They’re not even playing gomoku. I have no idea what this is.

That could still be a very valid pic of a go game between beginners.

I just watched this episode with my partner
and we were laughing when the more experienced player congratulated the beginner after they won, and said: “No one has beaten me at this game in years!”
And we were like, “He’s probably 20k or so, but he’s the only Go player on that ship.” “That’s a very realistic explanation.”

One of many kifu that appear in PAPERS, a short abstract animated film by Satoh Yoshinao (1991). You can watch it on YouTube.
This game is played by Yoda Norimoto and Cho Chikun at 1991-01-30 during the 16th Japanese Meijin.
Black (Yoda) wins by 0.5 with 5.5 Komi.
Strictly not a movie or a TV show, but a book.
In Robert van Gulik’s Judge Dee series the book titled The Chinese Lake Murders feature the game of go (chapter 5).
This strange go problem is shown in chapter 5.
