Weekly Challenge 64: Quickest Shogi Checkmates

Create a study which shows a game sequence where a checkmate is found in the fewest number of moves. Do this for both Shogi and Mini Shogi in separate study chapters. Smallest aggregate number of moves wins.

Adjudication Criteria:
1. Fewest moves (plies) across both chapters
2. Earliest Entry
Closing Date: Monday 1st July 1200 UTC+0

Additional Restrictions:
- Put the number of moves for each chapter in the forum post
- Do not edit the forum post after posting. This will invalidate your entry
- If the study chapter's moves don't match what is claimed in the forum post then the entry will be invalid

If you wish to improve your study and submit a better entry, please clone your original study into a new one, make changes in the new study and make a new forum post with your new totals and new study link.

Can I take a game of shogi from one player's studio and create this game in my studio, and a game of mini shogi in my own?
