Achiga 40: Aim

This chapter is a close retelling of Saki chapters 228 and 229. The wins and the expressions and everything is much more dramatic than in the original though. Anyway, it's Achiga only this month. Shinohayu is on break, as expected, and for "various reasons" (according to Mekimeki) Toki is also absent.

Saki 245: Made by Nature

This chapter has everything. Like, literally everything a Saki chapter could have: ridiculously large boobs, Kunihiro's butt, panels without tone, panels with tone, flashbacks, color pages, scoring mistakes, Kunihiro's butt (worth mentioning twice), panels with only a sketch, weird sci-fi stuff, ominous silhouettes... and even mahjong (a little bit). Well, I guess there is one thing missing and that is Saki herself, but you know how that works...

 

On a serious note, Ritz acknowledged a couple of mistakes in this chapter. First in page 8, it originally said 5200 (points) when it's actually 7700. This has been corrected in this translation. Second in page 9, the scores are not entirely right. No big differences though, just a few thousand points up or down, and everyone keeps their positions. But I'll give the correct scores here: 1st Rinkai 138000, 2nd Shiraitodai 112800, 3rd Kiyosumi 83300, 4th Achiga 65900 (currently in South 3).
