Demon Slayer

In shogi, Demon Slayer or Demon Killer (鬼殺し onigoroshi) is a trap opening initiated by Black that characteristically advances their left knight blocking their bishop's diagonal. Later moves attempt an attack using a further advanced knight and also possibly against White's left silver. If defended against properly by White, then it puts Black in an unfavorable position.
