Standard Japanese mahjong sets also come with four red-five ''dora'' tiles. One number five character tile, two number five pin tiles, and one number five bamboo tile are replaced with their matching red tiles. These red ''dora'' tiles can replace the appropriate number of standard five-tiles. Usage of the red ''dora'' tiles is optional. In addition, sets also come with flower and season tiles, but these are not used in the Japanese game. Instead, flower and seasons are used in other variations like Chinese and American styles.
