Indeed, it implements the counter-strike rule for single captures. However, the Soaring Eagle and Horned Falcon can move again after stepping in certain directions.
Upon further testing, it seems that the counter-strike rule is not being invoked when a Lion is captured and then the capturer moves away. For example, in this game in the I.D., after promoting the Dragons on h9 and e4, if Black's Soaring Eagle captures White's Lion and then moves to another square afterward, the counter-strike rule will not be invoked and the AI will capture Black's Lion with White's Phoenix.

The same thing happens in LiShogi, since the same behavior is taking place. I have already notified them about what I have found. One of the developers apparently thinks non-lion refers to non-Lion moves though, rather than non-Lion pieces.
