棋 - Chess Piece
Long ago in Edo, a giant rocket painted with shogi crests landed in the garden.
Beside it stood a polished Tree, its wood carved into Go stones that clicked like festival drums.
From the rocket’s hatch, a tiny crab carrying the banner of “其” waddled out, declaring: “This is the birth of the Chess Piece-wood (Tree), sound, and flight (rocket) all in one!”
Every time you picture that rocket, the tree, and the crab together, you’ll remember the playful heart of the Chess Piece.
