Hi Everyone!
I’m back with another article in the Saki Series! This article will be about the all time national high school champion – Miyanaga Teru! If there are any mahjong terminology you don’t understand, you can check them in the glossary on the last page 
Saki is a 25 episode long anime that describes the journey of the protagonist – Miyanaga Saki through her first ever Mahjong tournament. She disliked Mahjong but after meeting many people, she realises her talent in Mahjong and leads her school team, Kiyosumi High School Mahjong Club, to victory in the Prefecture Qualifiers to attend the National Tournament. The first season of Saki introduces the main characters of the top four mahjong teams in ‘Nagano’ which is the prefecture Saki lives in and the following seasons describe Kiyosumi Mahjong Club in the national tournament until the semi finals as well as other teams. Teru and her club aren’t from the same region so they only make an appearance in the following seasons.
Teru is a national class monster and people deem her to be unhuman because she wins so much in mahjong. In the past two years, they have had clear victories in the national finals and come out top. As the captain of the team, she has won the individual finals as well in the last year and placed second the year before. Teru is Saki’s sister however because of something that happened between them, Teru and her mum now live in West Tokyo. Teru seems to hate Saki for something and doesn’t recognise her as her sister, even though Saki really wants to make up. It’s still unknown as to why they had the dispute though.
Teru is a very cold person however she acts smiley and happy towards the media and others. Towards her team, she’s quite introverted and cold however you can sense her power. Although cold, she can be very caring about other players.
