First-year Kiyosumi High School student Saki Miyanaga is invited by childhood friend Kyōtarō Suga to visit his mahjong club. Believing Saki to be an amateur player, Kyōtarō and fellow first-year club members Nodoka Haramura and Yūki Kataoka play several games with her. Nodoka, who won the national middle school individual tournament the previous year, wins all three games before Saki leaves. However, club president Hisa Takei observes that each game ended with Saki's total points unchanged; Hisa believes Saki is able to manipulate her own score. Nodoka confronts Saki, who reveals that the habit is a result of playing mahjong with family members who would become angry if she wins and confiscate her New Year's gift if she loses. On the following day, Hisa lends Saki a book that was missing from the library; Saki must play several more games with the club in exchange. In the first game Nodoka, Yūki, and second-year member Mako Someya unsuccessfully attempts to prevent her from manipulating her points. Saki wins the second game when Hisa assigns her an imaginary scoring handicap. Saki's first experience in winning convinces her to join the club, and its members soon begin preparing for the preliminaries of the national high school team tournament several weeks away.
