When Will Ayumu Make His Move?
Soredemo Ayumu wa Yosetekuru
Ayumu Tanaka was a kendo champ in middle school, but when he gets to high school, he ditches the expected Kendo Club and joins the Shogi Club instead—mostly because he's instantly smitten with Urushi Yaotome, the club's president and only member. He sets himself a goal: he won't confess his feelings until he can actually beat her at shogi. Problem is, Urushi is way better at the game than he is. She reads his moves like a book. But that doesn't stop Ayumu from constantly complimenting her skills, her looks, her smile—whatever. His deadpan face and blunt honesty make her blush constantly, which is definitely entertaining. As he plays more matches with her and learns the game better, he slowly inches closer to finally confessing. One move at a time.
