CATDOLL: Ueda Kana and other anime voice actors appear in the comic book "Genius Mahjong Girl"

How much do you know about the anime "Genius Mahjong Girl"? The latest spin-off comic "Ritz-" of the popular mahjong manga "Genius Mahjong Girl" created by Kobayashi Ryu has been serialized in a short period of 4 consecutive issues starting from the September 23rd issue of "Big Gangan" (SQUARE ENIX) released today (August 25). The plot of this work has been revealed.

The author of "Ritz-" is Hideki Ohwada, who wrote "Bakugan Koshien" and "The Scum and the Useless Reform". He is a cartoonist who is very good at using funny forms to mock real things. This time, "Ritz-" also continues his usual style and adds many realistic elements to the comics.

The story tells that after the animation of "Genius Mahjong Girl" became popular, Takeshobo began to publish a large number of mahjong-themed comics, but someone deliberately slandered the author, issued a "destroy order", and also hindered the production of the animation version. In the animated version of "Genius Mahjong Girl", voice actors such as Kana Ueda, who played the protagonist Miyanaga Saki, will appear in the comics with their real names. The original author Ryu Kobayashi even appeared as a black-haired beautiful girl.
