After furigoma do you exchange Kings based on the result? Or rotate the board?

[HIDETCHI]

It's just that the superior player of the two uses the king general.

King/Jewel doesn't have anything to do with black/white.

I don't understand why the piece shuffle has to be 5 pawns, why not 1? Like the spare one in the set. Is there some practical reason for it to be 5 or is it purely traditional?

[gokharol]

Sorry, I did not understand, so the player A places all his pieces, and only then then player B make his move?

[konsyjes]

Yes, I can definitely feel the solemnity XD

Interesting traditional ways ^^, I wish US and other countries were more honorable and traditional, but in a case like US, they are modern(about 250), while japan existed for centuries, thus developing honor and respect with tradition. that's 1 reason why I love Japan. thanks for this lesson Hidetchi-sensei ^^!

@simonguoxm: I can't think of any way to manipulate the furigoma. However, in professional title matches, usually the moderator performs furigoma, not the players.

[maskotka11]

Learn nicely me, please is correct.

[simonguoxm]

Is it possible that someone manipulate the "piece toss"?

[simonguoxm]

Yes, this is a little better. I don't need to drain my brain.
