The shogi part of this manga was supervised by Japanese 9th-dan player Manabu Saki. The story of the comic tells the story of a 17-year-old professional chess player Kiriyama Rei, who lost his family in an accident when he was a child. He was accepted as a disciple by his father's friend, the chess player Koda, but life under someone else's roof was not easy. Gradually, Kiriyama Rei became very lonely in life and shogi, and was unable to integrate into the group. After entering high school, Kiriyama Rei began to live alone in June Town. After entering high school, he was isolated in the class and could not achieve good results in professional shogi competitions. Just when Kiriyama Rei felt that he had encountered a bottleneck and was stagnant, he was drunk by a senior chess player one day and was taken home by Kawamoto Akari, the eldest daughter of the Kawamoto family who lived in March Town to be taken care of. From then on, Kiriyama Rei met the three sisters of the Kawamoto family, and gradually felt the warmth of the family in getting along with the three sisters. In the subsequent development, Kiriyama Rei announced in front of everyone in the Kawamoto family that he would marry Kawamoto Hinata, the second daughter of the Kawamoto family in the future.
