The pieces used are black Kanji characters engraved on a flat pentagon, although there are slight differences in size from the king to the step. In addition, the vermilion letters on the back are used to change the role of the gold general when entering the opponent's team. These highly sophisticated pieces from ancient Japan are very easy to use for those who are familiar with the characters of shogi, but are difficult to identify for beginners of shogi, children, women, and foreigners.

The change of the piece when entering the opponent's base is to change the color by painting the back side of the picture piece, making a part of the image movable for the three-dimensional piece, attaching accessories (flag, helmet, etc.) Etc.

 [Example] [Material] Any material can be used, such as wood, metal, stone, plastic, pottery, and rubber, as long as it can form a three-dimensional image. As the shape of the picture frame, various shapes such as a conventional flat pentagon, a circle, a triangle, and a square can be used. A three-dimensional piece has a pentagonal piece on the bottom. You can use each piece's character on the bottom, or you can use images that distinguish the front and back without being completely pentagonal. The images and statues are used for people such as samurai, soldiers, animals such as horses and dragons, and objects such as spears, swords, and guns, according to their respective positions.
