"Rei Kiriyama is a seventeen-year-old professional shogi player who lives alone in Tokyo's uptown. Unfortunately, the young man lost his family at a young age, sending his life into a deep world of solitude. This is a heartfelt tale of how he recovers his life upon coming into contact with the Kawamoto sisters--Akari, Hinata, and Momo." -- Page [4] cover.

" Kiriyama is moving up the ranks and now he is even appearing on television. With the new exposure means, more unusual exposure to his friends, family and classmates. Suddenly everyone seems to know what he meant when he said playing Japanese chess is his profession. But that doesn't mean he's suddenly a celebrity. But being in magazines and on TV does have its perks, as well as its drawbacks."--Provided by publisher.

Rei is ill after a few stressful tournaments but rushing to his aide are the Kawamoto sisters. They hold an intervention and spirit him away to their place after they find that he was sick and had forgotten to charge his phone. Even when times are down for the young shogi phenom, there are still old friends that are out there to watch over him however the pieces fall.
