So why don't we have a good anime about chess? We've got anime for mahjong, go, karuta, etc. I can't think of any standout examples of any anime/manga about chess.
I want chess with anime girls and power levels.
You read manga if you want variety.

Code Geass? NGNL?

Because japs don't play chess.

But there's no translated manga about chess either.
There're some that take inspiration from it, but none about the actual game.
Or atleast this is how it was the last time I checked.

You learn moon if you actually want to read manga.
That's because you can't do chess.
I'd like a shonen story of Bobby Fisher though.
Japs can't play chess.

They have Shogi though, and that's the closest you will probably get for a chess.
>yfw there's no spinoff of A:LAB where iroh is in a pai sho tournament
>not having superior fire land women characters
>not having him siege ba sing sei while at the same time defeating generals in Pai sho
>discuss the back story behind the white lotus
>have his initiation be a pai sho match
We could do this anon.

they have shogi, why would nips care for a gaijin game?
>>150447643
I'd actually be ver open to an anime about that.

I would watch an anime about an absolute madman playing chess
