Mahjong on Youtube

Post by wavemotion » Tue Sep 25, 2012 12:51 pm

I've discovered that there is quite a bit of Mahjong media (pro tourneys, Konami Mahjong Fight Club matches, etc) on Youtube. Generally I find these by searching for 麻雀 in the Youtube search box.

Many of these videos are full-length matches. Here are some that I've found enjoyable to watch:

4P Live Matches:

Konami Fight Club matches:

I slightly prefer the fight club matches because in addition to commentary, you get to see the various gameplay elements visually on screen (Pon, Chi, Ron!, Scoring Incantations, etc) so it's easier to follow for someone like me who enjoys video mahjong.

Anyway, those links should give you a dozen hours of enjoyable Mahjong to watch and lead you to about 100 more hours if you're so inclined!

Certainly there's plenty on there. I always enjoy watching this hand for the reactions of the players and commentators at the end. :)

I can highly recommend the youtube channel of lililGENIUSlilil who is uploading new videos of Tenku Mahjong (天空麻雀) regularly.

The Tenku Mahjong Special is even in 1080p and features FKMT-Sensei (starting with part 7).

The user xxxArseneLupinxxx had been uploading Mahjong Pro League and Battle Royale 2012 over the past few weeks, but his videos have now been deleted due to copyright issues I suppose.
Fortunately, I have saved most of his videos because I was anticipating that they would get deleted.
I could probably upload them some time in the future and list them as private videos, so they won't get deleted again. Or I'll use a different streaming portal altogether.

REEEEEEACH!

I'll admit I enjoy the Shin Janki movies. I've only seen #11 with (unofficial) subtitles and a few others just kinda watching and not 100% sure of what's going on but you kinda get the idea on most of them. It's not like the plots are super-deep :)

I also recommend you do this on Nicovideo.

Mondo TV stuff (and Tenkuu Mahjong) is mostly expensive pay-per-view on Nico, so anybody who uploads it gets shut down fast. If you see it, you might not want to wait around...
