Hot dang. It's a real gut-punch. Shimada loosing by such a slip, victim of the same issue of pre-judging his adversary as "too good to make mistakes like this" and not seeing it... Yet at the same time our MC finally picks himself up and sees a brilliant strike. This is so much more balanced and nuanced and character driven than hikaru no go was... But it's a shame it doesn't teach us more about shogi in order to appreciate the games more.
