Mr. Miyagi:

"Shogi and chess, different they are. Board size, pieces, movement, all different. In shogi, captured piece can be dropped back onto the board by the player who captured it. Also, pieces can be promoted when they reach the opponent's side of the board. Like karate, shogi requires strategy and patience. Both offer unique challenges and experiences."

Yoda:

"Shogi and chess, similar they are. Strategic thinking and planning, both require. But different, they are. Board size, pieces, movement, objectives, all different. In shogi, pawn can be promoted and used to checkmate opponent's king. In chess, only certain pieces can be promoted. Play shogi, if seek different gameplay experience, you do."



Shogi and chess are both board games that share some similarities, but they also have several significant differences. Here are some of the main differences between shogi and chess:

Board size and pieces: Shogi is played on a board that is larger than the standard chessboard, with 81 squares instead of 64. The pieces used in shogi are also different from chess pieces. Each player in shogi starts with 20 pieces, including pieces called generals, knights, lances, and pawns. Shogi also features pieces called silver generals, gold generals, and a promoted pawn, which add additional dimensions to gameplay.

Captured pieces: When a piece is captured in shogi, it becomes the property of the player who captured it and can be dropped back onto the board by that player on a later turn as one of their own pieces. In chess, captured pieces are permanently removed from the board.

Promotions: In shogi, when a piece reaches the opponent's side of the board, it can be promoted to a more powerful piece. Promoted pieces have additional moves and abilities that make them more versatile than their unprompted counterparts. In chess, pawns are the only pieces that can be promoted, and they can only be promoted to a queen, rook, bishop, or knight.

Movement: Many of the pieces in shogi move differently than their counterparts in chess. For example, generals (equivalent to kings in chess) can move one square in any direction, while knights move one square forward and then one square to the side. Lances can only move forward and cannot capture pieces that are in front of them.

Objectives: The ultimate objective of shogi and chess is similar, which is to checkmate the opponent's king. However, in shogi, there is an additional way to win the game: by promoting a pawn to a piece called a "tokin" and using it to checkmate the opponent's king.
