      • because dreaming is still free! ...
        I would like to propose this series (2nd Chance?)

        But not so in Japan and many other Asian Countries, where "Shogi「将棋, & 囲碁」 iGo" are a LOT more popular...

Following his victory, he has been in a slump until he is approached by Ai Hinatsuru, a 9-year-old elementary school girl, who begs him to make her his disciple. Astonished by Ai's potential, Yaichi agrees to become her master, and the two then brace themselves together in the world of shogi with their friends and rivals. However, this comes with the condition imposed by Ai's mother that Yaichi is to marry Ai if she does not become a major player before graduating from middle school.

      Note: "Reality BEATS Fiction"

      From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia;

        ~ Became the youngest Japanese professional shogi player, ranked at 4-dan (currently 9-dan).
        He is the current holder of the:
        ~ Kiō,

        ~ Ōi,
        ~ Ōshō,

        & ~ Ryūō ~
        Professional Shōgi titles, and a former holder of the Eiō title. He is the youngest person to be awarded professional status by the Japan Shogi Association and one of only five players to become professional while still a junior high school student.

        It's not technically dropped, Sam/Quarkboy/admin has commented on reddit that it's just weird contract limbo

        I have insider info this is really just temporary, just waiting on a contract update to come in. No need to panic.
