    The reason why mahjong can be popular in Japan is that in addition to the high playability of mahjong, which integrates puzzles, fun and games, it is also related to the top level of Japan, especially the Japanese emperor.

    There is an inseparable relationship between the promotion of the push.

    In 1909, the Japanese Hikosaku Nagawa brought mahjong from China to Japan, and the mahjong that had just entered Japan was only a tool used by a very small number of upper-class people for entertainment because of its complicated rules, and it had not yet been popularized among the general public. In 1926, a Japanese man wrote a book to teach a simplified way to play mahjong, and mahjong began to spread among the general public in Japan.

    Before mahjong entered Japan, the most popular pastimes in Japan were Go and traditional Japanese shogi.

    After the introduction of mahjong, its popularity quickly surpassed that of Go and shogi, and the Japanese emperor's intentional or unintentional promotion raised the mahjong craze in Japan to a new level, and mahjong quickly swept the whole country with an unstoppable momentum.

    It is recorded that Emperor Akihito of Japan.

    It's an avid mahjong enthusiast. Once the emperor went to the United States for a state visit, during the break of the visit, the emperor who couldn't help but itch his hands and his subordinates and friends rubbed mahjong, this scene happened to be recorded by a photojournalist, ** after the publication caused a great response among the Japanese people, the Japanese people have followed the emperor's rubbing mahjong, all kinds of mahjong venues have sprung up in Japan, mahjong has gradually become the most popular mass entertainment.

    Perhaps it is too much love for mahjong, the Japanese also established a mahjong museum in 1999, and the mahjong exhibits displayed in the museum are the true testimony of mahjong from scratch in Japan, from silence to popularity across the country.

    Japanese mahjong winning cards are not allowed to be directly knocked down and, in general, it is 1 turn up and. (Very few rules stipulate that when the number of games reaches or exceeds 5, 2 flips and sums, which is called "double flip binding".) The Dora is only counted after satisfying the tie and flop, so only the Dora and no other flips are also "unserved" and cannot be drawn.

    Japanese mahjong meets the "pair of finch heads" + "four groups of faces", and there is a flip, you can declare a tie; There are also hand types that do not meet this condition but can still tie, such as a pair of seven.

    Japanese mahjong winning cards must be served, and the number of flips is different for different battles, but as long as there is a campaign, the flips will definitely reach the standard of at least double. Therefore, Japanese mahjong has to be able to play and cards. The service card is the same as the "flop", which is a pung or kong composed of self-wind, field wind or ternary tiles, each with 1 flip.

    If there is a service card, it will reach the basic multiplication standard of the starting and sum.

    How to play:First take out one of the four wind tiles of east, south, west and north (three people remove the north wind), put them face down on the table, and after the appropriate mixing, the four (or three) people each draw one, and the drawn cards determine the player's position (Chinese mahjong is called "grab"). The person who draws the east wind sits down casually first.

    Then starting from him, the player who draws the south, west, and north winds in a counterclockwise direction (in the natural direction, the southeast, northwest, and northwest directions are arranged in a clockwise direction, but in mahjong it is counterclockwise, note here). There are also random points out a seat for the person who draws the east wind, and the seat is reserved for the player who draws the south, west and north winds in anticlockwise, and then four (or three, the following will not be repeated) people draw cards, and finally sit according to the number of the cards drawn.

    Treasure cards need to be used in the rules, and some rules stipulate that the Gong Treasure Tiles, Li Bao Cards, Gong Li Treasure Cards, Red Treasure Cards, or even normal Treasure Cards are not used. The number of cases where red treasure tiles are not used is the most, followed by the kong treasure tile and the rib tile (including the kong treasure tile), but there is very little rule that the normal treasure tile is also deleted.

    As long as there is a bar card, that is, turn over the next card in the counterclockwise direction next to the existing sign (called the bar treasure sign), and turn over one for each bar. In the general rule, the big open bar and the plus bar are to open the bar sign when playing a tile or the bar tile again, and the dark kong is to turn over the bar sign immediately when the bar is played. There are also rules that stipulate that whether it is an open bar or a concealed bar, the bar treasure plate sign is directly turned over.

    There are many ways to play Chinese mahjong, and if you want to say the difference between them, it depends on what kind of Chinese mahjong it is. I don't have many mahjong, and I often play Sichuan mahjong, which is compared with Sichuan mahjong below. Compared with Sichuan mahjong, Japanese mahjong is indeed less dependent on luck, because the core of Japanese mahjong is defense, not offense.

    Just imagine, in a half-bank (that is, two rounds), you have to take a total of 8 cards (excluding the case of consecutive banks), you may be lucky in the first four times, reach one, then in the remaining four times, the cards are very bad to do, so how to keep the position of one? Of course, it's defense, and the defensive side of Japanese mahjong is more advantageous.
