Naruto Shippuuden 82 has shogi scenes which I think is the longest insertion in one episode. The following page briefly illustrates the content of the episode.
Marvz18: Naruto Shippuden Episode 82
Shikamaru was not there to join the funeral. His out there greiving on its own. He went home and sits beside the pond still greiving when hi father ask him to play shogi. As he and his father play shogi, his father talks about Akatski and Asuma. Shikamaru can't hide it anymore and shows his sadness. His father told him to let it out as the first step. At dawn when his finally tired of crying. He picks up the shogi board and the pieces and saw the "king" piece. Then picks up the other pieces and play alone until he figures out a plan.
I wrote my interpretation about the position on the board in the dawn in Animesuki Naruto Forum. If you are interested, please click the linked page below and read the #54;

The shogi board that Shikamaru's dad is looking at the morning after mourning (nice!) shows a white knight threatening both the black bishop and the black rook.
Get it?
I was curious.
