980-400: A kind of forced promotion.) Pieces may promote to other pieces, as the pawn automatically does in orthodox chess on the last rank: the pawn has a choice of what it promotes to. In xiangqi, pawns automatically promote as soon as they cross the river in the middle of the board, but this promotion is fixed and only gives them the power to move sideways as well as forward. In shogi, the pawn is not

The exceptions are locusts which are pieces that capture by hopping over its victim. They are sometimes considered a type of hopper. There are no hoppers in Western chess. In xiangqi (Chinese chess), the cannon captures as

Marine pieces have names alluding to the sea and its myths, e.g., nereide (marine bishop), triton (marine rook), mermaid (marine queen), and poseidon (marine king). Examples named for non-mythical sea creatures include the seahorse (marine knight), dolphin (marine nightrider), anemone (marine guard or mann), and prawn (marine pawn). Games that consist of these marine pieces, known as "sea chesses", are often played on larger boards to account for these pieces needing more squares available for their locust-like capturing moves. In addition to combining

The second letter can instead be a number, which is a limitation on how many times the leap motion can be repeated; for example, W4 describes a rook limited to 4 spaces of movement. R4 is an old synonym for W4. Combining multiple movement letters into

A limited ranging piece moves like a rider, but only up to a specific number of steps. An example is the short rook from Chess with different armies : it moves like a rook, but only up to a distance of 4 squares. From a1, it can travel in one move to b1, c1, d1, or e1, but not f1.

Tamerlane chess and chu shogi allow multiple royals to be created via promotion. With multiple royal pieces the game can be won by capturing one of them (absolute royalty), or capturing all of them (extinction royalty). The rules can also impose
6860-462: The mutual attack is broken by an outside piece. The basilisk from Ralph Betza's Nemoroth inflicts a permanent form of this paralysis (but paralysed pieces may be pushed by the go away , another piece in the game, so they are only prevented from moving of their own accord); the ghast from the same game restricts friendly pieces within two squares of it to moves that take them geometrically further from it, and compels enemy pieces to do so (similar to
6958-503: The old Japanese variants where it is common. Baroque chess has many examples of pieces that do not capture by replacement, such as the withdrawer , a piece which captures an adjacent piece by moving directly away from it. The lion in chu shogi , as do the pieces in Marseillais chess , can move twice per turn : such pieces are common in the old Japanese variants of chess, termed shogi variants , where they are called lion moves after
7056-451: The only piece that can promote; promotion can occur if a move takes place partly or wholly in the last three ranks from the player's viewpoint, and is optional unless the piece could not move further, but a piece's promotion is fixed. In dai dai shogi , promotion (again fixed depending on the piece) happens when a piece that can promote makes a capture, and may not be refused. Pieces may also have restrictions on where they can go. In xiangqi,
7154-586: The original voice cast reprising their roles from the series. Majorika, and also the recurring characters Amitie, Spica, Sonia, Tilura and Kirin with the Ojamajo outfit, also were made playable. A bonus of Doremi in her regular clothing was also made available to accounts who logged in to the game for the first time. In October 2020, Ojamajo Doremi partnered with the Bushiroad mobile game BanG Dream! Girls Band Party! to promote Looking for Magical Doremi . As part of
7252-553: The orthodox knight is described as a (1,2)-leaper or a (2,1)-leaper. The table to the right shows common (but by no means standard) names for the leapers reaching up to 4 squares, together with the letter used to represent them in Betza notation, a common notation for describing fairy pieces. Although moves to adjacent squares are not strictly "leaps" by the normal use of the word, they are included for generality. Leapers that move only to adjacent squares are sometimes called step movers in
7350-563: The other girls track down the runaway flower before it starts to reproduce. Mōtto! Ojamajo Doremi: The Secret of the Frog Stone ( も～っと!おジャ魔女どれみ: カエル石のひみつ , Mōtto! Ojamajo Doremi: Kaeru Ishi no Himitsu ) was the series' second theatrical release. It was directed by Shigeyasu Yamauchi and hit theaters on July 14, 2001, screened between Digimon Tamers: Battle of Adventurers and Kinnikuman: Second Generations . During Doremi and her friends' summer vacation, they visit her grandparents in
7448-548: The picture book Ojamajo Doremi Story Picture Book: The Best Present ( おジャ魔女どれみ おはなしえほん さいこうの おくりもの ) , called Ojamajo Doremi: Heartwarming Theater ( おジャ魔女どれみ ほのぼの劇場 , Ojamajo Doremi: Honobono Gekijō ) was exclusively produced as a reward for the Ojamajo Doremi 20th Anniversary Thanks Festival crowdfunding campaign in 2020. Toei Animation commissioned an English dub of the pilot episode from Ocean Productions to shop for potential licensors. 4Kids Entertainment licensed
7546-499: The piece. Pieces from shogi (Japanese chess) are usually wedge-shaped chips, with kanji characters identifying the piece. Fairy pieces vary in the way they move, but some may also have other special characteristics or powers. The joker (in one of its definitions) mimics the last move made by the opponent. So for example, if White moves a bishop, Black can follow by moving the joker as a bishop. The orphan has no movement powers of its own, but moves like any enemy piece attacking it: so if
7644-406: The pieces from xiangqi , a Chinese game similar to chess. The most common are the leo , pao and vao (derived from the Chinese cannon) and the mao (derived from the horse). Those derived from the cannon are distinguished by moving as a hopper when capturing, but otherwise moving as a rider. Pieces from xiangqi are usually circular disks, labeled or engraved with a Chinese character identifying
7742-413: The pieces with such moves repeat one kind of basic step up to a fixed number of times, and must stop when they capture. However, unlike other riders, they may change direction during their move, and do not have a fixed path shape like riders or bent riders do. A hopper is a piece that moves by jumping over another piece (called a hurdle ). The hurdle can be any piece of any color. Unless it can jump over
7840-538: The players start with a short archbishop, a short chancellor, a crowned rook, a crowned bishop may be called “Half” Capablanca chess for replacing one part of the compounds with a shorter range move. The knighted compounds show that a compound piece may not fall into any of the three basic categories from above: a princess slides for its bishop moves (and can be blocked by obstacles in those directions), but leaps for its knight moves (and cannot be blocked in those directions). (The names princess and empress are common in
7938-507: The power of a ferz, but only forward and for capturing; the power of a rook with a limited range of 2 squares, but only forward, without capturing, and on its first move; the power to be replaced by a more powerful piece, but only upon reaching its last rank; and the power to capture en passant . A piece that moves and captures differently, like the pawn, is called divergent . There are some powerful notation systems, described below, that can more succinctly represent arbitrary combinations of
8036-469: The powers of pieces, pieces can also be modified by restricting them in certain ways: for example, their power might only be used for moving, only for capturing, only forwards, only backwards, only sideways, only on their first move, only on a specific square, only against a specific piece, and so on. The horse in xiangqi (Chinese chess) is a knight that cannot leap: it can be blocked on the square orthogonally adjacent to it. The stone general from dai shogi
8134-696: The problemist tradition: in chess variants involving these pieces they are often called by other names, such as archbishop and chancellor in Capablanca chess , or cardinal and marshal in Grand Chess , respectively.) Combinations of known pieces with the falcon from falcon chess are named winged pieces, in Complete Permutation Chess not only winged knight, bishop, rook, and queen are featured, but also winged marshal, winged cardinal, and winged amazon. Marine pieces are compound pieces consisting of
8232-416: The riders in orthodox chess are examples of sliders. Riders can create both pins and skewers . One popular fairy chess rider is the nightrider , which can make an unlimited number of knight moves in any direction (like other riders, it cannot change direction partway through its move). The names of riders are often obtained by taking the name of its base leaper and adding the suffix "rider". For example,

8428-465: The series, Doremi and the others come across a rival witch apprentice, Onpu Segawa who has been using forbidden magic to influence people's memories. After passing the final witch test, their identities are revealed to their families and friends. Onpu wipes the memories of those that attempt to expose them to prevent their identities from being revealed. She uses forbidden magic too many times, losing control of it. In order to save Onpu from an eternal sleep,
8526-426: The series, but stated it would depend on sales. Following the announcement of the new movie, a new light novel volume, Ojamajo Doremi 20’s , was announced for release in summer 2019, but it was delayed to October 2, 2019. Yumi Kageyama replaced Midori Kuriyama as author for this installment. During the run of Ojamajo Doremi Dokkān! , Toei hosted live events with dance performances by select actresses who portrayed
8624-402: The simplest example. The lion is a king with the power to move twice per turn: thus it can capture a piece and then move on, possibly capturing another, or returning to its original square. When a double-moving piece captures and then returns to its original square, it acts like a shooting piece. Some classes of pieces come from a certain game, and will have common characteristics. Examples are
8722-550: The simplest fairy chess pieces do not appear in the orthodox game, but they usually fall into one of three classes. There are also compound pieces that combine the movement powers of two or more different pieces. A leaper is a piece that moves directly to a square a fixed distance away. A leaper captures by occupying the square on which an enemy piece sits. The leaper's move cannot be blocked (unlike elephant and horse in Xiangqi and Janggi ) – it "leaps" over any intervening pieces – so
8820-563: The square next to it, but it can be blocked there.) These are in general called ski -pieces: the picket is a ski-bishop. A skip -rider skips over the first and then every odd cell in its path: it cannot be blocked on the squares it skips. Thus a skip-rook would be a dabbabarider, and a skip-bishop would be an alfilrider. A slip -rider is similar, but skips over the second and then every even cell in its path. In some shogi variants (variants of Japanese chess), there are also area moves . These are similar to limited ranging pieces in that
8918-410: The squirrel can move to any square 2 units away (combining the knight and alibaba). The phoenix combines the wazir and alfil, while the kirin combines the ferz and dabbaba: both appear in chu shogi , an old Japanese chess variant that is still sometimes played today. An amphibian is a combined leaper with a larger range than any of its components, such as the frog , a (1,1)-(0,3)-leaper. Although
9016-415: The target demographic were watching the show. During Magical DoReMi’s first television season in Japan, the merchandise grossed over $ 100 million. The mobile puzzle game Puyopuyo!! Quest presented a Ojamajo Doremi collaboration event between November 15 to 25, 2019. As part of the event, Doremi, Hazuki, Aiko, Onpu and Momoko with the first season outfit were made available as playable characters, with
9114-527: The threeleaper (0,3), camel (1,3), zebra (2,3), and tripper (3,3). The giraffe , stag, and antelope are level-4 leapers (1,4), (2,4), and (3,4). Many of these basic leapers appear in Tamerlane chess . A rider , or ranging piece , is a piece that moves an unlimited distance in one direction, provided there are no pieces in the way. Each basic rider corresponds to a basic leaper, and can be thought of as repeating that leaper's move in one direction until an obstacle
9212-461: The time slot for Yume no Crayon Oukoku after its end and lasted from February 7, 1999, to January 30, 2000, with a new episode airing every week. The series soon followed with direct sequels, Ojamajo Doremi # ( おジャ魔女どれみ しゃーぷっ , Ojamajo Doremi Shāpu ) , Mōtto! Ojamajo Doremi ( も〜っと! おジャ魔女どれみ ) , and Ojamajo Doremi Dokkān! ( おジャ魔女どれみドッカ〜ン! ) until January 26, 2003. Each series lasted from 49 to 51 episodes. On June 26 to December 11, 2004,
9310-629: The traditional chess moves (excluding castling and en passant capture) are: Ralph Betza created a classification scheme for fairy chess pieces (including standard chess pieces) in terms of the moves of basic pieces with modifiers. Capital letters stand for basic leap movements, ranging from single-square orthogonal moves to 3×3 diagonal leaps: W azir, F erz, D abbaba, K N ight, A lfil, T H reeleaper (ort H ogonal), C amel, Z ebra, and dia G onal (3,3)-leaper. C and Z are equivalent to obsolete letters L (Long Knight) and J (Jump) which are no longer commonly used. Longer leaps are specified here by
9408-684: The way they move , but they may also follow special rules for capturing, promotions, etc. Because of the distributed and uncoordinated nature of unorthodox chess development, the same piece can have different names, and different pieces can have the same name in various contexts. Most are symbolised as inverted or rotated icons of the standard pieces in diagrams, and the meanings of these "wildcards" must be defined in each context separately. Pieces invented for use in chess variants rather than problems sometimes instead have special icons designed for them, but with some exceptions (the princess , empress , and occasionally amazon ), many of these are not used beyond
9506-480: Was released nationwide on November 13, 2020. Throughout the run of the series, multiple singles, albums, and compilations were distributed.
