondly, I believe he is referring to seeing them in side A - which is, to be honest, pretty obvious.

I know that Teru is awesome and "Saki is serious business"
but those episodes are so f*cking boring/predictable now (yes she will kill everyone :P
so we will have one more with Teru and than 3 for rest of the games?! o.O
and Achiga going for second place what is kind of obvious

still Kirame saves the show
she has good attitude and weird ability
but I like her and that voice :D

Toki will collapse for sure and the game won't continue and Achiga get 2nd place before someone getting knockout.

The game will end with Teru winning.

Middle school kouhai? Hasn't Saki's family always lived in Nagano?

The uniform does look quite similar though.

EDIT: The tweet mentions that next week is the final television broadcast for Achiga I think.

Kuro looks so sad just sitting there and cant do nothing, tear in her eyes while just being completely out match while the so called "Champ" wont just end the match you have 130k lead damn it.

Toki is looking like she half dead, trying so hard to stop that streak must be mentally draining to do so, i just dont get how can you see 2 turn ahead and still lose?


Nodaka and saki show up but what was that flash back that saki had?

The music was awesome during the beginning double foresight scenes. Now another epic cliffhanger, three turns ahead? Oh god this can't end well.

I thought she could only use that power once anyways but she did it multiple times with the triple to boot! Can't imagine the state she's in right now.

I dunno... all this focus on Toki kinda annoys me - stupid sick girl, if mahjong is not good for her health she should do herselfl a favour and stop playing it.
imo its kinda sad that u dont see that much mahjong of the actual main characters of the series. Where is the screentime of Shizu and Arata? I hope they will be shown more even though i have to admit that Teru is kinda badass and a good "final boss"
so lets see how it ll end, I m curious about it

She was talking about this "Achiga-hen" where Achiga are supposed to be main cast. LOL.
And that next week will air the last episode on TV.

Better rename this "Saki Senriyama-hen".

People, we got like 3 episode with the focus on Senriyama while we had 8 about Achiga. After the semi-final Senriyama will probably not be seen again in the entire Saki franchise except maybe in being used as training fodder by Achiga before the final or in cameo.

Anyway the episode was awesome, still I would have liked if they followed the same cliffhanger as the manga since they had 2 or 3 more pages to animate and it would be better than another 'I'll see one turn ahead of the last time' in a row.

Also i'm pretty positive that Toki's power do not endanger her life in the slightiest. I beleive it only wear her down so she'll only fall asleep/unconcious until she get some rest and naturally wake up.
Since she is pushing it too much, the worst case I could see this end in would be that she won't be able to use her future ability anymore.

Pretty harsh man, but also hillarious. Not as harsh as the Joke about whether Kokaji remember Akado or not, though~

As for keep it non spoilered... I think we're being spoilered way too much here, about what Hisa said and progress on Side B... >.>

Well, it's not like we expect Kiyosumi to lose... :P

Oh and I think Mihoko told Hisa and Kiyosumi cs about Achiga... not sure if Nodoka still not know about her old friends being on the tournament or not, though...

An awesome episode indeed, even after reading the manga I really enjoyed it.
Dat cliffhanger.
Need a Senriyama-hen so badly at least a spin off/one shoot, something!

Subara/5, intense, great episode!

I'm glad to see Kuroko Hanada is content being the sacrificial lamb, Arai Satomi's voice really fits the character.

Will Toki survive? Judging from the preview they are out for good next episode...would be a shame really, loving them. "Attouteki na Chikara wo Mokuzen Toshite" is my favorite track of the OST, really good music for the impending Teru Raep.

Also, who are these...Achiga (did I write it correctly?) girls some of you are talking about? Are they manga-only?
