Can you guys please help me translate this table from ShogiClub24? Specifically the 2nd columm. Except the rows of 2dan to 3kyu. https://www.shogidojo.net/24member/comparison/

So I recreated Shogi on ChessCraft and it does not have ANY DROPS! I want to recreate a irl match in this recreation.

I'm working on a small project and I'm looking for a Shogi opening book or complete games to download directly. I need it to help recognize strategies starting from a kif or sfen file. Is there a link to a database file?

Thank you very much.

I'm 62, and my nephew is 13. He's very much into chess, but our difference in the experience was a problem. My top USCF rating was 2130 a long time ago. He didn't know how to mate with a rook. So I had to give quite a lot of handicap. He still wanted to play.

Last weekend we had a hike and he started talking about chess variants. At one point I asked him if he had heard of Chinese Chess or Japanese Chess. He got immediately interested in Shogi. In a very surprisingly level of enthusiasm.

After dinner, I showed some introductory videos about the game, and he was completely taken. That's the game he wants to play.

I ordered a set, and so 10/22/2024 we both played the first Shogi game of our lives. The pieces are in Kanji, which he wanted, but I found it to be less of a problem. After half an hour I could read the board. But not very well.

I hung my bishop, and let him promote his rook next to my king. So for the next game, he's going to be the senior. I now have a book about the absolute basics, he has a memory stick of about 30 videos I downloaded for him. Soon we'll see the progress.

I would like to have feedback from shogi player on their experiences and preferences and what they would like to find in a mobile game or web app if you could answer this questionnaire that takes no more than 3 min thank you:https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSecwFh5aEaA4uLdWtgq04RmC867WYfXrC-nGn28T33\_IMnbVg/viewform?usp=sf\_link

Hello all - I'm an enormous fan of Dobutsu Shogi, and I play over a real board with several friends.

As a fun woodworking project, I'd like to make a wooden Dobutsu Shogi set with the aesthetic of a "real" Shogi set. Picture a tiny Shogi ban, with four legs and everything.

I don't have any Japanese language skills and I was wondering if anyone could help me determine the kanji for the pieces.

One Character Set

For a one-character set, perhaps the existing Japanese names for the pieces (Chick, Hen, Elephant, Giraffe, Lion) make perfect sense here?

Two Character Set

For a two-character set, some creativity might be required.

It could be nice if the two Lions have different characters, to parallel the two kings in Shogi. Maybe Forest Lion and Sky Lion? I realize the King General and Jewel General differ only by one diacritical, but that might not be possible here.

For the remaining pieces there are so many options. I like the idea of "Gold Giraffe" and "Silver Elephant", because that introduces a references to standard shogi pieces, generally matches the colors of the animals, and also corresponds slightly to the way the pieces move.

The Hen will probably only use one, very stylized character, because its parallel the Tokin only uses one character. Also the Chick/Hen tile will be the smallest in the set.

Anyway I would love to hear anyone's ideas or suggestions! Thanks in advance.

What is Shogi Ladder? A teaching ladder is a system where you learn together with an opponent one rank above you and an opponent one rank below you.

How does it work? If you choose to participate in a given weekend sign up for the weekly ladder (sign-up closes Friday 23:30 UTC). You will play two even rated games, and will analyze them together with your opponent afterward. This post-game analysis is key, it is the teaching/learning part of the teaching ladder.

How is it going? The 81Dojo club now enjoys 589 members from over 35 different countries! Last week we had 7 participants from 6 different countries. It is the premier English-language club on 81Dojo. New players continue to join each week; the club welcomes players at all levels.

Come join us! We are a community of friendly players who are serious about improving and enthusiastic about learning. What makes the teaching ladder unique is that everyone in the ladder is committed to post-game analysis in a welcoming and constructive atmosphere--it is not a tournament, but a learning tool! If you have the time to play a couple of games this week( until next Friday UTC) please consider signing up!

I have more than 300 games

I would like to import games from the Taishō and Shōwa eras to Lishogi to observe and study them. Sites in Japanese are also fine.

I have tried searching for 大正・ 昭和 将棋棋譜データベース and so on but I am not sure if the results are reliable.

this is the game where I got promoted to 6 kyu and Im very proud of this victory :3, is it as good as I see it or where there some obvious mistakes I should have in mind from now on in this climb?
TLDR just asking for advice and at the same time bragging xD
