How to play Shogi(将棋) -Lesson#11- Fork

[@dracoliosanches]

thank you for teaching me shogi, i always felt chess lacked something, a sense of formations attributed to the ancient art of warfare. shogi seems to give that sense for me, which i find i'm taking to shogi, more then i have chess. thank you, your lessons are doing wonders on my game play.

[@yunussutanti2788]

Fun fact, this is the only english channel explaining how to play shogi to the details

[@alazarus238]

even 12 years past, no other shogi content can be considered as great as hidetchi's lessions

[@yunussutanti2788]

@@alazarus238 yea, thats a fact

[@fineriso]

This is one of the best tutorials that i saw

[@Neithan]

I made it this far because of 'A Ryuo's work is never done'. Downloaded a Shogi app. Won my first match. 🤣 great start to 2018.

[@Neithan]

[@wenbolu6157]

n3iTh4N oh nice i didnt know. can you link me to the page? thanks very much! :)

[@Neithan]

Here is episode 1: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gnOYaYClqJucoNU The other episodes should appear in the suggestions. Have fun!

[@gamesboy123able]

omg im here too cuz of this anime

[@shingi085]

It's true that with the recent spotlight of Shogi in Naruto, especially in Shippuuden episode 82, there has been a significantly increase in Shogi interest by foreigners. I was a bit surprised too, at first. Ultimately, I think it will be the people that already play Western Chess that decide to commit to playing Shogi after a show like Naruto (or Shin Seiki Evangelion) facilitates its discovery.

[@canyoupleaserunfast]

For me it was Sangatsu on Lion😊

[@HIDETCHI]

It's "両取り逃げるべからず". Oh, I didn't know there's a scene of shogi in "エヴァンゲリオン". I think I watched all the episodes a long time ago, but I don't quite remember the story...

[@shingi085]

Yeah, in the Evangelion scene, the sharp sound of the Shogi pieces being moved can only be heard, and nothing is shown visually, so they may only be metaphorically used. Thanks for the response!

[@Vonzi0000]

at 5:38 can you also promote the lance to protect the silver?

[@hirohiigo]

@superbadhinie99 There's absolutely no rule against dropping pieces to block a check. It's a big part of shogi. The only illegal drops are drops where the piece has nowhere to go (pawn, lance, knight at the end of the board) and immediate mate with a dropped pawn. Any other drops are completely acceptable.

[@geofflusk]

Also if you drop a pawn onto a file that already has a pawn you lose the game.

[@vnano]

まさか、これ最後ですか？　もっと見たいんですよ！　次はいつか作るんですか？

[@hirohiigo]

@torntrof It's legal. Look at the square it's coming from. It starts inside the opponent's camp, so it can promote.

[@HIDETCHI]

vnanoさん、いつもコメント有難うございます。あれ、日本語話せるんですね・・・(^^; Lesson#13まであるはずですよ。その先も、まあボチボチ続けていきますんで、気長に見守って下さいm(_ _)m よろしくお願いします。

[@HIDETCHI]

I know how to play go. How about searching it in Amazon, or ebay?

[@hanafuda4832]

My own Shogi proverb goes like this. Think before you take out your fork.

[@SuperMerlin100]

There is no silver on the board or in hand at 7:06. The knight is forking a rook and a bishop.

[@gokharol]

at 6:30 the bishop could have go for the other gold! :( that would be best for the opponentm right ?

[@kj01a]

Concering the problem on 7:06 wounldn't be better if you moved the silver up in front of the knight?

[@shingi085]

Would it be possible to add the original proverb in the comments, 日本語で? I can translate, I'm just curious what it is literally.

[@vnano]

they play shogi in evangelion? when?

[@jsch8q]

what is the best move at 6:51 if white attacks the gold by a bishop drop on 3g?

[@superbadhinie99]

from 4:48 through 5:30 the demonstration of saving the rook and bishop, but in both cases white (opponent) dropped a pawn in the way to stop a check... is that illegal or is it only illegal to do that if its a checkmate or neither? and if you dont mind answering id like to know what the rule was for dropping peices other than a pawn in the path of a check or checkmate.

[@HIDETCHI]

Oh, you're right. Nice suggestion.

[@borontheborelord]

where did you get the easier to read shogi pieces?

[@geofflusk]

This game makes me feel so stupid.

[@Pk4En9]

How are on 5:39 both pieces saved?

[@heavenishell112]

If white captures the lance, the bishop will be captured. This is not a good trade for white in almost any situation, so it's unlikely that a player will make that trade

[@RayVitoles]

+Pk4En9 he could also promote the lance depends on the position of whites king(sometimes lance is better not to promote if he blocks White's king escape route

[@Gigopler]

when then rook forked the king and bishop... how did it get there? think about it

[@donpax8959]

Hahaha, I guess the rook was dropped

[@ayeshaiqbal2179]

4:52 how is the pawn on the second line? it cannot move backwards ryt?

[@enochliu8316]

Dropped there probably. Also this is just an example.

[@HIDETCHI]

Yeah! You're right.

[@MajorHalman]

@osofrontinoquantico What's eva?

[@grolich]

Nope. His move is quite legal, since the bishop left the opponent's promotion zone. You can promote whenever moving in the opponent's promotion zone, whether inside of it, into it, or from inside of it to out of it (as in this example). Whether or not it moves into your own promotion zone or not is irrelevant.

[@HIDETCHI]

White didn't captured the knight. See which player's piece stand the knight went to.

[@HIDETCHI]

英語は必死に勉強してきてなんとかこの程度です。でもまだ足りないと思っています。 vnanoさんのチャンネル覗かせて頂きました。スウェーデンにいて枚方のカラオケ? (?o?) 私は高槻市出身ですよ。 あとNARUTOで将棋が出てきたんですか。びっくりです。

[@hirohiigo]

@superbadhinie99 Oh, and two pawns in a file, of course.

[@ireneuszkrygier1238]

a ja po Polsku nawine :) mi też sie podoba :) props

[@thegamerman234gamingevolut4]

A 8:04 I thought you couldn’t drop into a Checkmate

[@damonenfurst6662]

That rule only concerns pawns. You can drop a gold general into a checkmate.

[@MXdetty]

yup thats were i saw shogi the first time Naruto Shippuuden

[@MCTimemaster]

Shion no Ou isn't great for learning to play they skip out 90+% of the game play. It is good for getting you interested in it though.

[@torntrof]

On 5:58 you are suggesting an illegal move, because your bishop can't promote in your own territory ;)

[@robertwegner8962]

It is actually a legal move because the bishop was moved from the opponent's territory.

[@vnano]

いつもって？　はは。そうですね。。 日本人？　マジで？　なんでそんなに英語を喋れるんですか？！　ほんまにすごい ははは。はーい。待っています！ｗ

[@HaterzSayHi]

you should do something like all these lessons for the game "Go"
