Model and actress Hinako Sano has revealed her official uniform for the Sega Sammy Phoenix, the M-League team she joined following the 2026-27 season draft. Sano shared photos on social media showcasing the black team uniform, which she paired with a miniskirt and black stockings.

Sano, 31, officially began her career as a professional mahjong player after passing the Saikoishi Japan Professional Mahjong Association test in 2024. Her interest in the game dates back to middle school, inspired by the anime ‘Saki-’. After a period of casual play, she became deeply committed to the game in her 20s. Her entry into the M-League is expected to bring new fans to the professional mahjong scene.
