For the past couple of years, it has been my honor to be translating Takahashi-sensei’s Instagram into English. Even though he is no longer with us, his works will be with us forever. I will continue to keep this site up as long as possible to preserve his memory.
Last time I drew the wind this time I drew 🔥 “Dragon of Flames” 👍🔥🔥😊 The other day I went to the Jomon Museum so I’ve been influenced by it 😏👍👍 Jomon SO COOL 😘
How would a game like Spheroid Chess actually work is something I’ve always been thinking about, but with things like chess the strategy behind it is considerably difficult, don’t you agree. 😓 I’m experimenting with magnets and such in making Spheroid Chess with the 3D printer but it’s not going too well 💦😱😳
My beloved dog Taro has already become an old dog, these days he can no longer go on walks 🐕💦 It’s heartbreaking 😭
Therefore the theme of this game shall be walking the dog!! 👍👍🐕
Pet owners mutually cooperate to not let their dogs that are in heat interact, and must cross the bridge without entangling the leashes, thus it is a game I’d like to recommend for dog lovers around the world!! 👍👍🐕🐕😃😳
In the world of shogi, Sota Fujii-kisei has been on a roll, and as a shogi fan I too am just so happy! 👍👍😃 This KageNin Shogi is a kind of game that uses Ninja pieces to search and strike at the Osho piece posing undercover among Kagemusha pieces; however, it is still undergoing maintenance. 💦😳😳

(NOTE 1: In the images:
Kage Nin Syo-gi [Kagemusha Ninja Shogi]
Pieces with rounded black helmets: Kage [影 Shadow, short for “Kagemusha”]
One of the black helmet pieces: Osho [王将 King General], 2nd image: DOKI DOKI
Pieces with rounded grey helmets: Nin [忍 Secret, short for “Ninja”]
NOTE 2:
Kagemusha [影武者] = A body double who poses undercover as a political figure. Literally means “shadow warrior”.
Osho [王将] = The king piece in the game of shogi. In shogi the ultimate goal is to capture this piece. Literally means “king general”.
Ninja [忍者] = A secret agent or mercenary in feudal Japan with a unique code of espionage methods and fighting techniques. Literally means “secret person”.
NOTE 3:
Shogi is a Japanese board game similar to chess known as the “Game of Generals”. Two players move various game pieces with different abilities across a board to ultimately capture the Osho king general piece. Sota Fujii is a famous professional shogi player who is the winner of the Kisei Championship in Japanese shogi, and thus is the current holder of the “Kisei” title.)
