Title: Chapter 299 Dive Into Life

Page 4:
Narr: Just like how an artist leaves paintings behind,
after a shogi player dies, they leave behind their "game notations".
If one were to look over Tanio's hundreds of game notations...
then would it feel, through shogi...
just as if...

Page 5:
Narr: one spent 10 years with him, talking to him.
Casual kinds of casual dialogue of questions and answers.
And deep conversations
like they're gripping your very heart.
And at times...
Soyo: I'd have played it this way.
Guy: Are you more into girls' chests or butts?
Ah, the old ass-guy, boob-guy question huh?
Well for me, it's gotta be

Page 6:
Guy: sexy kunoichis.
I love those, too!
Tani: Pff.
Soyo: Huh?
Guy: No, seriously, boobs or asses?
Soyo: He just laughed.
Huh? This move...
Is that a blunder?
So even he makes mistakes...

Page 7:
Soyo: He's got a cute side to him.
Narr: The feeling of learning
about those types of Tanios.
Soyo: He blundered, but...
he's still winning...
That's less cute.
I hate Tanio, but his shogi is without hate.
Himiko: His shogi does have "mate" though.
Soyo: What do you say we decide

Page 8-9:
Soyo: which of 'Tanio's shogi' is stronger?!!!!
Suga: Ukeshi-san is on the warpath and now...
she's approaching!!!
I see...
So Ukeshi-san's game has evolved even further...

Page 10:
Suga: She learned shogi from that guy.
And her body
embodies a strength
to burn that very thing
to a crisp.

Page 11:
Suga: It sounds so easy when you put it that way...
My body is just a human body, but really
it's also made of shogi.
From the first moment I touched a shogi piece
I've lived to get better...

Page 12:
Suga: I've played to get better,
and played to live.
I've played
and played
and played
to get stronger.

Page 13:
To improve
I've played
to get better
To put it simply,

Page 14-15:
Suga: I've lived in order
to get better.
If I yelled it from the bottom of my heart,
nobody would complain...
All of them...

Page 16-17:
Suga: I'll surpass
every last one of them.

Page 18-19:
Suga: My oldest
shogi memory
isn't of a game I won...
Niko: Yeah...
Suga: !!!!
Niko: You gotta remember the games ya lost.
Suga: Ni...
Ko...
Gami...
...san.
Niko: 'Sup!
Suga: It...
It's been a while...
Niko: Youv'e gotta dive deep down inta yourself!! All the way down!!
This dirty old man'll be there with ya.
Suga: Dive into the thousands of matches I've lost...
and win them all!!!!
D...
