Kings of Shogi

In the early 2010s, Pika Édition published Kings of Shogi, an eight-issue comic series that brings the ancient Japanese board game of shogi to life through dramatic, character-driven storytelling. With its focus on strategy and rivalry, the series stands out for making a cerebral pastime feel as thrilling as any sports manga. Most closely associated with its writer and artist, the series captures the tension and artistry of competitive shogi, offering a niche but compelling entry in the European comics landscape.
