Basic rules are the same as western chess. The major difference is that you can reuse all the pieces you captured from the opponent.

 

[Red5]

do you have a website could explain it more ?

Here is a site that might help
Shogi (将棋): Japanese Chess – The Chess Variant Pages
I do have a Shogu board myself and have played my brother at it (he beat me), but I am still learning.
As a normal chess player it takes some getting used to as game play differs due to the ability to capture and drop pieces back onto the board. In Shogi pieces are never completely taken out of the game, unlike normal chess.

Yes, it is probably so, at least, from England and Japan.

Try the following link again.

How to play Shogi(将棋) -Lesson#1- Introduction

Or just google "How to play Shogi" and/or "HIDETCHI".

The greatest point of Hidetchi's videos is that he tries to invite all people to help the project such as translation to English. He says that even some professional players show their interest on the project for more shogi in other countries.
