Wow, I made a nice little triangle there. :P
Pretty triangle. DHx10h

Much as I'm enjoying myself, I need to take a break for a while. Our game probably won't progress as fast for a few days. Sorry.

Don't worry, as fun as Shogi may be, my life doesn't revolve around the Shogi board either, so I'll survive. ;)
I guess since I was finishing up my post to Warbler and therefore am still here, I'll make one more move, but that's it! I promise! 9fx8g igui (in other words, I moved back to my starting square on 9f).

Hopefully I won't regret leaving a wide open path straight to the end of the board in columns 8 and 9.
You'd probably regret more the placement of your Lion in an open diagonal across the board from my bishop ;) I don't think I'll be forgiving of every error you make, but when it comes to your lion placed right in harm's way, I'd rather give you a second chance.
*sigh* I thought I was covered. Sorry, I'll try to put my lion in harm's way less frequently. :P

Don't worry. I've made more than enough errors to compensate. Ln-9h

Probably can squeeze in a few moves tonight. Lnx10j igui

B-10i+ check. FYI, in Chu one must actually capture the king, who may move into check or be left in check legally (though unwisely).
I will add, since you prefer to keep games going as long as possible to resigning, that you have only one move to save your king at the present, and you are going to hate it: Ln-8k. All other options result in a dead king. And you may hate me for this, but I'd rather you not take your last move back, since I believe my trapping your lion is the result of a clever combination and not you accidentally forgetting something. Even if you do this, the game is not over and my lion will be forced to retreat per your last move. Ultimately it's up to you.
