From: Tarin Clanuwat CLICKTA COM> Date: 3 may 2002 Subject: Re: Shogi-Manga serie? I am a person who always looks for Shogi manga. I know some of them. -5go no ryuu : I have no idea with this manga.. It was published too long before I started shogi. - Gekka no kishi is a famous one, but I don't quite like because the characters are weird. Story is very long, I don't know whether it's end or not. About 30+ books. - Ayumu no Koma is another boy's comics about Shogi. It was published in Shonen Sunday about 2 years ago. The story is about a boy who entered shoureikai and became a pro. 5 comics. Not very long also not very famous.. that's why it's short. - Satoshi This comic is a great one. The story is the biography of Murayama Satoshi who has passed away 5-6 years ago. He was a great pros. This comic published in Big Comics. I think there are 5 books. - Shounen shyuuhasuu : Ousama no kifu This one is girls comics.. characters with big eyes and it doesn't talk about shogi itself very much but all of the characters are pros (mostly they became pros in their teens). They have to be young.. or else no girls would read this comics. Very very very hard to find now. I bought them from used bookstore. - Futarikko : This comics became a drama for NHK a few years ago. The story is about a girl who entered shoureikai and become pro. The not only say about Shogi but also love stories and so on. It's drama. 4 comics. This one also hard to find. I have to get them from used book stores. - 365ho no Yuki : This is a new comic, publishing in Shonen Sunday. They just released the first issue in the middle of last month! This comic is written by Shinji Saijo. His comics are famous in my country , but I don't know whether it will become successful for Shogi society or not. I just ordered Vol 1 from Amazon Japan. I think I will get it tomorrow. If you want to know how it's like, I can tell you tomorrow. :) - There are also comics published in kindai shogi magazine.. I don't know the story, but since the pictures are not beautiful so it doesn't catch my interest very much.. I have all of these comics I said except 5go no ryuu and gekka no kishi Vol 8+ (I stopped buying it before I eer... well.. ). I like to collect Shogi comics and hope that one day , there will be a successful shogi comics like Hikaru no go too. I love Hikaru no go very much though. Tarin P.S. I will write more if I can think of any other shogi comics. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Henrik Hellberg" HOTMAIL COM> To: TECHUNIX TECHNION AC IL> Sent: Friday, May 03, 2002 12:33 AM Subject: Shogi-Manga serie? > Hi! > > Is there anyone who knows if there is a Manga serie about shogi, I have > found one about Go (Hikaru no Go), but none about shogi. > If you know how the get it (if it exist), please tell me. > > Thank you! > /Henrik Hellberg > > _________________________________________________________________ > H $BgN (Bta MSN Explorer kostnadsfritt p $B!& (Bhttp://explorer.msn.se/intl.asp >
