‘Soredemo Ayumu wa Yosetekuru’, alternatively known as ‘When Will Ayumu Make His Move’ is a popular Japanese manga. Its first volume came out in 2021 and since then the manga is still ongoing. It has a massive fanbase due to its less complicated storyline and the rom-com genre.

The main plot revolves around two central characters of the story Tanaka, Ayumu, and Yotome Urushi. The first-year student, Ayumu Tanaka leaves the Kendo club on a whim to join the felonious Shogi club instead which makes the president of the club happy because he is finally excited to have a new member joining the team. Yatome Urushi is not only Ayame’s senior but also an excellent shogin master. Sadly, her talent is little appreciated among the others as her club has too many vacant seats to fill.

Nonetheless, Urushi becomes Ayumu’s Shogi master with her utmost endeavor and aims to be his student role model. But the encounter with Ayumu in her life makes the air a bit heavy around her. She is used to living in solitude and never expects to catch any romantic feelings towards anybody.
