Overview

Divorced, unemployed, and pushing thirty after spending four years as a shut-in. Rinji has little to show for his life except his reputation as one of Japan's strongest online mahjong players. But when his ex-wife falls ill and their young daughter is left in his care, being good at a game isn't enough anymore. He needs to put food on the table. So Rinji decides to do the one thing he knows how to do: play mahjong for money. But dominating online is one thing. Making a living in Tokyo's real-world mahjong parlors means facing hustlers, veterans, eccentrics, and killers at the table who have spent their lives paying for cash. Armed with his talent at online mahjong, Rinji sets out to prove that the one thing that made him a failure might also be the thing that finally makes him a father. (Source: Mahjong Pros)

Synopsis 日本語

ネット麻雀界（ネト麻）のカリスマ雀士、キリンジパパ。しかしその正体は4年間引き篭もり続けたバツイチ三十路ニート、桐谷鈴司だった。働かなかったため、妻と娘に逃げられてしまった鈴司だったが、元妻の華子が病気で倒れたことで、娘の小梅を自分の稼ぎで食わせるために雀ゴロとして生きていくことを決意する。手術を受けた華子の意識が戻らないまま、鈴司が小梅と暮らし始めて半年が経過していた。華子の病気を治すにはアメリカの有名な医者に診て貰う必要があるが、そんな大金を雀ゴロの鈴司が用意出来る訳が無かった。しかし、歌舞伎町最強の麻雀打ちになれば、代打ちとして声がかかり、大金を手にすることが出来ると聞く。そのために歌舞伎町のピン東風雀荘カブキング、リンドンリンドン、ホーマー、雷紋亭、エビルベビィの5店舗の制圧に鈴司は乗り出す。
