Both FUJII and YOKOYAMA are "Furibisha" players . But FUJII often uses "Yagura" opening recently , and YOKOYAMA rarely selects "Ai Furibisha" .

YOKOYAMA's 2nd move 2.p-2f shown that he selected "Ibisha" in this game to decline "Ai Furibisha" . He pushed his Rook's Pawn to P-2e , to avoid FUJII's "Uso Yagura" .
Replying P-2e , FUJII moved B-3c and he ranged his Rook to 2b , the game became Gote "Mukai Bisha" . FUJII didn't make "Mino gakoi" but moved G-7b . This formation has a posibility to advance "Anaguma gakoi" .
