That's it, folks. Collectr posted onto Nyaa the other one, three-episode 1988 OVA Mahjong Hishouden: Naki no Ryuu. That and the other one, I actually have something to say about.  Relevant notes:  The title (Naki no Ryuu) is a play on the mahjong action of "calling [tiles]," both "to call" and "to cry" are naki, though they utilize different kanji and the one in the title is that for crying specifically.

Personally, though, I know that I’m doing society a favor by not bringing this atrocity to light. The history so far: In my latest desperate attempt at soliciting Muzu’s nudes, I let myself be led down a garden path and into another midjong show, because “How bad can it be,” right…?
