Intrigue modifier

Dans Shion no Ō, Yasuoka Shion, une jeune collégienne qui est devenue muette depuis que ses parents ont été brutalement assassiné sous ses yeux lorsqu'elle avait cinq ans.

Plot modifier

Shion no Ō centers around a young junior-high school girl named Shion Yasuoka who witnesses the murder of her parents as a child. At the time of the murder, the killer takes the king piece from her father's shogi board (a Japanese strategy board game similar to chess). This leads her to believe that the murderer may be a shogi player. The shock of the incident renders Shion unable to speak, forcing her to communicate by writing on a pad. After being adopted by her neighbors, the Yasuoka family (where the husband is also a shogi player), Shion takes up the game herself, both for the love of the game and to possibly learn who killed her parents.

Characters modifier

Shion Yasuoka (安岡 紫音, Yasuoka Shion?)
Modèle:Anime voice
Shion Yasuoka, formerly Shion Ishiwatari (石渡 紫音, Ishiwatari Shion?) before adoption, is the main protagonist of the story. When she was five years old, Shion's parents were slaughtered in their own home, though the murderer was never found. Shion, being a young girl at the time, was traumatized by bearing witness to the aftermath and since then has been mute. To communicate, she writes down everything on a notepad. At the murder scene, Shion found a king shogi piece and later comes to suspect that the culprit plays the game.
When the story begins, Shion is thirteen and is in junior-high school. She loves sweets, though chocolate is her favorite. Due to her foster father's influence, Shion eventually starts to play shogi which she hopes will give her clues about the murder of her parents.
Makoto Hani (羽仁 真, Hani Makoto?)
Modèle:Anime voice
Makoto is a professional shogi player and is referred to by many as Meijin (名人?), the highest and most prestigious professional shogi rank in Japan (similar to a World Chess Champion). A keen and perceptive man who abandoned his brother after their mother's death to become a professional player himself.
Satoru Hani (羽仁 悟, Hani Satoru?)
Modèle:Anime voice
Satoru is Makoto's younger brother and works as a businessman. Aside from that, he is also a gifted shogi player himself, who dreams to one day defeat his brother in an official match. His girlfriend was working with Shion's dead parents, and mysteriously died one day after them.
Ayumi Saitō (斉藤 歩, Saitō Ayumi?)
Modèle:Anime voice
Ayumi is a fifteen-year-old male shogi player. Due to his sickly mother, he had to leave high school to take care of her and pay for her hospital bills. When playing shogi, he pretends to be a girl in order to earn money for competing; due to the male league taking two years to qualify. In the anime, after episode sixteen, he plays as a boy. Progressively through the series, he seems to care very much about Shion, saying that he wants to protect her. Many people often tease him about being Shion's boyfriend, causing him to become embarrassed. When he plays against Satoru, Meijin's younger brother, he reveals that his father was once a shogi player.
Saori Nikaidō (二階堂 沙織, Nikaidō Saori?)
Modèle:Anime voice
Saori is a female shogi player and apprentice to Makoto. She is eighteen years old, and a fan of Shion. As befitting the daughter of a high-class family, her type of shougi is usually dignified. She deeply seeks recognition from Makoto, who she looks up to.[1]

Osamu Kamizono (神園 修, Kamizono Osamu?)
Modèle:Anime voice
A secluded 9-dan shogi player. Despite his grumpy exterior earning him the nickname "demon," Kamizono seems to have a kind spirit, as he not only accepted Ayumi as his apprentice, even after discovering his secret, but also lent some money to Shinji when he decided to adopt Shion. He's implied to place a great deal of value in family, refusing a disciple who abandoned his brother to learn from him but accepting one who would do anythiing to save his mother.
