Handicap games are only possible in an official setting for shogi because you can capture pieces while in chess handicap games may happen in an unofficial setting maybe for educational or entertainment segment between a highly rated player vs an newbie, each game for me has its own complexities

Hi, jienjien👋! I’m a Japanese Shogi player, and I enjoy your Shogi videos!! I want to interact with you. Do you have a Discord group on your channel or something?

Westerner here. I just started playing Shogi not so long ago. The best part is imagining what the pieces would look like. Dragon King, Dragon Horse, Generals with Gold and Silver armor. Gold is strong and tanky with heavy armor or a two handed sword perhaps, silver is quick and agile light armor and dual wield maybe or something. Coolest battlefield ever! Those are beautiful pieces.

It seems like it would be really hard to visualize in such a game, as the pieces are mainly distinguished by unrecognizable Japanese characters.

I always find it a bit of an insult to shogi players to depict the way the pieces move on the pieces. Who would appreciate that if it were done on chess pieces? Now I do understand that the kanji characters can be a bit intimidating, but there is a nice solution for that: use colour to indicate what the pieces are! I have great design for that. Can be found on Thingyverse.

So, I'm also watching this video, already in minute 54:57. I'm a beginner too lazy (or not educated enough) to read a tsume book by myself so this kind of video is highly appreciated. I'm so lucky I still have several to go😊 Thanks so much JienJien🙏🌸

Awesome!! I just discovered Kyoto Shogi... do you know where can I learn? Thanks!!

Shogi is ... well, if you have fun good for you. Like shatranj and thai chess. Games that won't allow dynamics that are dynamic.

Hmm interconcerning

❤

How could you do this? Explain almost Shogi's rule ib just one minute!? Exellent job!

What kind of app is that's for shogi pc? 😊

Jienjien tell me what do You think about Heian Shogi and its rules

I think XiangQi is a much better, I just wish people were more devoted to quality as Shogi players. Most of use are playing on marker lines drawn on a spare wood or cardboard. I really like the floor Ban the players sit around.

Duda

What shogi set is that ?

I am a chess player. I got to know about shogi from an anime called "When will Ayumu make his move"

hmm interomicon

Why part 1 tho? Will you do variant pieces?

Hmm

otimo video

Hmm intercounting

Hmm interconnecting

I wonder if there's a version of this with a western redesign, the game looks fun.

hmm interacting

As new player, just thought I’d share an idea which is a small beginner tournament. You could provide feedback and guidance for players after the match. I’d be interested in joining that tournament.

Hi there, I’m new to Shogi. As of today I’ve decided to learn how to play, as a visual learner I was wondering if you could direct me towards a site where I could watch professional Shogi matches?

The go stones to mark the piece movement lol

I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE A SUPER SHOGI CHESS WITH ALL THE PIECES FOR BOTH :3 IMAGINE ALL THE 20 SHOGI PLUS THE QUEEN AND EXTRA BISHOP AND ROOK LIKE ON CHESS OR A CHESS WITH LANCE AND THE GOLD AND SILVER GENERALS

Chess but japanese

Osho

Man really they couldn't make some distinct figures for shogi? how i m supposed to distinguish its piece when i have no clue about japanese? that's he basic reason i think i ll stay away

Shogi returning pieces still has a awful lot of restrictions.

Hmm interesting

There's no stalemate

This is a very creative idea. In a way, it feels like you are playing a variant of shogi at the same time that you help a newbie.

How do we know who is black and white?

Сёги немного более разнообразны, чем обычные европейские шахматы

As a chess enthusiast for a decade, I want to start playing Shogi, but I do not find a good platform with enough players, and also I am a little bit intimidated by the difficulty. Any advice?

Lets play with me

I wonder why there is a name Lance onto Kyosha. Is this a faerie chess piece?

So you are saying that there is no direct world championship match in shogi? Interesting. Also, what happens when a player wins every title?

As a player who likes to play different variants of chess, this is a really good video and actually taught me some things I didn’t know about 将棋 (Shogi). Thank you!

Jesus putting the seeds on the squares is really jarring to a WeiQi player like me

I want to know the Japanese names. No instructional video tells us.

Handicap games do exist in chess. Just not in tournament settings.

How do you differentiate the pieces of you and your opponent?

This is an excellent presentation of the basic differences between Chess and Shogi. The stalemate rule in Shogi being a loss is the exact same rule as the ancient form of chess, Shahtranj or Chaturanga (which was also the ancestor to Shogi). Of course, that makes drawn games less likely than in Chess, where they are common, though usually draws in Chess are due to both sides being unable to checkmate each other due to loss of pieces or being unable to find a better board position. Shahtranj and medieval western chess had a rule where, if you take away the opponents pieces except the king, a so-called "bare board", the opponent loses. Does Shogi have a similar rule? I am assuming this is the case.
