Hi,

Only promoted Pawn has a 'gana' (Japanese letter) whose pronunciation is 'to'
whereas others have Chinese characters.

Any particular reason?

I got to have a chance to ask a Japanese shogi player, whose
background is Japanese literature, about it

Hiragana (= Japanese letters) are very simplified form of cursive
Kanzi (=Chinese characters)

the hiragana pronunciated as 'to' is nothing but the very simplified
form of cursive Kanzi 'gold'

therefore, promoted silver, promoted bishop, promoted knight, and
promoted pawn : all these are 'gold' in their meanings with different
pronunciations.

dajava,
