In a society where the strength of one’s Mahjong game determines their life, Saki Miyanaga, a first-year student at Kiyosumi High School, had distanced herself from Mahjong due to a family Mahjong game.
She is brought by her friend, Kyotaro Suga, to play with the members of the Mahjong club. Saki is defeated by Nodoka Haramura and others who have individual championship experience from junior high school, and she leaves the place.
However, Hisa Takei, the club president, feels uncomfortable with the situation where Saki is going up with a plus-minus zero in all games, and calls out Saki the next day.
While other players try to prevent the plus-minus zero, Saki ends the game again with a plus-minus zero. In the next game, following Hisa’s words, she goes up with a Yakuman and finishes at the top.
Afterwards, Saki, who has become estranged from her sister, Teru, decides to join the Mahjong club, thinking that she might be able to talk through Mahjong.
