Synopsis: While Mahjong is a game that is usually played with family and friends, it is also a game that is played in the darkest corners of society. Nangou is a compulsive player who has accumulated debts in more than three million yen. In one last attempt to clean his record, he decides to bet his life in a mahjong game with the mafia. Unfortunately, as the game advances, Nangou only moves further from the prize and closer to death.

When all hope seems lost, the game hall is suddenly invaded by Shigeru Akagi, a boy who spreads through the police. Desperate to change the game, Nangou delivers the game to Akagi after teaching it some of the rules. The mafia can only smile when Akagi sits to play. However, they soon learn that Akagi is a natural player. An imposing figure that does not fear death. The one who is destined to become a legend.
