The Nakayoshi magazine from Kodansha recently announced that the upcoming mahjong anime "Pon no Michi" ("The Way of Pon") will receive a parallel manga adaptation. The adaptation is in the capable hands of Tsukasa Unohana and is set to release alongside the next issue of the magazine on September 1.

Further details suggest that the anime's premiere is scheduled for January 2024.

The story is set in the city of Onomichi in Hiroshima Prefecture. The protagonist, high school student Nashiko Jippensha, is homeless and attempts to revive the abandoned mahjong parlor that her father once ran. She transforms it into a lively place of camaraderie, food, tea, and of course, the occasional game of mahjong.
