[ Story ]
Started playing shogi (Japanese chess) at young age, Eiichi and Riku grew up together, both devoted to shogi. But when they reached 20-year-old, Riku had become much stronger that Eiichi that it was impossible for him to defeat Riku. Being disappointed with his failure, Eiichi attends college, where he finds about AI programmed shogi. This encounter evokes Eiichi's passion to shogi and he puts all his efforts to create the program stronger. One day, he gets an offer for his computer shogi to play a match with a human player. As a former shogi player, Eiichi refuses this but his quest leads him down a familiar road where he once again must challenge Riku.
