PLOT

Everyone from young children to the elderly enjoys playing shogi, a board game that is played in Japan and is comparable to chess. Some players possess the skills necessary to advance to the professional level of the game. Only those who excel in competitive shogi are given the title of Ryuuou, which translates to "the dragon king." Yaichi Kuzuryuu recently became the youngest Ryuuou after taking home the top prize. Though some even refer to him as the worst Ryuuou in history, the shogi community does not accept his triumph. He also disregards the deal he had with Ai Hinatsuru, a young girl he had pledged to coach if he succeeded. He grudgingly decides to keep his word and accepts Ai as his disciple after she shows up at his door. Ai wants to discover her latent skills, and Yaichi wants to show the world that he is deserving of his successes. Together, they want to progress and go beyond the bounds of their shogi prowess.
