This set is an old one indeed, the type that we see in old movies or animations like Janki and Tetsuya. The art on the wanzu and the jihai varies from modern sets in that they resemble a more Chinese type of set. The tiles are somewhat smaller, and somewhat more slippery. I got this set from Aya Sensei as a gift, who had the set and a playing mat along with it from her father. Her father is in Japan, so the set wasn’t being used here in Turkey and she decided to give it to me. I am really thankful, considering how much I needed the set at the time.
The 1 Sou is a little different compared to a standard modern one. (The tile on the left is from the Sango set, a modern standard set.) The red fives stand out with the jewels in the middle kicking things up a notch. The art on the wanzu kanjis. The producer is Nintendo. |
