Yakuhai are dependent among the different honor tiles.  In the case of [[sangenpai]] (dragon tiles), any player may collect a set of either tile and attain the yaku for that tile.  With regards to [[kazehai]] (wind tiles), yakuhai counts for the players in relation to their current [[jikaze|wind seating]] and/or the current wind round.

Players are assigned a particular '''wind seat''', or'''[[jikaze]]''' {{kana|自風}}, relative to the dealer position, who is always seated East.  As a note, players need to remember the wind order of: '''East, South, West, and North''' {{kana|東、南、西、北}}, which is always the turn order barring calls for [[pon]] or [[kan]].

For the seat wind yaku, players must collect their own set of wind tiles.  For this, it is necessary for players to be aware of the current wind seating.  This can easily be noted by paying attention to the dealer position.  If a wind is neither seat nor round wind, it is considered as an '''otakaze''' {{kana|客風}} (''off wind'' or ''guest wind''). A set of such a wind is not counted towards yakuhai.  Open calls for such wind tiles forces players to resort to other yaku for completion.
