== History == | |||
Arushiiaru mahjong dates back to 1929, to the founding of the Mahjong association of Japan <ref>[https://www.nihon-majan.org/arusiarumajyan.html Arushiiaru mahjong]. Mahjong Association of Japan.</ref>, though similar rulesets were probably in use even before then. Though it fuctioned as the official standard of the time, it declined in popularity after the introduction of riichi mahjong in 1952 by [[Daizo Amano]]<ref>[[wikipedia:jp:麻雀| 麻雀]]. Japanese Wikipedia.</ref>. The Mahjong Association of Japan still considers arushiiaru as their primary variant, while riichi remains secondary, officially recognized in 2016. | |||
