Шаблон:Infobox shogi professional Шаблон:Nihongo is a Japanese professional shogi player ranked 8-dan.

Early life, amateur shogi and apprentice professional

Eisaku Tomioka was born in Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture on May 19, 1964.[1] He learned how to play shogi as a kindergartener from his father, and was the best player in his class as a fifth-grade elementary school student. Looking for stronger competition, he decided to apply for the Japan Shogi Association's apprentice school.[2] Tomioka entered the apprentice school at the rank of 6-kyū under the guidance of shogi professional Nobuyuki Ōuchi in November 1978, was promoted to 1-dan in 1981, and finally obtained full professional status and the rank of 4-dan in December 1984.[3]

Shogi professional

Tomioka finished the 81st Meijin Ranking League season with a record of 2 wins and 8 loses in Class C2.[4] Since his result earned him a second relegation point,[4] he decided to become "Free class" player instead of risking the automatic relegation that happens when a player receives three relegation points in Class C2.[4][5]

Tomioka became the 61st shogi professional to reach 600 career wins on November 2, 2023.[6]
