Plot
Edit
Yaichi Kuzuryū is a prodigy shogi player who won the title of
Ryūō at the age of 16. Following his victory he has been in a slump, until he is approached by Ai Hinatsuru, a 9-year-old girl who begs him to make her his disciple. Astonished by Ai's potential, Yaichi agrees to become her master, and the two then brave themselves together in the world of shogi with their friends and rivals. He is to marry her if she does not win the contest by the time she is done with school.
Although often accused by other women in the story to be a
Lolicon , he consistently denies the charge, although he seems unable to build any deeper relationship with mature women or even turning them away.
