Saki: Achiga-hen episode of side-A, the spinoff by artist Aguri Igarashi (Bamboo Blade), will be receiving a TV anime adaptation, slated to premiere this Spring 2012.

Plot Summary

The Achiga Girls’ Academy in Nara once defeated regional mahjong powerhouse Bansei High School. It advanced into the national team semifinals but lost to the eventual champion, and the mahjong club was later disbanded. Six years later, elementary school student Shizuno Takakamo befriends transfer student Nodoka Haramura. The two eventually enter Achiga Girls’, but Nodoka transfers out of the school in the second year. When Shizuno sees Nodoka on television the following year as the national middle school individual mahjong champion, she decides to revive Achiga’s mahjong club.

More details will be provided in Square Enix’s Monthly Shonen Gangan magazine on 12 October 2011.

The original Saki manga was created by Ritz Kobayashi.
