'''Renhou''' {{kana|人和}} is an optional [[List of yaku|yaku]]. It is defined by a player declaring [[ron]] with a starting hand before the dealer gets a second turn or before any [[Naki| called tile]]. This premise is similar to the [[chihou]], except the hand wins by discard (ron). In some instances, it may be considered as a [[yakuman]], [[mangan]], or not used at all.
'''Renhou''' {{kana|人和}} is an [[optional yaku]]. It is scored when a player declares [[ron]] with their starting hand, before drawing their first tile, and before anyone makes a [[Naki|tile call]]. Only non-dealers may invoke renhou, since the dealer gets the first draw (and discard) of the game.
 
It can be considered the ron equivalent of [[chiihou]]. Unlike chiihou, renhou is not always scored as a yakuman; it may be worth less, depending on the ruleset.

Renhou is not a standard yaku or yakuman, because of the multitudes of variations applied to it.

Because of number of variations and interpretations to renhou, it is viewed as [[Yaku_variations#Renhou|optional]].


* '''[[Mangan]]'''
* '''[[Mangan]]'''
: By default, renhou can be defaulted as a mangan hand.
: Renhou can be set to a mangan hand by default. If a hand could score more by using regular yaku/dora, it will be scored as the higher value. Otherwise, it is a mangan. If a hand has no other yaku, it is scored as a mangan, even if [[dora]] would bring it above that.
* '''[[Yakuman]]'''
* '''[[Yakuman]]'''
: Likewise, it can be set as a yakuman.
: Likewise, it can be set as a yakuman.
* '''[[Baiman]]'''
: A few rulesets set renhou as a baiman, though this is relatively rare.
* '''[[Yaku]]'''
* '''[[Yaku]]'''
: Renhou may be considered as a yaku, to be [[yaku compatibility|cumulative with other yaku]], with a variable han value.
: Renhou may be considered as a yaku, which is  [[yaku compatibility|cumulative with other yaku]]. It is frequently set at 4 han, so that the hand is always worth mangan at minimum.
* '''Nashi'''
* '''Nashi'''
: Renhou may not be used at all.
