Abandoned by her genius shogi-player father and left in poverty after her mother's death from cancer, Asuka channels years of rage into mastering shogi herself --- aiming to become Japan's first female professional player and defeat her estranged father on the board as the ultimate act of revenge. The dark, slow-burn tension frames shogi as a battleground for broken family bonds, betrayal, and reclaiming stolen identity. An 8-episode ABEMA original with tight, cinematic editing and feature-film-quality cinematography, simultaneously streamed globally on Netflix (~34 min per episode).
