The highly anticipated new romance from the acclaimed creator of Teasing Master Takagi-san is finally here!

Ayumu, a passionate admirer of his senpai Yaotome, is determined to keep his feelings hidden until he can conquer her in the strategic board game of shogi. However, his love for Yaotome is evident, and she relentlessly tries to tempt him into breaking his vow.

Fans of Don't Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro, Komi Can't Communicate, and Shikimori's Not Just a Cutie will eagerly immerse themselves in this captivating tale of love and laughter.

Yaotome, the charming president of the shogi club at her high school, is confident that her underclassman Ayumu, the sole other member, is deeply infatuated with her. They engage in daily shogi matches after school, but despite her best efforts, Yaotome cannot convince or manipulate Ayumu into revealing his true feelings. What she doesn't realize is that Ayumu has made a solemn promise to himself to confess his love only after defeating Yaotome in a shogi game. However, there's a significant obstacle in his way—Ayumu is an absolute novice at shogi, and his skills are comically lacking.

This delightful comedy not only offers a fun and engaging introduction to the world of shogi but also provides a hilarious and heartwarming experience that readers have come to expect from the talented creator of Teasing Master Takagi-san. Get ready to embark on a journey filled with laughter, romance, and strategic gameplay as Ayumu navigates his way toward confessing his love to Yaotome, all while struggling to improve his shogi skills.
