The Ryuo's Work is Never Done!
Ryuuou no Oshigoto!
Shogi, Japan's beloved strategy game, has millions of casual players, but only the absolute best compete at the professional level. The Ryuuou title—meaning "dragon king"—represents the highest honor in competitive shogi, awarded solely to the reigning champion. Yaichi Kuzuryuu becomes the youngest Ryuuou ever after winning the grand championship, but his victory doesn't feel like one. The shogi community turns on him, with critics calling him the worst Ryuuou in history. On top of that, he's completely forgotten about a promise he made to Ai Hinatsuru, a young girl he'd casually agreed to coach if he won the title. When Ai shows up at his door expecting her lessons, Yaichi reluctantly accepts. Now they're both chasing improvement through their newfound partnership—Ai determined to develop her hidden potential, and Yaichi desperate to prove he actually deserves to be champion.
