As a person who follows chess, it is absolutely no shame even for the world champion to lose to a computer as everyone has accepted that they are way stronger but people like to watch people play chess rather than computers, that's why chess championships are still valid and not overtaken by computers.
also "never lost a game in his life" and "firt player ever to be beaten by a computer"... I don't think the guys who wrote the movie know a lot about recent chess history. Not to talk about the fact that the public and commentator ridicule him for it life
I really was expecting a really messed up ending where the wife actually never loved him or something like that. Didn't expect it to be a wholesome ending. Great stuff. 😂
@Safwaan yeah you can only imagine how the pressure would get to you at that level of competition. Not to mention your brain running possible moves nonstop.
Why did he stop playing chess after loosing against bot, when current world Champion Magnus Carlsen does not stop playing chess after loosing against bot, because he knows how much better the bot is in the game of chess.
I like how people legitimately laughed at GMs losing to computers, eventhough there was no way for even super above average humans to beat machines thinking hundreds of thousands of moves ahead.
A computer can see every single move that exists and could happen. Especially today's computers and software. Every single chess scenario in the universe is like a drop of water in an ocean of what a modern computer can pull off. I'm really high idk if I typed that last sentence correctly but I tried my best.
@@user-vy8op6rr8r I wish I could wrap my head around that more. I'm not a chess player lol. I just can't see a properly done software not being able to forsee any and every outcome at any time regardless of illegal moves. But again I say, I'm not a chess player so I can't fully wrap my head around it haha.
The beginning of the movie was a replica of when Garry Kasparov was beaten by Deep Blue. It was a big moment when computers officially defeated humans.
@@mifigor1935 Not "almost", it's impossible. If the top 10 players all in their prime teamed up, had access to all theoretical material, had infinite time and played 10 billion matches against a top computer like Stockfish, they wouldn't win a single game.
Is it that in chess you still cant put king infront the queen, because if you lose the king. The game is over, so all times when king is threathed you must protect the king or move th king, but you cant put king infront something to defend something with king.
An accurate summary of this movie would be: Are you severely depressed? We can cure that by putting you through trauma! Okay I know it's just a film, but if it were real life Akira would have serious trust issues afterwards.
As someone who knows chess well, I have no clue how he was so disappointed and everyone was surprised when he lost. No matter how good a human is at chess, our brains cannot process 200 million possible scenarios in a second, like that computer could. That's why we don't do PC vs. Human being matches anymore, it's 'cause it's not fair.
I was more curious with how could he get to a position where he lost his knight and rook. Also, that the enemy would capture the queen while being checked by a knight.
Yes but it's based on the Real life, when GM Garry Kasparov (World champion) lost for the first time to a computer(deep blue) and because back then there were not computers like we knows today, people were surprise how a computer can defeat a human.
@@fardinsediqi7583 Considering computer at that time wast just a little bit smarter than calculator, of course they would be surprised. Even now people still freak out when computer can do better job than them (especially mundane repetitive stuff).

As a chessplayer, we know that we can't win against an advanced computer. Even Magnus Carlsen refused to saying it's not a real chess. Not disappointed with the ending though.

I love how world thinks losing to a chess computer is bad because many think of chess bots as bots in shooter games which is not the case One of the first chess computers went off against Gary Kasparov, the greatest player of his time and gave him a massive competition, computers are able to analyze and think of moves ahead, if the position is +1 the computer will convert it to +11 I can barely keep up against stockfish level three and have never won a single round against stockfish level 4, stockfish 14 is already a nightmare

What confuses me is, I thought the King is never really "killed" but it just reaches check mate, meaning Akira's life shouldn't have ever been in danger.
That's the thing, Akira made the illegal move to move his king into Checkmate position, which is impossible, this is the reason the computer Super Blue "malfunctioned"
No, Akira Have DEPRESSION And The Idea Is, To Give His Brain PTSD.....

This story is similar to actual story of former world champion Garry Kasparov . But the difference is , first he won by 4-2 and then he lost by 3.5-2.5 and also he didn't quit chess , rather he praised it. The computer was Deep Blue by IBM
0:40 "Grandmaster vs computer", "Super Blue", "First Player to lose a computer" Well, that's just movie version of happened in 1997 where Grandmaster Gary Kasparov lost to Deep Blue.
@@TheModeler99 this is a a movie that came out in the year 2000. The perception then was that humans were supposed to be better at the game because the concept of computers playing chess was still in its infancy in the 80s and early 90s and were very weak. Suddenly in 1996, Deep Blue - a computer, defeated the then world champion Garry Kasparov. People then also laughed at the loss bcoz they never new how good computers are and will get in the future. So it makes sense why they may have laughed. However, I’m pretty sure no one will laugh now since there is no person who can defeat the strongest computer. Maybe they can barely draw games.
@@mohitmohan7375 they’ll still claim people “beat” computers, but I assume that’s because the computer gms are playing against are “set” or just not well done enough and only telling it to perceive a set number of moves (either ahead or set what can be played on each turn) I say this because that Swedish Karl prodigy guy (I’m not that into chess) I remember them saying he was beating computers or something
Everyone knows that if he was really playing against a machine that can calculate 200 million moves a second, it would have been a genocide instead of a battle Lol.
Thats probably because of Placebo He thinked He Got stepped and Adrenalin and some shit rushed in his Body and then He falled to the ground because He thinked it and ive you get stabbed most times you dont feel the pain
To when you get stabbed in the neck really fast you dont realize you got stabbed First you dont feeling any pain you can feel the blood coming out very much and then you loose all your grip depends on which side of the neck you get hit when the right your whole arm and feet feel like paralysed and you fall to the ground ive you loose more blood then you cant hold your neck anymore because you are to weak You hear a strong ringing in your head or other sounds its getting louder and louder and then you pass out black out there is minimal chance to save you then but it is possible
for someone who absolutely loves chess, seeing more movies having chess as a thriller, horror, or etc main theme for the movie is so interesting! the interpretations are really creative :)
As someone who loves chess this movie was very hard to watch! The king moves INTO check to save the Queen, instead of the Queen simply taking the rook?
Only in Japan would losing a game of chess be so humiliating that they would quit chess altogether, change their identity out of shame and become a drunk hobo.
Seriously finally a good ending wasn't expecting a good ending after seeing such a good ending I was literally soooo happy. Hats off to the director and the person who bring up the concept
@@user-hb3Ee6hhcM they would need to clean it for either more scenes or more movies and it could be permanently dirty so they don't want to take risks also there's a time constraint as it's a low budget movie they don't have time to do it

This is the 2nd part of a Japanese anthology film. First one is a horror episode, 3rd one is a comedy, and the last one I think is a romance sci-fi. Overall a great film, and it introduced me to the awesomeness of non-hollywood content since I watched it years ago. This recap makes me want to rewatch the film again. Thanks !!
It's not a movie. It's a series called 世にも奇妙な物語, which I happen to be a fan of. Only 2 episodes are released each year and they each normally have 5 stories, each with a duration of about 20 minutes. They're all completely unrelated stories except for the fact they follow the one central theme of the episode. The stories are all introduced by Story Teller Tamori, who weaves the central theme in between stories to connect them. @@atkinsontan257
In 1995, Garry Kasparov, the World Champion at that time, played against a chess engine called "Deep Blue" and lost. There was also a beef after that game because of a move that the engine had played that doesn't do anything but to throw away their advantage (which an engine wouldn't do in any matter) and because of that, Kasparov said that he was playing against another GM and not in fact with "Deep Blue". The first scene makes a reference to that moment supposedly when humans couldn't top no longer chess engines. But they're not god like as 200 million moves in a second lol. Stockfish 14 has like 3500 chess rating in matter of strenght and the world record is around 2882 owned by the current world chess champion Magnus Carlsen. Also, it is very common to see super grandmasters playing the move the engine would suggest (with depth in calculation) as we had a game in the last world tournament (which has been closed today) that is already considered to be the most accurate game ever played in a world championship match. (Of course because Magnus and Ian both were training using Stockfish lol) But i must add here that chess as we know is not common in Japanese culture, and you can clearly see that Japan doesn't feature any chess Grand-Masters. So it is already curious that this movie is Japanese lol. The second scene makes a reference to the american player Bobby Fischer, the former world champion who has been the world chess champion for 3 years and dissappeared. Bobby Fischer is known to be one of the best chess players of all time. Bobby Fischer stopped playing chess too and in interviews that can be found on YT of his old self, he said that he hated chess and chess had lost it's fun a long time ago because of engines and opening theories for literally every opening in the world. And because of this thinking, Bobby created a mode in chess called Fischer Random or Chess960 which mixes up the pieces dismissing entirely opening theories bringing chess to it's fully creative once again. Fischer died in 2008.

One of the first chess computers went off against Gary Kasparov, the greatest player of his time and gave him a massive competition, computers are able to analyze and think of moves ahead, if the position is +1 the computer will convert it to +11
I can barely keep up against stockfish level three and have never won a single round against stockfish level 4, stockfish 14 is already a nightmare
@@shubverse my nightmare is stockfish level 4
@@Xcal3113 stockfish level 3 is quite human like so i find it better for practice, it has moves which are more human and help a lot with my 1500 rated games
Haven't dipped into stockfish 4 but will do once i hit 1700
At last , he won the match by making an illegal move..... 😂
There was nothing else he could have done to win without his wife dying
6:46 This line in a clear calm voice is amazing
No pro player will be destroyed mentally just by a single loss game. Every chess player have already experienced enough humbling for a lifetime, and still seeking more on a daily basis
Humiliation by a lot of people can do that especially if the person suffers from depression before.
@@rathinasabapathy3796 well the premise of the movie itself is wrong. A chess player that never lose is simply impossible. I don't believe there's are chess player that never get scholared before
@@heartmint7364 well just imagine a person with above average skills. Having his life be somewhat at ease as they steamroll through challenges...
Until they've met a wall that they just can't seem to climb. The person has never struggled before in his life, meanwhile his peers (who struggled through the challenges that he steamrolled) are slowly climbing up the wall as they're used to struggles, while our guy here doesn't seem to make any progress at all...
The last part may not do anything about the movie, but you get the point.
@@4GRJ i completely understand what you're saying. But as i said earlier, the premise of the movie itself is wrong. Even the World Champion still losing game on a daily basis in chess
@@heartmint7364 Well they still have the liberty to make that up. For instance (sorry if this is silly) in the Original Beyblade anime, there’s a character that has never lost to anyone in ANY game. So once he’s beaten in the show, he sinks into insanity, not unlike Akira does
What confuses me is, I thought the King is never really "killed" but it just reaches check mate, meaning Akira's life shouldn't have ever been in danger.
More than that, putting the king into some position just to be taken by some other piece is an illegal move, so you just lose instantly
Yeah, the game ends when the king cannot escape imminent death, not when it is captured.
That's the thing, Akira made the illegal move to move his king into Checkmate position, which is impossible, this is the reason the computer Super Blue "malfunctioned"
They traumatized him to get over his trauma?!?!
Old man use trauma x 2! (Trauma x 2 was very effective)
No, Akira Have DEPRESSION
And The Idea Is, To Give His Brain PTSD..... So His Brain Forget About The Depression He's Suffering
(Depression Makes Him Lost His Willpower To Life ,, Trauma Actually Scare Him AND FORCE Him To Keep Moving To Avoid Something He Afraid Of)
(At Least This Is What I Catch,
It's Possibly A Joke... But This Method Is Actually A Thing, And Quite Effective One)
Yes
"...So, to help him get better, this crowd of people traumatized him, for life."
Narrator always on top
Narrator is a top 😳😳😳
"a chess player who has never lost a game in his life" thats just a load of balls man
Lol, as someone said, moving king to block for queen is an illegal move to begin with, but the movie just did what the movie wanted
@@aaabbb-py5xd "the movie did what the movie wanted" lmao
@@aaabbb-py5xd Did you watch the video? It literally addresses that and is why the Super Blue shut off.
This story is similar to actual story of former world champion Garry Kasparov . But the difference is , first he won by 4-2 and then he lost by 3.5-2.5 and also he didn't quit chess , rather he praised it. The computer was Deep Blue by IBM

Haha I know this one.

It isn’t he is just a sore loser
@@enderking1651 But they said people made fun of him after he lost
@@TheModeler99 this is a a movie that came out in the year 2000. The perception then was that humans were supposed to be better at the game because the concept of computers playing chess was still in its infancy in the 80s and early 90s and were very weak. Suddenly in 1996, Deep Blue - a computer, defeated the then world champion Garry Kasparov. People then also laughed at the loss bcoz they never new how good computers are and will get in the future. So it makes sense why they may have laughed.
However, I’m pretty sure no one will laugh now since there is no person who can defeat the strongest computer. Maybe they can barely draw games.
@@mohitmohan7375 they’ll still claim people “beat” computers, but I assume that’s because the computer gms are playing against are “set” or just not well done enough and only telling it to perceive a set number of moves (either ahead or set what can be played on each turn) I say this because that Swedish Karl prodigy guy (I’m not that into chess) I remember them saying he was beating computers or something
Because the machine isn't human and it did his job better than him or any other human. If a robot took your job you would probably understand.
“Me” “mum can we get squid game?”

akira when rook stabs: doesnt feel pain but still falls into the ground
also akira: E M O T I O N A L D A M A G E
cringe
@@aidanprinsloo5473 f***ing ppl who can't just be honest
Thats probably because of Placebo He thinked He Got stepped and Adrenalin and some shit rushed in his Body and then He falled to the ground because He thinked it and ive you get stabbed most times you dont feel the pain
To when you get stabbed in the neck really fast you dont realize you got stabbed First you dont feeling any pain you can feel the blood coming out very much and then you loose all your grip depends on which side of the neck you get hit when the right your whole arm and feet feel like paralysed and you fall to the ground ive you loose more blood then you cant hold your neck anymore because you are to weak
You hear a strong ringing in your head or other sounds its getting louder and louder and then you pass out black out there is minimal chance to save you then but it is possible
Placebo effect
for someone who absolutely loves chess, seeing more movies having chess as a thriller, horror, or etc main theme for the movie is so interesting! the interpretations are really creative :)
We’re can I see this
As someone who loves chess this movie was very hard to watch! The king moves INTO check to save the Queen, instead of the Queen simply taking the rook?
bro this movie made me wanna slide off the empire state building. are you sure you watched the same video?
6:45 made me laugh SO GODDAMN HARD LMFAO
10:22 it probably couldnt comprehend because it was literally the king sacrifice move which is an illegal move
The supercomputer blew up, cuz Akira made an illegal move. nice
"Akira is tripping balls"
*muah* PERFECT
Ahh yes the famous "To help him get better, these group of people traumatised him for life" ending, best ending ever.
The ending, it gives me satisfaction way beyond happiness, maybe I should watch more of these movies
Agreed...loved the ending
Only in Japan would losing a game of chess be so humiliating that they would quit chess altogether, change their identity out of shame and become a drunk hobo.
The car moving diagonally is wild.
"So to help him, this group of people traumatized him for life."
"Akira is the first person in the world to lose to a computer"

I thought it was an illegal move to put your king in a deliberate checkmate Position.
It is, that move was just for the sake of the film
Only if its protected by plot armor
It is, hence why it broke the computer, since why would the computer's programmers account for an illegal position?
@@theuseraccountname A checkmate is basically forcing an "illegal position".
It is. But they wanted him to do that so the sniper didn't shoot him.

Me: Mom I want squid games
Mom: we have squid games at home
Squid games at home:

"Akira was tirpping balls"
This feels like Squid Game, but less deadly, more mature, and way more wholesome.
What a heart touching moment I didnt even have a chance how Akira won😂
Seriously finally a good ending wasn't expecting a good ending after seeing such a good ending I was literally soooo happy. Hats off to the director and the person who bring up the concept
i really loved the ending! accepting one's mistakes without hesitations is a true winner of all winners 🏆
“So to help him get better, this crowd of people traumatized him for life.” 😂 I laughed so hard at this.
Well of course the computer couldn't comprehend the move. It's an illegal move!
1:22 Ain't no body gonna talk about how come Akira's suit are still clean even though he have been on street homeless for 3 years? 😅
Now i just realised😅
They didn't have the budget to make the suit dirty
@@user-hb3Ee6hhcM they would need to clean it for either more scenes or more movies and it could be permanently dirty so they don't want to take risks also there's a time constraint as it's a low budget movie they don't have time to do it
@@Lxyaltys They could have filmed that scene last
I think that the things that happened before the "special" chess game where not so horrible to make him hate chess so much.
But after *THAT* I think he would actually not be able to even look at the bathroom floor without having seizures.
One of the only Mystery Recap episodes without a sad or depressing ending.
Hands up to the people who rigged the car to move diagonally
this is literally the other version of squid game but with a happy ending.

This is the 2nd part of a Japanese anthology film. First one is a horror episode, 3rd one is a comedy, and the last one I think is a romance sci-fi. Overall a great film, and it introduced me to the awesomeness of non-hollywood content since I watched it years ago. This recap makes me want to rewatch the film again. Thanks !!
WHERE CAN I WATCH THIS MOVIE ?
It's not a movie. It's a series called 世にも奇妙な物語, which I happen to be a fan of. Only 2 episodes are released each year and they each normally have 5 stories, each with a duration of about 20 minutes. They're all completely unrelated stories except for the fact they follow the one central theme of the episode. The stories are all introduced by Story Teller Tamori, who weaves the central theme in between stories to connect them. @@atkinsontan257
In 1995, Garry Kasparov, the World Champion at that time, played against a chess engine called "Deep Blue" and lost. There was also a beef after that game because of a move that the engine had played that doesn't do anything but to throw away their advantage (which an engine wouldn't do in any matter) and because of that, Kasparov said that he was playing against another GM and not in fact with "Deep Blue". The first scene makes a reference to that moment supposedly when humans couldn't top no longer chess engines. But they're not god like as 200 million moves in a second lol. Stockfish 14 has like 3500 chess rating in matter of strenght and the world record is around 2882 owned by the current world chess champion Magnus Carlsen. Also, it is very common to see super grandmasters playing the move the engine would suggest (with depth in calculation) as we had a game in the last world tournament (which has been closed today) that is already considered to be the most accurate game ever played in a world championship match. (Of course because Magnus and Ian both were training using Stockfish lol)
But i must add here that chess as we know is not common in Japanese culture, and you can clearly see that Japan doesn't feature any chess Grand-Masters. So it is already curious that this movie is Japanese lol.
The second scene makes a reference to the american player Bobby Fischer, the former world champion who has been the world chess champion for 3 years and dissappeared. Bobby Fischer is known to be one of the best chess players of all time. Bobby Fischer stopped playing chess too and in interviews that can be found on YT of his old self, he said that he hated chess and chess had lost it's fun a long time ago because of engines and opening theories for literally every opening in the world. And because of this thinking, Bobby created a mode in chess called Fischer Random or Chess960 which mixes up the pieces dismissing entirely opening theories bringing chess to it's fully creative once again. Fischer died in 2008.
Which game from Nepo-Carlsen was the most accurate, please?
