I know the art is kinda ugly but by now I’ve actually grown very fond of it
The manga can be read without knowing any mahjong (I had no idea what mahjong was) — I still enjoyed that first read, it’s not a problem as long as you don’t mind not understanding every little thing. Years later, for my re-read I watched a few videos on Japanese/Riichi Mahjong basics beforehand (just some short ones), and I kept a Terminology list open in case I didn’t understand the terms (Reach Mahjong of New York had most of the words). I took the time to sorta understand the game itself and it was really fun :)
Really, don’t let the strange artstyle or nonexistent mahjong knowledge stop you from giving it a try.
For anime watchers: The Washizu is very long but 100% worth it, that’s where the anime leaves off. Crazy stuff lol
