'''Hanchan''' {{kana|半荘}} encapsulates one game of [[Japanese mahjong]].  A typical game involves two rounds designated as East and then South.  Even if a game ends early, such as when a player falls below zero points, then it is still considered to be a full game.  For shorter games, players may play '''[[tonpussen]]''' {{kana|東風戦}}, or East only games.

Without any player falling below 0 points, the shortest game possible is 8 handsOf course, the shortest game possible can end in just one hand.  After that, games can be of varying lengths depending on the number of [[#Renchan|dealer repeats]] and other game results.
