Summary: As a child, Shion Ishiwatari's parents were murdered in their own home. Shion escaped unharmed, yet the trauma caused her to lose her voice. The only evidence police found was a shougi board and one piece "the King". Neighbours and close friends of the family, Shinji and Sachiko Yasuoka, adopted Shion and taught Shion how to play shougi. As the years passed, she became known as a genius and quite a famous player. Now, as her fame rises, her past resurfaces and she discovers that being a professional shogi player may just lead to finding her parents' killer.

Shion no Oh is definitely for the person who likes a few twists in an anime. I thought I had the murderer figured out by episode 8, but I was pleasently surprised at the end. This anime was fun to watch, and kept me guessing everytime. Knowing how to play shougi is not required, but i'm sure it would have been nice to actually know what was going on during the matches. This is an anime that should be on everyones list to watch!
