Taisen Idol-Mahjong Final Romance 2 (Japan, newer)

Taisen Idol-Mahjong Final Romance 2 is a two-player tabletop game released in 1995 by Video System Co., combining traditional mahjong gameplay with unique visual elements. Players compete against nine different female characters, each possessing three distinct "strip" sequences triggered upon winning a hand. These sequences are presented as scrolling images accompanied by limited animation of the character's facial expressions. Before challenging an opponent, players can utilize winnings from previous rounds to purchase items intended to aid them in subsequent gameplay. Successful hands reward players with funds that can be invested in these helpful items—but losing all funds results in a game over. Continuing a game retains any unspent cheat items but resets progress against the current opponent. Occasionally, after victory, a high-low tile guessing mini-game is offered; winning three consecutive rounds earns an additional cheat item to bolster future strategy. The game’s title translates from Japanese as "Final Romance Idol-Mahjong Competition 2" and represents a sequel in Video System's popular series blending mahjong with idol aesthetics. The gameplay utilizes a specialized mahjong keyboard for control, and features music composed by Hoso-Q alongside sound effects crafted by Pirowo.
