Latest trace

A circle that plays Go, shogi, chess and other board games announces its weekly sessions in classified ads on the Jimoty board dated 2 July, 15 August, 26 August, 31 August and 9 October 2026: Saturday evenings at the Board Game Dojo in Nakano, and early-morning sessions in parks in Nakano and Shinjuku and on a terrace in Nakano. Chess is one of the games named, not the only one, and no page of the circle itself was found, so the status stays unconfirmed. Placed in Nakano by the ads' own area line and by the Dojo's address.
