In chess the situation is resolved after three repetitions of position with the same side to move, in effect this is a way of avoiding the situation continuing indefinitely. In this case in loop chess the situation will not continue indefinitely so there would be no logic to call such a case a draw. Shogi re-uses captured pieces and has done so for 400 years, this gives shogi a species of seniority for these kind of cases, in shogi the number of pieces must also repeat.
