In this anime, Ayumu makes a promise to himself that he’ll confess his devotion to his crush, but only after he beats her in a game of shogi. The romantic comedy story centers on shogi, a Japanese variant of chess. Ayumu’s crush is the president of his school’s shogi club, so don’t expect him to defeat her anytime soon.
ABOUT THE TEASER VIDEO
The revealed cast members are Yōhei Azakami as Ayumu Tanaka, Kanna Nakamura as Urushi Yaotome, Tsubasa Gouden as Takeru Kakuryu, and Hina Yomiya as Mikage Sakurako. It was also announced that the anime will premiere in July on TBS and other stations.
In this rom-com, we are in for a long ride because Ayumu is an amateur shogi player while his crush, Urushi, is a pro. What makes this anime all the cuter is the fact that Urushi likes Ayumu too, however, she is waiting for him to profess his feelings. The teaser video is a beauty to watch and it shows the fans just what to expect from this rom-com.

Ayumu’s monolog tells us about his promise to himself as he tells Urushi that she’s cute, making her blush hard. In turn, Urushi reflects on how Ayumu always gets away with making her flustered by keeping a straight face. The trailer ends with Urushi telling Ayumu to meet after school, referring to their daily shogi matches.
