Things that were missing: - high stakes (if you lose, you die) - a long cut scene to establish motivation for both characters, and why they can’t afford to lose - the value of friendship
-Majority of the gameplay will be filled with their flashback and character development while a little amount of it will be actual combat. -Following their defeat, previous opponents will help out protagonist to defeat their next rivals.
Joma still hasn't learnt the value of friendship and believing in the heart of the pieces, that's why he lost. It's still before his character development, probably.
@@josephtraverso2700 Well, those are just opening traps, but being backranked smothered by your own pawns shows fundamental inexperience with the game. You don't monitor what your opponent is doing or even spend a single move to ensure your king's safety.
True. I played professional chess and it's exactly like that. You are talking to yourself and address your opponent in your mind. Helps to boost confidence and change focus. This video felt like nostalgia more than anything (haven't played professionally in 8 years) 😊
"Joma played the King's pawn opening. This was his first mistake. We shall now send an intercontinental ballistic missile to exploit this opportunity."
GREAT, now we enter Joma's training arc, where in the second season he must find a Sensei, go on a brutal training in the mountains and face formidable foes in order to prepare against this guy, which is much stronger than we previously thought and it's also training hard. Second season will also develop the motivation and passion of the two for chess, in a bunch of metaphorical and even exaggerated ways, connecting pieces moves with the mechanics of the universe, human condition and life.
You forgot the 200+ different shocked reactions from background characters watching the game. And that one smart dude with glasses explaining the situation.
The idea of the protagonist (king) sacrificing his allies for a tactical advantage is crazy Even the idea of “trading queens” would be hilarious in a show
I like how the characters explained their moves like special attacks in one piece. “This attack is the double hurricane pincer attack. Where 2 knights trudged their way forward in a circle. Your puny pawns aren’t gonna save you! “
You normally end the game with mate. If you want to be dramatic, the looser can push over his own king, but actually capturing the king is really rude tbh.
The only game that kind of came close to it is “Hakuro No Go”. I enjoyed it even though I don’t know the game lol 😂 th-cam.com/video/FB7dFjQxCIk/w-d-xo.html
I would love a chess anime as well, but not sure how well it would fair out, you would have to have all the anime cliches for it to work. Now and days people want over the top action and explosives, the only chess show we have (had) was the Queen's gambit and that wasn't an anime and it was short lived.😔 We can always hope though.😌
@@sladewilson4631I recently discovered a manga named "Blitz." Although it is classified as manga, it is actually a multi-country work involving people many countries. It bares a similarity to "Hikaru No Go" and involves a young man named Tom who, in order to get close to a girl he likes who loves Chess, decides to take up Chess. I won't say more because of spoilers, but I enjoyed the first volume, I'm reading the second, and I'm looking forward to reading the remaining volumes that have been released. I would not be surprised to see it turned into an anime in the future.
1:01 Daaaamn, that's actually a really smart way to visually demonstrate!!! It keeps noobs on track and it's really intuitive once you know the codification.
The game changed mid video, he opened with king's gambit which is 1. E4, E5, 2. F4 ExF4, in 2:13 you can see his F pawn is exactly in the front of his king on F2, and in chess pawns cannot move backwards so this means the game changed
@@arya7525 Actually, the position is taken from The Game of the Century, a game played in 1956 between Donald Byrne and Robert Fischer, where White did not castle.
I like how the title is "if chess was anime" but this is really just exactly how chess is like. The only "anime" aspect are the sound and visual effects (most of them still do play out in my mind while playing lol)
The Hokuto no Ken quote was epic 😂 Great great job man! Maybe the final could have had more drama (something like the world circling around him, memories of his hard training costantly beaten by his master and so on 😁)
Absolutely Love this video, Awesome. Yu-Gi-Oh (Original) Anime will always be absolute favourite classic to watch. It was my very first Anime I watched and would never change swap it for another. Keep Doing Your Best (Ganbattene!) 👍😁
You forgot the fundamental part of explaining the move you're doing. "I select my bishop, this piece allows me to move in all diagonal directions but I must have no obstacle to take your pawn. With that I attack, bishop to b5"
where is the flashback where his dying friends tell him to continue fighting then he does the 500 iq king sacrifice where he plays his king next to his opponents king
I love how anime about real games and sports are full of players who don't know the rules. Eyeshield 21 treated the extra point after a touchdown as some kind of super-secret trap card, only to slam down Two-Point Conversion the Forbidden One. Hikaru no Go gets a pass for starring a ghost who doesn't know how the rules changed after he died.
Imagine they will do a chess anime where the mc and his opponent are playing a rapid blitz tournament and they will do the death note where kira is writing so fast😂
U forgot the wind and auras that comes up in critical moments like winning and loosing. Some perspective changes and art style changes, they change clothes or even the color, doing very dramatic poses
I agree. The pieces themselves could be the source of humor during play. That occurred in "Yu-Gi-Oh GX" in one episode whether the cards start speaking (it involved a player using a card that caused all of the played male monsters to fall in love with her female monster and turn against Jaiden).

This is so accurate to the point of replicating how studios run out of money for B-Rolls and how the king gets captured in anime.
supposed to shout checkmate when they lose

This is not accurate. We all know that the protagonist always win with the power of friendship and love.
