What kind of transition has the Mahjong Manga been born in the midst of the Mahjong Boom and the rise of comic magazines for young people, as represented by the hit of the novel "『 Mahjong Hokoriki 』" by Tetsuya Asa?
From interviews with manga artists, original authors and editors, as well as a vast amount of materials, the book reveals its half-century and 50-year history.
By the author says, "I didn't want this book to be a beautifully paved novel," by describing in detail the biographies of writers, works, and publishers who have "lived desperately in every moment", it becomes a real, vivid, and flowing history.
There are various ways to read this book, which is based on testimonies and materials.
There are many contacts with existing history of publication, history of novels, history of manga, history of anime and history of movies, and from the frontier genre of mahjong manga, there is a power to reflect each of them.

[What this book describes is that there are various people in the marginal genre of the comic world called mahjong manga, and various magazines and works have been produced by passion and inertia. That's all.
Many of them are now forgotten, and, to be honest, quite a few can be forgotten, but I wanted to keep them on record.
Please think that there are people in the world who want to do such a thing positively.

Chapter 1 The beginning of Mahjong Comic Magazine 70 s
Introduction 1970 s
At the end of the 60 s, with the emergence of the mahjong boom and the rise of comic magazines for young people represented by the hit of Tetsuya Asa's novel 『 Mahjong Hororiki 』, comic books for young people, comic books mainly dealing with mahjong began to be produced gradually.
In this trend, Hideaki Kitano, who was a Mushi Pro and had a deep knowledge of mah-jongg, became a leading figure in the genre, starting with Asa Da's short novel Comicalize.
On the other hand, Takeshobo, a publishing company focusing on mah-jong, was born in 1972.
At first, he published only the print magazine 『 Kindai Mahjong 』, but in 1975, he entered into the mahjong comic market in earnest mainly in 『, and started to publish the first Japanese periodical mahjong comic magazine, "Kitano Manga Gambling Punch 』."
In the late 70 s, other companies such as Momozono Shobo and Tokuma Shoten started to enter the market.
Although it was a mahjong manga that became a genre, there was no hit manga that could reach people who didn't know mahjong, and it was a shade.
There are few variations in settings and stories, and in terms of direction, it is like trial and error of how to incorporate the game of mahjong into the manga expression, so it must be said that many of the works are difficult for modern readers to read.
That will not change until the' 80 s.

With the appearance of the new star Masayuki KATAYAMA, 『 Young Magazine 』, 『 GyuWanbura Egocentric 』, which can be called "the first Japanese hit mahjong comic," was born.
Takeshobo Co., Ltd. recovered from the management crisis with the big hit of 『 Furiten 』, but the magazine was renewed by young editors who had just graduated from Daigaku Manken, and new artists such as Katayama and Kaiji Kawaguchi created mahjong comics which drew a line from the past.
In addition, talented original authors and writers such as Tomoshi Kuga, Yuichi Baba and Yasuaki Doi, who used to go in and out of Take Shobo as editors and part-time workers, made their debut to further enrich the magazine.
In view of this situation, various publishing companies related to geki-ga such as Futaba Publishing and Yoshibunsha Publishing have newly joined the mahjong comic magazine, and at its peak, there were 15 magazines.
This situation ended with Take Shobo winning by itself, partly due to the creation of 『 Naki-no Ryu 』, a huge hit that went beyond the framework of the mahjong comic magazine, and most other mahjong comic magazines are closed in line with the end of the 80 s.

Chapter 3 The Golden Age of Mahjong Comics in the 90 s
Introduction 1990 s

『 Kindai Mahjong Original 』 『 Separate volume Modern Mahjong 』 『 Kindai Mahjong Gold 』 Three magazines produced many masterpieces with their own unique colors, partly because they had a stable advertiser called Free Mahjong.
The leader of this period is Nobuyuki Fukumoto.
By increasing its popularity with its unique design and a mind battle that had never been seen before, it established its name in 『 AKAGI 』.
Rieko nishihara, who opened a new frontier in the world of essay-style comics, cannot be excluded from her name as a cartoonist who made a great leap from Chikushobo at that time.
In addition, if Katayama and 来賀, who had been the main character since the 80's, made masterpieces such as 『 No-Mark 爆牌 Party 』 『 Mahjong Shinkiro 』, new actors such as Makoto Ito appeared without interruption, and the magazine was stable and rich.
It was also during this period that the media mix called V cinema was often performed in mahjong manga of Takeshobo.
The main story was the 『 Suzaku Oni 』 series based on Shoichi 『 』.
The model Shoichi Sakurai, known as' Suzume Oni' (The Sparrow Oni), established a firm position in the world of mahjong and mahjong manga, partly because the disciples of' Suzume Oni Ryu' (The Sparrow Oni School) were active in many competitions hosted by Takeshobo.
It was in' 97 that the time when most of the comic books were' Mahjong Manga = Take Shobo.'
Tetsuya 『 』, which started in 『 Weekly Shonen Magazine 』, became the first hit Mahjong Manga in Shonen Magazine, attracting a new audience to the genre.

A substantial integration was carried out in which the main series of Koori 『 』 was transferred to 『 Kindai Mahjong 』.
As a result, the new 『 Koori 』, which became a two army magazine of the 『 Modern Mahjong 』, fell into a state of confusion with repeated renewal with blue breath. 『 Gold 』, which was not directly related to the reorganization, also ceased publication in 06 after a strange magazine with an extreme inclination to Suzuginryu. Takeshobo Mahjong Manga lost its vitality as a whole, although there were individual good stories such as the birth of a new hit movie called 『 Mukobuchi 』 『 Mudazumo Naki Kaikaku 』, and the expansion of new fan base by the animation of 『 AKAGI 』.
There are several possible reasons, including the spread of online mahjong.
On the other hand, in the first half of the 00 s, 『 Tenpai 』, and in the latter half of it, 『 Saki 』 and other magazines other than Take Shobo produced big hits.
By the time of the sudden death of the original 来賀 in 2022, the former grew up in the Taiga Mahjong Manga (Mahjong Comics) with more than 150 volumes of both the main work and Gaiden, and the latter drew Mahjong as a sport of club activities by beautiful girls with so-called' moe' patterns, and both became works before the world of Mahjong Manga.
Although not as flashy as these two films, 『 凍牌 』, serialized by 『 Young Champion 』, is also a popular film that has been serialized for more than 15 years.
Things are not much different in the not much different from the 00 s.
『 Tenpai 』 and 『 凍牌 』 repeated chapters in a good tone, and 『 Saki 』 had a great success with a spin-off version of 『 Achiga edition 』, but there was no new big hit from Take Shobo, and Koori 』 in 『 was closed at last, and AKAGI 』 in 『 was completed after nearly 20 years of stagnant development, so it felt like the end of an era.

Probably because Mamiya 』 of Yamasa 『, a work of Fukumoto which newly started after the end of 『 AKAGI 』 ended in failure, many of the series of 『 Kindai Mahjong 』 rapidly shifted to those related to M league and became an inward-looking magazine, abandoning the position of' a specialized magazine with a certain generality' as it used to be.
On the other hand, new series of Mahjong Manga have started in media such as 『 Jump + 』 『 Manga Time Kirara Character To 』 『 Nakayoshi 』 etc.
Probably this situation will not change in the future, and Mahjong Manga will continue to be a genre within manga, rather than a special genre mentioned in the Foreword.
