Finally a shogi problem but only one shogi poster? Not nice. To answer that question:

I don't know the rules of shogi, but shouldn't just moving the one in the center diagonally upwards to the right be the correct move?

Not quite, because then the king can just take it. As for rules, note that the flyer gives you the moves of the three pieces in use (king, pawn, and tokin (promoted pawn, moves like the gold general). They forgot to translate that you have a pawn in hand and it is a three move mate.

Here is the answer:

Spoiler

P*12 K-21 P-32+#
Or more descriptive:
1. Pawn drop on the head of the king, protected by the tokin.
2. King moves to the side, the only safe square because of the tokin.
3. The other pawn moves forward and promotes to a tokin, also protected by the other tokin, making checkmate!

This is a thematic problem for her, because she has often said that she loves the promoted pawn.
