Kyoto Riichi Mahjong *No gambling! ＼(^o^)／

- The game starts at 7:00PM (doors open around 6:30PM).
- Please arrive on time so other players don’t have to wait.
- Please avoid cancelling right before the event, as it makes it difficult for people on the waiting list to join in time.
- No gambling or smoking.

< For new participants >
Most of our regular members play at a steady pace.
To keep the game enjoyable for everyone, we ask that new players have already played Japanese Riichi Mahjong online (e.g., Mahjong Soul, Riichi City, Tenhou, etc.) enough to understand the basic yaku and the flow of play.
You don't need to know how to calculate the points at all! We’re happy to help with that during the game :)

Before the event, I will send first-time participants a direct message (DM) on meetup.com to confirm attendance and experience level. If I don’t receive a reply, you may be asked to observe the first session.

Why am I doing this event? Because I’m addicted to playing Riichi Mahjong at a real table and want to share that fun with others!
Let’s enjoy chatting, drinking, and playing together in a friendly, welcoming atmosphere.

This is the BEST YouTube channel to learn to play Riichi Mahjong on a real table:

Fee : Free. Drink order appreciated (all sales support the event).

No outside food or drinks, please.
We also have a cute dog at the venue :)

< Note for advanced Japanese mahjong players >
This event is designed to welcome people who may not be fluent in Japanese or who feel hesitant about visiting a traditional mahjong parlor (雀荘). We prioritize participation for such individuals to make it more accessible.
We hope you understand the purpose of this event and appreciate your cooperation.
