A big thank you to Anime Central for letting us host. We shall look forward into next year.

Last weekend, we had the pleasure of bringing mahjong over to Anime Central. #acen2025
The room was full on multiple occassions. We started on Thursday and even extended our activity into Monday.
When we go to conventions, we play some mahjong.
