Not to be that guy but Ayanokoji has canonically beaten chess engines. Even GM’s say chess is about pattern recognition not intellect. So whomever has the most experience is best.
OH ACTUALLY I JUST REMEBERED there is a dragon ball character that knows everything, so he has more experience in pattern recognition than anybody!
Once again, dragon ball solos.
Zuno.
Hey fellow chess and anime fans! 👋
I’ve been thinking lately — if anime characters played chess, who would actually be the best at it?
Would Light Yagami dominate with psychological traps? Would Lelouch plan 10 moves ahead like it’s Code Geass 4D chess?
Or maybe someone totally unexpected. 😏♟️
As a proud fan of both chess and anime (and yeah, my LucarioGambit might give it away... to myself🦊), I’m super curious what others think.
Your turn!
Drop your pick for:
🧠 Best anime chess player
🔍 Their likely opening or playstyle
♟️ What chess piece they’d represent
🎭 How they’d act during a match
Bonus: Share an anime character who would be terrible at chess too 😅
Let’s have some fun with this — creativity welcome! 🖌️
